Speed of Light

Professor Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

Albert Einstein first predicted that light travels the same speed everywhere in our universe. The speed of light (in a vacuum) is established at 299,792,458 meters per second.

Before Einstein, mass and energy were regarded as separate entities. But with his elegant equation E = mc², Einstein forever changed the way physicists view the universe. In this equation, c is the speed of light, which when squared is a very large number indeed. The equation predicts that nothing with mass can move as fast as light, or faster. For mass to travel at the speed of light would require infinite energy, which is impossible; hence the cosmic speed limit.

Without such constraints, photons (and other mass-less particles) can travel at the speed of light, but no faster.

In Einstein's famous equation, the Energy of matter (in joules) is calculated by multiplying an object's mass (in kilograms) by the speed of light (in meters per second) squared. So, c² is 8.98755 x 10¹⁶. The first occurrence of 898755 in the decimal digits of pi is followed by the four digits 9595. The first occurrence of this number in pi begins from position 1118, which is the gematria value of the Shema (Deu 6:4).

9595 is the numerical value of the 29,870th verse in the Bible (KJV). The first occurrence of 29870 in pi is preceded by the three digits 888, the numerical value of Ιησους ("Jesus").

"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" 2 Ti 3:16 verse # 29,870
ινα αρτιος ηι ο του θεου ανθρωπος προς παν εργον αγαθον εξηρτισμενος
61 681 18 70 770 484 1310 450 131 228 134 1048 = 9595

The first occurrence of the speed of light in pi begins from position 623,556,156:

623 + 556 + 156 = 1335

This number is conspicuous in the Book of Daniel, specifically chapter 12 verse 12, so it's noteworthy that the position of the speed of light's second occurrence in pi reduces to 1212:

1 + 169 + 634 + 408 = 1212

"Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days." Dan 12:12

The first and third occurrence of 299792458 in pi are each followed by the two digits 55. The position of this third occurrence reduces to 1963, which raises an interesting possibility:

1 + 987 + 479 + 496 = 1963
1963 + 55 = 2018
2018 = 5778 on the Hebrew calendar

Extrapolating further, this third occurrence of the speed of light is followed by the four digits 5561, which is the numerical value of a warning verse from the Gospel of Mark:

         "Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is." Mar 13:33
            βλεπετε αγρυπνειτε και προσευχεσθε ουκ οιδατε γαρ ποτε ο καιρος εστιν
                    427          954         31           1674           490   390        104     455   70     401    565   =   5561

The speed of light in a vacuum is 186,282 miles/sec. Beginning from this position in pi are the four digits 7547, which is the numerical value of a verse uniting Jews and Gentiles in Christ:

                          "For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father." Eph 2:18
                              οτι δι αυτου εχομεν την προσαγωγην οι αμφοτεροι εν ενι πνευματι προς τον πατερα
                          380 14 1171 770    358    1315           80 1096 55 65     886    450    420    487 =   7547

this is the 16th occurrence of 7547 in pi
276 is the 23rd triangular number
the first occurrence of 23 in pi begins from position 16
the first occurrence of 23 in e begins from position 16

The term "one Spirit" (ενι πνευματι) has a gematria value of 951. Beginning from position 951 in pi are the two digits 18, which is the gematria value of חי ("life"). To either side lies the second and third occurrences of the triangular number 5778:

5778 is the 107th triangular number
beginning from position 107 in pi are the two digits 86, the gematria value of אלהים (Elohim)

The Alpha And The Omega

The letters Aleph (א) and Tav (ת) are the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet. The Hebrew word את (eth) can mean plowshare, but is most often used in the Bible as an untranslatable grammatical mark used to point out more definitely the object of a verb or preposition. It's first appearance is the fourth word in the Bible's very first verse:

בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ׃
"In the beginning God created (aleph tav) the heaven and the earth:"

The generally untranslated aleph tav has a gematria value of 401, which is the 79th prime number. Remarkably, beginning at position 299,792,458 in pi are the five digits 40179, giving not only the gematria of the aleph tav, but also it's prime number index.

the 401st word in the Bible is הארץ ("the earth")
הארץ ("the earth") has a gematria value of 296
the 296th word in the Bible is ארץ ("earth") from Gen 1:24

The sixth word in the Bible, ואת (vayeth) has a gematria value of 407 and serves a similar grammatical purpose. Vayeth Ha'Eretz (ואת הארץ) is translated "and the earth" and has a combined gematria of 407 + 296 = 703. In another apparent coincidence, the first occurrence of 703 in pi begins from position 407:

The word ואת (vayeth) appears 2251 times in the Bible. The first occurrence of 2251 in pi begins from position 1840. The 1840th verse in the Bible (Exo 12:23) concerns preparation for the Exodus. Israel is to prepare for the coming redemption, and avoid destruction by marking the doorposts of their homes with blood. This event is celebrated as the Passover (Pesach) holiday.

Exo 12:23 gives 12 x 23 = 276 (the number of souls saved from the shipwreck, see Act 27:37)

These preparations were necessary, as Moses explained to the elders of Israel "for the LORD will pass over the door".

the phrase "for the LORD will pass over the door" (ופסח יהוה על הפתח) has a gematria value of 773
the word "Moses" appears in 773 Bible verses (KJV)

the Hebrew word פסח (pesach) appears 26 times in the Bible, the gematria value of the Tetragrammaton (יהוה)
the Hebrew word פסח (pesach) meaning "pass over" Strongs 6452 has a gematria value of 148
the Hebrew word פתח (pethach) meaning "door" Strongs 6607 has a gematria value of 488
148 + 488 = 636

Beginning from position 636 in pi are the three digits 960, preceded by 5778.

the first seventy verses in the Bible consist of 960 Hebrew letters

In water, light travels at 75% of it's speed in a vacuum. In a phenomenon first demonstrated by Russian physicist Pavel Cherenkov in 1934, electrons created by water cooled nuclear reactors can travel at speeds faster than light through water. Just as a sonic boom results from an object traveling faster than the speed of sound, a "luminal boom" results when these electrons exceed the speed of light through water. This is called "Cherenkov Radiation" and is usually blue or ultraviolet (see photograph). The cosmic speed limit still applies, however, as matter can never exceed 299,792,458 m/s.

Pavel Cherenkov was awarded the Nobel Physics prize in 1958.

