The Bible is divinely numbered by book, chapter and verse. What if your mind just can't believe the evidence? Cognitive Dissonance






Don't know what to think about numerical patterns in the Bible?

Be aware that our minds sometimes can't accept what it does not believe is possible. It makes no scientific sense and literally seems impossible that God could have numbered the Bible. But the evidence loudly declares the Bible is perfectly written and numbered in an amazing DNA like way.

The number patterns could not be coincidental, nor could they be the work of men. But they exist. The only explanation for this is that we must question our belief that the Bible is the product of men.

Cognitive Bias, Normalcy Bias, Cognitive Dissonance and other psychological studies explain to us how our minds can get stuck and prevented from taking in proven truths.

How to Overcome our Biases?

What to do about this bias we may observe in ourselves? Seek more evidence for truth that either confirms or denies the evidences. If the evidence keeps pointing to what you can't believe, keep seeking to understand what's going on by looking at more examples.

After I discovered the evidences that God numbered the Bible, it still took me two years of intense study to finally convince my mind the impossible was true. I could stop doubting myself  -- God had numbered the Bible.

Hopefully I present enough solid evidence in these pages to greatly shorten your personal discovery of this truth.

What's the symbolism and related meaning for number 21? The Bible provides the interpretation of numbers for you...



A friend recently asked me what the symbolism and meaning for number 21 in the Bible was, so I decided to do a quick study and am posting some of my notes here to share to my readers. To begin with, let me first say that I discovered a long time ago the theme for number 21 is also related to themes for numbers 777 and 37. All relating to sanctification, cleansing, making clean, salvation and of opposite meanings such as evil, unsaved and things unclean. This pattern of number relationships is also found with other numbers such as 666, 36 and 18. The Bible is very consistent in how number meanings relate. I sometimes refer to this perfection of the Bible numbering as “the DNA of the Bible”.

Patterns of 777, 21 and 37…

Three of my favorite verses showing how the number 777 is related to these sanctification/salvation themes are found by examining Bible verses that have a cross Bible verse number containing the number 7777. With 31,102 verses in the Bible there are only three verses containing 7777 as part of the cross Bible verse number. By limiting my research to these very specific verses that are not arbitrarily chosen I can validate if I’m on the right track to understanding a number’s description.  If any of these verses did not pretty clearly fit my idea of the symbolism for number 777 I would have to seriously question my thinking. These three verses are the 7777th, 17777th and the 27777th Bible verses. Not coincidently, each of these verses point very clearly to themes of sanctification, consecration or things being cleansed.  I’ve shown them below:

·         The 7777th verse:  is: 1Samuel 21:4 The priest answered David and said, "There is no ordinary bread on hand, but there is consecrated bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women."
·         The 17777th verse is: Isa 6:7 He touched my mouth with it and said, "Behold, this has touched your lips; and your iniquity is taken away and your sin is forgiven."
·         The 17777th verse is: Act 24:7 "But Lysias the commander came along, and with much violence took him out of our hands,

The first of these verses speaks of bread that is consecrated or made holy. The second is in Isaiah and speaks of how the Lord has cleansed Isaiah by touching a coal to his mouth forgiving him of sin. In the third example found in the book of Acts, the verse tells how a commander had forcefully removed Paul from the temple which, in the priest minds, was removing an unclean person from the holy place. Can consider these examples for yourself. If you want more evidence consider looking at other examples such as finding the 777 verse of each book of the Bible. They will have similar related themes. These are just a small sample of evidences I found that relate the number 777 to being sanctified or purified or made holy.

Number 21…

Getting back to the number 21, I find numbers 777 (7-7-7), number  21 (3 times 7) and number 37 (3 sevens) are all related in their symbolism. There’s lots of evidence for this that I’ve documented in other of my writings that’s too much to cover in this article. For the purpose of this post, I’ll just ask you to trust me that these numbers could all be related in their symbolism.

