Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law (Turah), or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law (Turah), till all be fulfilled.
Koine Greek from κοινός "common", also known as Alexandrian dialect, common Attic or Hellenistic Greek was the common supra-regional form of Greek spoken and written during Hellenistic and Roman empire. It developed through the spread of Greek following the conquests of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC, and served as the common language of much of the Mediterranean region and the Middle East during the following centuries. Since the gospel went out to the Gentiles who majorly spoke Greek, The Greek became dominant over the church almost 2 centuries after Messiah when all the apostles of the Messiah were dead and gone. The original Greek Papyrus 46 preserved the names and important Hebrew words like 'Reyq', 'Sabbath','Abba' 'Corban' etc & phrases like 'Aleph and Tav' & 'yod and v'kotz shel yod' which were spoken and written in Hebrew.When translating into Greek with copies of copies the words were changed to Greek and translated to other languages from Greek instead of transliterating them and lost the essence and meaning of what was being said.

Matt5:18 For truly. I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away,
not 'one YOD v'kotz shel yod' shall pass from the Law until all has been established.
It means 'one Yod or stroke of a Yod'. These words were translated by translators to 'Iota and keraia'.Yahusha would in no way use Greek terms. Luke 16:14-17 are parallel verses and Pharasees were also part of the audience with the disciples.Yahusha would use terms they would understand according to the law.Iota and keraia would be entirely foreign to the Pharasees.
Lu 16:14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but Alahim knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of Alahim.
16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of Alahim is preached, and every man presseth into it.
17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.

10th letter of Hebrew alphabet is 'Yod'
'jot' is translated from the Greek 'iota' which is the tenth letter of Hebrew which is the 'Yod'. Though the letter 'Yod' was a pictogaph of a hand but when written it was just a small stroke. Here are a few examples:
Pictograph of Yod in proto Cannanite script:
The pictograph is of a hand
In Oldest Hebrew this was how the Yod was written. Let's look at ALEPH:
The letter Aleph from where we get the alphabet A when turned clockwise is made up of 2 Yods and one uau (nail). The Yod's can be seen with small strokes one upward and one downward and the line passing through them is the Uau.
Modern Hebrew ALEPH:
The letter Aleph is written with a diagonal Uau (nail) and 2 Yods, one upward and one downward.
Yod is the source of life in each letter of Hebrew (all 22 Aleph Bets). Its gematria value is 10.
The number 10 seen in: Tithe shall be holy to Yahuah (Lev 27:30,32), Ten commandments (Exo 34:28), Passover lamb taken on 10th day of the first month (Exodus 12:2-3), manna to be kept in the ark of the testimony in a pot in the measure of an omer and omer is 10th of the ephah (Exo 16:31-36),10th part of an ephah for meat offering for Aaron and his sons (Lev 6:20), trumpet of jubliee to be sounded on day of atonement on 10th day of seventh month (Lev 25:9) etc all point to the emanations from the YOD of Alahim (his hand). The number ten is seen in all sacrifices. Even judgment for example on 10th day of 10th month Nebudchanazzer came against Israel to captivate them by the hand of Yahuah (Jer 52:4).The Yod Family seen everywhere and in everything be it the 22 Hebrew letters forming the Aleph -Bet which is the Divine Content.
Yod family in the Aleph-Bet:
10) Yod (hand reaching out to save)
13) Mem (water: the water of life flowing from Yahusha)
15) Samekh (Shield: Yahusha is a shield to all who trust in him)
18) Tsad (man on his side: The pictograph is of a fish hook by which he fishes men to his side and Yahusha said he would make them fishers of men)
19) Quph (Sun at the horizon: Speaks of both his transcendence and immanence)
21) Shin (consume or destroy. Yahusha rise and fall of many)
22) Tau ( The cross covenant-Yahusha died on the cross )

Tittle: 'kotz'
Greek word is 'keraia' which means something like a horn or an extension of a Hebrew letter. These extensions showed a 'flowing out of his grace' as reaching out to humanity.
It turns out that keraia means a little hook, In Paleo Hebrew there were no apostrophe on letters of the alphabet but extensions, distinguishing them from other letters, or a separation stroke between letters. During the time of Yahusha Ketav Ashuri (the Assyrian script) existed which was also called the square script on which the 'dots' and 'little emanations' appeared. Yahusha was speaking to the Rabbi's of his time who used this type of script in their scrolls. But actually original meaning of the word is “a little horn“. That ker- in there? As in keratin, the substance that our fingernails and animals’ horns are made of. Anyone who’s looked closely at nice manuscript Hebrew letters knows that they traditionally have lovely little flourishes at their end – serifs, as we would call them in modern English. The word for one of these is … kotz (קוץ). “a thorn” which is like an emanation.
