I try to make an example

in the Torah (Bible) all the letters, the words, the sentences and so on

which have identical values they are connected among them

this circumstance doesn't happen in a normal text

Right. I'm confused. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

If you mean that words that can be mapped to numbers as being a numerical language, then you'll find that computers are programmed in exactly this way. Programming language keywords(made of words encoded numerically, e.g. using ASCII) map down to processor instructions (opcodes).

Haven't people in this thread already demonstrated that lots of text (when mapped to numbers) has the properties (or very similar properties) to those you describe?

I'm still unlcear as to what prime numbers have to do with your claims.

I spoke of the prime numbers because they are a good example to show that the computers will always have some evident computational limits

in fact if I make the example of the prime numbers I can speak of RSA and of (GIMPS- Distributed Computing project) and so on

I will try to show another example
with this example I would like to show that the numerical biblical language is completely different from the numerical language of the computer

I thank you for your patience

Love in Hebrew is: hbha (pronounced ahavah).
the sum of the numerical values of the four letters that make up the word Love equals 13;
as follows:
a 1 +
h 5 +
b 2 +
h 5 =
13
One in Hebrew is written dxa (pronounced echad).
the sum of the numerical values of the three letters that make up the word One is 13,
as follows:
a 1 +
x 8 +
d 4 =
13
This very simple calculation of the numerical values of the words One and Love help us to perceive the power of this numerical language.
In fact, despite being two different words, they have the same numerical value.
Why is this so?
Because these two different words are intimately united.
In fact, only True Love produces True Union: the One.
It is possible to demonstrate through many other examples that such numerical coincidences are not there by pure chance, and that the Biblical words with the same numerical value are linked to each other, even though, sometimes their meanings are totally different

C'mon now, guys. Is there anyone here--other than Pmarra--who buys into any of this?

Surely he must be pulling our collective legs.

This is known as a collision (in the parlance of computers). Collisions of this sort are EXTREMELY common, which is why when programmers write algorithms that rely on collisions (for example, cryptographic hashing functions) they have to use more than just the sum of the ASCII characters (or any other character-number mapping).

Why is this? If we take any number, there will be many ways to add up smaller numbers to reach the target number. If I sat down with a piece of paper I could probably even work out what this is.

If I took the entire dictionary, looked at the numeric values of the words and saw there were MANY collisions - would you be prepared to reject your hypothesis? If I were to demonstrate that such things were due to chance - would you be prepared to reject your hypothesis?

Both things are relativley straight forward to do. The second would be done by generating a random set of strings (of variable length), calculating their numeric values and then doing a statistical confidence test on them (something like a t-test (don't think thats the right one in this instance)).

If this were done, would you change your claims? I guess you'd have to amend the text in your book too.

Eddy seems to, however these guys remain unconvinced.

Well, I don't know...... Using the Hebrew-like character map, 'Pmarra' comes out as 67.

This is the same total as the words 'satanic', 'lying', 'clown', ......

Coincidence? Well maybe.....

Until you realize that 'reddish' is also a 67-point word!!!!!!!!!!!!

Surely this is rarer than an odd perfect number!!!!!

The science cannot be denied!!!

It's even better!!!!

In my last mail I incidentally used the Latin map (A=1, ..., Z=26).

The conclusions are still valid

BUT with the Hebrew map 'Pmarra' (292) becomes 'scholar' (292) !!!!!

Add the magic number 1000 which yields 1292 which is 'prayerful'.

Do we need more?

The evidences cannot be denied.

If you look at the scientific method used in an objective way the conclusion is inescapable.
