Amazing, isn't it, that the vav's gematria is both 6 and also 13, when there are exactly 613 mitzvos in the Torah? No coincidence I am sure, as there are none in this world. Amazing that adding "aleph" thru "vav" brings us to 441, emes, the emes of the 613 ! new math: 441=613 :) Thank you for this lecture.

The letter Vav bt Aaron L.Raskin
I am fairly new to the Jewish Community. I found that short lesson on the letter Vav very interesting to me.
Is there a video that he may have that he diccuses all of the letters of the Hebrew Alpha-bet?
Maybe there is something that can be downloaded?

Letters Of Light
Having Thyroid problems it takes me a long time to absorb things but I shall write down each meaning in a notebook then go over ALL of this piece by piece then embed this on my blog to educate people as I did with your interview on your view of Heaven. So much we take for granted. This is amazing.. Thanks.
