Friend,    With Purim right around the corner, Sefaria is busy preparing for the “Purim bump” — the increase in users who visit Sefaria to celebrate the holiday. Last year, more than 100,000 people visited the library or used the app to connect with the holiday or read along with Megillat Esther. This year we’re expecting even more.    To help with our text and tech preparations ahead of this busy time, a generous Jewish foundation is matching all gifts to the library up to $36,000.    Please give today to help us meet your learning needs!     
Mah, or mem-heh, is the numerical value of 45 in Hebrew letters (mem=40; heh=5). This numerical value is derived from the letters of the Tetragrammaton, the four-letter name of God referred to as the name of Havaya, when they are spelled out in full using the letter alef. In other words, each of the letters of the name of Havaya is written out as a separate word, and the letter alef is used to fill out the letters, as follows: The yod is spelled out as yod-vav-dalet (יוד), the heh is spelled heh-alef (הא), the vav is spelled vav-alef-vav (ואו), and the final heh is spelled heh-alef (הא). Mah represents the level of Tiferet or the light of Tiferet.
