Today's Example from the Bible - Numbers 1-10 in verses...

Comparing these verse numbers to the number explanations I've explained in my prior post, see if the meanings match. I've highlighted some parts to help and provided a number association definition above each verse...

Deu 6:1-10
One, God, Kings, Leaders, First things
1 And this [is] the commandment, the statute and the judgments which Jehovah your God commanded to teach you, to do them in the land to which you are crossing over, to possess it,

Two, Jesus, Love, Unity, Division, Deliver, Witness, Relationship...
2 that you might fear Jehovah your God, to keep all His statutes and His commandments which I command you; you, and your son, and your son's son, all the days of your life; and that your days may be prolonged.

Three, Devine Purity, Holy Spirit, the law or things we must do, fellowship...
3 Hear, then, O Israel, and take heed to do [it], that it may be well with you, that you may increase greatly, as Jehovah the God of your fathers has promised you, in the land flowing with milk and honey.

Creation, the world, heavens, man & fallen man, earth, cities, people, groups, places...
4 Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God [is] one Jehovah.

Provision/Goodness of God. His taking care of man and the earth in it's brokenness
5 And you shall love Jehovah your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might.

Redemption, sin, discipline, the need for redemption, the process of us being saved
6 And these Words which I am commanding you today shall be on your heart.

Sanctification, acts and things related to us being saved and made spiritually clean
7 And you shall teach them to your sons, and shall speak of them as you sit in your house, and as you walk in the way, and as you are lying down, and as you are rising up.

Abundance, goodness of God/Jesus or lack thereof. Actions we do or work of God once we are saved...
8 And [you] shall bind them for a sign on your hand; and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes.

Endings, things coming to an end, the future, things we are to do or that will happen...
9 And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house, and on your gates.

Completion or the final thoughts/words about a subject. The ends of things. Commands and directions.
10 And it shall be, when Jehovah your God shall bring you into the land which He has sworn to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give to you great and good cities, which you have not built,
