The Hebrew term of Notarikon (or Notaricon or Notariqon) is derived from the Latin word notarius writer .

Notarikon belongs to the three cabalistic systems with the Gematria and the Temura.

Notarikon is similar to the Roman Sténographie, in which the initial or final letters of the words in a Phrase form new words.

There are two forms of Notarikon

First system

In the first system, each first letter of a word is taken for the initial one or the abbreviation of another word, thus, of the letters of a word, one can form a sentence.

For example, each letter of the word tysarb, (let us recall that Hebrew is read from right to left; maybe, from left to right, and with vowels:) Berashith, the first word of the Genesis, is taken as initial of a word to form hrvt larsy vlbqys myhlq har tysarb, Berashith Rahi Elohim Sheyequebelo Israel Torah: " At the beginning, Elohim saw that Israel would accept Loi".

Six examples of Notarikon formed starting from the same word tysarb (according to Solomon Mei Ben Moïse, Jewish kabbalist, which embraced the Christian faith in 1665 and took the name of Prosper Rugers):

  • the first example is mymt dxa mtsvls Ba xvr Nb, Ben Ruach Ab Shaloshethem Yechad Themim, " The Son, the Spirit, the Father, Their Trinity, Perfect Unité" ;
  • second is, vdvbit dxy mtsvls Ba xvr Nb, Ben Ruach Ab Shaloshethem Yechad Thaubodo: " The son, the Spirit, the Father, you will adore the Trinity of very the manière" ;
  • the third, vdvbit ivsy vms rsa ynvsar yrvkb, Bekori Rashuni Asher Shamo Yeshuah Thaubado, " You will adore My first-born, My elder, whose name is Jésus."
  • the fourth, vdvbit ivsi vms rsa nbr avdb, Bedoa Rabban Asher Shamo Yeshuah Thaubado, " When the Master comes whose name is Jesus, you it adorerez."
  • the fifth, hvrsat ivsy dlts rxba hyvar hlvtb, Bethulah Raviah Abachar Shethaled Yeshuah Thrashroah, " I will choose a virgin who can give Jesus, and you will call it bénie."
  • sixth is vlkat ivsy ypvgs rttca mypor tgvib, Beaugoth Ratzephim Assattar Shegopi Yeshuah Thakelo, " I will hide in cakes cooked with coal, and you will eat Jesus, My Corps."

Second system

The second form of Notarikon is the reverse of the first.

By this one, the initial ones or the finales or both or the medians of a sentence are taken to form a word or words. Thus Kabbalah is called hrtcn hmkx, Chokhma Nesthora, " wisdom secrète".

By taking initial these two words, X and N, we form, by the second form of Notarikon, word X, Chen, " grâce."

Same manner, the initial ones and finales of the words hmymsh vnl hliy ym, Semi Iaulah Leno ha hamayimah, " who will go to the sky for us? " (Deut. XXX, 12) are formed hlym, Milah, circumcision and hvhy, Tétragrammaton, which implies that God instituted the circumcision like means of reaching the sky.
