It follows therefore that every word, name, verse, chap- ter, and every book in the Bible value. conveted ex-Russian anarchist by the name of Ivan Panin noted this fact and he immediately began the investigation of the numerical values of certain words, names, verses, chapters, and books of the Bible. Let us note just o iew of the hundreds of numerical com- binations and phenomena which are contained in the original He- brew and Greck scriptures. There are seven names applied |to Our Lord in the Greek of the New Testament: Jesus, Ohrist, Lord, Saviour, Emmanuel, Messiah, and Scn. Since each Greek letter has a numerical value equal to the sum of the numerical values of the letters. Now the remarkable thing about each of the sums cor responding to each name i fact that each sum is exactly di- visible by the number eight, which in Scriptural symbology is the Res- urrection number, Christ being the Resurrected One. For example, the sum of the Greek Iletters TESOUS (corresponding to the Eng- lish for Jesus) equals 888 which is exactly divisible by 8. And so cimilarly with the sums of the let- ters in the other names of Our Lord. The first 11 verses of the New ‘Testament contain the genealogy of Christ from Abraham to the Ba- bylonian captivity. In the original Greek this passage contains 49 words (or 7 sevens). Of these 49 words 28 (or 4 seven) begin with a vowel and 21 (or 3 sevens) begin with a consonant; seven end with a vowel, and 42 (or 6 sevens) end with a consonant. Again: these 49 words of the volcabulary have - in the Hebrew except for a few|266 letters (or 53 sevens). chapters in the Book of Daniel 266 letters 140 (or 20 sevens) are| which were written in the Chaldee. |vowels, and 126 (or 18 sevens) are| The New Testament was written |consonants. must have a definite numerical |occur but once; seven of the words A number of years ago a|occur in more than one form, and| Of these Again: of these 49 words of the genealogy 35 (or 5 sevens) occur more than once in the passage and 14 (or 2 sevens) | 42 (or 6 sevens) occur in only one| form. Among the parts of speech the 49 words are divided thus: 42| (or 6 sevens) are nouns, seven are| not nouns. Of the nouns 35 (or 5 sevens) re proper names, seven are common nouns. Of the proper names 28 (or 4 sevens) are male| ancestors of Christ, and seven are not, This enumeration by no means exhausts the numeic phen- omena of this passage but is serves to illustrate our point that the phenomena exists. Plainly the gen- ealogy has been constructed on an elaborate system of sevens. In-| vestigation by Mr. Panin and other students has revealed the fact that every passage of Scripture, both "d and New Testament, has been! astructed on some such similar| numerical scheme. The student convinced of ine presence of this numeric phen-| omena then inquires if it occurred | by chance or by design, and if by| “ design, by whom was the design prepared? Evidence of this num- eric phenomena can be so infinitely multiplied by the very presence of the numerics in the Word that all chances for the phenomena to be accidental are eliminated by the very law of chance itself, or as the mathematics student calls it, by | the algebraic law of permutations| and combinations.

But the Apossle Matthew must have accomplished il in less ihan a month for his entire Gospel was completed four years after the cru- cifixion of Christ. Now the gen- ealogy comprises less than two per cent of St. Matthew's Gospel and we must also remember that the numeric phenomena is present in all of the Gospel. Matthew could not . therefore have spent four years working out numerie scheme for the first 11 verses and then have staid up late nights for a week in order to complete the balance of his writings.
