The Ministry of Jesus

Jesus astonished the multitude when he said:

“But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.” Mat 22:31-33

In quoting Exo 3:6, Jesus' point was that if God could identify himself as God of the patriarchs, then they must still be alive when God spoke to Moses; and so they must be raised. In the original Hebrew, the term “Abraham, Isaac and Jacob” (וליעקב ליצחק לאברהם) has a gematria value of 734. The first occurrence of 734 in the decimal digits of pi is followed by the four digits 6722. This is the numerical value of a verse from the Gospel of Luke, in which Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are listed in the genealogy of Jesus:

" Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor," Luk 3:34
του ιακωβ του ισαακ του αβρααμ του θαρα του ναχωρ
770 833 770 232 770 145 770 111 770 1551 = 6722

According to this genealogical record in Luke, the patriarch Jacob traces directly to Jesus (see Luk 3:23-34). In addition to chronologically concluding the genealogy of Jesus, Luk 3:23 also gives the age at which he began his ministry; that being “about thirty years of age” (ωσει ετων τριακοντα), which has a numerical value of 3022. The first occurrence of 3022 in pi is followed by the four digits 9219.

“Behold, a virgin shall be with child and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.” Mat 1:23
ιδου η παρθενος εν γαστρι εξει και τεξεται υιον και καλεσουσι το ονομα αυτου εμμανουηλ ο εστι μεθερμηνευομενον μεθ ημων ο θεος
484 8 515 55 614 80 31 681 530 31 936 370 231 1171 644 70 515 947 54 898 70 284 = 9219

The term “Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us” (εμμανουηλ ο εστι μεθερμηνευομενον μεθ ημων ο θεος) has a numerical value of 3482. The first occurrence of 3482 in pi begins from position 86.

in Hebrew, אלהים (Elohim) translated as “God” has a gematria value of 86

Jesus’ ministry began at "about thirty" years of age. We learn from Pirkei Avot 5:24 (Ethics of The Fathers) that thirty is the age of full authority. His ministry was initiated by being tempted in the wilderness for forty days and nights (Luk 4:1-13). And it ended with his death by crucifixion, after 6 hours on the cross.

In the original Greek, “thirty” (τριακοντα) has a numerical value of 852. Beginning from position 852 in pi are the six digits 101000. The first occurrence of 852 is followed by the three digits 110. This looks like binary code, and so it seems.

101000 in binary = 40 in decimal (the years in the wilderness)
110 in binary = 6 in decimal (the hours on the cross)

“Christ in The Wilderness” by Moretto da Brescia (Alessandro Bonvicino) ca. 1498 - 1554. Metropolitan Museum of Art. “And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.” Mar 1:13

these sequences of 101000 and 110 begin from positions 852 and 174 respectively
852 + 174 = 1026

      “For the LORD'S portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.” Deu 32:9
                                       כי חלק יהוה עמו יעקב חבל נחלתו
                                                   494    40    182    116    26    138    30   =   1026

the word “Jacob” appears 358 times in the Bible (KJV)
in Hebrew, משיח (Moshiach, meaning "Messiah") has a gematria value of 358
Deu 32:9 gives 32 x 9 = 288
the totient of 888 (“Jesus”) = 288

“Jacob is the lot of his inheritance” (יעקב חבל נחלתו) has a gematria value of 716. The first occurrence of 716 in pi begins from position 39, and is followed by the three digits 939.

39 is the gematria value of יהוה אחד (“one LORD”)
the 939th word in the Hebrew Bible is יהוה (“LORD”) in Gen 3:14

The next three digits are 937. There are 937 words in the first 69 chapters of the Bible, which in this slice of pi (6939937) encapsulates the “one LORD” ideology so crucial to monotheism. This is important, as in the previous verse (Deu 32:8) it was Elyon (עליון) translated as “The Most High” who divided the nations, and set the divisions of man.

