Now when we spiral a bendable wire around this Hebrew letter it results in a 3 dimensional view (pictures are in my book)...
Perhaps you could scan and post some pictures from your book, but I don't see the connection. Of course if you make spirals of wire around a letter it *gasp* will look like a spiral! Because you just made it!
Even if you can establish that the Hebrew alphabet is somehow linked to the mathematics that describe recurring patterns in Earthly life, you still have not established causality. In other words, you don't know if Hebrew was based on observation or what. The airfoil shares many similarities with bird wings, but it does not mean it was divinely inspired.
Furthermore, even if you could prove that Hebrew was divinely inspired you are still far away from establishing the truth of the Biblical account. All the important parts of the Bible, from the account of Christ to great swaths of the Old Testament, were originally oral tradition before being later recorded. There were lots of other things recorded in Hebrew that you don't seem to accept; worship of Baal, or hucksters very similar to Jesus.
Besides, what makes more sense: That God divinely inspired a language and written script which he would use much later to inscribe rules into, and that he expected the divine nature to be puzzled out with great difficulty in order to verify it as divine (and apparently everything else ever written in Hebrew as well)? Or that God simply wrote his rules in the language of the people he was giving them to?
I think you know my vote.
