![]() The implication of three indicates “perfection”, “fullness” or “holiness” in the context of the concept of Trinitarian interpretation (for example in Mt 12:40). In Revelation 11, the two witnesses represent the church in its multiplicity of faithful who play the specific role of witnesses of the Messiah. To authenticate a testimony, two witnesses are needed (Deuteronomy 19:15 cf. Twos are associated with valid testimony. Jesus, by his singular sacrifice, made possible the forgiveness of sins, Mediator and Pastor (1 Timothy 2, 5 John 10, 16) in the life of every Christian. The number 1 also represents the unity between GOD the Father and his Son Jesus (John 10, 30). What is known as Shema (or Shema Yisrael), a quotation from verse four of Deuteronomy 6, 4 which is often used in Jewish prayer services, attests to this fact. It symbolizes in the Bible the unity and primacy, the unity of the Divinity. The number 1 is divisible only by itself and independent of any other number, but it dials them all. The number one represents the unity of the whole and the beginning, as for example in the first Book of Genesis. Numerical interpretations of events, words and names were contained in many ancient languages, religions and philosophies, but Greek and Oriental ideas on numerology do not seem to have permeated Jewish, Christian and Muslim beliefs. ![]() The first example that we find in the Holy Scriptures are the seven days of creation in Genesis in Chapter 1, which should be understood more as a ratio (6 days of creation/work and 1 day of rest) than as a number in itself. Numerologyīiblical numerology is the use of numbers for their symbolic value and for what they represent in biblical texts. In this article we will omit gematry, a much more complex subject, that research that investigates the patterns in some words and phrases in the original language that would reveal a hidden meaning behind the biblical text, offering further proof that GOD, the CREATOR has inspired every single word used in the Book thus announcing His will. While the structure of some is quite obvious, others require a deeper study of the Bible, discovering that each of these numbers has a particular symbolism. In this article, instead, a small explanation of the more generic and basic numerology will be given, without deducing that their understanding can reveal GOD’s work, but it helps to interpret more clearly some biblical passages. In the past these numbers have often been interpreted through suppositions and conjectures, but in most cases they are misleading and too complex.
