Every Jot and Tittle (God & Typography)


(image: wikimedia)
I love good typeography (or good fonts, if you prefer).  I notice those types of things, for better or for worse. Architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe said, "God is in the details," and He's right.  

Guy Kawasaki posted an interesting link on great typeography.  If you're in to that sort of thing, you should also check out "Helvetica," the most interesting documentary on font I've ever seen.  

God really is in the details, and He was into Typeography/Fonts, too.   He says in Matthew 5:18 (NIV)
I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.
The KJV uses "jot and tittle" instead of "stroke of a pen" which further reveals God's notice of the smallest things.  If He cared for the very ink and letters with which His Word was written, can you imagine how important the whole Book must be?
