Language & etymology
What the name means.
Esh means fire, an ordinary Hebrew noun. Deuteronomy uses consuming fire as an image of God’s holiness; not every occurrence of esh is a divine title.
Gematria
The numeric value.
Aleph 1 + Shin 300 = 301
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.
