## In Jewish tradition

In Sefer Yetzirah, it means that God revealed the secrets of the letters to Abraham. In Samuel it means that two men showed themselves, letting the enemy see them.

**Interpretation.** Tradition says that Abraham was given the secret of how the world was made from the letters, and that Sefer Yetzirah records it. The story of Jonathan and his armour-bearer is read as the start of a victory that came from faith.

### Examples
