The first Hebraic writing was pictorial, followed by Paleo (ancient), and now modern.

In looking at the pictograph, you can see that "a" and "b" are represented by "head" and "house". In Hebrew, Ab means Father, and the father is the "head of the house." Son is "ben", represented by the "b" (house) and "n" (seed), and the seed of the house is definitely the son. The letter "g" is gimel, which represents the foot in pictorial and the front half of a camel in Modern Hebrew. "Gimel" is where the word "camel" comes from. These are just a few examples.

Shalom.
