אב

ab

Gematria value: 1+2 = 3

Phonetic : ab (as in cab)

Strongs No: 2
Instances in the Tanakh: 9

2. Father's father; grandfather, reference to paternal lineage as a inheritance.

אב

ab

Gematria value: 1+2 = 3

Phonetic : 'ehb; abe (as in babe)

Strongs No: 3
Instances in the Tanakh: 2

Etymology: a lexemic contraction (i.e. shortened form of a word) from Strongs #24 Awbib אביב, the Phoenician root for "fresh grain, such as barely or corn". This is the first letter א and the LAST Letter &#1489, not the second letter of the word.

1. freshness of the essence of the father as the unrefined substance of the child.
2. the rejuvination of the masculinity within the male child, as it subsides within the aging father.
3. the passion of youth, as a unrefined form of the qualities of his father. (i.e. "genes")

Analysis: Aleph is the ox is the first letter of the Hebrew Alphabet, while Beth is the second. Thus the strength of the אב Awb is a force which is communicated from the father, the אב Ab, to the son, the בן Ben. This is reducing the word Awbib אביב.

אב

ab

Gematria value: 1+2 = 3

Phonetic : eb; eb (as in ebb of a tide)

Strongs No: 4
Instances in the Tanakh: 3

Etymology: corresponding to Strongs #24 Awbib [/b]אביב, the Phoenician root for "fresh grain, such as barely or corn". This is the first letter א and the Second Letter &#1489, not the LAST letter of the word.

1. fruit
2. fresh
3. young

Analysis: Compared exactly to Strongs #3, but with a emphasis on plant life, not animal life or human life. Aleph is the ox is the first letter of the Hebrew Alphabet, while Beth is the second. Thus the strength of the אב Awb is a force which is communicated from the father, the אב Ab, to the son, the בן Ben. This is reducing the word Awbib אביב.
