The verse of the name

From the letter Aleph to the letter Zayin

An ancient custom gives each person a verse: the one that begins with the first letter of their name and ends with the last. For Eloise, from א to ז:

אִם־חוֹמָה הִיא נִבְנֶה עָלֶיהָ טִירַת כָּסֶף וְאִם־דֶּלֶת הִיא נָצוּר עָלֶיהָ לוּחַ אָרֶז׃

“If she is a wall, we will build upon her a turret of silver; if she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.”