עליון (Elyon) has a gematria value of 166
the 166th word in the Bible is להבדיל (“to divide”)

Elyon is the formal title of El, who in the Ugaritic literature of ancient Canaan ruled over a pantheon of lesser gods. Preceding 716 in this pi sequence are the six digits 288419.

the totient of 888 = 288
Jesus was "about thirty" when he began his Ministry
the Bible’s first 30 verses consist of 419 Hebrew words

The sequence 101000 is followed by the four digits 3137:

                                                 “I am that bread of life” Joh 6:48
                                                                  Εγω ειμι ο αρτος της ζωης
                                                                 808 65 70 671 508 1015   =   3137

The sequence 110 is followed by 5559. After his life being threatened by Jezebel, a frightened Elijah fled south across Judah, and into the wilderness beyond (1 Ki 19:1-4). After being visited by an angel, Elijah walked forty days and forty nights, to the mountain at Horeb. And lo, the LORD passed by.

Elijah Fed by an Angel (1660-1663) by Ferdinand Bol (1616-1680). “And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.” 1 Ki 19:7

“And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake 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:” 1 Ki 19:11
ויאמר צא ועמדת בהר לפני יהוה והנה יהוה עבר ורוח גדולה וחזק מפרק הרים ומשבר סלעים לפני יהוה לא ברוח יהוה ואחר הרוח רעש לא ברעש יהוה
26 572 31 570 219 215 26 216 31 26 170 210 548 255 420 121 48 220 272 26 66 26 170 207 520 91 257 = 5559

And after the wind, the earthquake and the fire… a still small voice. The phrase “a still small voice" (קול דממה דקה) has a gematria value of 334. Beginning from position 334 in pi are the four digits 8292.

Following the miraculous catch of 153 fish, in his third appearance since his resurrection, Jesus gave his disciples bread and fish:

             “Jesus then cometh, and taketh bread, and giveth them, and fish likewise.” Joh 21:13
                           Ερχεται ουν ο ιησους και λαμβανει τον αρτον και διδωσιν αυτοις και το οψαριον ομοιως
                            1021 520 70 888    31    139 420    521    31    1078    981    31 370 1001 1190   =   8292

the word “bread” appears in 330 Bible verses (KJV)

Beginning from position 330 in pi are the four digits 0962:

Psalm 119

The longest chapter in the Bible is Psalm 119, which is an eight-fold alphabetic acrostic. That is, each letter of the Hebrew alphabet is assigned eight verses. The Hebrew letter with a gematria value of 30 is lamed (ל). The first “lamed” verse in Psalm 119 has a gematria value of (0)962.

                         “LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.” Psa 119:89
                                                        לעולם יהוה דברך נצב בשמים
                                                                           392    142    226    26    176   =   962

The first word in this verse; לעולם (“LAMED. For ever”) has a gematria value of 176, the same as the number of verses (22 x 8) in Psalm 119. The skill of the poet has only recently begun to be appreciated. For example, in the spirit of the Psalm’s octal structure, there are eight main words used for “Torah”, with English translations including word, statutes, law, commandments, judgements, testimonies, ordinances and precepts.

1111² = 1234321
1234321 is the 556th centered octagonal number

The first occurrence of 556 in pi is followed by the four digits 2099. This is the gematria value of a verse from the Book of Isaiah:

"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
למען ידעו ממזרח שמש וממערבה כי אפס בלעדי אני יהוה ואין עוד
80 67 26 61 116 141 30 363 640 295 90 190 = 2099

the term "from the rising of the sun" (ממזרח שמש) has a gematria value of 935
the word "Jesus" appears in 935 Bible verses (KJV)
the word הארץ ("the earth") appears 935 times in the Tanakh
the term "from the rising of the sun, and from the west" (ממזרח שמש וממערבה) has a gematria value of 1298
the first occurrence of 1298 in pi begins from position 499
light from the sun takes 499 seconds to reach the earth

The next verse (Isa 45:7) begins "I form the light" (יוצר אור), which has a gematria value of 513. The first occurrence of 513 in pi is preceded by the six digits 148086:

the numerical value of "Christ" (χριστος) = 1480
the gematria value of אלהים (Elohim) = 86
the word "light" appears 272 times in the Bible (KJV)
the word "covenant" appears in 272 Bible verses (KJV)
the first occurrence of 1234321 in pi is preceded by the three digits 612
the gematria value of "covenant" (ברית) = 612

1234321 (octal) = 342225 (decimal)
the first occurrence of 342225 in pi is preceded by the three digits 888
the numerical value of "Jesus" (ιησους) = 888

the first occurrence of 342225 in pi begins from position 139,194
139 + 194 = 333
333 (octal) = 219 (decimal)
the first occurrence of 612 ("covenant") in pi begins from position 219

