Intelligence Brief
Communicated by means of signs and symbols rather than plain literal speech. The message was encoded in imagery. This is not evasion — it is a deliberate mode of divine communication rooted in the prophetic tradition. Trained readers recognize the symbols; the uninitiated do not. GK: sēmainō (σημαίνω) — to signal, to communicate through signs (sēmeion). Root of "semaphore" and "semiotics." Same verb used of prophetic symbolic communication in Daniel (LXX). SCIF: Transmitted via encrypted signal protocol — intelligence encoded in symbol and imagery, delivered through an authorized courier chain. Requires trained interpretation by cleared personnel.
