History of the Hebrew Alphabet
Found this interesting video (& series) by Douglas Vogt on the Hebrew Alphabet. I'm linking this particular video because I see some potential connections to the occult, and wanted to spur some discussion & see what you all thought!
There's a few videos in the series and he has some other work that branches off of this series and ties into some astrophysics, conspiracies, and such- if y'all are into that I do recommend checking it out as well.
