Bayit B
The 2nd letter, Bayit, having the meaning of house/tent/tabernacle (looks like Latin/Roman B) is an image of home/tent/tabernacle where the Lord, Creator of Shamayim (Heaven[s]) and Arets (Earth), has communion with mankind (Ex 29:42-43). On the 2nd day of creation, the Lord brought forth an expanse (sky/heaven) from between the waters on Arets to provide a home/tabernacle for mankind (Gen 1:6, 7, 8).
The Tabernacle is a tent/house of the Lord with the inner rear tabernacle called the Holy of Holies and the outer tabernacle called the Holy Place (Heb 9:2, 3). The entrance of the Tabernacle is to the east with the rising of the Sun & Moon, and the rear of the Tabernacle is to the west with the setting of the Sun & Moon (1 Kgs 6:16; Ex 26:22). Behind the door/curtain, between the Holy Place and the Holy of Holies, is where the Ark & the Covenant is located and covered with the Kapporet (the lid of the Ark of the Covenant) (Ex 26:33, 34). On top of the Kaporet is a place for the Lord's glory, between the wings of two carved cherubim (type of angels) (Ex 25:20, 21, 22; Heb 9:5). On Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement, the 10th day of the 7th Jewish month), blood (which gives life, Gen 9:4; Lev 17:11) from the sacrifice (symbolizing Yeshua/Jesus the Lamb) of the Altar (Cross) was cast upon the Kapporet to atone for the sins of those who accept the covenant of being one with the Family of the Lord (Lev 16:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34). Bayit also has the meaning of the family who is of the tabernacle/tent/home. So, it is the Family of the Lord who enters and becomes one with the Lord and his House/Tabernacle being made holy and cleansed from sin by the blood of Yeshua, the perfect Lamb of G-d, who was sacrificed on the Cross for those who receive/believe in Yeshua (Isa 53:5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12; Heb 10:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19; Jn 1:12). (The beginning form of Bayit is explained at the end of Dalet.)
Bet b
(This section may not make since until most of the letters have been read.) The openings of the eyes & ears, along with the angles of the mandible, & the corners of the mouth form the corners of a Bet (cube) of the head. The length of the forehead from top to bottom is a handbreadth. The length of the top of the eyebrows to the bottom of the nose is a handbreadth. The length of the the bottom of the nose to the bottom of the chin is a handbreadth. The length of the side of the face to the center of the nose is a handbreadth. So, the bottom of the nose to the hairline and both sides of the face form the square of the Bet (cube) of the circle of the head. This circle has the same length, from the front to the back of the head; as the width, from outer ear to outer ear; as the height, from the bottom edge of the upper lip to the top of the head (see picture), which are all a short zeret (short span) in length. The above cubed final Bet is (a little like the Latin/Roman lowercase b) representing the inner rear Bayit/House, the cubed Holy of Holies (1 Kgs 6:20; Rev 21:16), that nothing unholy will ever enter. This is where the Face of the Lord, the one holy Lord, has his throne and, along with the Body of Yeshua, will reign forever and ever, amen (Rev 21:10, 27; 22:3, 4, 5).
