A little gematria I stumbled on.

The other day, I noticed something mildly interesting:
Take Aleph-Shin and throw a Yod in the middle, and you get אִישׁ, AISh, Man/Husband. Take Aleph-Shin and throw a Heh on the end, you get אִשָׁה, AShah, Woman/Wife.
I just thought that was interesting, the idea of the masculine and feminine elements of the divine name, YaH, each get added to ASh (a fire), to make husband and wife.

I agree very cool but, er, I'm pretty sure I included it in my translation and annotation of the Sefer Yetirah years ago <vbg>.
(I'll have to look.)
AH, here we go. SY 3:7. "He made the letter Alef king over Breath, and He bound unto it a Crown ; and He combined one with the other. He formed with them Air in the universe, the temperate in the year, and the chest in the soul: the male by AMSh and the female by AShM." Footnote: “Man,” AYSh, ish, is created by AMSh; while “woman,” ishah, AShH, is created by AShM. Meym, which was said in v. 4 to correspond to earth (in contrast to heaven) and in v. 6 to the belly (and thus, psycho-spiritually, to the Nefesh within which operate the de-sires and procreative energies), is converted, in man, to a Yod, and, in woman, to a Heh. It is in the lowest and most material expressions only that man and woman are thus differentiated.

Indeed--not a new idea, just new to me

I get amazed sometimes. How in the heck did this language come into being?
Angels seems a little too mythical, but then I remember there's that stuff that happens that just makes you shut your mouth, and I think... oh... Yeah, well... I, uh... see? There's... ah... a kind of "quality of intelligence"... and coincidence... that uh... well... over time can...
...
Angels.

Anybody got anything better?