To show some evidence for the theme of number 21, I’ll give two examples of verses that suggest that number 21 also fits the similar theme to 777.  First, the 21,000th Bible verse is Eze 22:24 "Son of man, say to her, 'You are a land that is not cleansed or rained on in the day of indignation'. Second, the 21021st Bible verse is Eze 23:13 "I saw that she had defiled herself; they both took the same way.    Note how both these verses that come from the same chapter of Ezekiel and refer to a woman unclean and has defiled herself. It is not just coincidence that these verses have very strong cross Bible verse numbers (1-31,102) related to number 21. I often use thousand based cross Bible chapter numbers as part of my first investigation into a numbers meaning. I’ve found they are always a great start to getting an idea of what they are about. For example, to investigate number 6 I examine the 6,000th Bible verse and for number 11 the 11,000th verse. With this basic idea of what number 21 may symbolize, we can take another of my favorite methods for confirming the symbolism of a Bible number – chapter numbers.

Bible Chapter Numbers as Evidence

In what I refer to as the DNA of the Bible, every number has meaning and all the number meanings are consistent wherever they are used in the Bible. So I can use chapter numbers to see how the contents of the chapters might relate to numbers I’m investigating. Chapter numbers are very easy way to investigate number meanings as they are available to anyone (unlike other numbers such as cross Bible verse numbers). I didn’t want to make this article too long and complex so I’ll conclude my evidence for the theme for number 21 by giving a brief summary of chapter 21 from the first six books of the Bible.  Using my descriptions below, notice how they very consistently refer to things being made perfect, things unclean, promises made and fulfilled or other aspects of being saved or losing salvation. There are 24 chapters of the Bible with number 21. Since I did not have time to summarize each one I decided to take the first six chapters so as not to appear to arbitrarily choose the best chapter 21s fitting my proposed symbolism. To verify this more for yourself, look at the other chapter twenty-ones in the Bible for similar themes. The pattern is true for both the Old and New Testament books.

·         Genesis 21 -- Promises and Covenants made and kept. Promise of a Son to Sarah fulfilled. Hagar and Ishmael driven out(cleansing). God's promise to make Ishmael a great nation. Abimelech and Abraham covenant over the well at Beersheba.
·         Exodus 21 --  Making things right. Rights of slaves to go free; restitution for losses...life for life, eye for eye... Death penalties; redemption of life lost, repayment for things taken.
·         Leviticus 21 -- Priests are to be pure and undefiled, free from Harlots, Holy, Consecrated, no defects, not divorced
·         Numbers 21 --  Saving Israel, cleansing the land. Israel vows to the Lord to save them. The bronze serpent saves those bit by serpents. The Lord provides a spring of water. King of Bashan and his people killed leaving no remnant of them.
·         Deuteronomy 21 -- Israel to ask forgiveness people God redeems; Israel is to remove evil from their midst; death is required for sins worthy of death; washing hands over shed blood to remove guilt;  Cleansing of women taken captive
·         Joshua 21 -- The LORD gave Israel all the land which He had sworn to give to their fathers, and they possessed it and rested there. Cities of refuge given for manslayers. Chapter ends saying God had fulfilled every promise made to the House of Israel.

Conclusion

The objective of this article was to simply demonstrate what I believe to be God’s symbolism or meaning related to the number 21 and how knowing this information helps us get further interpretation of the scriptures beyond what we currently know. It is pretty commonly stated that the Bible helps interpret itself and these examples help demonstrate that. To understand the meaning of a number you can first look at many examples related to that number and try to find a common thread of meaning running through them. Once you do this, you can verify or prove your thoughts by looking at even more examples to confirm they also fit. Once you have established a somewhat confident description of the Bible’s number meaning then we can use that meaning whenever we encounter that number for interpretation in our Bible study. For this article, to come up with these examples I first began with my original understanding that number one was related to sanctification and salvation. Then, using this information I reviewed chapters of the Bible watching for a thread of meaning that might fit this number. By finding the theme in each chapter I became aware of an entirely new knowledge of meaning contained in each chapter. This new knowledge does not change what we previously knew about it. It simply added to our understanding and helps us gain further clarity in the messages contained.

Are we contriving meanings?

Of course we all know about any research, that once we have a desired conclusion in our head, without intentionally doing so we might make our results fit the desired conclusion. That’s just the way the mind works so we have to be very conscious of watching for this error in our work. I’ve done thousands of hours of Bible study and I’m always trying to confirm very clearly the conclusions of the patterns I study. It’s hard to explain how I can be confident in the consistency of these number meanings except to say that once you’ve looked at hundreds of examples it’s pretty easy to see that the patterns are very clear and actually somewhat obvious once you know what you’re looking for. If you wonder if the symbolism for 21 could be found in other differently numbered chapters of the Bible then go examine them for yourself. I think you’ll see that the wording and themes of the text in other chapter numbers just don’t quite fit the number 21 like these do.

