The
system of temurah known as Aiq Bekar divides the 22 letters of the Hebrew
alphabet into a grid of 9 chambers with their numerical values:
Sh L G R K B Q Y A
300 30 3 200 20 2 100 10 1
M S V K N H Th M D
600 60 6 500 50 5 400 40 4
Tz Tz T P P Ch N O Z
900 90 9 800 80 8 700 70 7
This
grid is then used as the template from which to permutate words, which are
either expanded or minimized.
In
Hebrew, the word for man is ADM, adam.
This is not an individual man, rather it represents humanity as a whole, mankind.
The Hebrew letters enumerate to the number 45.
Using
the Aiq Bekar grid, the word ADM may be permuted into the word AMTh (emeth),
which means Truth and has the value of 441.

Using
this system, the Kabalah indicates that Man embodies Truth, and that Truth is in
fact in Man.
The pentagram symbol also appears in Egyptian hieroglyphics, associated with the Goddess Sopdet, who was represented in the night sky by the brightest star, Sirius, the so called Dog Star in the constellation of Canis Major

I penned It down, until at last it came to be, For length and breadth, the bigness which you see.
