This is the literary representation of the Holy Verses with punctuation, spaces...
Upon clicking on the link above, appear the Hebrew Words " ספר עולם " ("Sefer Olam"), which are not part of the actual Text, but represent the "Title" ("Book Eternal”, or “Eternal Book"). It is needed to click on these, to enter the actual Text.
Each of the 12 Verses (expressing the 12 Steps of the Eternal Book) is preceded by a Hebrew Letter (or combination of Letters) standing for the numerals 1 to 12; these are not part of the actual Text, but appear simply to indicate the number of the Verse.
The “Primordial Verse” (א הויה בראשית, A HAWAYA BEREŠIT, translated as (1) BEING (In the Beginning) ), which represents the Unmanifested State of BEING in the Eternal Instant, prior to and after the Manifestation of the 12 Steps of the Eternal Book (and which can be seen as the Center of the Circle of Time) also starts with a Letter representing a Numeral: the א Alef, standing for the Number ONE; this א Alef is represented in parenthesis, to emphasize the Dimension of Unmanifestation it indicates and to distinguish it from the א Alef preceding the Verse of the First Step. It is an actual part of the Text, counted among the total number of Letters. It is also actually a Word in itself (Word of One Letter), counted among the total number of Words.
