The Origin of Hebrew Alphabet From
Indus Script-The LMLK Seal As A
Rosetta Stone For The Indus Script
Abstract
The Harappan seals contain several linguistic symbols which
have not been properly understood so far. Several seals
contain vedic metrological terms,names of vedic
ornaments,metal names,names of people, places and gods etc.
My perception is that only a comprehensive study of ancient
vedic literature, temple legends ,vedic rites and rituals, and
vedic metrology alone can decipher the script symbols
satisfactorily.A brief attempt in this direction is made through
my different articles.
In the last articles we have confirmed the Indus script
readings based on the Narayanastra shot by Asvatthama,the
Kaurava commander-in-chief in the Kurukshetra war, by
the name of one of the samvatsaras in the 60 year Jupiter
cycle followed by the Harappans and found mentioned in
the seal L051a and by the Biblical story of Christ’s raising
of Lazarus four days after his death.
We have identified the story of Sudasa in the Rigveda and the
Traigarta and Trisiras in the Mahabharata.
In this article we are using the Hebrew lmlk seal as a rosetta
stone for reading the Indus script.

We have the Harappan inscription

saya(snake,bed,lizard;asya-of this,for this).

asva/aleph/alpha - ).Thus Aja-king/usha-

the zodiac.
The first asterism is Krittika/urja/surya/tritiya(third
tithi)/dRsya(view of the sun in the east).Dasra and Bharani are
the 26th and 27th asterisms and indicate the appearance of
twilight-asvidvaya in the northeast before actual sunrise.Miina
(Sinai) is hence the sun(king)’s house from where
udaya(u/va/ma-saya ;saya-

Linga-phallus,sinha-leo-deo denote agni as kamagni is
sexual fire bringing procreation.It is the somalata/somaraja/
samraja used for saya(sex)/yaja(sacrifice).Retas is
tejas(shine).Sun(agni) gives soma(tejas)/
samaya(varsha/hayana/samaya/syena) .
Linga(sinha/soma/hari/snake) emits retas(semen) that
produces praja(son,citizen)/tanaya(son).The tail of the Taur

arka(sun).Tail-ray-twilight-asvidvaya appears before the head-

dawn) of Anga(naga/agna/naka/kanaa-woman, Cana-John.2.1-

Hence we can conclude that yaja(sacrifice) is
jaya(wife,house;alaya-house,jaya-bharya-wife)/ saya , ,
, , , , , , , ,
(bed,snake,lizard,sex,hand-kara-hara/khara-hand,trunk of
elephant,donkey etc)/ satra(house,sacrifice)/adhvara (sacrifice)

Hence to denote the king(nripa-king/bharani-jar/aga-
sun,cup,tree,hill,snake , , ) and his house/command
the Jar/fish + snake , /spear /leaf symbol is
used.Patra(leaf) denote the vulva also.
Sukra , , , , (soma) indicate su-
hara(donkey,siva,fire)/kara(ray,trunk of elephant,tax)/sukara
(varaha-boar,elephant with a long kara-
unicorn)/sulka(tax,levy,price,dowry).Indra(netra-king) is
somapa(blood drinker-tax collector).
Madya-beer/lahari-beer/nagari-city is matsya-fish ,Pisces/ma-
astya /ma-asya /udaya /usha aja , ,
/uksha /asva /Miina -Sinai-Judea-Ayodhya
etc(king being the sun-palaces/forts/cities of kings were named
after the solar houses/angles).
, , , , nR(nRpa-king)-saya(dasra-snake,satra-
house,sacrifice;ratha-car,rasa -tongue,garta-throne,karsha-
weight,money) is nRtya M309a (dance;vriksha+
tiger→ Indraprastha/Prasthala city state),bhRtya , ,
(daasa-fisherman,servant , cf.Peter,Bharata, Rama,
Dasaratha), nRpasya(of the king,for the king,belonging to the
king) etc.
LMLK –למלך
The Hebrew word LMLK stands for the Hebrew
letters lamedh mem lamedh kaph (vocalized, lamelekh),which
means -of the king , for the king or belonging to the king -
which exactly is the translation of nripasya , , ,
, , etc.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LMLK_seal
The interesting fact about the lmlk jars/king’s storage jars is
that the king is the aga/jar , , , , (bharani-
paana-paatra-nripa-paala-partha-bhadra-bharata-aja-ma-
melek-melech-musali-hali-hari-sa→jar,king,snake,bird,god

is an inverted bharani itself).

This shows the close contact of the Hebrews with the
Harappans.They adopted the Harappan script to create their
alphabet .
The Malayalm alphabet(derived from Brahmi) letters u(va/bha-
bull,sun,siva), sa(snake,bird,god;u-sa/sha/ksha/kshaya/saya-
house,bed),la(Indra,ra-agni,gold;rasa-madya-juice,ratha-
car,raja-king) have the shape of saya(snakes/reptiles) similar to
the lameth indicating derivation from the Indus script.
cf.Mal. ശ SHA ś or sh ɕ →
ശ LA l l→
ശ ു ശശ (pu) U u short 'u'
cf.u→v
Thus it is clear that the Indus script is the source for both
Hebrew and Indian alphabets.