Albert Einstein died on April 18th, 1955
Pavel Cherenkov was awarded the Nobel Prize in a ceremony on December 10th, 1958
from April 18th, 1955 to December 10th, 1958 is 1332 days

The Greek version of Aleph Tav, the first and last letters of the alphabet, is Alpha Omega. Four times in Revelation Jesus said he was the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end (Rev 1:8, 1:11, 21:6, 22:13). In the original Greek (Nestle-Aland textform), Alpha Omega is written as αλφα ω, which has a numerical value of 1332.

The Aleph Tav (את) appears a total of 7,372 times in Scripture. It's first occurrence is in Gen 1:1, which has a gematria value of 2,701. These two numbers adjoin relatively early in the decimal digits of pi; the sixth occurrence of 2701 is followed by the fifth occurrence of 7372.

What is remarkable is that earlier occurrences of each number are followed by the same 6 digits in pi.

the 3rd occurrence of 7372 is followed by 319898
the 4th occurrence of 2701 is followed by 319898

Calculating prophetic years of 360 days:

319898 days = 888 years and 218 days
888 = the numerical value of Ιησους ("Jesus")
218 is the gematria value of ירח ("moon")
the first occurrence of 218 in pi is followed by 6117, the gematria value of Deu 30:19 (choose life )

This verse sets before us life and death:

the word "life" appears in 409 Bible verses (KJV)
the word "death" appears in 342 Bible verses (KJV)
409 - 342 = 67
the first occurrence of 67 in pi begins from position 98, and is followed by the two digits 98

So 319898 is 31 followed by 9898.

the 31st word in the Bible is האור ("the light") when God saw the light, that it was good (Gen 1:4)
the 67th word is הרקיע ("the firmament") when God made the firmament (Gen 1:7)
31 + 67 = 98
both the 31st and 67th words in the Bible are preceded by את (Aleph Tav)

The light represents the difference between life and death. Jesus is that light:

"Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." Joh 8:12
                παλιν ουν ο ιησους αυτοις ελαλησε λεγων εγω ειμι το φως του κοσμου ο
                    171 520 70 888    981 279    888 808 65 370 1500 770 800 70
                     ακολουθων εμοι ου μη περιπατησει εν τηι σκοτιαι αλλ εξει το φως της ζωης
   1450    125 470 48    799         55 318    611 61   80 370 1500 508 1015 = 15590

The first occurrence of 15590 in pi begins from position 7277 and is preceded by the three digits 358, which is the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach) translated as "Messiah".

"From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." Mat 4:17
απο τοτε ηρξατο ο ιησους κηρυσσειν και λεγειν3 μετανοειτε ηγγικε γαρ η βασιλεια των ουρανων
151 675 539 70 888 993 31 103 786 49 104 8 259 1150 1471 = 7277

Given that 2701 (the gematria value of the very first verse in the Bible) is a triangular number, it's interesting to note that starting from position 319,898 in pi is another familiar triangular number from the pages of the Bible:

Two hundred, threescore and sixteen were the number of souls saved from the shipwreck (Acts 27:37). Clearly, the prevalence of triangular numbers in the Bible demands closer attention. The beast number (666), the number of fish caught in the net (153) and the time the Israelites were in Egypt (210) are also triangular numbers. As is the fast approaching 5778 on the Hebrew calendar.

The Auld Triangle

It seems these Bible triangles are not just random numbers, but a series of signposts (all pointing in the same direction). Consider just a few of the coincidences:

The perimeters of the 153, 210, 276 and 666 triangles are 48, 57, 66 and 105 respectively.

48 + 57 + 66 + 105 = 276

The perimeter of the 276 triangle is 66.

starting from position 276 in pi are the two digits 66

In all in the ship were 276 souls (Acts 27:37).

the word "souls" appears 78 times in the Bible (KJV)
the first occurrence of 78 in pi begins from position 66

153, 210, 276, 666, 2701 and 5778 are the 17th, 20th, 23rd, 36th, 73rd and 107th triangles respectively.

17 + 20 + 23 + 36 + 73 + 107 = 276

The 276 saved souls (Acts 27:37) and the miraculous catch of 153 fish (John 21:11) are verses 27,893 and 26,910 in the Bible.

27,893 - 26,910 = 983

The Bible's third verse (apt, when discussing triangles) reads "And God said, let there be light: and there was light."

"And God said" (ויאמר אלהים) has a gematria value of 343
"let there be light" (יהי אור) has a gematria value of 232
343 - 232 = 111
the first occurrence of 111 in pi begins from position 153
the second occurrence of 111 in pi begins from position 983
the first occurrence of 343 in pi begins from position 666
the 343rd Hebrew word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim)

The miraculous catch of 153 was the fourth appearance of the resurrected Jesus. His first appearance was to Mary Magdalene (Joh 20:18). In the original Greek, Mary's name is written as μαρια η μαγδαληνη ("Mary the Magdalene"), where Magdalene means "the woman from Magdala".

η μαγδαληνη ("the Magdalene") has a numerical value of 153

St. Mary Magdalene by Pietro Perugino. Completion date 1500.

Jesus' next appearance was to the disciples (Joh 20:22) when he said "Receive ye the holy ghost" (λαβετε πνευμα αγιον). This phrase has a numerical value of 1053.

the first occurrence of 1053 in pi is followed by the three digits 358
358 is the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach) translated as "Messiah"

The Israelites were in Egypt for 210 years. The first occurrence of 210 in pi is followed by the four digits 4752. This is the gematria value of the Bible verse relating the 666 talents of gold which came to Solomon in one year (I Ki 10:14).

It's interesting that 210 is one of only six triangular numbers which are the product of three consecutive integers (the others are 6, 120, 990, 185136 and 258474216). Going back to the adjoined 2701 and 7372, we can see they are preceded by the number 8883.

This numeric string features the 7th, 6th and 5th occurrences of 8883, 2701 and 7372 respectively.

7 x 6 x 5 = 210

We know that 2701 is the gematria value of Gen 1:1, and that the word את (Aleph Tav) occurs 7372 times in Scripture. But what of the 8883?

The numerical value of Ιησους (Jesus) is 888, and there are three that bear record in heaven:

"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." 1 Jn 5:7

The term "the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost" (ο πατηρ ο λογος και το αγιον πνευμα) has a numerical value of 2113, which leads to a remarkable confluence.

The average distance from the Sun to the Earth is 149,597,870,700 kilometers (1 astronomical unit or AU). The time it takes for light to travel this distance is 499 seconds (8 min 19 sec). The first occurrence of 499 in pi is preceded by 2113.

in the original Greek, the term "one God" (εις θεος) has a numerical value of 499
this first occurrence of 499 overlaps the 'Feynman Point' in pi (999999)

This string of digits beginning from position 761 in pi can also be read as 4999 followed by 999. This represents the gematria value of the covenant established by God with the newly renamed Abraham, who was then 99 years old (see Gen 17:1-5). Unlike its parallel in Chapter 15 (attributed to the Jahwist), this Chapter 17 (Priestly) account establishes circumcision as the sign of the Abrahamic covenant, and specifies Sarah as the mother of the promised heir.

"And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after thee." Gen 17:7
   והקמתי את בריתי ביני ובינך ובין זרעך אחריך לדרתם לברית עולם להיות לך לאלהים ולזרעך אחריך
       239         333        116        50    451      146     642        674          239      297    68      88      72     622   401     561   =   4999

A verse from the Gospel of John shares the same numerical value of 4999:

      "This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you." Joh 15 :12
          αυτη εστιν η εντολη η εμη ινα αγαπατε αλληλους καθως ηγαπησα υμας
      709       565    8 463    8 53    61    391    769             1030    301 641   =   4999

The connection between these two verses invokes the "Aleph Tav" (את), which appears as the second word in the above Hebrew verse.

Gen 17:7 and John 15:12 gives (17 x 7) + (15 x 12) = 299
The "Aleph Tav" appears 7372 times in Scripture
the first occurrence of 7372 in pi begins from position 299

According to Rabbinic law, a Jewish boy is circumcised on the eighth day of his life, which provides further affirmation of the connection between the Bible and the order of digits in pi.

the first occurrence of 4999 in pi is followed by 999
circumcision is performed on the 8th day of a Jewish boy's life
8 is the 999th digit in pi

Atomic clocks are accurate to within one second in over 200 million years. A second in time is measured as the time it takes for the microwaves that are absorbed or emitted when Cesium 133 atoms switch between states to cycle through 9,192,631,770 oscillations. First demonstrated in June1955 by British physicist Louis Essen, the Cesium clock became the world's official timekeeper in 1967.

To 8 decimal places, light travels 3.26122557 cm for each such oscillation. Within this string are the four digits 2255 (the year Jacob died). The first occurrence of 326122557 in pi is followed by the four digits 8777.

the 8th word in the Bible is והארץ ("And the earth"), which has a gematria value of 302
777 is the gematria value of ברקיע השמים ("in the firmament of heaven")
302 forms a base to the 2701 (Gen 1:1) triangle
777 forms a base to the 5778 triangle

the augmented triangles are 77 and 114 rows deep
77 + 114 = 191
the 191st word in the Bible is את ("Aleph Tav")

In a similar manner, the numerical value of the first verse in John's Gospel ("In the beginning...") also forms a base for the Gen 1:1 triangle ("In the beginning..."). The resultant triangle is 112 rows deep.

The word "Jesus" appears in 935 Bible verses (KJV)
the first occurrence of 935 in pi is followed by the three digits 112
Albert Einstein lived the last 20 years of his life at 112 Mercer Street, Princeton

Gen 1:1 ("In the beginning...") and John 1:1 ("In the beginning...") combine to form the 112th triangle.

Mourners gather outside 112 Mercer Street, Princeton after the death of Albert Einstein in April, 1955.

The Stability of Iron

Albert Einstein's Annus Mirabilis, during which he published four papers including those pertaining to special relativity and E = mc², was in 1905 when Einstein was 26 years old.

26 is the gematria value of the Tetagrammatom (יהוה)
the element Iron (Fe) has 26 protons
the E = mc² paper was published in 5666 on the Hebrew calendar
5666 + 112 = 5778

The most common isotope of Iron is ⁵⁶Fe. It's 26 protons and 30 neutrons combine to make iron incredibly stable by balancing the strong force (which binds protons together) and the electromagnetic force (which pushes them apart). Elements lighter than Iron can combine (fusion), whilst heavier elements can split apart (fission). But Iron, like the LORD, changes not (Mal 3:6), as explained by Professor Jim Al-Khalil in the BBC's Atom: The Key to the Cosmos (from 29 m 30 s).

The first occurrence of 56 in pi begins from position 210, the 20th triangular number and the number of years the Israelites were in Egypt. The following two digits are 65.

the 65th word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim), when God made the firmament (Gen 1:7)

The atomic radius of Iron is 194 pm (Van der Waals). The first occurrence of 194 in pi begins from position 390, the gematria value of שמים ("heaven"). The following three digits are 151.

the 151st word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) when God saw that it was good (Gen 1:12)

The gematria value of יהוה (YHWH) is 26, and the 26th prime number is 101. The first occurrence of 101 in pi begins from position 852. This is the gematria value of a verse from Isaiah, in which Zion literally becomes a light to the nations:

"And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising." Isa 60:3
והלכו גוים לאורך ומלכים לנגה זרחך
235 88 146 257 59 67 = 852

Isaiah begins this chapter with "Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee." (Isa 60:1-3).

"Arise, shine" (קומי אורי) has a gematria value of 373

The first occurrence of 373 in pi is followed by the two digits 43.

the 43rd word in the Bible is האור ("the light") when God saw the light, that it was good (Gen 1:4)

Beginning from position 373 in pi are the two digits 82.

the 82nd word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim), when God called the firmament heaven (Gen 1:8)
the word אלהים (Elohim) appears in 635 verses in the Hebrew Bible
the first occurrence of 635 in pi begins from position 614
the 614th word in the Bible is the Tetragrammaton (יהוה) when the LORD God took the man, and placed him in the garden of Eden (Gen 2:15)

The number 373 is the 74th prime number.

the gematria value of אלהים (Elohim) is 86
the first occurrence of 86 in pi begins from position 74
the following three digits are 208
the 208th word in the Bible is להאיר ("to give light") when God set the great lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth (Gen 1:16-17)

Of the great lights, the lesser light to rule the night is the moon, which orbits the earth at an average distance of 384,400 km. The first occurrence of 384400 in pi is followed by an interesting sequence of digits. 160913 is followed by 6117 (the gematria value of the "choose life" verse Deu 30:19) and 137 (the inverse of the fine structure constant).

the Hebrew word for "moon" (ירח) has a gematria value of 218
the first occurrence of 218 in pi is followed by the four digits 6117 (choose life)
the Hebrew words for "sun" (שמש) and "earth" (ארץ) have a combined gematria value of 931

The first occurrence of 931 in pi is preceded by the four digits 6117 (choose life):

The sequence 160913 is more problematic. The first occurrence of 160913 in pi is followed by a remarkable sequence of rep digits, as well as their common divisor (37).