In kabbalah, the sephirot associated with the Messiah is tiphereth (תפארת) which means "beauty" or "glory". Tipharah or tiphereth is Strongs H8597, which is translated 51 times in 50 Bible verses (KJV). One of these is in Isa 64:11, where it is spelled ותפארתנו making it the only word in the Hebrew Bible with a gematria value of 1143.

the gematria value of תורה (Torah) = 611
611 (decimal) = 1143 (octal)

This word tiphereth can also be spelled with an added "lamed" (see 2 Ch 3:6) to become לתפארת which also has a gematria value of 1111.

The word “lamed” (למד) means “to learn” and “to teach” (Strongs H3925).

Strongs H3925 is translated 86 times in the Bible (KJV)
86 is the gematria value of אלהים (Elohim) translated as “God”
the word “lamed” (למד) has a gematria value of 74
the 74th prime number is 373
373 is the numerical value of λογος (“Word”) from John 1:1

The words “learn” and “teach” appear respectively in 32 and 108 Bible verses (KJV).

32 x 108 = 3456

The first occurrence of 3456 in pi begins from position 2486:

In another coincidence, enough to delight even the poet, 2486 is the gematria value of the eighth verse of the Bible’s eighth chapter (Gen 8:8). This verse begins with "Also he sent forth a dove" (וישלח את היונה) which has a gematria value of 831. Beginning from position 831 in pi are the three digits 334, which as we have already seen, is the gematria value of "a still small voice" (קול דממה דקה) from 1 Ki 19:12 .

the totient of 334 ("a still small voice") = 166 (Elyon), "the most High"
the totient of 831 = 552

The first occurrence of 552 in pi is followed by the four digits 1334:

"And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD." Isa 59:20
ובא לציון גואל ולשבי פשע ביעקב נאם יהוה
26 91 184 450 348 40 186 9 = 1334

It is the penitent Israelites ("them that turn from transgression in Jacob") who will enjoy the long predicted salvation, not the whole nation. In the above verse, the term "them that turn from transgression in Jacob" (ולשבי פשע ביעקב) has a gematria value of 982. The first occurrence of 982 in pi is followed by the four digits 1480:

the numerical value of χριστος ("Christ") = 1480
the following two digits are 86
the gematria value of אלהים (Elohin) = 86
the first occurrence of 982 in pi begins from position 100
the gematria of ישראל ("Israel") = 541, the 100th prime number
the word "Redeemer/redeemer" appears 18 times in the Bible (KJV)
Job 19:25 said "I know that my redeemer liveth..."
the word "liveth" is חי (chai), which has a gematria value of 18

Sir Neville Marriner performing I Know That My Redeemer Liveth, Sylvia McNair, The Academy of St. Martin in the Fields.

The Hebrew word for "redeemer" is גאל (ga'al), which sometimes refers to God, who is the Redeemer of Israel. Job, however, is not referring to God, but about a future kinsman (redeemer) by whom he will vindicated for what God has done to him. In the Bible, when Redeemer refers to God, it is spelled with a capital R.

the word "Redeemer" (capital R) appears 8 times in the Bible (KJV)

Appropriately, the first occurrence of 3456 in pi is followed by the single digit 8.

Beginning from position 3456 in pi are the three digits 210, the number of years of the Egyptian exile. Both these are straight line numbers (of which only 96 are not repdigits). Again, the next digit is 8.

the patriarch Jacob was born in the year 2108 on the Hebrew calendar
210 x 8 = 1680

The first verse in Matthew’s Gospel commences the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David (Mat 1:1). In this verse, “Christ” (χριστου) has a numerical value of 1680. Beginning from position 1680 in pi are the four digits 8438, which is the numerical value of Mar 3:18 in which are listed the names of eight of Jesus’ chosen disciples:

"And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite," Mar 3:18
και ανδρεαν και φιλιππον και βαρθολομαιον και ματθαιον και θωμαν και ιακωβον τον του αλφαιου και θαδδαιον και σιμωνα τον κανανιτην
31 211 31 830 31 453 31 481 31 900 31 953 420 770 1012 31 149 31 1101 420 490 = 8438

Synaxis of the Twelve Apostles by Constantinople master (early 14th Century) Pushkin museum.

