Numbers In Scripture

Copyright ã 2003 Rivkah Ministries By M. Larry Perrino

The Magen David (which was the symbol on the shield of David) is more commonly known as the Star of David). This symbol is clearly most commonly associated with Judaism in today’s society.

As to why the "star" was chosen, some scholars say that the top triangle strives upward, toward G-d, while the lower triangle strives downward, toward the real world. Some note that the intertwining makes the triangles inseparable, like the Jewish people. Some say that the three sides represent the three types of Jews: Kohanim, Levites and Israel.

The Magen David gained popularity as a symbol of Judaism when it was adopted as the emblem of the Zionist movement in 1897 and today, the Magen David is a universally recognized symbol of Jewry and it appears on the flag of the state of Israel.

IS THE STAR OF DAVID KOSHER?

Rick Chaimberlin

The question posed by the title might seem ludicrous to some. The Star of David is today found in all synagogues and is on the flag of Israel, a symbol of the restored national Jewish homeland.

However, there are many Christians today who believe that the Star of David is an occult

symbol, and therefore not kosher. We strongly disagree with them. I believe that the opposition to the Star of David is Satanic in origin. It is in essence anti-Semitic, one more of many attacks on Israel and the Jewish people.

There are various theories about the origin of the Star of David. Most theories ascribe Gentle origins to it. I personally believe that the Star of David is of Hebraic origin. In the modem Hebrew aleph-bet (alphabet), the 'd' sound is represented by the dalet, which looks like a backward ‘r'. But in the ancient Hebrew alephbet, the dalet looked like a triangle [A]. The Star of David (also called the Shield of David) was made up of these two triangular dalets. When the pagan nations went to war, they many times painted fearsome dragons, snakes, or other disgusting creatures on the shields of the soldiers. The Israelites chose instead to use the Star of David - the two dalets which contained the first and last letters of King David's name.

King David had a well-deserved reputation as a great man of war, and the mere thought of him (and the Israelites who fought with him) could strike fear into the hearts of Israel's enemies. It was an excellent and effective symbol for warfare. It was not used as a religious symbol by the Jews until several hundred years later.

Many today insist that the Star of David is used in occult and Satanic rituals. This may be true, but much more common is the use of the cross and the five-pointed star (the pentagram). The only place I have heard of the Star of David being used in Satanic rituals is in Christian literature attacking the Star of David as a Satanic symbol. But even assuming that this story is true does not constitute proof of the "Satanic" nature of the Star of David. It would show how a good symbol is used in a Satanic counterfeit. The gifts of the Spirit all have Satanic or occult counterfeits also, but I would never dream of telling Isaiah that prophesying is Satanic. Satan is trying to defame Israel, the Star of David, and the Jewish people. I expect that when Yeshua returns, He will heartily approve the Star of David. A passage of Messianic prophecy proclaims, "A star shall come forth from Jacob, and a scepter shall rise from Israel" (Num. 24:17).

Yeshua said, "I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright and morning star." Perhaps, just perhaps, the Star of David represents not only Israel and the Jewish people, but even the Messiah Yeshua. After Yeshua's birth in Bethlehem, some wise men [magi arrived from the east in Jerusalem saying, Where is He who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east, and have come to worship Him." These wise men were aware of the prophecy of Balaam in Numbers 24. Could it be that they saw the Star of David.

FROM THE EDITOR: The Jewish Star of David always has a top and bottom point lined up vertically. The star used in occult rituals is the Star of David rotated so that the two side points line up horizontally. See the difference?

History of the Star of David

Of the Ajacoids that wear a Star of David these days, probably 99% doesn't know the origin and the history of this star. Because even we, to our shame, didn't know too much about this actually, we took a little field trip into some historic literature. In this we stumbled across quite some shocking facts. Because history will keep on repeating itself forever, he or she with knowledge of the past will not be surprised by the future. To Ajacoids that feel a bond with the Star of David, it therefore is good to be aware of the phenomena which have occurred in the past around this star and around Jews in general, therefore this article.