The Hebrew text of the Torah (and Tanakh) has all sorts of mysteries that cannot be fully appreciated when considering print (and electronic) versions of the text. For example, when Yahusha said that "not a jot (yod) or a tittle (kotz) will pass from the Torah until all is fulfilled" (Matt 5:18), He was referring to the "kotz of the Yod" as understood in the Jewish scribal arts of His day.The Mighty Alahim was represented by YOD which the square script invented in Babylonian captivity made the Yod the smallest letter in Ketav Ashuri.The emanation from Alahim which now was the 'kotz of the yod 'was barely visible at times.Yahusha is using the same terminology to show the greatness of his emanations from Gen 1:1. ( I have touched based on Gen 1:1 later in this study so read on). Pharasees were looking only at the letter to the dot but had no spiritual insight to the emanations.Who made Yod and the emanations so small? The Masoretes in Babylonian captivity and Pharasees were holding on to those dots and serifs (small thorn like emanations from Hebrew letters) but were rejecting Yahuah's emanation.The essence of Yahuahs love mercy and grace flowing in extending his nail pierced hand to mankind through Yahusha was clipped.The letter became dominant. Yahusha is using the word 'kotz' (thorn) instead of 'qeren' (horn) because the emanation was clipped to such an extent that it would prick the Pharasees (as thorns prick) and also all those who made the Mighty Alahim's emanations so small in the letter. This was their sure judgment.
“The kotz of a Yod” refers to the upper serif of the letter Yod, the smallest of the Hebrew letters. But how can we see this level of detail without looking at the actual Hebrew text as transmitted by the Jewish scribal traditions?
In Paleo Hebrew there were no 'dots' and 'serifs' but there were extensions showing the grace flowing from the hand of Yahuah. Let's view a few extensions from the Paleo Hebrew to understand the 'kotz'
Bet: Pictograph of a tent in paleo hebrew.
Does this look like a tent? Yes it does if you turn the letter to the right (clockwise) This is how it would look
Notice that the very first letter of the first word (Bet in Bereshiyth Gen 1:1) is enlarged. It is the beit, or the “house”. It is as if the entire body of scripture is flowing out of the house through the open door. The extension and emanation is so clear.
Other examples of Extensions are:
Yod -the hand of Yahuah extending to humanity. We have seen the pictograph already, we have also see the Yod extending out in the letter 'Aleph' as two hands, one upper hand and one lower hand.
Kaph-the open palm. Proto Cannanite pictograph:
Isa 49:15 Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget
Isa 49:16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms (kaph) of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.
The hand (Yod) extension shows the piercing and us graven on his hand in that piercing-this is what is spiritually means. These extensions spiritually show us Yahuah's GRACE flowing to us. The entire Palm is visible.
Mt 6:22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
The 'good eye' has a 'yod' as marked in the figure above. The Yod also has an emanation at the top which is the kotz (tittle) which shows the extension of grace as in the eyes of Yahuah is on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their cries. If you notice that once this Yod is placed on the letter which is as 'Y' (Ayin) the emanation from the Yod is barely visible. This indeed is the 'kotz of the yod'. Thus the emanation from Yahuah's eyes which watch and see are clipped by the letter.
Ps 34:15 The eyes (ayin) of Yahuah are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
Ge 6:8 ¶ But Noah found grace in the eyes (ayin) of Yahuah.
In the Paleo Hebrew the eye is shown as a circle which has no emanation because the eye 'WATCHES'/'SEES' which is an emanation understood by common sense.
Now that we have spiritually seen what 'jot and tittle' is through the Pictographs and the spiritual vs spiritual comparison, it's time we put the pieces together.
The Law (Turah) is spiritual and we saw in our study 'Ab and the Aleph Bet' Turah means (תּוֹרָה,) "Instruction, Teaching". It is a language which is spelled out which testifies of the Son and the testimony of Yahusha is the spirit of prophecy . IT IS THE DIVINE CONTENT.
Turah in pictographs is represented as 'Tav Uau Resh Hay'
Tav is the Cross sticks sign which is the Sign of the Covenant
Uau is the 'nail'
Resh is the man's head which means 'first head'
Hay means 'Behold'
When the pictures are put together they mean 'The first head man nailed to the Cross'.
When Yahusha said that "Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil" and then says till heaven and earth pass one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the Turah, till all be fulfilled, what did he mean?
Let's see a spiritual vs spiritual comparison:
Heaven and earth:
Gen 1:1 In the beginning (Bereshiyth) Alahim created (bara) the (aleph tau) heaven(shamayim) and the (aleph tau) earth (arets).
The Bet (tent floor plan) in the Bereshiyth (Bet Resh Aleph Shin Yod Tau) and bara (Bet Resh Aleph), the Aleph Tau (the unrevealed hand of Yahuah is the same hand which was pierced and extended to us in a Covenant sealed by his blood i.e Yod (upper hand) Yod (lower hand) Uau (nail) Tau (covenant) ) IS SEEN WHEN ALAHIM MADE THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH. The spiritual in the literal.
Carnal man will never see the spiritual in the literal/letter but Yahusha reveals this truth to his elect.
