===Transliterated Hebrew=== Historically, hermetic and esoteric groups of the 19th and 20th centuries in the UK and in France used a transliterated Hebrew cipher with the Latin alphabet. In particular, the transliterated cipher was taught to members of the [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]]. In 1887, [[S.L. MacGregor Mathers]], who was one of the order's founders, published the transliterated cipher in ''[[The Kabbalah Unveiled]]'' in the [[Mathers table]].<ref>{{cite book |last=Mathers |first=S.L.
