Teivah – Coincidence or Afflatus
Question
The letters of light are infused with creative power from the Most High.
When Noah built the ark (tevah: Tav~Bet~Hei), did the letters foretell the impending peril that came about?
Camouflaged in tevah (ark) is bathah: (Bet~Tav~Hei), meaning desolation, destruction, end, waste. Is this coincidence or afflatus?
Answers
Despite the fact that there is no coincidence in Judaism I am not familiar with any source that makes the connection between the two words.