Valuable insights...

As you study your Bible be aware of chapter numbers and the possibility that the chapter numbers may suggest themes relating to the contents therein. Once you begin to experience these patterns for yourself it will open incredible new insights into the contents of Scripture.

What are The Bible's Redemption Pattern and Numeric Map about?

 

On Amazon -- The Redemption Pattern and Numeric Map 

Description

Most everyone has heard random comments from sermons about the symbolism behind numbers in the Bible, but the explanations given are so brief that they have little practical use in our own personal Bible study. As a result, Christians read the Bible without being able to put one of the best tools of interpretation to use in their study. This book explains not only the symbolism of Biblical numbers but more importantly describes the progressive meaning behind each number and how they relate to what the author refers to as the Bible's Redemption Pattern. Numbers not only have a consistent symbolism everywhere they are used in scripture, but each number helps describe the ten basic steps of a Christian's path of walking with God in their lives.

Similarly to "The Four Spiritual Laws" of Campus Crusade, the Redemption Pattern explains in detail the ten steps of; One-Knowing God; Two-The Appointed Redeemer who came for us; Three-God's Holiness and Righteousness; Four-Our trials and journey through the wilderness life; Five-What God demands of us and resulting blessings and consequences; Six-Our decision to cross over and turn from sin in our life; Seven-God as the Good Shepherd who uses the rod and the staff to teach us his ways to lead us to being complete;; Eight-How we become faithful believers by finally being convinced to give up our own ways to sincerely try to let God lead our lives; Nine-Our responsibility to anxiously anticipate Jesus return and faithfully serve while we await this event; and Ten-The number of final things including God's final disposition at the end of the age.

This book explains the symbolism of numbers; how to understand the Redemption Pattern steps; and most importantly, how we find this Redemption Pattern used throughout the Bible thus it being a constant reminder in scripture of God's plan for our lives. This pattern can be seen repeatedly in virtually every list of the Bible including; the Lord's Prayer; The names of ten generations from Adam to Noah; the Beatitudes; The Plagues of the Bible; feast days and more.

There's many other gems of knowledge throughout the book; explaining the numbers 72, 144, 153, 666, 777, & 1260; how 911 can be seen in scripture; the special numerical significance of John chapter 3; how numbers combine to make meaning and much more.

 

From the Author   

Once you see all the examples of how numbers are used in whatever Bible you use today, you will quickly begin to make use of them in your everyday Bible study. These principals apply to both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible so this means they also will be observed and equally useful in the study of the Torah and other religious documents.

 

About the Author   

Norm Patriquin is an everyday layman believer who over a ten year period accidentally stumbled over the Redemption Pattern and what he calls the Numeric Map of the Bible. He works today to pass on this knowledge to others showing how Biblical numbers are not a complex code or mathematical puzzle, but instead can be quickly comprehended as a very simple guide to helping us understand God's plan for our lives.

The exact middle of the Torah points to the Holy Spirit - Urim and Thummim?

I just noticed this amazing feature of the Torah this evening - December 27, 2012 and still want to do more research on this...but it seems worth sharing with those interested in such things.

The middle two verses of the Torah

Lev 8:8 He then placed the breastpiece on him, and in the breastpiece he put the Urim and the Thummim.
Lev 8:9 He also placed the turban on his head, and on the turban, at its front, he placed the golden plate, the holy crown, just as the LORD had commanded Moses.

The Torah is the five books of Moses or the Old Testament of the King James and similar Bibles. The books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy contain 5852 total verses so dividing that in half tells us that Leviticus 8:8-9 (2926th and 2927th verses of the King James Bible) are the exact center verses of the Torah books.

I've said before, I don't consider myself a Bible scholar, so what I write about are just simply my observances and opinions of patterns I study in the Bible so each person should confirm what I write here for themselves (Acts 17:11).  As I remember, Bible scholars debate as to weather Leviticus 8:8 references to the Urim and Thummin are references to God's Holy Spirit -- For the evidences I note below, I do believe they do. Assuming this is true, it is absolutely amazing that the exact two middle verses of the Torah point to what i think of as Jesus in our midst - The Spirit of God.

