Jason,

I am sorry but do not really understand what you are saying: "how they are
grouped and how the roots form some kind of mystical base meaning quite apart from their appearances in the text of the Bible or other related literature" is not something I recognize.

How does this not apply to your complex definitions of individual
semanthemes throughout the Hebrew language? I think you go overboard
in your definitions of what each Hebrew letter means and how they are
grouped and how the roots form some kind of mystical base meaning
quite apart from their appearances in the text of the Bible or other
related literature. Why should you lay out a rule to which you think
others should adhere while yourself abandoning it from the start?
