the nail, spike = vav , behold, reveal, = Heh, the hand, arm = yud, yod, behold, reveal = Heh.Well, I do believe that YHVH must somehow be prophetic of Christ, the vav letter does sorta look like a spike, but where do you get that "heh" and "yod" means reveal the hand or arm?

Hey means, reveal, behold, look, see.
The Y in YHWH means, arm, or God's arm of strength, or hand.
Vav means, nail, spike.
Remember in Hebrew it's written and read from right to left.
Hey - Vav - Hey - Yud or Yod.
In our western culture and western thinking mind it would read from left to right, Yod, or Yud - Hey - Vav - Hey.
The hand ? the arm ? Behold, look, see, the nail, spike, look, see, behold, reveal.
It get's us thinking ?
Spike in hand, nail in hand, God's mighty hand has a spike, nail in it.... revelation ? Jesus Christ's crucifixion.
