In this episode, AK discusses the lessons of the Hebrew letter Vav through the lens of a Boy Scout Manual. AK introduces listeners to the Fool’s Survival Guide, for Love.
The station of Vav teaches the listener that sometimes the covenant can be a bond of love. The sixth card of the Major Arcana is the Lovers. This podcast episode expresses the archetype of the Lovers through the Torah’s story of Isaac and Rebekah.
Rebekah is a major Matriarch in the Torah. She is the wife of Isaac. She becomes the mother of Esau and Jacob. And Jacob later becomes the pattern for Israel.
Through Vav, Rebekah acts as the sacred connector in the story of Isaac. The love story of Isaac and Rebecca allow the covenant of God with humanity to continue forward.
Vav is the nail.
Vav is the hook.
Jesus said to his disciples that he would make them fishers of men. Why are fishing metaphors so often associated with Love?
Join us in the Journey of the Fool as we travel through the Hebrew Aleph Bet. Learning the lessons each letter teaches us, as we go.
