Hello again!  Shalom!

After reading through the V. 9β code charts PDF document, I DID find a new
area to relocate our new Hebrew Extended block (a very important area to
add into Unicode):
THE AREA FROM U+30000 TO U+3014F (336 codepoints)
·U+30000—U+30014 (21 codepoints):  Additional characters for typesetting
Biblical/Classical Hebrew

points for Hebrew and Galilean Aramaic
·U+30020—U+30021 (2 codepoints):  Small superscript top-left signs for the
letter *shin*—superscript śin and superscript shin

for Samaritan script in BMP)
·U+30090—U+3010F (128 codepoints):  Additional characters in Hebrew script
for other Jewish languages (these are pointed like the corresponding Arabic
characters in the BMP)