The name Star of David, derived from the Hebrew "Magen David" (literally "Shield of David"), hints that there would be a direct connection between the star and (King) David.

A legend states that David would have worn a Star of David on his shield, whenever he went into battle. Not a single shred of evidence was ever found for this however. The Star of David is a hexa-angular star, also called hexagram. This hexagram was used during the

ancient history as a magical sign by among others by the Greek, Romans and the Babylonians, and taken over later by among others the Jews. In the Middle ages the Jews used the hexagram specifically to the following three ends:

as a decoration, and in particular as a graphical picture of a rose with six half round leaves;
as a magical symbol. Thus pregnant women used the image of an hexagram as protection for the unborn child; others used it as a deterrant against demons;
as an astrological symbol, and in particular as a graphical picture of the sun or a big star.

Despite the fact that the hexagram was used in an ancient past for several goals already in Jewish society, back then it didn't have the meaning the Star of David currently has by far. A little digress. In the ninth century AD the current countries Egypt, Syria, Israel and Iran one big Islamic state, ruled by one khalif Al Mutawakkil. This khalif obliged the non-Islamic population, being Christians, Jews and magicians, to wear certain distinguishing marks on top of their clothes. To the Jews this became a yellow spot. By doing this the khalif wanted to prevent (sexual) contacts between the followers of different religions.

This was as far as it is known the first time in history that Jews had to "mark" themselves. In the 13th until the 18th century AD this repeated itself: on instigation of the church and the government Jews (as well as Arabs) in many European (!) countries were forced to wear certain identifying marks (in some countries, among which The Netherlands, again a yellow spot) on their clothes. Again this had the reason to prevent mixing with other religions, in this case the Christians. Only under the influence of the ideas of the Enlightening, people's rights and the French Revolution (18th century) people came to the conclusion, that Jews could be treated as equal citizens as well and the identifying marks were abolished again. The Netherlands in this by the way were fast at this in

Europe; in 1619 already in our country the obligation to wear an outer distinguishing mark disappeared. Simultaneously with the yellow spot with which Jews were 'branded' in the Middle Ages, the hexagram, which more and more became known under the name "Star of David", developed itself to a specifically Jewish symbol. More and more Jews started to use it, e.g. in synagogues, on drawings and on stamps. In 1354 or 1357 (the exact year is not known) the Emperor Karel IV granted the right to carry their own flag to the Jewish community in Prague. On this flag made of red and gold the Star of David is depicted, with in the middle of this star a Jew hat. Around this time the Star of David started to serve as a "decoration" on Jewish tombstones. Striking is that the Star of David was depicted in 1656 together with a cross on a borderstone in Vienna, which outlined the Jewish and Christian parts of the city. Later on you could find the Star of David in various Jewish communities situated in the Middle of Europe. In the 19th century the Star of David had become the most occurring and generally recognized Jewish symbol. Also non-Jews then started to acknowledge the Star of David as a Jewish symbol. Striking is that the Star of David especially in those countries with a great tolerance towards Jews, developed itself as a Jewish symbol .

A negative Star of David

Through the centuries Jews dreamt of returning to the promised land (Palestine), but ever since the year 70 AD they hadn't tried seriously any more to realize this. At the end of the 19th century this changed however. Under the influence of a growing anti-semitism and violent pogroms in Russia, Romania, France, Germany and other countries and an increasing nationalism throughout Europe, a movement originated within Judaism which had the objective of creating a Jew state in Palestine, which could take care of Jews spread out all over the world. This movement, known under the name of "Zionisme, consisted of several clubs, each of which for itself used different forms of the Star of David as a distinguishing mark (a.o. a Star of David with in the middle the picture of a lion and around it seven stars, one with in the middle of it the word "Zion" and the current Star of David). Eventually the Star of David developed into a Zionistic sign, which called (and still calls) upon Jews to return to the land of the fathers. By the way the Zionist movement in those years wasn't too big yet, partly because Jews in many countries (among which The Netherlands) had become fairly integrated. In the thirties of this century however this changed drastically by anti-semitical and fascist political movements emerging all over Europe, which caused an ever increasing discrimination

of the Jew. These movements started to abuse the Star of David as an anti-semitical sign; the Star of David symbolized in this the "Jewish danger". So "the Jew" was often depicted in pamphlets as a capitalist with a fat belly and a cigar, who keeps people attached to strings and who controls the factories. At that this caricature wore a Star of David, through which this Jewish symbol got more and more of a negative ring with people.

