TETRAGRAMMATON

By arranging the four letters of the Great Name, , (I H V H), in the form of the
Pythagorean Tetractys, the 72 powers of the Great Names of God are manifested. The key
to the problem is as follows:

En disposant les quatre lettres du grand nom, , (I H V H), sous la forme des ttraktys
pythagoriciennes; les 72 pouvoirs des grands noms de Dieu sont manifests. La cl du
problme est la suivante:
The Tetragrammaton, or the four-lettered Name of God, written thus , is pronounce
Jehovah. The first letter is , Yod, the Germ, the Life, the Flame, the Cause, the One, and
the most fundamental of the Jewish phallic emblems. Its numerical value is 10, and it is to
be considered as the 1 containing the 10. In the Qabbalah it is declared that the a Yod is in
reality three Yods, of which the first is the beginning, the second is the center, and the third
is the end. Its throne is the Sephira Chochmah (according to Ibn Gebirol, Kether), from
which it goes forth to impregnate Binah, which is the first , He. The result of this union is
Tiphereth, which is the Vau, whose power is 6 and which symbolizes the six members of
the Lesser Adam. The final , He, is Malchuth, the Inferior Mother, partaking in part of the
potencies of the Divine Mother, the first He. By placing the four letters of the
Tetragrammaton in a vertical column, a figure closely resembling the human body is
produced, with Yod for the head, the first He for the arms and shoulders, Vau for the trunk of
the body, and the final He for the hips and legs. If the Hebrew letters be exchanged for their
English equivalents, the form is not materially changed or the analogy altered. It is also
extremely significant that by inserting the letter , Shin, in the middle of the name Jehovah,
the word Jehoshua, or Jesus, is formed thus:
