#17 Bible pattern related to; cleansing--judgment--flood--blood--water--rain--cutting off--raising up

Just because it is the occasion of the 17th of the month, I thought I would offer some evidences of the many verses and numbers of the Bible that show the relationship of #17 to judgment; such as the Ark of Noah that both was risen and came to rest on the 17th of the month - often found in #17 numbered verses. Throughout the Bible we find #17 related to these themes such as it related to "the life of the flesh is in the blood".

Below is a table that shows #17 related verses and numbers associated with them; the cross-Bible verse number (BV); the cross-Bible chapter number (BC); the cross-book verse numbers(BKV) and the book, chapter and verse numbers.Observe the text along with the numbers and see if you don't wonder if there is a pattern to be seen in the Bible's numbers related to seventeen.

Note that the Bible's gematria of numbers will relate numbers such as 107, 71, 117 and others as #17 related.

Bible's verses point to historic event of Israel approved to become a nation



On November 29, 1947 (11/29/47), in an historic event, the UN voted to create the nation of Israel. On this date, Israel was approved to become a nation – an event that was prophesied by God, more than 2000 years before, to one day occur. The people of Israel would not actually declare their independence until the next year on May 14, 1948 and did not finally take over Jerusalem until June 7, 1967 at the end of the 6 day war – 6 days they fought and the 7th day they rested (67) – occurred on 6/7/1967 (written about in other blog posts).

The number 29 in the Bible is very consistently related to the symbolism of the return of the Lord when he comes to free his people. As impossible as it sounds, the Bible’s DNA like perfection in numbering reveals that chapter and verse numbers of the Bible can be taken together to have a direct correspondence to messages contained in the text. I often look for common patterns in like referenced verses to understand a number’s symbolism. Since I have found many historic dates that seem to have numbers that associate to those same numbers in Biblical symbolism, I recently decided to look at the Bible’s nineteen verses that have chapter and verse 11:29 to see if their theme somehow relates to the 11/29/1947 date when Israel took their first step to become a nation. The evidence of these verses being symbolically related to this historic event seems compelling and this article will hopefully demonstrate this possibility. On November 29th, it appears God was clearing the way for Israel to become a nation, and in the Bible’s 11:29 verses we see many instances where the Lord seems to be, in various ways, calling and delivering his people.

Although the pattern is not obvious in every 11:29 verse, there is a preponderance of evidence in the text that speaks specifically of the Lord calling out and leading his people to the Promised Land. The Bible’s DNA like pattern is so precise that it seems clear these verses are not just about people being delivered, but about the process of delivering them – a pattern that is pretty difficult to dismiss as coincidental.

Below is  a list of the most compelling examples of these 19 verses having a reference of chapter 11, verse 29. Using the examples, you can confirm the pattern for yourself or evaluate them to discern if you see any sort of a pattern in them. Of course, most people’s first reaction is that such supposed similarities are likely a result of coincidence - that might be a good explanation except that you can examine like referenced verses throughout  the Bible, and for any verse chapter/verse combination, observe a common theme running in them. One such similar pattern that has been noticed and mentioned by many scholars (yet dismissed as coincidence) is the “God so loved the world” like message found in many of the Bible’s 3:16 verses (John 3:16, 2 Cor 3:16, 1John 3:16, Exodus 3:16, Ruth 3:16, 1Samuel 3:16, Joel 3:16…). This is a wondrous pattern you can examine for yourself in your own Bible. 

While you are looking at the following list of 11:29 verses (or others you can find in your own Bible), be aware that numbers have both a positive and negative/opposite symbolism, so you will find some 11:29 related text that seems to refer to themes that represent the opposite meaning of being delivered. You might need to read through the list multiple times before the pattern starts to become clear to you. Be discerning, yet open-mined to the mysteries of God, as you examine the evidence.

Jer 32:27 "Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh; is anything too difficult for Me?"

Examples of the Bible’s 11:29 verses showing a pattern of God in the process of delivering his people:

Deu 11:29 "It shall come about, when the LORD your God brings you into the land where you are entering to possess it… (The Lord leading the people out of bondage...to save them)

Judg 11:29 Now the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, so that he passed through Gilead and Manasseh…(very similar in nature to the Deu 11:29 passage)

Dan 11:29 "At the appointed time he will return and come into the South, … (the appointed deliverer will come for you)

Matt 11:29 "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. (The Lord calling his people)

Mrk 11:29 Jesus said.."I will ask you one question…then I will tell you by what authority I do these things. (Jesus has came into Jerusalem, cleared the temple, condemned religious leaders and more – demonstrating how he was delivering his people).

Luke 11:29 …"This generation is a wicked generation; it seeks for a sign…no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonahd. (the sign to be given is that he will restore life as he did with Jonah)

John 11:29 when she heard it, she got up quickly and was coming to Him. (Jesus had returned and was calling for Mary – later in this 1008th Bible chapter about being restored (18=9+9 or 2x9), Lazarus was restored to life.)

Act 11:29 in the proportion that any of them had means, each of them determined to send a contribution for the relief of the brethren… (a restoring contribution was “determined”, not yet sent)

Rom 11:29 for the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable. (again, about God calling those he is, or will, restore)

Heb 11:29 By faith they passed through the Red Sea as though they were passing through dry land… (The Lord delivering his people - again, like the Deu 11:29 example)

Above are the most compelling ten of a total of the 19 Bible verses with chapter and verse of 11:29. Others not shown here reveal a similar pattern.  These examples are not intended as proof of the common theme running through 11:29 verses, but are intended to get you wondering if God could have designed such mysteries into his word? No one set of examples will convince you, but the more examples you observe, the more you will be convinced the patterns cannot be the result of anything but the design of a supernatural and divine and loving God.

Earthquake & Tsunami in Japan - 9.0 magnitude quake on 3-11-2011

Written on 3/11/2011 (#311), the day of the great 9.0 Japan earthquake 

I would not call myself a Bible expert and certainly would not claim to know much about prophecy, but I seem to be able to observe patterns in the Bible's numbers and text and the evidence seems to confirm God has left much evidence about him in both the numbering and text. I'm leaving here some of what I observe about earthquake, and earthquake related numbers in scripture. This is evidence for you to judge for yourself - see if God has something he wants to tell you from his word.
  • The word earthquake occurs 19 times in the Bible. Different translations report different number of occurrences, but I find the KJV seems more consistent in number/word patterns, so I trust #19 is probably alikely association with the word earthquake.
  • #19 seems about our sin and that we are to abstain from it - To be as consistent as I can in interpreting number meanings, one of the first places I look in the Bible when I study number meanings is the nn000th and nn000th+1 verses (I've written elsewhere about the 1000 verse sections of the Bible). In this case, the 19000th-19001th verse. The 19,001th verse is the first verse in this 1000 verse section of the Bible and it fits what I've seen elsewhere for the symbolism of #19. Here's the verse: 19,001st Bible verse - Jer 2:35 Yet you said, 'I am innocent; Surely His anger is turned away from me.' Behold, I will enter into judgment with you Because you say, 'I have not sinned.'

    Another example of a #19 related verse (check out several 19:19 verses and you will see the pattern) - Deu 19:19 then you shall do to him just as he had intended to do to his brother. Thus you shall purge the evil from among you.
  • #19 seems often about warnings for us to turn from sin. It is no accident #911 is closely related to #19. Here's the 11,911th Bible verse - 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. Look at other 9:11 verses to see this pattern - one of the most well known is Daniel 9:11.
  • #911 seems about judgments for nations or countries turning from God and is not as often seen about individual sin.
  • #19 and earthquake - The first occurrence of the word "earthquake" in the Bible is found at 1Kings 19:11 - interesting we find #911 in this reference. The first references to things in the Bible are important because they often guide us in understanding them, so this would seem to be a good verse to examine to understanding earthquakes in the Bible - 1Kin 19:11 So He said, "Go forth and stand on the mountain before the LORD." And behold, the LORD was passing by! And a great and strong wind was rending the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.
  • #19 warning and instruction from God - in 1Kings chapter 19 the Lord comes to Elijah and gives him warning and tells him what to do - go read it and then consider the entire chapter a sort of guide to understanding #19, earthquakes and God.
These, along with many other examples, tell me that God uses earthquakes to warn us and to tell us only the Lord is God. Following are a full list of the Bible's verses containing the word "earthquake". Examine the 19 occurrences of this word in the 16 verses and see what God's Word tells you about this subject.
NOTE: Don't try to make the pattern fit everywhere - like all studies we do of scripture, we never sort it all out. Instead, look for a general pattern across all the verses.
1Kin 19:11 So He said, "Go forth and stand on the mountain before the LORD." And behold, the LORD was passing by! And a great and strong wind was rending the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind. And after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake.

