The earliest characters originally consisted of symbols (frst column), from which the today's digital signs originated. Five of them have special end forms (e.g., Kaph). The letters Alef (1) and Ayin (26) have a sound that does not occur in our language, so their pronunciation isin brackets. Although the Syriac (Syt; Aramaic) language is similar, it has produced completely new letters over the centuries (see Peshitta) The ancient Greek alphabet has 27 letters. In addition to the 24 main letters (from Alpha to Omega) in which the NT was written, there were 3 more characters in the early form of the Greek alphabet; Le. in the alphabetic ("Milesian”) system of Greek numerals: Digamma* (F, F;[wl; since the Middle Ages Stigma in the appearance of a snake: C, ¢; NV 6), Goppa (NV 80) and Sampi (NV 900). Both alphabets have together 22+27=49 (77) letters. The whole Bible (OT and NT) was written on 22+27=49 (7x7) scrolls Abbroviations: (OV): Ordinal value, the order ofthe letters in the alphabet. (NV}: numerical value (Gematria~ Interpretation of words by numbers). (P): Pronunciation or Transcription. The letters may look different in some sources because they are often shown in multiple fonts, eg, Arial (ARL) of Times New Roman (TNR). In Greek, there are uppercase or lowercase letters
