Re: Meaning of Hyla
in reply to a message by Bob
Umm...really?Looking over the letters you wrote, it took me some time to see that those were the letters in Elijah (Eliyahu) but backwards and missing the vav at the end. And I didn't know every letter has a separate meaning. Names are made out of words, and they're el (God) and Yah (half of God's name, I don't write it). So it means that [God's name] is God. And Hyla is just Eliyah(u) backwards. If Hyla actually did come from Eliyahu, and not something else.