This evidence of the major numerical, DNA like, numbering of the Torah is also evidence for the possibility that the entire Bible is divinely numbered. This is similar to the apparently divinely appointed position of Psalm 117 which is the exact middle chapter of the Bible (595th of 1189 chapters). It has only two verses which also point to "The LORD" as the center of the KJV scriptures. I believe the reference of "The LORD" is a reference to Jesus Christ. It is an extremely unlikely coincidence this shortest and only two verse chapter of the Bible just happens to find itself as the center chapter and have text that seems to tells us the entire Bible (1st and 2nd half) are about Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Following are the only two verses in Psalm 117.
Psa 117:1 Praise the LORD, all nations; Laud Him, all peoples!
Psa 117:2 For His lovingkindness is great toward us, And the truth of the LORD is everlasting. Praise the LORD!

The middle of the Torah points to God's Holy Spirit and the middle chapter of the KJV points to the LORD Jesus -- this is incredible confirmation the Bible is the precise, preserved, Word of God. For added support these are not coincidence, check out the exact middle verses of the KJV which are Psalm 103:1-2 which both proclaim "Bless the LORD, O my soul".  God's Word is simply amazing beyond comprehension. Consider its perfection is beyond any possible human design and that the mathematically confirm-able DNA like numbering is strong evidence of the Bible's divine author being God himself.

Praise God!

Numerical Evidence for the Spiritual Nature of the Bible's 8:8 Verses

Following are a selection of the Bible's verses that have a chapter and verse reference of 8:8. Consider how they in one form or another seem to point to the spiritual nature of the Holy Spirit:
Est 8:8 "Now you write to the Jews as you see fit, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's signet ring; for a decree which is written in the name of the king and sealed with the king's signet ring may not be revoked."

Gen 8:8 Then he sent out a dove from him, to see if the water was abated from the face of the land;

Rom 8:8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

Prov 8:8 "All the utterances of my mouth are in righteousness; There is nothing crooked or perverted in them.

Neh 8:8 They read from the book, from the law of God, translating to give the sense so that they understood the reading.

Zech 8:8 and I will bring them back and they will live in the midst of Jerusalem; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God in truth and righteousness.'

Heb 8:8 For finding fault with them, He says, "BEHOLD, DAYS ARE COMING, SAYS THE LORD, WHEN I WILL EFFECT A NEW COVENANT WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND WITH THE HOUSE OF JUDAH;

Matt 8:8 But the centurion said, "Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

The recent terrorist attack in Libya is more evidence 911 is God's warning number to nations that turn from him




The recent planned terrorist attack on the Libyan embassy on September 11th seem yet another evidence that the September 11th date in history is related to Biblical number patterns associating the numbers 9-1-1 with calamity to nations that turn from God. The Bible’s gematria number patterns help us understand how such associations can exist. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gematria

Following are two Bible verses that help reveal this possibility. As unimaginable as it sounds that such a biblical pattern exists, it's very difficult to dismiss the KJV's (NIV, NASB, ESV..) Bible's many examples of 911 to this theme as coincidence. The specific nature of this message in Biblical references to 9-1-1 are beyond any possibility of them all happening by chance. 

Look closely and you will notice that 911 in the Bible is not just related to calamity, but is always related to calamity "to nations" or "peoples" turning from God. It is impossible to dismiss so many specific references as a product of chance.

Two examples of 911 associations in Bible verse numbering…

The Diaspora... (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_diaspora) Before their exile Israel was told why this calamity happened to them...
Dan 9:11 "Indeed all Israel has transgressed Your law and turned aside, not obeying Your voice; so the curse has been poured out on us, along with the oath which is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against Him.
Tower of Babel...(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel) In Genesis chapter eleven, the people had turned to other God's and were building a tower to reach heaven and that was the last rebelling act of Babel before God called calamity down on them...
Gen 11:9 Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of the whole earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of the whole earth.
It has been preached by many Bible believers that the USA is turning from God and is suffering the consequences today. This is not news to those who study God's Word, but scholars have never noticed that biblical references to God's wrath are actually associated with the digits 9, 1 and 1.