777 + 222 + 999 = 1998, the gematria value of "In the beginning, God created the heaven" from Gen 1:1

But again, the adjacent digits are problematic. The recalcitrant strings are firstly 160913 and then 693. The common digits allow for an interesting equation:

The result of this method of subtraction is 101.

101 is the 26th prime number
on the periodic table, the 26th element is Iron (Fe)
the word "iron" appears 101 times in the Bible (KJV)

The Hebrew word for "iron" is ברזל (barzel) which has a gematria value of 239. The first occurrence of 239 in pi begins from position 1688.

the numerical value of κυριος ιησους ("Lord Jesus") is 1688

The word "iron" appears 8 times in the Aramaic section of the Book of Daniel (Chapters 2-7).

the Aramaic word for "iron" is פרזל (parzel), which has a gematria value of 317
the Greek word for "iron" is σιδηρεος (sidereos), which has a numerical value of 597

The first occurrence of 597 in pi is followed by the three digits 317:

101 x 37 = 3737

The first occurrence of 3737 in pi is followed by the five digits 67777.

the 67th word in the Bible is הרקיע ("the firmament") when God made the firmament (Gen 1:7)
777 is the gematria value of ברקיע השמים ("in the firmament of the heaven") see Gen 1:14

The totient of 3737 is 3600, which brings us back to the 17th triangular number: the number of fish caught in the net (Joh 21:11). The numerical value of "an hundred and fifty and three" (εκατον πεντηκοντατριων) is 2590. The first occurrence of 2590 is followed by those same four digits 3600. This is the first occurrence of 3600 in pi, beginning from position 358, which is the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach tr. "Messiah").

There are 360 degrees in a circle. So 3600 is ten circles, as depicted in this representation of the ten sephirot from an early kabbalistic text.

The Creation of Eve

The area without the hexagon = 18, the gematria value of חי (chai tr. "life").

In very recent times, there have been largely erroneous claims regarding the significance of the number nineteen in the Qur'an (see analyses here and here). Notwithstanding, there are aspects of this number that are intriguing.

In accord with the 19 hexagon inside the 37 star, the first occurrence of 19 in pi begins from position 37.

The first occurrence of 19 in e and phi begin from positions 108 and 188 respectively.

37 + 108 + 188 = 333
the 112th triangle has a perimeter of 333
the 112th triangle is the sum of the gematria values of Gen 1:1 and John 1:1

Following this first occurrence of 19 in pi are the three digits 716. The 716th word in the Bible is the יהוה (YHWH) when the LORD God took a rib from the man, and made he a woman (Gen 2:22)

The Creation of Eve by Michaelangelo Buonarotti. Fresco (1508 - 1512) Sistine Chapel, Vatican City.

Adam said she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man (Gen 2:23). The Hebrew word for "woman" is אשה (Ishshah) Strongs H802.

Strongs H802 appears 780 times in the Hebrew concordance of the KJV

The first occurrence of 780 in pi is followed by the three digits 499, the number of seconds for light to travel one astronomical unit (the average distance between the sun and the earth).

אשה ("woman") has a gematria value of 306
the word "woman" appears 360 times in the Bible (KJV)
אשה is also translated as "wife"
the word "wife" appears in 360 Bible verses (KJV)
306 + 360 = 666, the 36th triangular number
the woman so created was subsequently named Eve (חוה), because she is the mother of all living (Gen 3:20)
חוה ("Eve") has a gematria value of 19
Eve's name appears four times in the Bible (KJV), once for each letter of the Tetragrammaton
God created "male and female" (זכר ונקבה), with a gematria value of 390 (Gen 1:27)
390 is the gematria value of שמים ("heaven")
beginning from position 390 in pi are the two digits 19
the words "male" and "female" appear together in 19 Bible verses (KJV)
Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden
the word "Eden" appears in 19 Bible verses (KJV)

The product of 19 and 37 is 703.

703 is the 37th triangular number
703 is the 19th hexagonal number
2701 (Gen 1:1) is the 37th hexagonal number

703 is also the gematria value of "and the earth" from Gen 1:1. The 703rd word in the Bible is the יהוה (YHWH) when the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs (Gen 2:21).

The area without the star = 666.

The gematria of אשמר ("Israel") is 541, and as if to confirm the connection, number 19 begins from position 541 in pi, immediately preceded by number 37.

The number 541 is the 100th prime, and 10th star number. The 541 star and the 703 triangle are both 37 rows deep, and each have a perimeter count of 108.

The 541 star and the 703 triangle share the same row height and perimeter count.

Critics and numerophobes decry the use of gematria, but the Bible says that even the hairs on your head are numbered. Beginning from position 19 in pi are the four digits 4626:

                                     "But the very hairs of your head are all numbered." Mat 10:30
                              υμων δε και αι τριχες της κεφαλης πασαι ηριθμημεναι εισι
                                 1290 9     31    11     1215 508 764    292                281     225   =   4626

Man and Woman, Created He Them

The first chapter of Genesis records the six days of Creation. In verses 1-25, God created light, sky, land, plants, lights, fish, birds and land animals. Beginning from chapter 26 (the gematria value of the Tetragrammaton), God created man.

there are 317 Hebrew words in the first 25 verses of the first chapter of Genesis
the first occurrence of 317 in pi is followed by 25
there are 117 Hebrew words in the final 6 verses of the first chapter of Genesis
the first occurrence of 117 in pi is followed by 06

The first occurrence of 43431 in pi begins from position 44,734.

44 + 734 = 778

Often a date after the year 5000 on the Hebrew calendar will leave off five thousand. For example, the Hebrew year 5778 will be written as 778. To compute the Gregorian year, simply add 1240 to the shortened Hebrew year. For example, the Hebrew year 5778 corresponds with Gregorian year (778 + 1240 = 2018) .

the 117th Hebrew word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) translated as "God"
the 317th Hebrew word in the Bible is טוב (towb) translated as "good"
the words "God" and "good" appear together in 129 Bible verses (KJV)

The first occurrence of 129 in pi begins from position 499. The average distance from the sun to the earth (1 astronomical unit) is traversed in 499 seconds at the speed of light.

