Gematria is a Kabbalistic method of interpreting the Hebrew scriptures by computing the numerical value of words, based on those of their constituent letters.
The Hebrew Alphabet
Each
letter represents a number and also has a meaning. Five letters have a
different shape when written at the end of a word (remember, Hebrew is
read right to left). Mem is the only final with an oblong shape. Kaph,
Nun, Pe, and Tzaddi have tails that come below the line when written as
finals. Hebrew Letters are Holy Symbols. They should be carefully
drawn, and square. See Hebrew Alphabet Here
