Publish the Obsidian vault's Knowledge folder as /knowledge (881 notes, 67 folders), with a Knowledge item in the nav and footer. - scripts/import_knowledge.py regenerates data/knowledge from the vault: slugged paths, folder notes as index pages, wikilinks resolved to site links (or plain text), callouts, highlights, and Dataview tables rendered statically. Personal notes are withheld via an exclusion list plus a privacy guard. - tuftecms/core/knowledge.py builds a concept index from note titles and aliases. First mentions on ordinary pages link to their Knowledge note (capped, never in headings, code, links, or sidenotes); Knowledge pages list related notes and where they're mentioned across the site; other pages get a Related Knowledge block. - Knowledge URLs join sitemap.xml (so the sweep test covers them), never displace existing legacy slugs, list alphabetically, and mermaid diagrams render client-side only on pages that have them.

Yelahiah (יְלָהִיָה) joins a root touching *to be eternal, to endure* — sometimes rendered *God who delivers* — to the suffix *-iah*, the abbreviated Tetragrammaton *Yah*. The whole is read by the tradition as "Eternal God" or, more pointedly, "God who protects against warfare." Extracted like all seventy-two names from the three verses of Exodus 14:19–21 — where each of the parallel lines yields exactly seventy-two Hebrew letters — Yelahiah stands as the forty-fourth ray of that concealed Name, the point where divine endurance turns toward the battlefield.

Yelahiah is the angel of the just warrior and the honest magistrate. His virtue is *courage in a righteous cause*: not the appetite for conflict but the discipline that fights only when peace has failed, and fights to restore it. The tradition sets him over soldiers, judges, and those who must render hard verdicts, granting them victory without cruelty and the clarity to distinguish defence from ambition. Where the fifth to tenth degrees of Scorpio concentrate the sign's martial intensity, Yelahiah tempers that heat into resolve, teaching that the truest strength is the strength that knows when to stay its hand.
