I got this answer from a forum dedicated to Ancient Hebrew :
« Very few people can read let alone recognize the paleo Hebrew font.
Most modern Hebrew readers are not even aware that Hebrew was once
written in the paleo Hebrew script.
The same could be said for archaic Greek versus modern Greek - do you
propose to encode archaic Greek separately?
[PA] I'm proposing nothing here, I'm just forwarding an answer,
When the text was written in the paleo Hebrew four of the
Hebrew letters were used as vowels - aleph, hey, vav and yud, but were
removed from the text when the masorites added the vowel pointings. This
is evident in the Dead Sea Scrolls where the four letters are found in
the words but removed in the Masoretic text.
This is simply not true.
[PA] So there were Dead Sea Scrolls written in Square Hebrew with matres
lectionis ? (I don't know, I just would like to know.)
P.A.
