HelpCAF w/ Instructions
Inspired by my current name obsession, the theme is all the names are of Hebrew origin or from the Tanakh (Jewish arrangement of the Old Testament)! Some instructions you may not be able to answer off the top of your head, so feel free to look things up (especially relevant to the instructions where I list 3 possible options—certainly not a comprehensive list). Oh, and clearly not all instructions are related to Judaism…I couldn’t think of enough, lol.