1Kin 19:12 After the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a sound of a gentle blowing.

Isa 29:6 From the LORD of hosts you will be punished with thunder and earthquake and loud noise, With whirlwind and tempest and the flame of a consuming fire.

Amo 1:1 The words of Amos, who was among the sheepherders from Tekoa, which he envisioned in visions concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

Zech 14:5 You will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD, my God, will come, and all the holy ones with Him!

Matt 24:7 "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes.

Matt 27:54 Now the centurion, and those who were with him keeping guard over Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that were happening, became very frightened and said, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

Matt 28:2 And behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it.

Mrk 13:8 "For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines. These things are merely the beginning of birth pangs.

Luke 21:11 (#311 as in 3/11/2011?) and there will be great earthquakes, and in various places plagues and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.

Act 16:26 and suddenly there came a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison house were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were unfastened.

Rev 6:12 I looked when He broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood;

Rev 8:5 Then the angel took the censer and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

Rev 11:13 (#311/#113 as in 3/11/2011?) And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

Rev 11:19 (911)And the temple of God which is in heaven was opened; and the ark of His covenant appeared in His temple, and there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder and an earthquake and a great hailstorm.

Rev 16:18 And there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake, such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth, so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty.

My website offers more evidence for the perfection in the Bible's numbers that I refer to as God's DNA like Numeric Map.

Not Four Spiritual Laws, but Ten Steps of Redemption in the Bible


n 1956 Bill Bright, of Campus Crusade for Christ, developed the “Four Spiritual Laws” as a way to communicate the concise message of Christianity to the unchurched world. These four precepts were communicated as a brief story that laid out God’s basic message for the world.

Campus Crusade’s Four Spiritual Laws
1.         Law One: God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.
2.         Law Two: Man is sinful and separated from God, thus cannot know and experience God’s plan for his life.
3.         Law Three: Jesus Christ is God’s only provision for man’s sin. Through Him you can know and experience God’s love and plan for your life.
4.         Law Four: We must individually receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God’s love and plan for our lives.

            If you ask a Christian about God’s plan for the world he likely will recite some version of these laws. These four steps are a great way to begin to explain God’s most basic plan of salvation, but they fall short of being a full picture of the plan God has for us. If we attend a typical new members’ class at just about any church we will get a more extensive version of these laws, but in the absence of knowing God’s specific plan, there are as many ways to explain this, as there are those who teach it. Like this four step plan, it appears God has left his own plan of salvation written in the pattern and structure of every aspect of the Bible; every list; every chapter, every verse; every number and likely every letter of his Word. The symbolism of the numbers 1-10 correspond to the text associated with them. Not only is the plan present in the Bible, it is confirmed and pointed out by the numerics of God's Word.

God Has Written His Own Ten-step Plan of Salvation
After so many years of reading Scripture and trying to discern in our own way what God’s plan is for our lives, now we possibly find that God has actually written out his ten-step plan of redemption and spread it throughout His Word as a set of instructions to explain our path with him. Like Campus Crusade’s Four Spiritual Laws, these ten redemption pattern themes explain in more detail the steps we should understand and follow if we are to become one of his faithful servants.
            I refer to the ten steps as God’s Redemption Pattern, and it could be thought of as God’s “Ten Spiritual Laws.”  The Redemption Pattern is an amazing structural organization underlying all text in the Bible. The following list is my basic way of communicating the concepts of the Redemption Pattern. These are very high level concepts which are found in different symbolic ways throughout scripture. This list represents the positive symbolism associated with each step - there is also an opposite or negative side to each one of them as well. The basic symbolism of the ten steps are:
  1. God/Creation - We learn we are separated apart from God due to sin - each to its kind
  2. Jesus - That God has appointed and sent a deliverer/redeemer who did come for us
  3. Holy Spirit - He is holy and righteous - We learn about God's spirit in our midst
  4. Fallen Creation - We seen men are lost in the wilderness without God (40 and 40 years, 40 days)
  5. Covenant Statutes and Ordinances - Instructions we must know before entering the promised land
  6. Sin/Redemption - Crossing over - Each person has to have courage and take steps to cross over with God going before us. Admitting our sin and turning from it.
  7. Becoming complete - The Good shepherd tends his sheep with rod and staff. Accepting Jesus is just the first step, then he leads, guides, and disciplines us in our growth.
  8. A new beginning/The Godly remnant - blessed/saved by God - 8 saved in the ark; baptism; circumcision. We reach a point where we are dedicated servants, prepared to serve Jesus.
  9. The Future - Things to happen; waiting and serving faithfully until Jesus return. Once we are servants, we have a responsibility to serve and persevere until we are one day with Jesus. #9 is also related to rapture or events such as being taken up.
  10. Last Things - The Day of the Lord; Judgment and wrath await unbelievers, while believers will enjoy the Marriage Feast of the Lamb. #10 also seems associated with the Jews coming to know Jesus and being saved.

