Theomatic Example #1


In presenting this subject to people, it is difficult to know where to begin. As someone eloquently expressed it--- "you feel like a mosquito in a nudist colony."

Theomatics is enormous! It is so mind boggling! And at times, incomprehensible!

It will take a concerted effort, determination, and enthusiasm, for a person to grasp the meaning of what we are seeing here. It will take the Church a good part of eternity before all the saints in heaven are fully able to digest the sum total---of what existed in the mind of God---when He designed and orchestrated the mathematics of His eternal Word.

As our web page on the Numerical Structure explained, the entire Bible was put together supernaturally by God---to operate on a numerical system or code. What we are finding and seeing right now with theomatics, are bits and pieces of that system and code coming to the surface.

It is impossible to calculate both the importance and significance of this subject---as it relates to man's understanding of God and the Bible. The implications are staggering. Only God knows how far He will allow man to look into, and subsequently run with this thing.

Theomatics II goes into great depth to explain various and important aspects of the structure. There are many intricacies and complexities in the structure, that can require a great deal of explanation. Theomatics is not a difficult subject to understand. But it is somewhat of a challenge to throw all of this out on theWeb, without becoming bogged down in deep discussion---attempting to second guess numerous questions that various readers will have. We shall do everything possible to keep things simple and straight forward..

The best way to illustrate this subject, the most effective approach to begin with, is by showing the reader how the same numbers consistently appear over and over again, when various key words and phrases are examined.

For this first example on the Internet, we wanted to use something new. We did not want to give the reader the impression that we were only presenting our "best stuff" ---carefully derived after years of research. So we set out to discover a new theomatic pattern in the Bible. Something that would be very typical and considered "average." In otherwords, the type of thing that can be seen hundreds and thousands of times throughout the Bible text.

Theomatics is so pervasive, that it took less than thirty minutes to randomly discover the following. It was found only today (December 30, 1996). Again, it will simply illustrate the type of thing that occurs in the Bible "thousands" of times.

The following is not spectacularly consistent---like some of the other structures discovered heretofore. Yet it will be very impressive. In our files, we have many hundreds of similar examples. Most of them are far more compelling---from a scientific perspective. Yet the people who look carefully at the following---the skeptics and those who tend not to be easily impressed---they should be completely blown away.

The Tree of Life in the Midst of the Garden

One subject that has always been fascinating, but one that we had never really looked into seriously, concerned the trees that God planted in the garden of Eden, particularly the tree of life. It came somewhat as a surprise that the tree of life is actually mentioned numerous times in the Bible. A close examination of these references yielded an amazing theomatic consistency with the number 240.

The Number 240

Let us begin by looking at the very first time in the Bible, where it talks about the tree of life. There were actually two trees that God placed in the garden of Eden---the tree of life, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It was from eating the fruit of the second tree, that caused our first parents to fall and become sinners.
The Hebrew words "and the tree of life," actually consist of two words. The conjunction "and" is a single Hebrew letter that joins right to the word "tree." The word "and tree" has a numerical value of 166, and the word "of life" has a value of 73. Together they equal exactly 239, which is within the cluster of one number of 240.
And here is the Hebrew word for "of life" or "life" by itself. It has a value of 73, and also falls within the cluster, this time of just the number 24.
When God created man, the text states that "he breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being."
When the Lord breathed into man's nostrils, He breathed into him from His very own spirit. Now what is important to point out here, is that the Hebrew word for "breath," is the same exact word as "spirit." Is it any surprise then, that the most significant and sacred words possible in relation to the Lord Jehovah creating man, produce the following feature in theomatics?
After the serpent deceived Eve, the Lord pronounced his judgement. "Upon your belly you will crawl and dust you will eat all the days of your life." Here is the one Hebrew word translated "your life."
After God kicked man out of the garden, here is what happened.
Thus we find that every major key short word in the Genesis account, comes out to 24 theomatically.
But what we are going to find out next, from this point on, is not only do we see the number 24 on short significant words, but every single reference also sontains a multiple of 240! A number that size is certain to be far more impressive---from a statistical or math/probability standpoint.
The number 24 is very significant in the Bible---in matters that relate to eternal destiny and eternal life. For example, in the book of Revelation, it talks numerous times about the twenty four elders who are around the throne of God in heaven (Rev 4:4). The number 24 is mentioned in other parts of the Bible as well.

When one spends years in research, and studies this phenomena, certain things become immediately apparently because they happen so regularly. This is especially true with the numbers 24 and 240.

Now in looking through a computer concordance, it will be discovered that there are eleven verses in the Bible that use the words "tree of life." Additionally, there are a number of other references that refer specifically to the tree of life, but use just the word "tree" and not the word "life."

We will begin looking at all of the above, but first here is an important comment.

Now let us look at these occurrences and see what happens with various words and short phrases. Let us go back and look at this from the beginning, from the first reference.

"... and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil" (Genesis 2:9).

Here is the second occurrence which consists of but five Hebrew words. The example shown is straight out of the text as the words appear. It sounds awkward in English, but makes sense in Hebrew.