In 1933 Hitler decided that Jews in Germany had to wear a brand, and in particular with a Jew Star (the insulting name for the Star of David). On the colour the nazi's didn't have to think very long. This had to be yellow, because this colour had been common in a negative and stigmatizing way to Jews for centuries already. The nazi's even spoke of "jew yellow". On May 2nd, 1942 the yellow Jew star was "taken into use" in the Netherlands. During the years 1933 to 1945 the Star of David therefore fulfilled a negative (the yellow Jew star) as a positive (the Zionistic Star of David) function. The Zionistic Star of David at that most of the times was blue on a white background, inspired by the Tallit, the blue-white Jewish prayer cloak.

As on May 14th, 1948 the state Israel was established, the blue Star of David on the white background became the -logical- national flag. The Star of David now is the symbol of a proud nation, a sign of hope for every Jew, who seeks protection in an own country. A positive Star of David.

We will study 3 levels of Biblical numbers:

(1) Outright numbers in the bible

(2) Gematria

(3) Triad Rules applied to numbers

(1) Outright numbers in the bible

Matt 10:30 “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.”

Ps 90:12 “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.”

Trinity in both OT and NT

Gen 18:2-5 Is this one or three different beings who met Abraham? He clearly addresses them both as one and as three.

2 And he (Abraham) lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men (seems simple enough) stood by him: and when he saw them (clearly multiple individuals), he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, 3 And said, My Lord (even in the Hebrew this is indicative of being addressed to only one person), if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: 4 Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree: 5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.

Mark 1:9-11 “And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. 10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove (Holy Spirit) descending upon him: 11 And there came a voice from heaven (The Father), saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

Matt 28:19 “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”

· Jesus and the number three:

· Christ raised three people from the dead;

· Satan tempted Jesus three times;

· Three people witnessed Jesus’ transfiguration;

· Peter denied Jesus three times;

· Three were crucified on Calvary;

· Jesus was crucified on the third hour;

· Three hours of darkness shrouded the earth after Jesus’ crucifixion;

· Jesus rose from the dead on the third day.

Biblical Triangle Numbers:

1	God ( as a unity)
3	God the Trinity ( as a triad)
6	The days of creation
45	Adam ( Created in God’s triangle image)
153	Jesus Christ (1+2+3+4…+17 = 153)
666	The Antichrist (1+2+3+4…+36 = 666)
1081	God’s Holy Spirit (1+2+3+4…46 = 1081)
2701	God’s 7 Words of Creation “In the Beginning… (1+2+3+4…73 = 2701)

What is a perfect number? Defnintion: a quantity equal to the sum of all different numbers that divide into it exactly (not including itself)

eg. 6 is a perfect number; ie. 1 ; 2 ; 3 (all numbers that divide into 6 evenly) when totaled 1 + 2 + 3 they equal to 6; therefore 6 is a perfect number.

Perfect Numbers by adding the factors together:

6	God ended creation by creating man on the 6th day 1+2+3=6
28	Many Biblical references to 28 not the least of which is average of moon’s revolution 1+2+4+7+14=28

The Tabernacle in the Wilderness

Ex 26:15-16 And thou shalt make boards for the tabernacle of shittim wood standing up. 16 Ten cubits shall be the length of a board, and a cubit and a half shall be the breadth of one board.

– This reveals that the height of the tabernacle was 10 Cubits. That makes the Holy of Holies or Most Holy Place a perfect cube! What does this mean?