The first "God" and "good" verse is Gen 1:4, when God saw the light, that it was good. The Hebrew word for "man" is איש (iysh) and for "woman" is אשה (ishshar).

איש ("man") has a gematria value of 311
אשה ("woman") has a gematria value of 306
311 + 306 = 617

The first occurrence of 617 in pi is followed by the four digits 1776:

"And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness." Gen 1:4
וירא אלהים את האור כי טוב ויבדל אלהים בין האור ובין החשך
333 68 212 62 86 52 17 30 212 401 86 217 = 1776

The words "man" and "woman" appear together in 74 Bible verses (KJV).

the gematria value of אלהים (Elohim) is 86
the first occurrence of 86 in pi begins from position 74
the following three digits are 208
the 208th word in the Bible is להאיר ("to give light")
the words "man" and "good" appear together in 78 Bible verses (KJV)
the words "woman" and "good" appear together in 8 Bible verses (KJV)
78 + 8 = 86 (Elohim)

The first 86 digits of pi (after the decimal point) sum to 418. The first occurrence of 418 in pi begins from position 727, and is followed by the three digits 159, then 813.

4 + 1 + 8 = 13
the first 13 Bible verses consist of 159 Hebrew words
727 is the 129th prime number
the words "God" and "good" appear together in 129 Bible verses (KJV)

Whither Will He Go?

The year 5778 on the Hebrew calendar corresponds with 1439 AH (Anno Hijri or the Islamic calendar).

1439 is the 228th prime number
the first 19 chapters of the Bible consists of 228 Hebrew words

The first occurrence of 1439 in pi is followed by the fourth occurrence of the four digits digits 5600. The fifth occurrence of 5600 is surrounded on one side by the four digits 3627, and on the other side 112.

3627 is the numerical value of John 1:1 which combines with 2701 (Gen 1:1) to form the 112th triangle

Judges 2:20 - 3:6 addresses the reasons why the nations remained following the conquest of Canaan, instead of being driven out and delivered into the hands of Joshua.

"And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and he said, Because that this people hath transgressed my covenant which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice;" Jdg 2:20
ויחר אף יהוה בישראל ויאמר יען אשר עברו הגוי הזה את בריתי אשר צויתי את אבותם ולא שמעו לקולי
176 416 37 449 401 516 501 622 401 17 24 278 501 130 257 503 26 81 224 = 5600

the Hebrew word גוי (gowy tr. nation, heathen, Gentiles, people) has a gematria value of 19 (Strongs H1471)

The first occurrence of 3627 in pi is followed by 516(7).

516 is the numerical value of the Greek word διασποραν (diaspora, or dispersed)

"Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?" John 7:35

"Whither will he go" (που ουτος μελλει πορευεσθαι) has a numerical value of 2590, a value shared by "an hundred and fifty and three" (εκατον πεντηκοντατριων) the number of fish caught in the net (Joh 21:11).

5167 is the gematria value of a verse from Ezekiel which speaks of the diaspora:

"Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come." Eze 11:16
לכן אמר כה אמר אדני יהוה כי הרחקתים בגוים וכי הפיצותים בארצות ואהי להם למקדש מעט בארצות אשר באו שם
340 9 501 619 119 474 75 22 699 641 36 61 763 30 26 65 241 25 241 100 = 5167

The term "little sanctuary" (למקדש מעט) is, in the Jewish tradition, a reference to the origins of synagogues. The term למקדש מעט (mikdash me'at) has a gematria value of 593.

593 is the 108th prime number (the perimeter of the 541 star and the 703 triangle)

Remarkably, the third occurrence of 3627 in pi is preceded by the sixth occurrence of 5778.

3 x 6 = 18, the gematria value of חי (chai tr. "life")

The Feeding of The Multitude

The Hebrew word for "light" is אור (owr), which first appears in the third verse of the Bible:

"And God said, Let there be light: and there was light." Gen 1:3
ויאמר אלהים יהי אור ויהי אור

Separating these first two occurrences of אור ("light") is the single word ויהי ("and there was"). This word, surrounded by "light", is the 26th Hebrew word in the Bible, and 26 is the gematria value of the Tetragrammaton (יהוה).

The word אור ("light") has a gematria value of 207. The 207th word in the Bible is להאיר ("to give light") when God set (the two great lights) in the firmament of the heaven, to give light to the earth (Gen 1:17).

the 207th Hebrew word in the Bible appears in verse 17
207 = 153 in duodecimal (base 12)
the first 12 verses in the Bible consist of 153 Hebrew words
153 is the 17th triangular number
the first 17 verses in the Bible consist of 210 Hebrew words
the 20th triangular number is 210

The first occurrence of 207 in pi is followed by the three digits 222. The word "truth" appears in 222 Bible verses (KJV).

the word "truth" appears 235 times in 222 Bible verses (KJV)
the word "light" appears in 235 Bible verses (KJV)

This first appearance of 207 begins from position 2,373. The only word in the Bible with a numerical value of 2,373 is ευσχημονως ("honestly") from Romans 13:13 ("Let us walk honestly, as in the day...").

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." George Orwell

The gematria of the Tetragrammaton is 26, and 26th word in the Bible is ויהי meaning "and there was" or "and the". With a gematria value of 31, this word is surrounded by "light" (Gen 1:3).

31 is also the gematria value of the Hebrew word אל (El), meaning "God" or "mighty" but translated as God 213 times in the Bible. The first occurrence of 213 in pi begins from position 280. With a gematria of 31, the 280th word in the Bible is the same ויהי, which begins Gen 1:23 ("And the evening and the...").

Following this first occurrence of 213 in pi are the four digits 3936, which is the gematria value of Deu 5:3 (a reminder that God is with us, and not just a relic from the past).

The first occurrence of 31 in pi begins from position 137, the inverse of the fine structure constant (also known as alpha). Alpha specifies how strongly electromagnetic waves (like light or x-rays) affect charged particles (like electrons and protons). Alpha is actually a dimensionless ratio involving three quantities:

Alpha = e² / ħc = 1/ 137, where

e = the charge on the electron
c = the speed of light
ħ (h bar) is a fundamental constant from quantum mechanics

Following this first occurrence of 31 in pi are the four digits 7253, the value of a Bible verse describing another miracle involving fish, when Jesus fed a multitude with just seven loaves a few small fish:

           "And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children." Mat 15:38
         οι δε εσθιοντες ησαν τετρακισχιλιοι ανδρες χωρις γυναικων και παιδιων
                       80 9    849 259    1666 360    1710    1334 31 955   =   7253

Albert Einstein's E = mc² paper was published in the year 5666 on the Hebrew calendar
the numerical value of "four thousand" (τετρακισχιλιοι) is 1666
5666 - 1666 = 4000
the phrase "four thousand" appears in 37 Bible verses (KJV)

Immediately after feeding the multitude (Mat 15:39), Jesus sailed into the coasts of Magdala (μαγδαλα), birthplace of Mary the Magdalene.

