Through most of the New Testament Jesus calls God simply "Father." In Hebrew the word is "abba".
The word "abba" derives ultimately from one of the simplest words in one of the world's oldest languages, ancient Hebrew, or Aramaic. The root of "abba" is "av", the ancient Hebrew word for father. It is one of the simplest words in the world because it is formed from just two letters, and those two are the first two letters of the Hebrew alef-bet. Aleph and Bet (also spoken as vet), In the image above the letters are read from right to left. Alef looks like an "X" and bet (vet) looks like a backwards "C"
Jesus usually spoke in parables and metaphor, did this word have another hidden or secret meaning ? Probably.
What does the Aleph-Bet mean ?
In Hebrew and Aramaic these letters are also numbers. Aleph = One and Bet = Two.
Together they make three .... to be continued.

Thanks - I am trying to learn Hebrew so that I can go back and read the Bible as it was originally written.
