It is interesting that written Ancient Hebrew did not have the equivalent of vowels.

A Dead Sea Scrolls scholar that I have spoken with say that in examining the scrolls themselves, they see signs that earlier scholars have added "suggestions" as to which vowels might be the preferred ones to give the desired meaning to the words written on the scrolls. He said it was like they had "pencilled in" their suggestions.

Of course, different vowels give different meanings.

Modern day Allah is likely derived in part from the Ancient Hebrew Al-Elah.

SI doesn't support posting of the Ancient Hebrew characters for that phoneticism, but you can find them through Wikipedia if you're interested.
