The chapter Isaiah 40 begins with the words “Comfort, comfort my people” a prophecy of comfort and renewal, inscribed continuously in micro calligraphy by Ellen Miller Braun using Hebrew letter numerology, “gematria.” Verses 1-30 of Isaiah 40 are written thirteen times, equaling the Hebrew word for “love”-“ahava.” This love for Israel creates the bold sky, soaring cliffs, and tree-covered valley. The number thirteen becomes very spiritual and reflects G-d’s love for His chosen people: “…Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain: and the glory of the L-rd shall be revealed….” Showing us how strong G-d’s love is by granting miracles both hidden and revealed.
“Comfort, comfort”- in Hebrew:”Nachamu, nachamu,” – has the equivalence in Hebrew letter numerology, “gematria,” of 208. Verse 31 of Isaiah 40 is written 208 times, creating the eagle with glorious strength from wing-tip to wing-tip. We again see the emphasis placed on G-d’s love, protection and comfort.
“…but they that wait upon the L-rd shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary and they shall walk and not faint.” The outstretched wings serve as a canopy enveloping the Jewish people in love and strength. G-d will gather “the lamb with His arm, and carry them in His bosom…” “Behold, the L-rd G-d will come with might, and his arm shall rule for him.”