"the Magdalene" (η μαγδαληνη) has a numerical value of 153 (the number of fish caught in the net John 21:11)

Christ Feeding the Multitude (Coptic icon).

The first occurrence of 4000 in pi is preceded by the four digits 5778. Equally intriguing, beginning from position 4,000 in pi are the three digits 666. This is the third occurrence of 666 in pi.

3 x 666 = 1998, the gematria value of בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ("In the beginning God created the heaven" from Gen 1:1.

Physicist Richard Feynman famously spoke of the mystery of the number 137. Equally mysterious is the kabbalistic concept of 288 holy sparks.

the number 137 is the 33rd prime number
the 33rd word in the Bible is טוב ("good") when God saw the light, that it was good (Gen 1:4)

Beginning from position 33 in pi are the three digits 288:

The first occurrence of 137 in pi is followed shortly thereafter by the number 288. The intermediate digits sum to 31, the gematria value of the 26th word in the Bible surrounded by "light".

8 + 3 + 8 + 7 + 5 = 31
"two hundred threescore and sixteen" (διακοσιαι εβδομηκονταεξ) has a numerical value of 961 = 31² (Acts 27:37)
the word "fish" appears in 31 Bible verses (KJV)

It Is I (Hineni)

We have seen that the first two occurrences of the speed of light in pi indicate the "thousand three hundred and five and thirty" days referenced in Daniel 12:12.

first occurrence of 299792458 begins from position 623,556,156 which gives 623 + 556 + 156 = 1335
second occurrence of 299792458 begins from position 1,169,634,408 which gives 1 + 169 + 634 + 408 = 1212

We have also seen that the time for light to travel 1 astronomical unit (the average distance between the sun and the earth) is 499 seconds. To recap, the first occurrence of 499 in pi begins from position 761.

211349999998372
^ position 761 in Pi

The preceding four digits (2113) gives the numerical value of "the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost" (ο πατηρ ο λογος και το αγιον πνευμα). The following four digits (9999) provides the numerical value of a warning verse from Revelation:

"Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth." Rev 2:16
μετανοησον ει δε μη ερχομαι σοι ταχυ και πολεμησω μετ αυτων εν τηι ρομφαιαι του στοματος μου
794 15 9 48 826 280 1301 31 1233 345 1551 55 318 732 770 1181 510 = 9999

Beginning from position 499 in pi are the four digits 1298. Interestingly, the first occurrence of 1335 begins at position 12980.

After the Babylonian captivity, God anointed the Persian king Cyrus the Great to bring salvation to Israel, and thus spread the fame of the one true God throughout the world. Speaking directly to Cyrus, God said:

"That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else." Isa 45:6

the term "from the rising of the sun, and from the west" (ממזרח שמש וממערבה) has a gematria value of 1298

Later in Isaiah, God assured Zion that the Babylonian nightmare was over (Isa 52:1-6).

"Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I." Isa 52:6
לכן ידע עמי שמי לכן ביום ההוא כי אני הוא המדבר הנני
115 251 12 61 30 17 58 100 350 120 84 100 = 1298

The Hebrew word הנני (hineni), translated as "It is I", "Here I am" or "Here am I", is used elsewhere in the Bible by human beings responding to a divine call (e.g Gen 22:1, Exo 3:4). Only in the second section of the book of Isaiah is the term used by God addressing humans (also see Isa 52:6, 58:9).

Besides this verse in Isaiah, the term "It is I" appears four times in the Bible (KJV), each spoken by Jesus, once in each of the four Gospels (Mat 14:27, Mar 6:50, Luk 24:39, Joh 6:20).

in Hebrew "It is I" (הנני) has a gematria value of 115
the term "Lord Jesus" appears in 115 Bible verses (KJV)
in the original Greek, "It is I" (εγω ειμι) has a numerical value of 873

The first occurrence of 115 in pi is preceded by the first occurrence of 873.

the first occurrence of 873 in pi begins from position 918
the first occurrence of 115 in pi begins from position 921
918 + 921 = 1839

"The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;" Deu 18:15
נביא מקרבך מאחיך כמני יקים לך יהוה אלהיך אליו תשמעון
866 47 66 26 50 160 120 79 362 63 = 1839

The first occurrence of 1839 begins from position 9,323 in pi, the numerical value of words from Jesus from the Gospel of John:

          "I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep." Joh 10:11
             εγω ειμι ο ποιμην ο καλος ο ποιμην ο καλος την ψυχην αυτου τιθησιν υπερ των προβατων
808 65 70 258 70 321 70    258   70 321 358 1758    1171    587 585 1150    1403   =   9323

"I am the good shepherd" (εγω ειμι ο ποιμην ο καλος) has a numerical value of 1592
the first occurrence of 1592 in pi begins from position 3
the third Hebrew word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) when God created the heaven and the earth (Gen 1:1)
the following digits are 65, and then 358
the 65th word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) when God made the firmament (Gen 1:7)
358 is the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach) translated as "Messiah"

The first ten verses of the Bible consist of 115 Hebrew words. Their combined gematria value is 24,575. The first occurrence of 24575 in pi is followed by the five digits 23888.

the 23rd word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) when God said, Let there be light, and there was light (Gen 1:3)
888 is the numerical value of Ιησους ("Jesus")

As in The Days of Noe

Noah was the tenth antediluvian (pre-flood) Patriarch (1 Ch 1:1-4). The Bible verses relating all the days of his life can be pinpointed by the speed of light:

the word "speed" appears 11 times in the Bible (KJV)
the word "light" appears 272 times in the Bible (KJV)
11 x 272 = 2992

      "And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died." Gen 9:29
            ויהיו כל ימי נח תשע מאות שנה וחמשים שנה וימת
                                            456 355        404   355    447     770   58 60 50    37   =   2992

the gematria value of נח ("Noah") = 58
appropriately, the 58th word in the Bible is ("the waters") when God divided the waters from the waters (Gen 1:6)
Noah died when Abraham was 58 years old
Noah was the 10th antediluvian patriarch
the first occurrence of 10 in pi is followed by 58
beginning from position 10 in pi are the two digits 58
the first 10 Bible verses consist of 115 words (hineni)

Noah was a just man, and perfect in his generation (Gen 6:9). In this verse, the phrase "and Noah walked with God" is preceded by the Aleph Tav.

