A distinctive Jewish variety of the Aramaic alphabet that can be regarded as the Square Hebrew script can be traced from the 3rd century bce. The theory may be only partly correct, because in the Holy Land the Early Hebrew alphabet was an object of such strong local attachment that for several centuries it was used side by side with the Aramaic script.Īt any rate, there is little doubt that the Square Hebrew did derive from the Aramaic alphabet. It is generally believed, in accordance with Jewish tradition, that the Early Hebrew alphabet was superseded in the Holy Land by the Aramaic alphabet during the Babylonian Exile (586–516 bce) and that the Aramaic script therefore became the parent of the Square Hebrew (in Hebrew ketav merubaʿ or ketav ashuri ).
