192 13 The author s signature - YOU CAN T WRITE THIS BOOK! Yeah, that s right, said Dean. The Bible is just a compilation of men s allegories or myths. Um, okay. I love people like Dean not just for their probable sincerity, but because I love watching the wonder in their eyes when they suddenly catch onto what you re about to see. Believe me, this is going to be an adventure. You re about to discover that no one person nor group of persons in the world could have created the Bible, even had they wanted to. May I impress the need for very careful concentration. We shall be exploring a unique phenomenon. And it lies deep below the surface of the Intelligence Report. No, we are not talking about Michael Drosnin s Bible code. But it is a discovery that has staggered the cleverest brains in the world. Are you ready?
193 Number design in nature For starters, you may be aware of a numeric scheme that runs through nature, right? Of course, you reply, everything operates according to mathematical laws. Good. Then were you also aware that the human body seems to be stamped with the number SEVEN? Just think about it. Your body consists of 7 main parts head, neck, trunk and four limbs 7 in all. Did you know that the development of the human embryo is in exact periods of 7s, such as 28 days (4 x 7)? Ask your doctor to explain. You ll be amazed at the accuracy of this law. Is this arrangement of 7s merely accidental? Are you familiar with the fact that this same number or its multiples marks the period of gestation and incubation of many birds and animals? The common hen sits on its eggs 21 days (3 x 7); the pigeon, having laid its eggs, sits on them for 14 days (2 x 7). The duck takes 28 days to hatch its eggs (4 x 7); the goose 35 days (5 x 7); the swan 42 days (6 x 7); hundreds of varieties of small birds have been checked at 14 days (2 x 7); larger birds, such as the emperor penguin, ostrich or emu 49, 56 or 63 days (7 x 7 8 x 7 or 9 x 7). If the hen leaves her eggs on the 20 th day, there ll be no chicks. The seal calves on the rocks and suckles its young for 14 days (2 x 7). The ova of salmon are hatched in 140 days (20 x 7). The gestation period of the mouse is 21 days (3 x 7); the rabbit 28 days (4 x 7); the cat 56 days (8 x 7); the dog 63 days (9 x 7); the lion 14 x 7; the sheep 21 x 7; the cow 40 x 7; the elephant 90 x 7. And so on. The ova of the glow worm occupy 42 days (6 x 7),
194 and of the mole cricket 28 days in hatching (4 x 7). The period of the bee in the larva is 7 days. In moths it is 42 days (6 x 7). Come to think of it, in chemistry, music and art, we find the same number 7 playing a key role. Both sound and light are subject to the law of 7. How has it come about, for example, that the human ear responds to 7 distinct intervals in a scale of one octave? In the rainbow are 7 colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Might some call such persistence of sevens intentional design? The watermark But, more to the point, did you know that this very same 7s design has been found embedded both on and beneath the surface of the Bible? I wouldn t blame you for being a little skeptical. After all, we re breaking new ground here. But you re about to discover this for yourself. It seems that both the Bible and nature bear similar identification marks just as surely as various papers from the same mill bear beneath their surface the watermark of that mill alone. The truth is that quite independently of the biblical text is a watermark design woven through the surface message a pattern of seven, if you please! If you didn t know, the Tanakh (also known as the Old Testament of the Bible) was composed in Hebrew, a language in which every letter of the alphabet also doubles as a number. Thus every letter, word and sentence has a numeric value, the sum total of each letter value.
195 Like Latin? someone asks, where V equals 5; X is also 10; C is 100, and so on? That s right. Except that in Latin only some letters are numbers. In Hebrew (and also in Greek) it is every letter. So when you read a word or sentence, you are simultaneously looking at a string of numbers. And that brings us to a discovery made by a Russian scientist, Ivan Panin. Dr Ivan Panin was one of the ten top mathematicians of his day in the United States. He taught in universities and knew up to 14 languages. He loved playing with numbers. The sevens sub-surface pattern Anyway, one day in 1882, that mathematical genius found himself experimenting. Knowing Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, he began reading the Bible in its original languages. He experimented by replacing the letters in the Bible with their corresponding numbers. Suddenly his excitement began to well up. His trained mind was seeing a mathematical pattern! He kept experimenting. And after a few hours he was totally amazed. The passages he had studied revealed unmistakable evidence of an elaborate numerical pattern. This was far beyond random chance, nor human ability to construct. On the surface runs the message in everyday words, as in any other book. But the substructure of individual letters spells out a complex mathematical code an interlocking pattern of sevens. A juggling game that defies the world s cleverest men Take, as an example, the very first sentence in the Bible: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
196 Actually, there are dimensions to this creation account which go well beyond the surface story. A whole mass of vital scientific statements is sealed by the numeric design exactly fitted within the statement itself. But to cover this aspect is not within the scope of the present work. (See my book, The Weapon the Globalists Fear, chapter 21, section: 21 st century science in Genesis.) What I would like you to notice is this amazing sevens design: This sentence contains exactly seven Hebrew words. These comprise 28 letters (4 x 7). The three nouns (God, heaven, earth) have a total numeric value of exactly 777. The first three Hebrew words (containing the subject) have exactly 14 (2 x 7) letters. The fourth and fifth words have exactly 7 letters. The fifth and sixth words have 7 letters. The Hebrew words for the two objects the heavens and the earth each have exactly 7 letters. The numeric value of the first, middle, and last letters is 133 (19 x 7). The numeric value of the first and last letters of all 7 words is 1,393 (199 x 7).