– The Temple later built by Solomon around 960 B.C. 1 Kings 6:19-21 says, “And the oracle he prepared in the house within, to set there the ark of the covenant of the LORD. 20 And the oracle in the forepart was twenty cubits in length, and twenty cubits in breadth, and twenty cubits in the height thereof: and he overlaid it with pure gold; and so covered the altar which was of cedar. 21 So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.

– Why would God want the Most Holy Place of both the Taberncle and the Temple to be perfect cubes?

– Let’s notice another apparent cube from the Scripture. Rev 21:16 “And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.”

Let’s take a close look at the cube to see if it will reveal any special characteristics…

1 2

Notice as the cube changes its aspect of view that it begins to look like a hexagon.

Notice the direct relationship between triangles and cubes! Just thru perspective.

The first question we may have is, “Does the gematria of the Bible lend support to a kinship among holy objects, sacred places, and cubes?

The bible tells us in Rev 11:1 “And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.”

He is told to measure three things:

– Temple of God

– Altar

– them that worship therein

Using Gematria we obtain:

– Rev 8:3 "to", 370, "jusiasthrion", 1358, "THE-ALTAR" = 1728 = 12*12*12;

– The volume of the Temple City Rev 21:6 (2 pages back) is 12,000*12,000*12,000 = 1,728,000,000,000 cubic stadia! Both the altar and New Jerusalem, the heart and the whole, are the perfect cube of 1728;

– If a cube is the cubic measurement what is the square measurement 12,000*12,000 = 864,000,000 square stadia;

– What about the city? Rev 3:12 "ierousalhm", 864, "JERUSALEM," 864 = 12*72

– Them that worship therein? Rev 8:3 "agiwn", 864, "OF-THE-SAINTS" = 12*72

– In 1 Pet 5:2 “poimnion” , 380 “FLOCK”, "jeou", 484 “OF-GOD” = 864

– Altar/2 = 1728/2 = 864

– Take the perfect cube 1728 and apply the trinity function (a³ + b³ + c³ = the image) the resulting image is 1³ + 7³ +2³ +8³ or 1 + 343 + 8 + 512 = 864

– Rev 11:1 "kalamov", 362, "A-REED" , "omoiov", 460, "LIKE", "rabdw", 907, "A-STAFF" 362 + 460 + 907 = 1729 not be confused with 1728 above, Interestingly, we can take the result of 1729 by summing its as two perfect cubes 10³ + 9³ or 1000 + 729 = 1729

– John 19:38 "swma", 1041, "THE-BODY", "ihsou", 688, "OF-JESUS" = 1729. Since the entire structure of the New Jerusalem is the Most Holy Place, then the “body of Jesus” is the Temple.

Jesus said in John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Greek "alhjeia", 64, "THE-TRUTH."

The bible: "ihsouv", 888, "JESUS" "xristou", 1680, "CHRIST" = 2368

2 Cor 4: 4: "eikwn", 885, "THE-IMAGE" , "jeou", 484, "OF-GOD" = 1369

Jesus = 888 = [37] * 24

Christ = 1480 = [37] * 40

2368

Jesus said that he is “truth” whose gematria "alhjeia", 64, "THE-TRUTH" equals 64:

37 Visible Cubes the GK “Image of God” = 1369 = [37]*[37]

27 Invisible Cubes Gk “The Secret of God” = 999 = [37] * 27

19 Outside Cubes

8 Core Cubes

__________________

64 Total Cubes = 2368 = [37] * 64

Among these numbers we should recognize our old friends the exact cubes numbers 8, 27, and 64, and their hexagonal outlines 7, 19, and 37. Like our Fathers House, the Scripture is a manifestation of a mansion with many rooms. We are merely observing some of the more obvious! Fallen man who is blind to the bible is unaware of the entire structure.

Back to Triangularity

John 21:6 & 11

6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes…

11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, and hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.

Curious that the bible would express the exact number of fishes? What does 153 mean?

Have you ever seen the symbol of the fish?

1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10+11+12+13+14+15+16+17=153