Carnal man will never see the spiritual in the literal/letter but Yahusha reveals this truth to his elect.
Bereshiyth: Hebrew word “barasheet” as it would look in the original pictographs. The Hebrew word “barasheet” is comprised of the Hebrew letters BET (the equivalent of our letter “B”,pictured in the ancient Hebrew as a House or Tent, and meaning house, as in “the house of David”)
RESH (R)(pictured as a man’s head, meaning the first or highest person.
ALEPH (A)(pictured as an ox head, meaning Alahim is my strength).
SHIN (Sh)(pictured as two teeth, meaning to consume or destroy).
YOD (Y)(pictured as an arm from the fist to the elbow, meaning my hand).
TAU (T)(pictured as two crossed sticks, meaning a mark or covenant).
When pictures in Bereshiyth put together it reads as ' The hand which was extended as the first head man who in headship appeared in the tent as the initator and the consumer of the Covenant'
Please see the pictographs comprising the word 'Bereshiyth'
RESH (R)(pictured as a man’s head, meaning the first or highest person.
ALEPH (A)(pictured as an ox head, meaning Alahim is my strength).

When pictures in Bereshiyth put together it reads as ' The hand which was extended as the first head man who in headship appeared in the tent as the initator and the consumer of the Covenant'
Please see the pictographs comprising the word 'Bereshiyth'
'In the beginning' (Bereshiyth) shows the Yod family (Father and the Son i.e Yahuah is become my Yahusha) and the plan that he laid out to make and to consume. We already saw in our previous study when John says 'In the beginning' and 'That which was from the beginining' he was seeing the spiritual in Gen 1:1 just as we do now.
'Bara' : 'Created' (Bet Resh Aleph)
“Bara” means “created”. But bara can also mean “cut down”.
Bet: Tent floor plan
Resh: First or highest person
Aleph: Yod extension in headship
When put together 'Bara' would read as ' In the Tent floor plan the first head is the hand that was extended'
Gen 1:1 Bereshiyth Alahim bara Aleph Tau shamayim Aleph Tau arets
Gen 1:1 spiritually reads as :
The plan of the hand which would be extended as the first head man who in headship would appear in the tent as the initator and the consumer of the Covenant is Alahim who marked the heavens and the earth when creating them with his own signature Aleph Tau thus seperating the spiritual from the natural.
Bereshiyth (The hand which was extended as the first head man who in headship in the tent, the initator and the consumer of the Covenant)
Bara also speaks the same. When something is said twice its of utmost importance.
When put together 'Bara' would read as ' In the Tent floor plan the first head is the hand that was extended'
Gen 1:1 Bereshiyth Alahim bara Aleph Tau shamayim Aleph Tau arets
Gen 1:1 spiritually reads as :
The plan of the hand which would be extended as the first head man who in headship would appear in the tent as the initator and the consumer of the Covenant is Alahim who marked the heavens and the earth when creating them with his own signature Aleph Tau thus seperating the spiritual from the natural.
Bereshiyth (The hand which was extended as the first head man who in headship in the tent, the initator and the consumer of the Covenant)
Bara also speaks the same. When something is said twice its of utmost importance.
Heaven and earth which is created which will remain is the new heavens and the new earth whereas the present heavens and the earth will be cut down once the purpose of the Creator is fulfilled.
The Aleph Tau mark on the Heavens and the earth is a spiritual picture of the new heavens and the new earth.
Gen 2:4 אלהH428 תולדותH8435 השׁמיםH8064 והארץH776 בהבראםH1254 ביוםH3117 עשׂותH6213 יהוהH3068 אלהיםH430 ארץH776 ושׁמים׃H8064
Gen 2:4. ‘eleh thol’doth hashamayim w’ha’arets b’hibar’am b’yom `asoth Yahúwah ‘Elohim ‘erets w’shamayim.
Gen 2:4 אלהH428 תולדותH8435 השׁמיםH8064 והארץH776 בהבראםH1254 ביוםH3117 עשׂותH6213 יהוהH3068 אלהיםH430 ארץH776 ושׁמים׃H8064
Gen 2:4. ‘eleh thol’doth hashamayim w’ha’arets b’hibar’am b’yom `asoth Yahúwah ‘Elohim ‘erets w’shamayim.
In Gen 2:4 there is no Aleph Tau mark shown because Alahim already marked the heavens and the earth in Gen 1:1 when he created them. Gen 2:4 is a historical summation of Gen 1:1.
The present heavens and the earth will not pass away (consumed or destoryed), not until Yod (Jot) or extension of the grace through that yod i.e 'kotz' (Tittle) from the Divine Content (Turah) is fulfilled. Yod v’kotz shel yod (yod and its stroke)
That's what we can see from the spiritual comparison. The letter killeth but the spirit gives life. The literal/letter has the spiritual hidden. Yahusha is the fulfillment of the hand that was extended to us and is the sign of the rise and fall of many in Yisrael.