God Wrote the Bible to Mirror the Ten Steps
As God has inspired the text of the Bible, he has also caused every number and list and all other parts of scriptures to be written in a structure that reflects the ten steps in his plan for man. God repeats his plan over and over again in his word. As well as being a constant reminder of the walk, it also gives us a rich set of tools that help us understand where we are on the growth path and what the objectives are at each step along the way.

Each of the ten points in God’s pattern is associated with the numbers one to ten. Although the pattern is not about numbers, God associates numbers with each point in the pattern. Every number in the Bible can be broken down into its separate numeric digits, and the association of these digits to God’s plan.In a mysterious way I find hard to explain, any combination of numbers seems to relate directly to equivalent themes found in associated text. The Bible's numbers act as a way to validate the perfection of God's Word; guide us in our understanding what is says; give us deep insights into the meaning of the text; and I suspect (once we understand them), are likely a key to understanding Bible prophecy. I don't think we will ever fully understand the numbers, but I believe one day God will show us how his entire plan was precisely coded right before our eyes in the scriptures.

A Great Guide and Evidence for the Pattern - the 1st Ten Full Bible Books
We discover the perfection of the Bible and validate the Redemption Pattern by seeing it throughout the scriptures; in the books of the Bible; in lists such as the ten commandments; in sections of important passages such as the ten parts of the Lord's Prayer; in symbolism of the Bible's numbers found in the text, and many other places. The pattern is everywhere - so to confirm it, we simply observe it in a consistent way in every part of scripture.

When I first looked to see if the pattern could be seen in the messages of the books of the Bible, I was puzzled because the symbolism did not seem to fit after the 9th book - 1Samuel. After much struggling about how the pattern could be imperfect here, it came to me (I suspect God's spirit guided me) that maybe the pattern of the text would fit the pattern of Bible book numbering if I would count the books differently than we traditionally do. I later learned that if Icounted all the split books (like 1st and 2nd Samuel) as a single book,  the pattern fell perfectly into place in the numbers of all books of the Bible.

I can only speculate as to the reason, but it seems the Bible is structured intentionally by God with two sets of book numbers; the normal 66 book count we know today; and another hidden count of 57 books that counts split books as a single book. Using this 57 book count, we then have one of the best evidences for God's perfect ten part redemption pattern found in the Bible. The text and messages of  1st ten books fit the pattern and symbolism I presented above. The following list shows the number, the basic concept associated with the number, and how the text of the book seems to validate and itself be confirmed by the number association.

