🧱 **FINAL WORD**
From destruction to dispersion, from silence to survival — the Hebrew people endured.
**They remembered Jerusalem. They clung to Torah.**
They waited for the time when **Yhwh would gather His people again.**
> “He who scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock.”
> — Jeremiah 31:10 (Early Square Script and Aramaic preserved versions)
