Mathematical Codes Found in The Bible

Mathematical Codes Found in The Bible

The following is a brief look at Chuck Misslers book "The Creation Beyond Space and Time". The numerical structure of the Bible has been studied closely, being the subject of numerous volumes in the past. But none are more provocative then the works of Ivan Panin.

Ivan Panin was born in Russia on December 12, 1855. Having participated in plots against the Czar at an early age, he was exiled and, after spending some years studying in Germany, he came to the United States and entered Harvard University. After graduation in 1882, he converted from agnosticism to Christianity.

In 1890 he discovered some phenomenal mathematical designs underlying both the Greek text of the New Testament and the Hebrew text of the Old Testament. He was to devote 50 years of his life painstakingly exploring the numerical structure of the scriptures, generating over 43,000 detailed, hand-penned pages of analysis.

 

The Heptadic Structure

The recurrence of the number seven, or an exact multiple of seven, is found throughout the Bible and is widely recognized. The Sabbath on the seventh day, the seven years of plenty, and the seven years of famine in Egypt, the seven priests and seven trumpets marching around Jericho, and the Sabbath year of the Land are well-known examples.

Also, Solomon's building the Temple for seven years, Naaman's washing in the river seven times, and the seven churches, seven seals, seven trumpets, seven bowls, seven stars, and so on in the Book of Revelation, all show the consistent use of the number seven.

But it turns out to be much more below the surface. Ivan Panin noted the amazing numerical properties of the Biblical text - both the Greek of the New Testament and the Hebrew of the Old Testament. These are not only intriguing to discover they also demonstrate an intricacy of design which testifies to a supernatural origin!

If we look at the first 17 verses of the New Testament (The Gospel of Matthew) which deals with a single principal subject: the genealogy of Jesus Christ, It contains 72 Greek vocabulary words in these initial 17 versus(*note; The verse divisions are man's allocation for convenience, added in the thirteenth-century A.D.). We find the following Heptadic (7) structure throughout these original Greek versus.

1	The number of words which are nouns is exactly 56, or 7 x 8.
2	The Greek word "the" occurs most frequently in the passage: exactly 56 times, or 7 x 8.
3	Also, the number of different forms in which the article "the" occurs is exactly 7.
4	There are two main sections in the passage: verse 1-11 and 12-17. In the first main section, the number of Greek vocabulary words used is 49, or 7 x 7.
5	Of these 49 words, The number of those beginning with a vowel is 28, or 7 x 4.
6	The number of words beginning with a consonant is 21, or 7 x 3.
7	The total number of letters in these 49 words is exactly 266, or 7 x 38-exactly.
8	The numbers of vowels among these 266 letters is 140, or 7 x 20.
9	The number of consonants is 126, or 7 x 18-exactly.
10	Of these 49 words, the number of words which occur more than once is 35, or 7 x 5.
11	The number of words occurring only once is 14, or 7 x2.
12	The number of words which occur in only one form is exactly 42, or 7 x 6.
13	The number of words appearing in more than one form is also 7.
14	The number of 49 Greek vocabulary words which are nouns is 42, or 7 x 6.
15	The number of words which are not nouns is 7.
16	Of the nouns, 35 are proper names, or 7 x 5.
17	These 35 nouns are used 63 times, or 7 x 9.
18	The number of male names is 28, or 7 x 4.
19	These male names occur 56 times or 7 x 8.
20	The number which are not male names is 7.
21	Three women are mentioned-Tamar, Rahab, and Ruth. The number of Greek letters in these three names is 14, or 7 x 2.
22	The number of compound nouns is 7.
23	The number of Greek letters in these 7 nouns is 49, or 7 x 7.
24	Only one city is named in this passage, Babylon, which in Greek contains exactly 7 letters.

And on and on it goes.

Just to understand how unique these properties are try to design a genealogy-even from fiction that meets the following criteria:

1	The Number of words must be divisible by 7 evenly. (In each of these constraints, it is assumed that the divisions are without remainders.)
2	The number of letters must also be divisible by 7.
3	The number of vowels and the number of consonants must be divisible by 7.
4	The number of words that begin with a vowel must be divisible by 7.
5	The number of words that begin with a consonant must be divisible by 7.
6	The number of words that occur more than once must be divisible by 7.
7	The number of words that occur in more than one form must be divisible by 7.
8	The number of words that occur in only one form shall be divisible by 7.
9	The number of nouns shall be divisible by 7.
10	Only 7 words shall not be nouns.
11	The number of names in the genealogy shall be divisible by 7.
12	Only 7 other kinds of nouns are permitted.
13	The number of male names shall be divisible by 7.
14	The number of generations shall be 21, also divisible by 7.

There are even more features in the numerical structure of the words themselves. As you may know, both the Hebrew and Greek use the letters of the alphabet for numerical values. Therefore, any specific word in either Hebrew or Greek- has a numerical value of its own by adding up the values of the letters in that particular word. The study of the numerical values of words is called gametria.

The 72 vocabulary words add up to a gametrical value of 42,364, or 7 x 6,052.
The 72 words appear in 90 forms-some appear in more than one form. The numeric value of the 90 forms is 54,075, or 7 x 7,725. Exactly.

It becomes immediately obvious that hidden below the surface are aspects of design that cannot be accidental or just coincidence.

 

Other Implications

There are words in the passage just described that occur nowhere else in the New Testament. They occur 42 times (7 x 6) and have 126 letters (7 x 18). How was this organized?

Even if Matthew contrived this characteristic into his Gospel, how could he have known that these specific words-whose sole characteristic is that they are found nowhere else in the New Testament-were not going to be used by the other writers? Unless we assume the absurd hypothesis that he had an agreement with them, he must have had the rest of the New Testament before him when he wrote his book. The Gospel of Matthew, then, must have been written last.

