Looking through some of the fragments from the DDS I noticed that while many are in a more modern Hebrew (there are some in Aramaic and some totally in Ancient Hebrew) that those that have the more modern do so in all but on thing
The Tetragrammaton. The Holy name of God.
Any thoughts on why they felt it should be in this earlier form?
It's in what's considered Middle Paleo form (there is an early more pictorial form and a late form that is very close to modern Hebrew.)
It is the middle version that is used in some of the DDS parchments.
I also found this of interest
The yad, or yod is a hand attached to a forearm and part of the upper arm
The kaph is an open palm showing just the fingers
Messiah did not have nails driven through his hands as they would just have torn through. Despite the painted depictions of the crucifixion conveying that. They had to have been driven through the wrist where there is a juncture that will sustain between the bones there.
So it is very curious that there are two letters that represent a hand, one the fingers or an open hand and the other with the hand and arm (including the wrist).
