STAN TENEN is the Director
of Research for the Meru Foundation of Sharon, Mass. With a B.S. in
Physics (1963) from Polytechnic Institute of New York University, Mr.
Tenen has designed and produced optical and electronic equipment for
doctors and surgeons, and holds several patents.
In 1968, while examining the Hebrew text of Genesis, Mr. Tenen noticed what appeared to be a pattern in the arrangement of the letters. This observation, which prompted thirty years of research into the history and tradition of the text, has led to a meaningful understanding of traditional teachings in a modern context. Mr. Tenen has presented his works to scientific and religious scholars throughout the United States and Israel.