(following is a blog post I created back in July 2011)

The Sobering Number 911

If you're reading this you're probably well familiar with the term "911" as it relates to the September 11, 2001 attack on the”World” Trade Center towers in New York City. Since that infamous day, people have referred to this great calamity as simply "911". It seemed a natural label to put on this event since we also know of the number "911" being used as our common telephone number to call in emergency situations. Without any thought we would all assume that this "911" designation originated from the makers of art telephone systems, but, incredibly, the Bible shows us "911" is more likely a God defined number symbolic of the Lord's return to protect his people as well as the Lord's judgment on nations who have turned away from him. I know this sounds a far-fetched and ridiculous conclusion, but if you read on, I think the evidence found in the Bible's numbers speaks for itself.

The Tower of Babel and 911…
The Tower of Babel is about when men began to build a structure that would reach the heavens. When God saw this he decided to disperse this nation that had decided they would find a way to heaven without God - that is, their nation had turned away from God. He dispersed them by Confusing them with different languages and scattering them across the Earth. As we see in many "911" related verses, God brings calamity on nations who turn away from him.
What does the number 911 mean? Biblical Evidence 911 is a God Number Associated with Calamity or a curse to Nations
There are many different ways the Bible's numbering always point to a consistent symbolism of text associated with all the numbers. At first glance, some of these examples may appear to be contrived or coincidental comparisons of various Bible numbering to the text, But as we study more and more examples, the possibility of coincidence gets very difficult to imagine. Don't try to fit every one of these examples exactly to the 911 theme as you imagine it, but consider all the evidences together when you consider the possibility.

As you begin to take in the thought about what God might be doing with number symbolism, both in the Bible and in our world, it will change your image of the power of God. God does everything by pattern so those looking for evidence of God have no problem seeing proof of his existence....
Rom 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse

911th Bible chapterHaggai chapter 2 is the wrath of the Lord on Israel because they had turned away from God and did not come back --
Hag 2:6 "For thus says the LORD of hosts, 'Once more in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land. Hag 2:7 'I will shake all the nations; and they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory,' says the LORD of hosts.

Jeremiah chapter 9 is about God's judgment on the nation of Judah --
Jer 9:11 "I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins, A haunt of jackals; And I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant."

In Jeremiah chapter 6 which is the Bible's 19111st verse, the Lord says he will destroy Jerusalem because of their sins--
Jer 6:21 Therefore, thus says the LORD, "Behold, I am laying stumbling blocks before this people. And they will stumble against them, Fathers and sons together; Neighbor and friend will perish."

Genesis Chapter 11 contains the account of the nation of Babel because they were trying to reach heaven on their own --
Gen 11:9 Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of the whole earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of the whole earth.

2Chronicles 33: is the 11911th verse that speaks of evil done in the sight of the Lord - and the abomination of nations. Note this one of a kind cross Bible verse number of 11911 – a perfect 911 verse numbering with a very specific reference to sin of nations --
2Chr 33:2 He did evil in the sight of the LORD according to the abominations of the nations whom the LORD dispossessed before the sons of Israel.

Jeremiah 3:8, the 19011th verse tells how Israel was sent away for their adulteries - another reference to an abomination of a nation --
Jer 3:8 "And I saw that for all the adulteries of faithless Israel, I had sent her away and given her a writ of divorce, yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear; but she went and was a harlot also.

Jeremiah 19:3 is the 19411th verse tells the Lord is about to bring a calamity upon Jerusalem --
'Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Behold I am about to bring a calamity upon this place, at which the ears of everyone that hears of it will tingle.

Jeremiah 19:11 which is lso the 19419th verse, the Lord says he will break this people and this city like one would break a potter's vessel -
Jer 19:11 and say to them, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Just so will I break this people and this city, even as one breaks a potter's vessel, which cannot again be repaired; and they will bury in Topheth because there is no other place for burial.

Revelation 11:9 speaks of the battle of Armageddon where the people of tribes and nations will lay dead for 3 1/2 days --
Rev 11:9 Those from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not permit their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.

The 9110th and 9111st Bible verses - the condemnation of Solomon which brought judgment on Israel for their hearts being turned away from God --
1Kin 11:1 Now King Solomon loved many foreign women along with the daughter of Pharaoh: Moabite, Ammonite, Edomite, Sidonian, and Hittite women, 1Kin 11:2 from the nations concerning which the LORD had said to the sons of Israel, "You shall not associate with them, nor shall they associate with you, for they will surely turn your heart away after their gods." Solomon held fast to these in love.

