John 3:16 wordplay - drmlanc - 10-17-2003

Stephen Silver:

The unique "word-play" in Yukhanan 3:16, is between [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]0nl9l[/font] "world", and [font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]Ml9ld[/font] "eternal". This is exactly the Hebraic thought of okug "olam", "Ayin-Lamed-Vav-Mem", "eternity/world". I have used the "Drogulin Font", for the Hebrew.

[font=Estrangelo (V1.1)]Fkrwbw 0ml4[/font]