The numerical values of these eight disciples sum to 5078. The first occurrence of 5078 in pi is followed by the three digits 424, which is the gematria value of משיח בן דוד (Moshiach ben David) who is Jesus Christ, the son of David.

The Greek word “disciple” is μαθητης (mathetes) G3101, which originally meant learner, or student.

μαθητης (mathetes) has a numerical value of 566
the first occurrence of 566 in pi begins from position 210 (the years of the Egyptian exile)

In the Hebrew Bible, the equivalent word to the Greek "disciple" is למוד (lammud) Strongs H3928 meaning “one who is taught”. H3928 is translated three times in the Book of Isaiah, including Isa 8:16 where it is translated as “disciples” in the KJV. In this verse, the word is בלמדי (“among my disciples”) which has a gematria value of 86.

the gematria value of אלהים (Elohim) = 86
the third occurrence of 86 in pi is preceded by the four digits 1480
the numerical value of Χριστος (“Christ”) = 1480

Strongs H3928 “lammud” (adjective) is taken from the root word “lamed” Strongs H3925 (verb). Immediately preceding lamed in the Hebrew alphabet is the letter kaph (כ), which has a gematria value of 20. On account of its spooned shape, the word “kaph” (כף) Strongs H3709 means hand, particularly a curved palm of the hand.

H3709 is translated a total of 192 times in the Bible (KJV) = 24 x 8
H3709 is translated as “hand” 128 times = 16 x 8
H3709 is translated as “spoon” 24 times = 3 x 8
the word כף (kaph) has a gematria value of 100
the 100th prime number is 541, the gematria value of ישראל (“Israel”).

In Psalm 119, the first word of the last KAPH verse begins with the letter כ (kaph). This word כחסדך (“after thy lovingkindness”) has a gematria value of 112.

the Genesis 1:1 and John 1:1 triangle is 112 rows deep

Like the Hebrew alphabet, the final KAPH verse consists of 22 letters. It has a total gematria value of 1332. Jesus said that he was the first and the last, the Alpha and the Omega. In the Nestle-Aland textform of the Greek New Testament, Alpha and Omega is αλφα ω, which has a numerical value of 1332.

The Greek Alpha and Omega (the first and the last) have their equivalent in the Hebrew Aleph and Tav. In the Aramaic section of the Tanakh, the combination of these two letters form the word את (owth) meaning “signs”, or “miraculous signs” (H852) and is translated three times in three Bible verses (Dan 4:2; 4:3; 6:27). These signs and wonders were wrought to Daniel by the high God (Elah Illay).

אלהא (Elah) translated “God” has a gematria value of 37
עלי (Illay) translated as “high” has a gematria value of 111 = 3 x 37

It’s interesting that the Strongs reference number (H852) corresponds with the numerical value of τριακοντα (“thirty”), the age at which Jesus began his ministry. The word “signs” appears in 52 Bible verses (KJV), and the first occurrence of 52 in pi overlaps 852, and is followed by 110 (equal to 6 in binary) then 5559 (1 Ki 19:11).

Emanuel: God With Us

In Mat 1:23, the word Εμμανουηλ ("Emmanuel") is interpreted as “God with us” (μεθ ημων ο θεος), which has a numerical value of 1306. In another coincidence, the first occurrence of 1306 in pi is followed by the two digits 20 (the gematria value of the letter kaph), then those same four digits 5559 (1 Ki 19:11).

The intermediate digits are 110 in the first instance, and 20 in the second.

110 x 20 = 2200

Beginning from position 2200 in pi are the two digits 26 (“LORD”) then 86 (“God”).

Mat 1:23 is the 23168th verse in the Bible, which is one (God) encompassed by 2368, the numerical value of Ιησους Χριστος (“Jesus Christ”).

the term "one God" appears in eight Bible verses (KJV)

Mat 1:21-23 is a fulfilment of the Messianic prophesy taken from the Book of Isaiah:

“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.” Isa 7:14

There is stunning coherence between these accounts in Isaiah and Matthew. Jesus said: I am the bread of life, and we have already seen that the word “bread” appears in 330 Bible verses (KJV). And we’ve seen that beginning from position 330 in pi are the four digits 0962.

Mat 1:23 is verse number 23168 in the Bible (KJV)
Isa 7:14 is verse number 17797 in the Bible (KJV)
23168 – 17797 = 5371

Beginning from position 5371 in pi are those same four digits 0962, which is the gematria value of the first LAMED verse in Psalm 119 (see above).

the Hebrew עמנואל (“Immanuel”) has a gematria value of 197
the Greek εμμανουηλ (“Emmanuel”) has a numerical value of 644
197 + 644 = 841
beginning from position 841 in pi is the 8th occurrence of the two digits 26 (“LORD”)

The first occurrence of 197 in pi begins from position 37, which number is a factor of all repdigits from 111 to 999.

the (I)(E)mmanuel prophesy was foretold in verse numbers 14 (Isaiah) and 23 (Matthew)
14 + 23 = 37

The number 26 is the first two digit number to appear twice in the decimal digits of pi.

there are 13 digits between the first two occurrences of 26 (“LORD”) in pi
the gematria of אחד (echad) translated as “one” as in “one LORD” = 13.

3.1415926535897932384626433832…

the intermediate digits sum to 72
the totient of 72 = 24
37 x 24 = 888 (“Jesus”)

It’s interesting that “Emmanuel” has one Bible reference, whilst “Immanuel” has two. The other (Isa 8:8) gives another nod to the eight-fold alphabetic structure of Psalm 119.

Isa 8:8 gives 8 x 8 = 64
The third occurrence of 26 in pi is followed by the two digits 64
37 x 64 = 2368, the numerical value of Ιησους Χριστος ("Jesus Christ")

A conversion of the number 72 to other number bases is also revealing:

72 (decimal) = 110 (octal)
the first occurrence of 13 (“one”) in pi begins from position 110
72 (decimal) = 2200 (base 3)
beginning from position 2200 in pi are the two digits 26 (“LORD”) see above

I Thirst

During the third appearance of the resurrected Jesus, a strange conversation took place. Three times Jesus asked Simon Peter: lovest thou me? To which Simon Peter became increasingly grieved (see Joh 13:38). On each occasion, after replies in the affirmative, Jesus instructed:

John 21:15 Feed my lambs (βοσκε τα αρνια μου) numerical value = 1270
John 21:16 Feed my sheep (ποιμαινε τα προβατα μου) numerical value = 1631
John 21:17 Feed my sheep (βοσκε τα προβατα μου) numerical value = 1662

1270 + 1631 + 1662 = 4563
the first occurrence of 4563 in pi is followed by the three digits 288

the totient of 888 (Jesus) = 288
(21 x 15) + (21 x 16) + (21 x 17) = 1008
the totient of 1008 = 288

beginning from position 288 in pi are the two digits 72
beginning from position 4563 in pi are the two digits 72
beginning from position 1008 in pi are the two digits 72

1008 is the numerical value of αρμαγεδδων (“Armageddon”) from Rev 16:16
16 x 16 = 256
the words “Jesus” and “Christ” appear together in 256 Bible verses (KJV)

The first occurrence of 256 in pi is followed by the four digits 8876:

8876 is the numerical value of a verse from the Gospel of John, giving an account of Jesus on the cross, just before his death.

"After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst." Joh 19:28
μετα τουτο ειδως ο ιησους οτι παντα ηδη τετελεσται ινα τελειωθηι η γραφη λεγει διψω
346 1140 1019 70 888 380 432 20 1156 61 1177 8 612 53 1514 = 8876

In this verse, Jesus said: "I thirst" (διψω) which has a numerical value of 1514. The occurrences of the number 72 at positions 288, 1008 and 4563 in pi are immediately followed by the single digits 6, 0 and 2 respectively.

