Gimel (letter)
Gimel is also the third letter of the Hebrew alphabet and thus also represents the number three in gematria. Its script is a vav with a yud as a foot and resembles a person in motion, symbolically a rich man running after a dalet to give him charity. The word gimel is derived from gemul, which means the giving of reward and punishment.
