==References == | <p> ( '''''צירי''''' ), or ''Anagram,'' is a Cabalistic rule according to which various words are formed through the change of any word into others by the transposition of the component letters. Thus '''''בראשית''''' , "in the beginning," has been anagramatized '''''ברית''''' '''''אש''''' , "a covenant of fire," to accord with Deuteronomy 33:2, "from his right hand went a fiery law for them." '''''‘''''' In a Cabalistic book entitled '''''תיקונים''''' upwards of seventy combinations of this single word are formed by R. [[Simeon]] benJochai. The Cabalists say that because the [[Hebrew]] letters are spiritual, and simple figures, they can therefore be construed in different ways; but this can be done in any language. Thus [[Herbert]] anagramatized the [[Virgin]] Mary into Army, as seen in the following two lines: </p> <p> '''"How well her name an''' [[Army]] '''doth present,''' '''In whom the''' '''Lord of hosts''' '''did pitch his tent!" (B.P.)''' </p> | ||
