I found the ancient-spooks website that makes the claim of most religious texts having hidden meanings by using puns and similar words to get the meaning across. Are there any books on this? I heard a rabbi wrote a book on the Talmud but I didn't write it down.pic unrelated

>>42175704They have greek stuff on their websites. I wonder what they were really talking about
>>42175498>Are there any books on this?https://www.rexresearch1.com/AlchemyArchives/Alm%C3%A1syAlchemyDeciphered.pdfAlmasy did a similar work for alchemical texts. much of the terms used there are already known to be puns and multiple meanings, while Almasy went through and performed a statistical analysis of all mentions of a certain term of phrase in addition to the surrounding context.the structure is excellent, and also proves out just how much of alchemy had to do with bodily fluids, plant extracts, and not surprising, animal extracts, especially from the adrenal glands above the kidneys to harvest adrenaline and make into spagyric potions.https://www.rexresearch1.com/AlchemyArchives/AlbertusAlchemistsHandbk.pdfAlbertus spoonfeeds you how to do it, while Almasy gives you some solid hints toward what everything is. similar to your religious text, just different sources. much of the knowledge of the alchemists was stolen, copied, and sanitized into church dogma during the initial phases when they were competing against other religions, not yet dominant.they inherited that practice from the ones they stole from. it goes back further.
David Ovason wrote a book deciphering the works of Nostradamus that way. I lent it to a friend, but I'm sure you can pirate a copy.
>>42178386>>42177715Thank you guys
Very common but only exists if you're reading an untranslated source
>>42175498>hidden meanings by using puns>punsGerard de sede mention a book about the punic language which was also a pun on the word pun. Maybe later i look it up and post it. Im feeling lazy rn
>>42179322me from>>42177715what you want to look closer at is what linguists refer to as a crytpolecthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cant_(language)which is a type of way to perform obscurantist type communicationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obscurantismwhere a person often times also makes use of abjad reconstitution, as your link mentioned above.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abjadwhere you remove all the vowels, then replace with new vowels, sometimes having to phonetically rhyme the new word into place, which was the standard practice in rebic communicationhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RebusI'll chat more about the topic overall, but the bottom line is there are better ways to conceal meaning, data, and communications, than encryption can offer. one big example is how the new LLMs are used as cryptolectic processors such that, as mentioned in the links above, take a source document or piece of text, and then overlay a myth, allegory, whatever, fake news, some bullshit, and adhere to the cryptolectic dictionary used between endpoints, such as used in the Thieve's Cant dialect, and then transmit that in the open.all this is a subset of steganographyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steganographyonce you know what to look for and how to read it, it becomes obvious.
>>42180605>take a source document or piece of text, and then overlay a myth, allegory, whatever, fake news, some bullshit, and adhere to the cryptolectic dictionary used between endpointsone exampe of this is how Cixin Liu used that as a literary device as the snow-wave paperhttps://coldewey.cc/cixin-liu-deaths-end-fairy-tales/in a sort of metarecursive way. in his story, a character needs to communicate a secret message under the confinement of ayylmaos back to Earth. to do this, he uses obscurantism, a cryptolect, and a memetic vehicle (childrens book) to deliver the message. no need for encryption, wacky hardware, super unbreakable mathematics, just an overlay. the meta part is having a character do that to express a hidden truth, which Cixin Liu is doing one level up as the author, expressing another truth by that part of his trilogy having a cryptolectic meaning as well. link above.you should cruise /lit/ more and read more about linguistics and obscure literary topics. this is all under the same heading as those secret messages delivered as crossword puzzles in newspapers.