197 The value of the first and last letters of the sentence is 497 (71 x 7). So the value of the first and last letters between is 896 (128 x 7). The last letters of the first and last words have a numeric value of 490 (70 x 7). In fact, there are over 30 different numeric features of seven in the first simple sentence of the Bible. These seven Hebrew words were so chosen and arranged that the number seven is literally woven into them in every conceivable way. These 7s are so deeply concealed that special searching, investigating and counting is necessary to find them. They are not seen by ordinary reading. Another type of sevens feature So much for the first sentence in the Bible. What about the first book as a whole? Yes, the entire book of Genesis is signatured in every conceivable way with the number 7. So it should not surprise us to discover that it also comprises exactly 78,064 Hebrew letters. Just look what makes up this number: * 77700 = 100 x 777 * + 343 = 7 x 7 x 7 * + 21 = 7 + 7 + 7 Total: 78064 Would you just look at that once more carefully. Can you imagine a sevens design more perfect? But just get this, will you? Every paragraph, passage and book in the Bible is constructed in the same astonishing way.
198 Amazingly, there is not a single paragraph out of the thousands in the Bible that is not constructed on exactly the same plan. The Old Testament, in Hebrew, is like a single skilfully designed artefact nothing less than the product of a supremely intelligent and purposeful mind. So: Whose Mind? As we shall discover in later chapters, this is a deliberate structuring that is far beyond human possibility to invent. You see the problem now, don t you? We re no longer talking about an ordinary piece of literature. Impossible to replicate Scholars who have set out to accomplish a similar thing admit that after struggling for days their efforts were in vain without reducing the passage to a meaningless jumble. Here you have something that is scientifically testable. You can try it yourself. But I assure you that repeated scientific, mathematic demonstrations prove that humans cannot replicate it. If you want actionable proof in real life, here it is. In no other books on earth This interlocking numeric phenomena is found in no other literature. Mind you, there have been sincere efforts to find such numerics in the Greek classics (Homer s Iliad and others), the Septuagint, the Apocrypha, the Koran and other works, but they have proven unsuccessful. So what kind of book have we here? Is this from God Himself, as it claims? The most reasonable conclusion from the evidence is that its claims are true. That is, you can accept Bible testimony to be as reliable as any evidence outside the Bible. No more so!
199 Accurately transmitted There is good historical evidence that the original text of the Tanakh (Old Testament) was carefully preserved until the time of Jesus. (See my book The Weapon the Globalists Fear, chapters 19 and 20.)... 1. Ancient literary aids, obsolete names and cuneiform usages are still discernable in the books, which clearly reveal the purity of the text and the care with which it has been handed down to us, step by step, from the very first tablet. 2. Another check on the integrity of the Scripture is in the Israelites extreme reverence for the sacred writings an obsessive reverence for every letter and word. For this reason, scribes made copies of the Tanakh manuscripts in a way which is quite unique. They preserved them as no other manuscript in history has been preserved. Why? Because these documents played an important role in Israelite culture and government. You see, religion was their ruling passion. They believed that the Bible was not of human origin, but was directly inspired by God Himself. Therefore every letter and word had to be regarded with the highest reverence. And this could allow no changes. Modern critics are so blissfully ignorant of this ancient Hebrew mind-set which is so different from their own. Josephus testifies: We have given practical proof of our reverence for our own Scriptures. For, although such long ages have now passed, no one has ventured either to add, or to remove, or to alter a syllable. (Flavius Josephus, Flavius Josephus Against Apion Josephus, Complete Works, pp.179,180) From 100 to 500 AD, in transcribing the scrolls, the Talmudists allowed no word or letter, not even a yod, to be written from memory, without the scribe looking at the codex before him. Between every consonant, new section, and book, a precisely-
200 stipulated space must intervene. (Samuel Davidson, Hebrew Text of the Old Testament. 2nd edition. London: Samuel Bagster and Sons, p. 89) They were followed by the Masoretes (AD 500-900), who counted the number of times each letter of the alphabet occurs in each book. They numbered the verses, words and letters of every book. They calculated the middle word and middle letter of each book. of the entire Hebrew Bible. (F.F. Bruce, The Books and the Parchments. Rev. ed. Westwood: Fleming H. Revell Co., 1963, p. 117) In 1947, the Dead Sea Scrolls, including a complete Hebrew manuscript copy of the biblical book of Isaiah, were discovered. Dated around 125 BC, it was found to be in precise agreement with the text of 1,000 years later. Yes, you CAN be certain that the Hebrew Bible text has been transmitted accurately. (For more detailed information on this topic, see The Weapon the Globalists Fear, Chapter 20.) And that does raise this interesting question: Might it then just hold the key to events shaping up right now on our planet? Exposing the forbidden secret Just suppose you discovered that persons mistaken for outer space aliens were actually the brains behind the New World Order and that they had sinister plans for you and your family? In the next few chapters, after identifying these gangsters beyond reasonable doubt, we shall progressively reveal the forbidden information that they don t want you to know and you will see clearly why they want to keep it secret from you. WARNING: This may be hazardous to your preconceived ideas. Are you ready for this?