6 + 0 + 2 = 8

If, instead, the following two digits are taken, then:

60 + 01 + 21 = 82
the 82nd Hebrew word in the Bible is אלהים (Elohim) translated as "God"
this 82nd word is in the 8th verse, and is the 9th mention of אלהים (Elohim) in the Bible
8 x 9 = 72

288 / 8 = 36
1008 / 8 = 126
36 x 126 = 4536

Remarkably, the first occurrence of 1514 ("I thirst") in pi begins from position 4536:

1514 is the gematria value of Psalm 119, verse 72:

       "The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver." Psa 119:72
                              טוב לי תורת פיך מאלפי זהב וכסף
                                                            166    14 161     110   1006 40   17   =   1514

When Jesus said: "I thirst" (Joh 19:28), they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it to his mouth (Joh 19:29).

the numerical value of the Greek word στομα ("mouth") = 611
the gematria value of the Hebrew word תורה (Torah) translated as "law" = 611

The word "thirst" appears 31 times in the Bible (KJV). This is the gematria value of אל (El) Strongs H410, translated as "God" 213 times in the Bible (KJV). The first occurrence of 213 in pi is followed by the four digits 3936, which is the gematria value of a verse from the Book of Deuteronomy which reiterates the point made by Jesus in Mat 22:32 (see the opening lines of this article).

"The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day." Deu 5:3
לא את אבתינו כרת יהוה את הברית הזאת כי אתנו אנחנו אלה פה היום כלנו חיים
68 106 61 85 36 115 457 30 413 617 401 26 620 469 401 31 = 3936

In this verse "all of us" is in Hebrew אלה (el-leh) Strongs H428.

Strongs H428 is translated in 18 Bible verses (KJV)
the gematria value of חי (chai) meaning "life"or "live" = 18
the gematria value of אלה (el-leh) = 36 = 2 x 18

The word "thirst" appears in 31 Bible verses, and 6 of these are in the Gospel of John.

the word "thirst" appears in John 4:13; 4:14; 4:15; 6:35; 7:37; 19:28
(4 x 13) + (4 x 14) + (4 x 15) + (6 x 35) + (7 x 37) + (19 x 28) = 7137

Jesus said, "I am the bread of life", saying those that come to him would never hunger, and never thirst (Joh 6:35).

the term "I am the bread of life" (εγω ειμι ο αρτος της ζωης) has a numerical value of 3137
3137 + 7137 = 10310

The first occurrence of 10310 in pi begins from position 8193:

"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Mat 5:6
μακαριοι οι πεινωντες και διψωντες την δικαιοσυνην οτι αυτοι χορτασθησονται
252 80 1500 31 2069 358 823 380 781 1919 = 8193

It was customary during the Festival of Sukkot to bring water in a golden pitcher from the pool of Siloam to the Temple. This was to remind the people of the water from the rock in the desert (Num 20:7-11), and as a symbol of hope for messianic deliverance (Isa 12:2-4). On each day of the festival there was a procession, including prayers for deliverance (Hosanna meaning "deliver" or "save"). The last great day of Sukkot is Hosanna Rabbah (the Great Hosanna), the culmination of those prayers. It was to the pool of Siloam that Jesus sent the blind man, who washed therein and received sight (Joh 9:7-11).

On Hosanna Rabbah, Jesus said "If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink" (Joh 7:37). In this verse, "thirst" (διψαι) has a numerical value of 725. Beginning from position 725 in pi are the three digits 344, the gematria value of ובני עליון כלכם ("you are all children of the most High (Elyon))" from Psa 82:6.

Conspicuously, the next two digits are 18, the gematria value of חי (chai) meaning "life". Can it be coincidence that there were eighteen who perished when the tower in Siloam fell? (Luk 13:3-5)

When Jesus said "I thirst", they put a vinegar-filled sponge to his mouth. The Greek word οξος (oxos), translated as "vinegar", has a numerical value of 400. The first occurrence of 400 in pi is followed by the four digits 9277:

After receiving the vinegar, Jesus' last words were "It is finished", and he gave up the ghost..

"And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people." Act 3:23
εσται δε πασα ψυχη ητις αν μη ακουσηι του προφητου εκεινου εξολοθρευθησεται εκ του λαου
      516   9 282   1708   518 51 48 709    770    1528       560       1282 25   770   501   =   9277

The prophet is the one predicted by Moses (Act 3:22) in the Book of Deuteronomy:

"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 in pi begins from position 9323. This is the numerical value for a verse from the Gospel of John, justifying the death of Jesus:

             "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

The Zohar

In the Book of Exodus, the miracle of the parting of the Sea of Reeds is recounted in three Bible verses (Exo 14:19-21) which each consist of 72 Hebrew letters. From these, a complex divine name of 72 triads is composed. According to the Zohar Beshalah (Exodus) 48b, it was by invoking the power of this formula that Moses was able to part the sea, enabling the Israelites to escape Pharaoh and the Egyptian army.