  1. God - Genesis - creation and how men are continually separated from God and keep getting separated into groups that either follow God's ways or do not. Consider the 1st Bible chapter where everything is separated by their own kind. One is about being counted - as an individual member of some overall category or kind.
  2. Redeemer Sent - Exodus - Moses is sent by God to free his people and begin them on their journey to the promised land. Number two seems about relationship/love and being joined.
  3. Holiness of God/Holy Spirit - Leviticus - where we learn of the holiness and perfection of God and how we can have God living in our midst. We must understand our sin and God's holiness.
  4. Wilderness Wandering - Numbers - Israel wandered in the desert for almost 40 years (4) suffering in trials and being cleansed in the process - finally ready to enter the promised land. An example of our wandering without God that hopefully will result in our seeking him.
  5. Statutes and Covenants - Deuteronomy - Why were the ten commandments repeated in Deuteronomy? I suspect because before the people can enter the promised land, they must know the requirements for entering, and understand the consequences of not doing things God's way. It is the same for us - before we can enter the special places of our inheritance, we must understand what is required of us (I'm not necessarily speaking of basic salvation here, but something deeper).
  6. Sin and Redemption/Crossing over - Joshua - once we understand what we are commanded to do, we are to cross over the water (Moses in the Basket/The Jordan/The Flood/Sea of Galilee...) knowing God goes before us. We must have the courage to take the steps. We are recognizing our sin, turning from it (at least that's our intention) and in the process, are being redeemed.
  7. Becoming Complete - Judges - Although the people tried to rid of the strongholds of sin in the promised land (Joshua) - they failed to completely do so. They have more work to do to become complete. This represents a repeated process we go through in our lives of trying to do things God's way, failing and the Lord continuing to be faithful to redeem over and over again - until one day we are ready to become fully his. We see this trying and failing pattern repeated many times in the book of Judges, until at some point that God decides, we become a faithful godly servants - we see this in the next book - Ruth..
  8. Godly/faithful servants - Ruth - Upon becoming complete (at least complete enough), we become like Naomi and Ruth who have returned from Moab back to the promised land and become a blessing to others. Boaz (Jesus) redeems us with a price and we become his.
  9. (The Future) Faithful servants persevering until Jesus return - Samuel - Once we become a faithful servant we are to be serving the Lord while we await his future return. Every step of the Redemption Pattern has it's positive and negative side, and in the books of 1/2 Samuel we find examples of both - successful and unsuccessful servants of God - Saul and David. These are our examples of how to serve God well, and what not serving him well looks like.
  10. Last/Final Things/Salvation vs Judgment - 1st/2nd Kings - In the 9000th verse of the Bible the temple was completed; God entered it; and we then find the Lord standing before his people (1Kings 8:14). A pattern that seems to show what Jesus return will look like. Following Jesus standing before the people, the remaining chapters of 1/2 Kings tell us of the history of events leading to the final judgments and exiles of Israel. This tenth book representing the tenth step of the redemption pattern seems to show the judgment that will one day we will all participate in.
 The first ten books of the Bible are maybe the best explanation and guide to the redemption pattern I know of - but this is just the beginning of an endless list of examples. Another great evidence can be observed in the first ten chapters of the first book of the Bible. In Genesis chapters 1-10 we find the same number/text pattern we find in the first ten books of the Bible. They are: Creation/separation by kind (chapter 1); Adam/man sent (2); sin and separation from God (3); wilderness wandering begins/Cain (4); summary of blessings/curses of generations (5); God fed up with man's sin and instructions to build the ark (6); the cleansing flood (7); the remnant of 8 saved (8); The covenant with Noah and future generations/the rainbow (9); and the judgment/separations of nations at Babel (10).

I'm really not a Bible expert and don't claim to totally understand all about God's Redemption Pattern, but I think I'm in the ballpark (pretty close). If you disagree with my explanation that's fine, more importantly, recognize the pattern exists and is there to guide us in our understanding of God and his instructions for our salvation. In past and future blog entries I try to explain more about God's pattern and related number symbolism.

Twitter Tweets for AmazingWord for the last month

I've had so little time to think and write in the past few weeks that the best I've done is to get on Twitter and share snippits of my studies and own wanderings. Here's some of the ones for the last month...

#999 is about last things before a major transition or event
After #999, #1000th chapter-God's Promise, John 3:16 God..gave #Jesus, His only begotten Son...that whoever believes in Him shall not perish
The #bible's DNA like numbering forms patterns that help us interpret; my interpretations certainly can be wrong, but patterns remain
21,999th #bible verse-God fed up with sins of nation, #999=last things; 22,000th Dan 9:11(911) curse poured out on nation http://is.gd/2vt70
#999 another "taken up/rapture" type - The 19909th verse Jer 38:13 they pulled Jeremiah up lifted him out of the cistern #apologetics #Jesus
For fun-#bible matches numbering and text; in the 10,110th (10,10) verse 2Kin 20:11 the LORD brought shadow on the stairway back "ten" steps
#999 in #bible; similar to being "taken up" to be kept in a place; the 9990th verse 2Kin 17:6 In 9th year Israel captured and carried away
#9/#999 & #prophecy 1Kings 8:13; 299th chap; 8999th ver; Temple finished; God enters in; 9000th verse-the King (Jesus) appears #teamjesus
#999 and #prophecy John 2, the 999th chapter; the wedding; passover; the bridegroom called; water to wine; clears the temple #jews believed
More #rapture like #999 scriptures-the 22,999th verse in 919th chapter-Zech 8:22 So many peoples and nations will seek the LORD in Jerusalem
#prophecy in the #bible and #999 - 20,999th verse Eze 22:22 'As silver is melted in the furnace, so you will be melted in the midst of it...
#endtimes - another #999 number about #lastdays - 9399th verse 1Kin 19:11 (911) the LORD was passing by! And a great wind and #earthquake...
Numbers guide us-like the 24,000th-the 31,000th-Rev 18:6 consequences about to be poured out; immediately before this God's people called up
Numbers guide understanding; the 24,000th verse Matt 24:42 highlights the "Day" of the Lord; 23,999th immediately before-faithful taken up!