"(Aleph Tav) and Noah walked with God" (את האלהים התהלך נח) has a gematria value of 1010

The gematria of ישראל ("Israel") is 541, which is the 100th prime and 10th star number.

the word "Israel" appears in 2293 Bible verses (KJV)
the first occurrence of 2293 in pi is followed by the three digits 100
2293 is the 341st prime number
341 + 100 = 441, the gematria value of אמת ("truth")

The word "Israel" appears 2565 times in 2293 Bible verses (KJV). The first occurrence of 2565 in pi is followed by the three digits 179. The 179th verse in the Bible is Gen 7:19, when the tops of the mountains were covered by the waters of Noah's flood.

Noah's father was Lamech, who was 182 years old when Noah was born (Gen 5:28-29). Jacob (יעקב), who became Israel, has a gematria value of 182. Lamech lived for 777 years (see the 137th verse in the Bible Gen 5:31). Lamech's father was Methusael (Gen 4:18), which means "man of God". Methusael (מתושאל) has a gematria value of 777.

Isaac blessed Jacob in the Bible's 777th verse (Gen 28:3).
777 is the gematria value of ברקיע השמים (""in the firmament of heaven")
777 forms a base to the 5778 triangle
5778 + 777 = 6555 (the 114th triangular number)
6 x 555 = 3330
from the giving of the Torah on Mt Sinai to 5778 = 3330 years

Noah died in the year 2006 on the Hebrew calendar.

5778 - 2006 = 3772

the first occurrence of 3772 in pi is followed by the three digits 175
Abraham died when he was 175 years old (Gen 25:7)
chapter and verse gives 25 x 7 = 175

An astronomical unit (the average distance from the sun to the earth) is 92,955,807 miles. The first occurrence of this number in pi is closely followed by the four digits 1063. Coincidentally, the beginning position also reduces to 1063:

13 + 753 + 297 = 1063

The first occurrence of 1063 in pi is followed by the four digits 5188, then 99 which was the age of Abraham when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin (see Gen 17:24).

The days of Noah's life were nine hundred and fifty years. In the decimal digits of e, the first occurrence of 90050 is also followed by those same four digits 5188, as is the first occurrence of 9898 (see above).

Doubtless, 5188 has a story to tell and who better to relay the message than the prophet Isaiah:

ישעיה ("Isaiah") has a gematria value of 395, the same as השמים ("the heaven")

"Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them." Isa 48:6
שמעת חזה כלה ואתם הלוא תגידו השמעתיך חדשות מעתה ונצרות ולא ידעתם
524 37 752 515 718 845 423 42 447 55 20 810 = 5188

Isa 48:6 gives 48 x 6 = 288
the first occurrence of Noah's age (950) in pi is followed by 288
the totient of 888 (Jesus) = 288
the numerical value of Ιησους Χριστος ("Jesus Christ") = 2368
the first occurrence of 2368 in pi is followed by the three digits 288

Isa 48:6 is verse number 18,621 in the Bible. Beginning from position 18621 in pi are the three digits 950 (the number of years in Noah's life).

Position 950 in pi highlights the second occurrence of 5778, followed by 18, then another 5778. The 18th Hebrew word in the Bible is merachefet, or "moved upon" (מרחפת), which is the origin of the Jewish tradition of 288 Holy Sparks.

There are three mentions of "Noah" in the New Testament, including the Bible's 58th book (Heb 11:7). On another five occasions, "Noah" is referred to as "Noe".

"But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." Mat 24:37

Mat 24:37 gives 24 x 37 = 888

Νωε ("Noe") has a numerical value of 855. Beginning from position 855 in pi are the three digits 000, then 3137.

                                                                    "I am that bread of life." Joh 6:48
                                             εγω ειμι ο αρτος της ζωης
                                        808 65   70 671 508    1015   =   3137

chapter and verse gives 6 x 48 = 288

Mat 24:37 is the 10,111st verse in the Bible. Ten thousand, and 111 are highly evocative. When spelled, the first letter in the Hebrew alphabet, אלף (aleph) has a gematria value of 111 and literally means "thousand". Arguably the most convincing ELS code in the Bible is a sequence of ten alephs, which occurs in the Book of Genesis with an ELS skip of 1850. Remarkably, the tenth aleph is the middle letter of the word ראש (rosh), which means "top", when the men of Babel said: Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; (Gen 11:4).

The tower of alephs, whose top may reach unto heaven.

the Hebrew word ראש (rosh) has a gematria value of 501
the Hebrew word חי (chai) Strongs H2416 is translated 501 times in the Bible (KJV)

The mysteries of the deep figure prominently here:

John 21:11 and Acts 27:37 are verse numbers 26,910 and 27,893 in the Bible (KJV)
27,893 - 26,910 = 983
the first occurrence of 983 in pi begins from position 501
Strongs H2416 is translated as "life" 144 times in the Bible (KJV)
the six days of creation = 144 hours
"Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days" (יונה במעי הדג שלשה ימים) has a gematria value of 940 (Jon 1:17)
the first occurrence of 940 in pi begins from position 144

In the Revelation of John, there are four mentions of the number 144. There are 144,000 marked with the seal of God (twelve thousand from each of the twelve tribes of Israel) in Rev 7:4, 14:1, 14:3, and the wall of the New Jerusalem was 144 cubits (Rev 21:17).