Daniel 9:11 condemns Israel for transgressing God's law and turning away from him. Daniel chapter 9 is one of the great prophecy chapters of the Bible.
Dan 9:11 "Indeed all Israel has transgressed Your law and turned aside, not obeying Your voice; so the curse has been poured out on us, along with the oath which is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against Him.

Hosea 9:11 tells of the condemnation of Ephraim --
Hos 9:11 As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird-- No birth, no pregnancy and no conception!

Genesis 9:11 speaks of the condemnation of man and God's judgment of the great flood --
Gen 9:11 "I establish My covenant with you; and all flesh shall never again be cut off by the water of the flood, neither shall there again be a flood to destroy the earth."

1Chronicles 19:11 is also the 10919th Bible verse (also the 666th verse) tells of God's judgment to the Ammonite who are symbolic of great sin --
1Chr 19:11 But the remainder of the people he placed in the hand of Abshai his brother; and they arrayed themselves against the sons of Ammon.

Revelation 9:11 speaks of the people who have ever them the king of the abyss --
Rev 9:11 They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon.

Similarly to the great flood Exodus 14:21, which is the 1911th Bible verse, tells how the Lord protected his people by dividing the waters and turning them into dry land --
Exo 14:21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD swept the sea back by a strong east wind all night and turned the sea into dry land, so the waters were divided.

Also similar to the great flood and to Exodus 14:21 which spoke of the waters being divided, Nehemiah 9:11 also speaks of the great flood. It does not appear coincidence that this 9:11 verse is directly related the numeric reference to Exodus 14:21, the1911th Bible verse --
Neh 9:11 "You divided the sea before them, So they passed through the midst of the sea on dry ground; And their pursuers You hurled into the depths, Like a stone into raging waters.

Exodus 19:11 speaks of the Lord coming down before all the people. Of course he is coming both to save his people and to judge the unfaithful --
Exo 19:11 and let them be ready for the third day, for on the third day the LORD will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

Hebrews 9:11 also speaks of Jesus, the High Priest, return to Earth --
Heb 9:11 But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation;


To see more evidence, there are a total of 37 Bible verses with a chapter and verse reference of 9:11. Investigate some of those not shown here for yourself. See books...

The Most Compelling of All Evidences that God Numbered the Bible... 31 Topic Transition Verses


The KJV and like Bibles have 31,102 verses and every 1000th verse is a God established section transition marker

God said with him "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE", but could he have arranged the Bible precisely into 31 sections - each exactly 1000 verses in length? The evidence for this supernatural perfection of Biblical writing is near impossible to ignore. Of course, there's no way for the average person to be able to count off and find every 1000th verse in scripture, but if you could you would find the below list of verses, each one of them being at a very definite transition point in the Bible's text. In every case, a key event or statement is found that ends one section of scripture and begins another. For example, in the 4000th Bible verse at Numbers 10:11 the Pillar of Cloud first moves to begin Israel's wandering; in the 5000th verse Moses asks to enter the promised land and is denied - ending this episode of Israel's history; and in the 9000th verse Solomon's Temple is completed and at this exact place, God enters it in a cloud completing another episode in Biblical history. All the other of the 31 transition verses have an equally compelling message to declare. I believe future published copies of the Torah and the Bible will specifically note these 1000 verse sections so everyone may study them.

BUT SUCH SUPERNATURAL CONSTRUCTION IS IMPOSSIBLE ACCORDING TO WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT HOW THE BOOKS OF THE BIBLE CAME TOGETHER... Yes, but...
 Mrk 10:27 Looking at them, Jesus *said, "With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God."
Why is this so compelling?
What makes these one thousand verse sections so compelling is that the transition verses that mark them are so clearly visible and that their exact 1000 verse locations could not be contrived.  It's very difficult for people to accept other evidences of numbering perfection I have written about because the numbering/text patterns might possibly be contrived out of my imagination. But these 1000th verse section verses could not have been contrived by me. One might disagree that they are transition points, but these are a very definate set of repeatable evidences that together as a whole tell a story that I believe says only a supernatural God could have created the KJV Bible as we know it today.
