Hebrew letters

Dreidel side symbols

Hebrew letters are the characters of the Hebrew alphabet, a writing system of 22 consonants used for Hebrew, Yiddish, and other Jewish languages.

The letters have numerical values and feature prominently in Jewish mysticism, where practitioners assign spiritual significance to their shapes and combinations.

Several letters—aleph, beth, gimel—have given names to concepts in mathematics and science.