Biblical Number Symbolism and Numbering not to be Feared
I suspect Satan knew about God's DNA like #Biblical numbers and has spent centuries preparing us to fear and distrust their study  #theology
#Biblical #Numbers - Are guideposts to more accurate understanding and interpretation of scriptures and not to be feared #apologetics

Don't believe Bible's chapter and verse are divinely inspired? Do you think God could do it if he wanted to? Of course! Let evidence decide

Pattern of Number Symbolism Seen In Bible Books
Book number symbolism; 10th book- 1&2 Kings; #10 endings, completion, final things; God "finished" w Israel-exiles them-promises restoration
Book number symbolism; 9th book 1-2 Samuel; #9 persevering in service waiting for Jesus return; Saul & David how not to, and how to serve
Book number symbolism; 8th bk-Ruth-#8 remnant saved-given the land; 8th Bible chapter Gen 8-ark rests remnant of 8 saved from destruction
Book number symbolism; 7th bk-Judges-#7 becoming complete/saved-trying/failing again & again-until we finally give up our ways to follow God
Book number symbolism; 6th book-Joshua-"crossing over" taking the land; sin/repenting from sin; 6th Bible chapter-God was sorry he made man
Book number symbolism; 5th book-Deuteronomy-statutes/covenants/rules/promises/blessings/curses; rules before entering the land-instructions
Bible book number symbolism; 4th book- Numbers; time in wilderness wandering; about things of this world-40 days/years trials #jesustweeters
Bible book number symbolism; 3rd book is Leviticus; #3 the holiness/righteousness of God - God's Holy Spirit; 3rd part of Trinity #teamjesus
Bible book number symbolism; 2nd book Exodus - #2 a deliverer/redeemer is sent; 2nd part of Trinity- Jesus comes for us - #apologetics
Text of Bible books line up number symbolism; 1st bk Genesis; #1 God, beginnings, creation, things separated/"counted" by kind
Book nor symbolism - the 22nd book Lamentations - has 5 chapters, 4 w/22 verses, 5th w/66; 22 is symbolic for Jesus the suffering servant
Bible has 57 "full" books with books like 1-2 Kings counted as one - why important? numerical patterns show symbolism of nbrs line up w/text

#40 is a number about the wilderness experience, testing, wandering; #39 a number for Israel - not exited the wilderness yet? #apologetics

I Continue to Reshare my Most Compelling Evidences...
Matthew chapter 1 is the 930th Bible chapter and first of New Testament; There are 39 books in OT (93 in reverse); 39 is number for Israel
Mystery-how? Psalm 117-the center Bible chapter; the shortest chapter; points to division of OT/NT "Praise the Lord" #apologetics #theology
Matthew 1-the 930th and 1st chapter of the New Testament-Psalm 117:2 the 1930th verse of Psalms-points to begin of NT #theology #apologetics
Malachi 4-the 929th and last chapter of the Old Testament; Psalm 117:1 the 1929th verse of Psalms-points to end of OT #theology #apologetics
Center chapter of the Christian Bible - Psalm 117 - v2 the truth of the LORD is everlasting. Praise the LORD! #theology #apologetics
Shortest chapter of the Bible - just two verses - Psalm 117 - v1 Praise the LORD, all nations; Laud Him, all peoples! #apologetics #theology
Shortest chapter of the Bible - just two verses - Psalm 117 - v1 Praise the LORD, all nations; Laud Him, all peoples!
