Of course, the Hebrew characters are unmistakably Resh He (רה) - the equivalent of RH in English. I've been looking for Jewish fraternities/sororities associated with these two letters, but I haven't come across anything. In fact, most of them appear to have used Greek letters to identify themselves, rather than Hebrew:
Thank you argon38. I have scoured various sites at listings, photos , etc. Totally baffled. Someone had suggested the Hebrew letters were dalet & he. I believe you are correct in saying Resh He.
Of course, the Hebrew characters are unmistakably Resh He (רה) - the equivalent of RH in English.
And above those letters is what looks like the Roman numeral 7 (VII). At least, to my eye it looks like VII rather than Hebrew letters or numbers. Do you see it differently?
I've seen the plaques at temple, go into a temple...
Can you shed any light on the significance of the "VII" and the two Hebrew characters?
It's many miles from here to the nearest temple, though I suppose I could make the long round-trip over the mountain so I could just pop into it for a look around to see if I happen to spot a plaque similar to this.
Very intrigued to find a possible answer. been looking online to see if I can find a reference, but no luck yet. Live no where near a Temple, but will try maybe to email one. Would you know of any online reference I could check about this? Thanks so much.