The Zohar, the principal work in the literature of Kabbalah, is a mystical commentary on the Torah. The Hebrew word zohar (זהר) has a gematria value of 212. The first occurrence of 212 (Zohar) in pi immediately follows the three digits 611:

the gematria value of "Torah" (תורה) = 611

The word zohar (זהר) Strongs H2096 means "brightness (of the sky)", and appears twice in the Bible (Eze 8:2, Dan 12:3).

Eze 8:2 has a gematria value of 4228. Appropriately, the first occurrence of 4228 in pi is followed by the three digits 813:

                  "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light." Gen 1:3
                                            ויאמר אלהים יהי אור ויהי אור
                                                             207   31    207 25     86           257   =   813

the first occurrence of 4228 (Eze 8:2) begins from position 4,607 in pi
the first occurrence of 2187 (Dan 12:3) begins from position 3,317
4607 - 3317 = 1290

The number 1290 appears in the Bible eight verses after Daniel's "zohar" verse:

"And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be taken away, and the abomination that maketh desolate set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days." Dan 12:11

The term "a thousand two hundred and ninety" (אלף מאתים ותשעים) has a gematria value of 1428. The first occurrence of 1428 in pi is followed by the four digits 1388:

             "I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD." Gen 49:18
                                                   לישועתך קויתי יהוה
                                                                       26        526         836   =   1388

Beginning from position 1388 in pi are the two digits 72:

this is the 14th occurrence of 72 in pi
14 x 72 = 1008
beginning from position 1008 in pi are the two digits 72
the oldest complete manuscript of the Hebrew Bible (Leningrad Codex) is dated 1008 CE

Also from the Zohar (shine on):

“When Adam was in the Garden of Eden, God sent down to him a book by the hand of Raziel, the angel in charge of the holy mysteries. In this book were supernal inscriptions containing the sacred wisdom, and seventy-two branches of wisdom expounded so as to show the formation of six hundred and seventy inscriptions of higher mysteries.” Bereshith 55b.

there are 670 inscriptions of higher mysteries in Adam’s Book
the first occurrence of 670 in pi is followed by the four digits 4038

                              “And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.” Mar 15:37

Continuing from the Zohar:

“In the middle of the book was a secret writing explaining the thousand and five hundred keys which were not revealed even to the holy angels, and all of which were locked up in this book until it came into the hands of Adam.” Bereshith 55b.

God also showed Adam the wise men of each generation, to which, paraphrasing Psa 139:17, he exclaimed:

“How precious in mine eyes are thy companions, O God , how mighty are the chiefs of them.” Zohar, Bereshith 55b.

Adam’s book containing 72 branches of wisdom included 1500 keys
the gematria value of Psa 139:17 = 1545

Suddenly, R. Jose said: ‘It comes to my memory that in this place I was once sitting with my father and he said to me: “When you will reach the age of sixty years you are destined to find in this place a treasure of sublime wisdom.” I have lived to reach that age, and I have not found the treasure, but I wonder if the words spoken by us just now are not the wisdom that he meant…. At this point R. Jose left him and entered a cavern, at the farther end of which he found a book hidden in the cleft of a rock. He brought it out and caught sight of seventy-two tracings of letters which had been given to Adam the first man, …When they came to R. Simeon, they told him what had occurred. He said to them: ‘Were you, perhaps, scrutinising those letters which dealt with the coming of the Messiah?’ They answered: ‘We cannot tell, as we have forgotten everything.’ R. Simeon continued: ‘The Holy One, blessed be He, does not desire that so much should be revealed to the world, but when the days of the Messiah will be near at hand, even children will discover the secrets of wisdom and thereby be able to calculate the millennium; at that time it will be revealed to all, as it is written, “For then will I turn to the peoples a pure language, etc (Zeph 3:9)…” (Vayera 117b-118a)

“For then will I turn to the people a pure language, that they may all call upon the name of the LORD, to serve him with one consent.” Zep 3:9

