  2. Fun with Jewish mysticism...

    "...Fishwick points out that many Latin-speaking Jews lived in Pompeii and were known for their interest in cryptic symbols. The concept of Alpha and Omega can be traced back to Judiasm, and the letters "aleph" and "tav" were used in the Talmud as symbols of totality. Fishwick also highlights the significance of the letter N, as Jews placed importance on the "Name"..."

  8. In the narrow space of self no prayer can flourish. ‘He who prays in suffering because of the melancholy that dominates him and thinks that he prays in fear of God, or he who prays in joy because of the brightness of his mood and thinks he prays in love of God, his prayer is nothing. For this fear is only melancholy and this love is only empty joy.’
    —Martin Buber, Werke 3, Writings on Hasidism, The Life of the Hasidim, p29
