Dalet D
The light, representing the Lord, that was made and separated from the darkness on day one was brought together on the 4th day into two (tabernacle) physical spheres (see Symbolism of Shape), the Sun and the Moon, to represent the Lord the Son Yeshua ha'Mashiach (Jesus the Messiah/Christ), who is both fully man (represented by the Moon) and fully G‑d (represented by the Sun) in physical form (Gen 1:3, 4, 5, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19). The circle and sphere have no beginning or ending point, just as the Lord has no beginning or ending. The Sun being gas represents the spiritual nature of Yeshua the Lord; while the solid Moon represents Yeshua in the flesh. The Sun and Moon appear to be the same size, representing the same person of Yeshua.
Yeshua is the First and the Last, the Aleph and Tav (Alpha and Omega), a title given to the Lord who has no beginning or end (Rev 22:13). The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, Aleph, has a number value of 1; while the last letter of the Alephbet, Tav, has a number value of 400. Using the circumference of the Moon as one unit (10,921 km = 1), the Sun's circumference is 400 units (Suns radius = 695,500 km, Sun's circumference=2πr=4,369,955 km) (4,369,955/10,921=400.14). The length of the Sun's circumference is 400 times longer than the circumference of the Moon. So, the Sun and the Moon that represent Yeshua ha'Mashiach also represent him as being the First and the Last.
The 4th letter, Dalet, means a door and is an image of a door to a tent/tabernacle. The curtain/door to the Holy of Holies (Holy of Holies = City of Heaven) in the Tabernacle is held up by four posts (Ex 26:31, 32, 33) and is a handbreadth in thickness (4 fingers wide, Mishnah Shekalim 8:5). This curtain was torn in half when Yeshua died on the Cross (Mt 27:50, 51; Mk 15:37, 38; Lk 23: 44, 45, 46). Yeshua is the Door; this is why he said, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; None comes toward/near the Father if not through me," - Jhn 14:6. Dalet/4 is the Door, who is Yeshua ha'Mashiach. This is why Yeshua, the Seed, was born into the tribe of Yehudah (Judah), the 4th tribe of Yisa'el (Israel), as the King of Kings, at the end of 4000 years after man was created, in the line of David (who was king at the beginning of 4000 years after man was created). "And came out a twig from the stump of Jesse (Jesse is David's dad) and a sprout from his roots to bear fruit." - Isa 11:1 (Isa 11:1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
A tree with its 4 parts as it grows from a seed (the root 1st, the trunk 2nd, the limbs 3rd, and the leaves 4th) breathes in through its green leaves (green being the 4th color on Earth) carbon dioxide (CO2). This carbon dioxide is the death we breathe out, and the leaves breathe out oxygen (O2), which we breathe in giving us life (Rev 22:2); this is just as ha'Mashiach (the Messiah) took upon himself death (sin) upon the Tree (Cross) to give life to those who choose to live with him by believing in him. The C in the CO2 being taken on by the leaf is the sixth physical letter (carbon) and represents the sixth letter Wav (see Wav). O is the eighth physical letter (oxygen) and represents the eighth letter CHayet (see CHayet).

A right hand clenched, with the fingers on the palm and the thumb around the fingers, forms a Bayit with a cross in the place of the holy of holies (in the center of the fingers on the top end of the clenched hand). The triangular index fingertip lays in the position of the door between the holy of holies and the holy place and has the shape of the final form of Dalet, with the beginning form of Gimel raising into the holy of holies. This door lines up with the 4 fingertips with their 4 fingernails each having a face in the shape of the beginning letter form of Dalet (like the Latin/Roman D). Opening the fingers together as though opening the door to the holy of holies, placing the index fingertip on the thumb fingertip, forms a Bet, a cubed holy of holies with an equal height, width, and length. So, it is though Yeshua ha'Mashiach, the Door, that the Holy of Holies (City of Heaven/New Jerusalem) is opened up to the person adopted into the family of the Lord (Jhn 10:7, 8, 9, 10, 11; Heb 10:19, 20, 21, 22).
