The Hebrew alphabet was examined for unique sets of letters
without repeat based on interrelated common denominator relationships
in the ordinal (1-22) and numerical values (1-400), and totals
of the two values (2-422). The relationships used were those found
in the word Israel, observed to have a high incidence of letter
combinations summing to totals with common denominators of 11
in the three valuing systems. The basic interrelated pattern in
the ordinal values spanned the alphabet only for the factors 11
and 12. The two sets of Hebrew letters selected were five letters
based on 11 and four letters based on 12, and were the letters
of the Hebrew words Israel and Zion, respectively. The common
denominator relationships were most complex in the totals where
11 of 31 possible combinations taken 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 at-a-time
for "Israel" were divisible by 11 and 7 out of 15 possible
combinations taken 1, 2, 3, and 4 at-a-time for "Zion"
were divisible by 12. For "Israel" and "Zion"
the number of combinations evenly divisible by the given factor
was 3.8 and 5.1 standard deviations, respectively, above the mean
of that obtained from random Hebrew proper nouns. Israel was shown
to be associated with 11 and Zion with 12. That the name of the
nation and its eternal capital are both central to the Hebrew
alphabet displays the Creator's wisdom.
