Language & etymology
What the name means.
El means God; Elyon means most high, related to height and exaltation. Melchizedek uses this title in Genesis 14.
Gematria
The numeric value.
Aleph 1 + Lamed 30 + Ayin 70 + Lamed 30 + Yod 10 + Vav 6 + Nun 50 = 197
Numeric value is a traditional interpretive practice; it is not the word’s etymology and does not establish doctrine.
Paleo-Hebrew character
A devotional reflection.
These ancient Hebrew-script forms accompany a devotional meditation, not a historical translation or proof of etymology. Letter-picture associations are interpretive and do not establish doctrine.
