Here is the website that I found:

The Ancient Hebrew alphabet 4,000 year old Inscription was found in the land of Israel and is composed of three letters written in the ancient pictographic Hebrew script. Some of the letter of the inscription is the aleph.
The Hebrew Bible (called the Tenack by Jews and the Old Testament by Christians) was originally written in this pictographic Hebrew script byHebrews whose language, culture and lifestyle were very different than our own in 2,500 to 3,500 years ago. The word rain is a good example of how culture can influence one's view of a word. Nowadays, the word "rain" means a spoiled picnic but to the ancient Hebrews, "rain" meant life, for without it their nomadic life would end. Without a cultural understanding of the words in the Bible, much is missed or overlooked.