It so happens the Gospel of Mark exhibits the same phenomenon. It can be demonstrated that it would have had to be written "last." The same phenomenon is found in Luke, John, Peter, Jude, and Paul. Each would have had to write after the other in order to contrive the vocabulary frequencies! You can demonstrate that each of the New Testament books had to have been "written last."

There is no human explanation for this incredible and precise structure. It has all been supernaturally designed. We simply gasp, sit back, and behold the skillful handiwork of the God who keeps his promises.

By the way, the crucifixion of Jesus took place at Golgotha, elevation = 777 meters above sea level. What a coincidence. panin1.htm

THE CUP OF COFFEE ON THE WALL

Cup of Coffee on the Wall

I sat with my friend in a well-known coffee shop in a neighboring town of Venice, the city of lights and water. As we enjoyed our coffee, a man entered and sat on an empty table beside us. He called the waiter and placed his order saying, 'Two cups of coffee, one of them there on the wall.' We heard this order with rather interest and observed that he was served with one cup of coffee but he paid for two. As soon as he left, the waiter pasted a piece of paper on the wall saying 'A Cupof Coffee'.
While we were still there, two other men entered and ordered three cups of coffee, two on the table and one on the wall. They had two cups of coffee but paid for three and left. This time also, the waiter
did the same; he pasted a piece of paper on the wall saying, 'A Cup of Coffee'.
It seemed that this gesture was a norm at this place. However, it was something unique and perplexing for us. Since we had nothing to do with the matter, we finished our coffee, paid the bill and left.
After a few days, we again had a chance to go to this coffee shop. While we were enjoying our coffee, a man entered. The way this man was dressed did not match the standard nor the atmosphere of this coffee shop. Poverty was evident from the looks on his face. As he seated himself, he looked at the wall and said, one cup of coffee from the wall. The waiter served coffee to this man with the customary respect and dignity.  The man had his coffee and left without paying. We were amazed to watch all this when the waiter took off a piece of paper from the wall and threw it in the dust bin. Now it was no surprise for us – the matter was very clear. The great respect for the needy shown by the inhabitants of this town welled up our eyes with tears.
Coffee is not a need of our society neither a necessity of life for us. The point to note is that when we take pleasure in any blessing, maybe we also need to think about those people who appreciate that specific blessing as much as we do but they cannot afford to have it.
Note the character of this waiter, who is playing a consistent and generous role to get the communication going between the affording and the needy with a smile on his face.
Ponder upon this man in need….he enters the coffee shop without having to lower his self-esteem…he has no need to ask for a free cup of coffee…without asking or knowing about the one who is giving this cup of coffee to him…he only looked at the wall, placed an order for himself, enjoyed his coffee and left.
When we analyze this story, along with the other characters, we need to remember the role played by the wall that reflects the generosity and care of the dwellers of this town._

The Bible (pictures are stunning - facts stated, just amazing!)

Normally I do not like to encourage "forwards"
And try my best not to "forward" any myself...... !
But was moved enough by the amazing claims made in this presentation regarding certain facts in the Bible - to want to share this one with you..

It was their anniversary, and Amrita was waiting for her husband Rajiv to show up.
Things had changed since their marriage, the once cute couple couldn't-live-without-each-other had turned bitter.
Fighting over every little things, both didn't like the way things had changed.
Amrita was waiting to see if Rajiv remembered it was their anniversary!
Just as the door bell rang she ran to find her husband wet and smiling with a bunch of flowers in his hand.
The two started re-living the old days. Making up for fights, then was d plan for champagne, light music And it was raining outside! It was perfect.
But the moment paused when the phone in the bedroom rang.
Amrita went to pick it up and it was a man. "Hello ma'am I'm calling from the police station. Is this Mr Rajiv Mehra's number?"
"Yes it is!"
"I'm sorry ma'am; but there was an accident and a man died. We got this number from his wallet; we need you to come and identify his body."
Amrita's heart sank.!!! WITH. FEAR!
But my husband is here with me?"
"Sorry ma'am, but the incident took place at 2 pm, when he was boarding the train."
Amrita was about to lose her conscience.
How could this happen?!
She had heard about the soul of the person coming to meet a loved one before it leaves!
She ran into the other room. He was not there. It was true! He had left her for good!!
Oh God she would have died for another chance to mend every little fight!
She  rolled on the floor in pain. She lost her chance! Forever!
Suddenly there was a noise from the bathroom, the door opened and Rajiv came out and
said..... "Darling, I forgot to tell you my wallet got stolen today".

Please read!!!

He is an exemplary Indian, our Country  has ever heard of.

Sr.Millicent
Man of the Millennium.....

Mr.Kalayanasundaram worked as a Librarian for 30 years. Every month in his 30 year experience(service), he donated his entire salary to help the needy. He worked as a server in a hotel to meet his needs. He donated even his pension amount of about ten lakh rupees to the needy.

He is the first person in the world to spend the entire earnings for a social cause. In recognition to his service, the American government honoured him with the 'Man of the Millennium' award. He received a sum of Rs 30 crores as part of this award which he distributed entirely for the needy as usual.

Moved by his passion to help others, Super Star Rajinikanth adopted him as his father. He still stays as a bachelor and dedicated his entire life for serving the society. You can read more about him here.

See the attachment also.

All our Politicians, Film stars, Business magnets, cricketers  Press and we all Indians should be PROUD and also should be ashamed of ourselves. American Government has honored him but we Indians even don't know that such a personality exist amongst us.

Atleast have the courtesy to pass this on and on till the whole world comes to know about this Great Good Samaritan.

Hat's off Kalayanasundaram.. We Indians are extremely proud of you and proudly say "THIS HAPPENS ONLY IN INDIA"
"Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil - it has no point."