                                                             13     26         102      26       541      410   =   1118


The numerical configuration 559918559 is centered around position 2220 in pi.

the numerical value of ιωαννης βαπτιστης (“John the Baptist”) = 2220

In accord with the octal theme of Psalm 119, the number 2220 (decimal) = 4254 in base 8 (octal). This is the gematria value of a verse from the Book of Ezekiel, relating to the resurrection of the dead before the day of judgement:

"And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves," Eze 37:13
וידעתם כי אני יהוה בפתחי את קברותיכם ובהעלותי אתכם מקברותיכם עמי
120 818 461 529 778 401 500 26 61 30 530 = 4254

In this verse, the term "And ye shall know that I am the LORD" (וידעתם כי אני יהוה) has a gematria value of 647. The first occurrence of 647 in pi begins from position 118; conspicuous as being the last three digits of the Shema (1,118). The missing 1,000 carries with it a revelation:

Beginning from position 1,000 in pi are the three digits 938. This is the gematria value of a verse from the prophet Amos, which also addresses the Day of the LORD:

"Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?" Amo 5:20
הלא חשך יום יהוה ולא אור ואפל ולא נגה לו
36 58 37 117 207 37 26 56 328 36 = 938

938 (decimal) = 1652 (octal)
beginning from position 1652 in pi are the three digits 613

according to tradition, there are 613 commandments in the Torah
"In the Torah" (בתורה) has a gematria value of 613
beginning from position 613 in pi are the two digits 26 ("LORD")

In pi, the three digits beginning from positions 118 and 1,000 are 647 and 938 respectively (see above).

118 + 1,000 = 1,118 (The Shema)
647 + 938 = 1585

The first occurrence of 1585 in pi begins from position 11,943:

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Rom 10:9
οτι εαν ομολογησηις εν τωι στοματι σου κυριον ιησουν και πιστευσηις εν τηι καρδιαι σου οτι ο θεος αυτον ηγειρεν εκ νεκρων σωθησηι
380 56 709 55 1110 921 670 650 738 31 1413 55 318 146 670 380 70 284 821 181 25 1025 1235 = 11943

11943 (decimal) = 27247 (octal)

The first occurrence of 27247 in pi is followed by the three digits 365:

According to that same tradition, there are 365 negative commandments in the Torah.

the term "Thou shalt not" appears in 219 Bible verses (KJV)
365 (decimal) = 555 (octal)
219 (decimal) = 333 (octal)
555 + 333 = 888 ("Jesus")

The Torah (“law”) was God’s covenant with Moses and with the people (Exo 34:27).

the gematria value of "covenant" (ברית) = 612
the first occurrence of 612 in pi begins from position 219
the first occurrence of 612 in pi overlaps 284

the numerical value of θεος (Theos) translated as “God” = 284
תורה (Torah) is Strongs H8451
Strongs H8451 is translated 219 times in the Bible (KJV)

In Rom 10:9 (see above), "Lord Jesus" is spelled κυριον ιησουν, which has a numerical value of 1388. This is the gematria value of a verse in the Book of Genesis speaking of salvation. The name "Jesus" is from the Greek Iesous, but was originally in Hebrew Yeshuwah (ישועה).

         "I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD." Gen 49:18
                                                לישועתך קויתי יהוה
                                                                    26        526         836   =   1388

This verse consists of just three words: Yeshuwah and the LORD, separated by קויתי ("I have waited") which has a gematria value of 526. The first occurrence of 526 in pi begins from position 612 (covenant).

The following four digits are 3560, which is the gematria value of a verse from the prophet Hosea, sounding a promising note for the end times:

"Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days." Hos 3:5
אחר ישבו בני ישראל ובקשו את יהוה אלהיהם ואת דוד מלכם ופחדו אל יהוה ואל טובו באחרית הימים
105 621 23 37 26 31 104 130 14 407 91 26 401 414 541 62 318 209 = 3560

The word "salvation" appears 164 times in the Bible (KJV). Beginning from position 164 in pi are the five digits 02701.

(0)2701 is the gematria value of the very first verse in the Bible ("In the beginning ...."), here followed by 938 (Amo 5:20). With the day of the LORD fast approaching, the Lord Jesus represents a new beginning for all. The time of waiting is soon to pass.
