Letters used as Numbers Create a Hidden Code? A method of
creating a hidden code is to replace the letters of each word in a message
with numbers, where A=1, B=2, C=3... etc., etc. Here is the standard Latin
alphabet: A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9,
J=10, K=20, L=30, M=40, N=50, O=60, P=70, Q=80, R=90, S=100, T=200, U=300,
V=400, W=500, X=600, Y=700, Z=800 This is what some claim the Author of the Bible
has actually done to create His hidden code to conceal His Plan for the
future. Googling the words "the Bible
Code" will produce 445,000 hits. "Theomatics" gives us 7,440
hits. Several writers have used various methods of proving that number codes
found in the Bible prove that God wrote the text, that it is from a
Supernatural Source, that it can be used to predict the future. See the topic
at: http://2012wiki.com/index.php?title=Bible_Code. 1. Bible
Code: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ISBN=0684849739/ontarioconsultanA/
A Google search for "Massorah Text" "Vowels" only
receives four hits. Searching both at the same time, that is, "the bible
code" "Massorah Text" gives no hits. This undoubtedly explains the lack oh knowledge about the text
on which "The Bible Code" is based, which includes only the Hebrew
consonants without the vowels. And yet claims are made that every letter of
every word has been miraculously written and preserved for us today. But now
we have computers to find the code and its hidden meaning, right? Perhaps the
computer is the father of the code.
OT10
Theological Supplement - WEMTC says, "The
Old Testament version we have today stems from the 500s-800s AD when the
Massoretes (from Masorah 'text, tradition') developed a vowel system for
Hebrew letters. Before this, Hebrew was written only with consonants and
often without gaps between words. This was fine if you knew what the text was
saying, but when the language was no longer a living one, it made reading
hard work.” "The Massoretes were worried that,
now Hebrew was no longer spoken, the meaning of the Bible would be lost.
However they themselves were not always sure what vowels to put in and what
the text had originally meant. The text was, it seems, considered so sacred
that they could not alter it, but they did write in the margins corrections
they thought should be made. The earliest copies we have of this Massoretic
text date from 1000 AD e.g. Leninggrad Codex, Aleppo Codex, Cairo
Genizah" (Quoted from: West
England Ministerial Trailing Course, Introduction to Biblical Studies:
Old Testament, Session 10 supplementary handout – OT Theology). 2. The following
