ו ?A?B, in the ancient Phœnician character,
, and in the Samaritan, 
, A B, (the two letters representing the numbers 1, 2, or Unity and Duality, means Father, and is a primitive noun, common to all the Semitic languages.
It also means an Ancestor, Originator, Inventor, Head, Chief or Ruler, Manager, Overseer, Master, Priest, Prophet.
ו ?A?B?Y is simply Father, when it is in construction, that is, when it precedes another word, and in English the preposition “of” is interposed, as ו ?A?B?Y-ו ?A?L, Abi-Al, the Father of Al.
Also, the final Yo_d means “my”; so that ו ?A?B?Y by itself means “My father.” ו ?D?W?Y?D ?A?B?Y, David my father, 2 Chron. ii. 3.
ו ?W (Vav) final is the possessive pronoun “his”; and ו ?A?B?Y?W, Abiu (which we read “Abif”) means “of my father’s.” Its full meaning, as connected with the name of Khu_ru_m, no doubt is, “formerly one of my father’s servants,” or “slaves.”
The name of the Phœnician artificer is, in Samuel and Kings, ו ?X?Y?Rמ and ו ?X?Y?R?Wמ–[2 Sam. v. 11; 1 Kings v. 15; 1 Kings vii. 40]. In Chronicles it is ו ?H?W?Rמ, with the addition of ו ?A?B?Y. [2 Chron. ii. 12]; and of ו ?A?B?Y?W [2 Chron. iv. 16].
It is merely absurd ‘to add the word “Abif,” or “Abiff,” as part of the name of the artificer. And it is almost as absurd to add the word “Abi,” which was a title and not part of the name. Joseph says [Gen. xlv. 8], “God has constituted me ’Ab l’Paraah, as Father to Paraah, i.e., Vizier or Prime Minister.” So Haman was called the Second Father of Artaxerxes; and when King Khu_ru_m used the phrase “Khu_ru_m Abi,” he meant that the artificer he sent Schlomoh was the principal or chief workman in his line at Tsu_r.
A medal copied by Montfaucon exhibits a female nursing a child, with ears of wheat in her hand, and the legend (Iao). She is seated on clouds, a star at her head, and three ears of wheat rising from an altar before her.
HORUS was the mediator, who was buried three days, was regenerated, and triumphed over the evil principle.
The word HERI, in Sanscrit, means Shepherd, as well as Saviour. CRISHNA is called Heri, as JESUS called Himself the Good Shepherd.
ו ?X?W?R, Khu_r, means an aperture of a window, a cave, or the eye. Also it means white. In Syriac, 
ו ?X?R also means an opening, and noble, free-born, high-born.

[paragraph continues] ו ?X?Rמ, KHURM means consecrated, devoted; in Æthiopic,
. It is the name of a city, [Josh. xix. 38]; and of a man, [Ezr. ii. 32, x. 31; Neh. iii. 11].
ו ?X?Y?R?H, Khirah, means nobility, a noble race.
Buddha is declared to comprehend in his own person the essence of the Hindu Trimurti; and hence the tri-literal mono-syllable Om or Aum is applied to him as being essentially the same as Brahma-Vishnu-Siva. He is the same as Hermes, Thoth, Taut, and Teutates. One of his names is Heri-maya or Hermaya, which are evidently the same name as Hermes and Khirm or Khu_rm. Heri, in Sanscrit, means Lord.
A learned Brother places over the two symbolic pillars, from right to left, the two words
and
ו ?Y?H?W and BAL: followed by the hieroglyphic equivalent,
of the Sun-God, Amun-ra. Is it an accidental coincidence, that in the name of each murderer are the two names of the Good and Evil Deities of the Hebrews; for Yu-bel is but Yehu-Bal or Yeho-Bal? and that the three final syllables of the names, a, o, um, make A∴U∴M∴ the sacred word of the Hindoos, meaning the Triune-God, Life-giving, Life-preserving, Life-destroying: represented by the mystic character
