Seven as a Religious Symbol

The 7th letter of the Armenian alphabet is է (Pronounced 'Eh')
է = էութիւն = Eyoutioun = Etre = Being

The Armenian capital letter է pronounced "Eh",
the seventh letter of the alphabet,
when used in a sentence in a religious context,
is a direct reference to God and means, "He exists".
The letter often appears at the top of encyclicals and letters issued by
the Catholicos to mean "God", "of God",
and "in the name of God", and is based on the book of Exodus 3: 1-14.
In every Armenian Apostolic Church we see this letter carved in stone and put high above the altar





Triangle = three angles = Holy Trinity
36 letters written in the form of a triangle
every seventh letter at each corner represents each of:

A = Asdvadz = God
S= Sourp Hoki = Holy Trinity
K = Kristos = Christ
