Yod

Hand · Arm · Deed

"The letter Yod is the smallest in the aleph-bet — a single stroke representing the hand or arm at work. Isaiah 53 asks to whom the arm of Yahuah has been revealed. The answer is the Servant. Yahushua is that arm made visible — and His name begins with the Yod."

Concept — The Arm of Yahuah Revealed

Isaiah 53 opens with a question: who has believed the report, and to whom has the arm of Yahuah been revealed? The chapter then answers its own question — the arm of Yahuah is the Suffering Servant, the one despised and rejected, the one who bore the sin of many. Yahushua is the working hand of the Father made flesh. And Yahushua Himself confirmed it — He and the Father were always working together, the Son doing only what He saw the Father do. The Yod, the smallest letter, begins His name for a reason.

Isaiah 53:1 "Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of Yahuah been revealed?" — The arm of Yahuah is the Suffering Servant described in the verses that follow.
John 5:17 "My Father has been working until now, and I have been working." — His own words.
Matthew 5:18 "For assuredly I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot (yod) or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled." — Yahushua protecting the smallest letter — the one that begins His own name.