(7 x 4) + (14 x 1) + (14 x 3) + (21 x 17) = 441, the gematria value of אמת (emeth,meaning "truth")

The 441st Hebrew word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) when, on the seventh day, God rested from his work (Gen 2:2). The first sabbath followed six days (144 hours) of creation.

the word "sabbath" appears 137 times in 116 Bible verses (KJV)
the first occurrence of 116 in pi begins from position 395, the gematria value of השמים ("the heaven")
שבת ("sabbath") has a gematria value of 702
the first occurrence of 702 in pi is followed by the three digits 179, then 86 (Elohim)
the 179th word in the Bible is השמים ("the heaven")

Preceding this first occurrence of 702 in pi are the three digits 190, which begin from position 541 (Israel). In the 190th verse in the Bible, after forty days, Noah opened the window of the ark (Gen 8:6). In this verse, ונפקחו ("opened") is the 822nd word in the Bible. The first occurrence of 822 in pi is followed by the two digits 31 which begin from position 137.

the words "sabbath" and "opened" each appear 137 times in the Bible (KJV)

In much more recent times, men have again said: Go to, let us build us a city and a tower...

the totient of 855 (Noe) = 432

The world's highest residential building topped out on October 10, 2014 (the second day of the Sukkot festival). Located at 432 Park Avenue, this monument to the super-wealthy dominates the New York city skyline with a height of 1396 feet.

The house that inequality built - 432 Park Avenue.

Reaching for the heaven, 432 Park Avenue has 96 stories.

the 96th word in the Bible is השמים ("the heaven") see Gen 1:9

Just as there are five mentions of "Noe" in the Bible, so can 432 Park Avenue be seen from all five burroughs of New York City. Apartment price tags ensure that only the super wealthy will have the opportunity to take up residence. The Wealth-X and UBS Billionaires Census of 2017 counts 2,754 people with more than a billion dollars in assets. With assets of US$9.2 trillion, this is the highest number of billionaires ever recorded.

The increasing wealth inequality is in flagrant disregard of the teaching of the Bible. The feeding of the multitude has been abandoned in favor of the feathering of the nests. In 2014, the CEO to worker pay ratio was 373:1 (see earlier for the significance of that number). The average S&P 500 Index CEO received US$13.5 million in total compensation.

Jesus fed the multitude of 4,000 (Mat 15:38)
Jesus fed the multitude of 5,000 (Mat 14:21)
432 Park Avenue towers 1396 feet
In the original Greek, "five thousand" (πεντακισχιλιοι) has a numerical value of 1396 (Strongs G4000)

The first verse in the Bible ("In the beginning...") has a gematria value of 2701. God's creation was subsequently wiped out in the flood, and a new beginning commenced with a microcosm saved in the Ark after the earth dried.

"And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried." Gen 8:14

chapter and verse gives 8 x 14 = 112 (the height of the Gen1:1/John 1:1 triangle)

Coincidentally, this verse signalling the new beginning also has a gematria value of 2701.

on the Gregorian calendar, the 27th day of the 2nd month is the 58th day of the year
on the Hebrew calendar, the 27th day of the 2nd month is the 57th day of the year
58 + 57 = 115 (Hineni)

The ten alephs in the Tower of Babel ELS have a total gematria value of 10 x 111 = 1110. This is the gematria value of a Bible verse when Jacob answered God's call with Hineni ("Here am I").

"And the angel of God spake unto me in a dream, saying, Jacob: And I said, Here am I." Gen 31:11
                          ויאמר אלי מלאך האלהים בחלום יעקב ואמר הנני
                                        115    247    182        86           91            91     41      257   =   1110

Jacob's name was subsequently changed to Israel:

"And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed." Gen 32:28
ויאמר לא יעקב יאמר עוד שמך כי אם ישראל כי שרית עם אלהים ועם אנשים ותוכל
                     462       401      116     86     110    910   30     541     41   30    360   80     251    182   31    257   =   3888

the word "Israel" appears in 2220 verses in the Old Testament (KJV)
2220 is the numerical value of Ιωαννης βαπτιστης ("John the Baptist")
the first occurrence of 2220 in pi is followed by the three digits 888
888 is the numerical value of Ιησους ("Jesus")
the word "Jacob" appears 358 times in the Bible
358 is the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach) translated as "Messiah"
3 x 888 = 2664

Beginning from position 2664 in pi are the three digits 401 (Aleph Tav)

Gen 32:28 is verse number 957 in the Bible
chapter and verse gives 32 x 28 = 896

The first occurrences of the numbers 957 and 896 in pi both overlap the four digits 5778.

On the Hebrew calendar, the year 5778 corresponds with 2017/2018 on the Gregorian calendar. Heads up billionaires: bypass the opportunity to purchase an apartment at 432 Park Avenue. Feed the multitude instead - that would truly be reaching for heaven.

LORD God of Heaven

The phrase "LORD God of Heaven" appears in four Bible verses (KJV), once for each letter of the Tetragrammaton. In Hebrew יהוה אלהי השמים ("LORD God of Heaven") has a gematria value of 467. The first occurrence of 467 in pi begins from position 582. In a stunning coincidence, the word "heaven" appears 582 times in the Bible (KJV).

In the Hebrew Bible, the first 42 verses consists of 582 words. The 42 letter Name of God is composed from a sequence of seven letters that are corresponded to the seven days of the week. It's interesting that the first occurrence of "LORD God of heaven" should appear in Gen 24:7 (7 days of 24 hours in common usage).

The Tetragrammaton (יהוה) appears in 5195 verses in the Hebrew Bible. The first occurrence of 5195 in pi overlaps the remarkable 5778185778 sequence. 5778 on the Hebrew calendar corresponds with 2017/2018 Gregorian, whilst 18 is the gematria value of חי (chai) meaning "life".

The first occurrence of 18 in pi is followed by 6117, the gematria of the Bible's "choose life" verse (Deu 30:19). The word "God" appears in 3876 verses in the Bible (KJV). The first occurrence of 3876 overlaps 6117.

It's quite strange how these overlaps highlight these two numbers:

6117 - 5778 = 339

The 339th word in the Bible is את (Aleph Tav), surrounded by אלהים (Elohim) on one side, and אדם (Adam) on the other, when God created man in his own image (Gen 1:27).

the 339th word in the Bible is the 3rd word in the 3³rd verse.
the words "God" and "man" appear together in 360 Bible verses (KJV)
360 / 3 / 3³ = 4.444...
the word "God" appears 4444 times in 3876 Bible verses (KJV)

The Tetragrammaton (יהוה) appears 6007 times in 5195 Bible verses. The first occurrence of 6007 in pi is followed by the two digits 23. The 23rd word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) when God said, Let there be light, and there was light (Gen 1:3). It could equally be said that 6007 is followed by the three digits 230. Coincidentally, the 230th word in the Bible is also אלהים (Elohim) in Gen 1:20.

230 - 23 = 207
the Hebrew word אור ("light") has a gematria value of 207

"And God said, Let there be light: and there was light."
ויאמר אלהים יהי אור ויהי אור