Now here is the third ocurrence. Look at these next features! The reason they work out to 2400 and 240, is because the emphasis is on guarding the tree of life.

What is interesting above, is that even though the examples shown are outstanding, when the words "tree of life" appeared in the phrase, it did not work out to 240. But there is still structure present---based on 24. The following four examples come from but the last three Hebrew words and the Hebrew particle proceeding them (untranslatable.)

There is so much other numerical structure present in these words and phrases, dozens of clear cut and discernable patterns all orchestrating together. For example, everything to do with man approaching God's presence and holiness, is based upon the number 26. The name JEHOVAH in Hebrew has a value of just 26. And we see from the above, where the word "the way," produces a multiple of 24 x 26.

It is difficult to try and explain much of what is being seen, without elaborating on every point, thus becoming bogged down in our discussion. Let's move on.

The tree of life is mentioned only four times more in the Old Testament. All four occurences are in the book of Proverbs, and they all produce a multiple of 240. Here is the first one.

The second occurrence, is in chapter 11. The following feature consists of but four Hebrew words, but requires ten English words for the translation.

Here is reference number three. The last part of this verse has only four Hebrew words. The translation of the following may seem to be a little awkward, but the inherent meaning and theomatic pattern of 240 is clearly present in the structure.

The last occurrence from Proverbs is the following. Here again there are but four Hebrew words.

Now let us jump to the Greek New Testament. Here is where we will see the 240 pattern literally explode. Let us start out by looking at the words of Jesus.

The word in Greek, meaning "the one overcoming" has a numerical value of 1000, a very significant number to do with power and victory. However, in Revelation 15, it refers to the saints as the "ones overcoming" in the plural. These saints who overcome will be granted permission to eat of the tree of life.

Now let us look at the explosion of design from the rest of this verse.

Here is the most distinct word possible.

Now here is another phenomena. The Greek word for tree, appears with the definite article, which either means "the" or is untranslatable. Throughout the theomatic structure, whenever one encouters the square of a number, that fact is very significant. The following is a multiple of 576, or 24 x 24.

Another interesting sidelight is this. Do you remember from the Hebrew where God breathed into the nostrils of man his spirit or breath, and we saw all the 24's. In John 3, the word spirit is translated as wind (or breath). In the verse from Revelation, the text states "The one having an ear let him hear what the SPIRIT says to the churches. To the one overcoming, I will give him to eat of the tree of life..."

Is the following expression any surprise either?

BORN OF THE SPIRIT ... 24 x 24 x 4
Joh 3:8 o gegennhmenov ek pneumatov"
 
OF ... 24
ek'

Needless to say, the topic of life and eternal life is saturated with the 24 design.

Let us return to the 240 design and the reference in Revelation. Above we saw how the phrase "the tree of life which is" was 240, and just the word "tree" was 240 as well. Here is the complete phrase. Look at this next example. Where is this tree of life?

Here is an interesting fact about theomatics. The word "paradise" has a value of 871 in the above. This was necessary in order for God to make that phrase work out to 2400. But in another part of the Bible, the word "paradise" is spelled differently in Greek. When Jesus hung on the cross, and two thieves were hung with him, Jesus told the man on the right, "today shalt thou be with me in paradise."

Now let us return to the Hebrew of the Old Testament. In Revelation the tree of life was in the midst of the paradise of God in heaven. We saw where the words "midst of the paradise of God" was 2400. But in Genesis, God placed the tree of life in the midst of the garden of Eden.

The expressions "garden of Eden" and "garden of God," are saturated with the 24 design. Obviously Eden and paradise are talking about the same thing symbolically.

Now let us go to the second time the tree of life is mentioned in Revelation.

The tree of life was on either side of the river. It drew its source of life from the river.

John was shown this river in the previous verse. Look at this!

Now we would like to show you an awesome verse from the Old Testament, one that is extremely significant as it relates to the river and the tree of life. Look now at this from Psalms!

Here now, are two previous references from Revelation. The same value of 240 x 4 is present.

Here is one more perfect example of how theomatics fits concepts and numbers together. These are the words of Jesus.
We just have to show one more. Here Jesus was speaking to the Samaritan woman at the well.
This could go on and on. Let us jump to John chapter 7. Here is our last reference to the river.
The next reference to the tree of life in Revelation is later in verse 14 of chapter 22.
And what is the reward for having a right to the tree of life? Those that do will be allowed to "enter in through the gates into the city."
Here is the fourth and last reference to the tree of life in Revelation.
Now there is one other reference to the tree of life, but the word "life" does not appear. Let us return to verse 2 of chapter 22.
The words "the leaves of the tree for the healing of the nations," is 240 x 17. Here is the most distinct portion possible.
Now to conclude this little presentation, we shall show an example from a parable Jesus gave, that will put the icing on the cake to this entire design. While the following passage is not indicated to be speaking concerning the tree of life, certainly the application is appropriate. And the theomatics? Well, you can see it all right here for yourself.
