The 22 Letters of Creation

BS"D

The 22 Letters of Creation:



These are the same 22 letters which G-d used to write the Torah and to create the entire world.

The primary method of the great kabblist Rabbi Avraham Aboulafia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Abulafia was to use various meditations on the letters and their tzerufim (manipulations) to reach great heights in the kabbala, in understanding the Names of G-d, and even in achieving prophecy. We can see from him and from many other of our Chachamim, the extreme holiness and power of the Hebrew Letters.

Rebbe shimon bar Yochai teaches us in the Holy Zohar that G-d created His letters and delighted with them for 2,000 years in the heavens before even using them to write the Torah. We are also taught that the very world we live in and experience today was actually created with those very same letters of the Torah.

Written on the parchment, they are described as "Black Fire on White Fire." (Even Ozzy couldn't come up with a song like that!)

So here below is a video clip where you can enjoy watching how a real sofer writes out every single letter of the 22 letters of creation using black fire ink, written on white fire parchment. 

So sit back, relax and enjoy the meditation!

Yehoshua
