COMPUTER ANALYSIS OF THE ORDER
|
|
AND
|
|
NUMBER OF BOOKS OF THE BIBLE
|
|
The original sequence of the books of the Bible differ
|
|
somewhat from the sequence that is presently found in the
|
|
English Bible. The original* text had the following order:
|
|
1. Genesis 12.Isa 23.Zep 34.Esth 45.James
|
|
2. Exodus 13.Jer 24.Hag 35.Dan 46.I Peter
|
|
3. Lev 14.Ezek 25.Zech 36.Ezra 47.II Peter
|
|
4. Numbers 15.Hosea 26.Mal 37.Nehem 48.I John
|
|
5. Deut 16.Joel 27.Psa 38.I Chr 49.II John
|
|
6. Joshua 17.Amos 28.Prov 39.II Chr 50.III John
|
|
7. Judges 18.Obad 29.Job 40.Matt 51.Jude
|
|
8. I Sam 19.Jonah 30.Song 41.Mark 52.Romans
|
|
9. II Sam 20.Micah 31.Ruth 42.John 53.I Cor
|
|
56.Eph 62.I Tim
|
|
57.Phile 63.II Tim
|
|
58.Col 64.Titus
|
|
59.I Thes 65.Phil
|
|
60.II Ths 66.Revelation
|
|
61.Hebrews
|
|
* Original means the Oldest or most original that were
|
|
known to the world, at this time.
|
|
Some of the books assign themselves, either totally or in
|
|
part to a particular scribe's name, while others are
|
|
anonymous. The books which reveal (in part or totally) the
|
|
scribe's identity are :
|
|
Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy ascribe
|
|
themselves to Moses and are ascribed to Moses in other
|
|
books of the Bible. Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and the 12
|
|
minor Prophets ascribe themselves to the scribes whose name
|
|
the book bears. Psalms is ascribed to David. Proverbs and
|
|
Song of Solomon ascribe themselves to Solomon and
|
|
Ecclesiastes ascribes itself only to the "son of David"
|
|
which most believe to be Solomon. Daniel, Ezra and Nehemiah
|
|
ascribe themselves to these respective scribes. James, 1
|
|
and 2 Peter and Jude bear the names of their respective
|
|
scribe. The Epistles of Paul ascribe themselves, with the
|
|
exception of Hebrews, to Paul. Revelation ascribes itself
|
|
to John.
|
|
The anonymous books, therefore, are : Genesis, Joshua,
|
|
Judges, 1 and 2 Samuel, 1 and 2 Kings, Job, Ruth,
|
|
Lamentations, Esther, 1 and 2 Chronicles, Matthew, Mark,
|
|
Luke, John, Acts, 2 and 3 John, and Hebrews.
|
|
Moses has 4, Solomon 3, Peter 2, Paul 13. The other
|
|
identified scribes have one book each.
|
|
The number 66 is 6 -11's (Feature 1). The anonymous
|
|
books are 22 or 2-11's. The non-anonymous books are 44 or
|
|
4-11's (Feature 2). Of these 44, 22 (or 2-11's) belong to
|
|
writers of more than one book and 22 (again 2-11's) belong
|
|
to writers of only one book (Feature 3). The sum of the 66
|
|
numbers totals 2,211 or 201-11's. We can divide this number
|
|
in this manner: the 22 books of the writers of more than
|
|
one book have 946 (or 86-11's), while the other 44 have
|
|
1,265 (or 115-11's) (Feature 4).
|
|
Of the 66 books, 21 are Epistles. Their numbers are
|
|
(James to Philemon or 45 to 65). The sum 2,21 for the 66
|
|
books can be divided between Epistles and Non-Epistles. The
|
|
Epistles have 1,155 (or 105-11's) and the non-epistles have
|
|
1,056 (or 96-11's) (Feature 5).
|
|
Moses, David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Hosea, Joel and Daniel
|
|
are expressly quoted in the New Testament. The number of
|
|
their respective books are 2,3,4,5,12,13,15,16,27,35. The
|
|
total sum of these books is (Feature 6) 132 (or 12-11's).
|
|
The Numeric Values of the Bible Writer's names are:
|
|
Moses 345 Isaiah 401 Jeremiah 271
|
|
Hosea 381 Joel 47 Amos 176
|
|
Jonah 71 Micah 75 Nahum 104
|
|
Zephaniah 235 Zechariah 242 Malachi 101
|
|
Solomon 375 Daniel 95 Ezra 278
|
|
James 833 Haggai 21 Peter 755
|
|
Paul 781 John 781 John 1069
|
|
Ezekiel 156 Obadiah 91 Habbakuk 216
|
|
David 14 Nehemiah 113 Jude 685
|
|
|
|
The total sum of these is 7,931 - which is 11 X 7 X
|
|
103. Just to show you that can also be expressed as 721-
|
|
11's, while the sum of the factors 7, 11, 103 is 121 or 11-
|
|
11's (Features 7 and 8).
|
|
There may be some that may claim that this could be
|
|
accidental or by design. The the number of books in the
|
|
Bible should be a multiple of 11 could possibly be
|
|
accidental; However, since only every 11th number is a
|
|
multiple of 11, then THE CHANCH OF ACCIDENT IS 1 IN 11!
|
|
That this number can be divided between anonymous and
|
|
non anonymous books in such manner as to be multiples of 11
|
|
could also be accident; However, THE CHANCH IS 1 IN 11
|
|
TIMES 11 or ONE CHANCH IN 121!
|
|
That this number can be divided between the non
|
|
anonymous by 11's among the authors of only one book and
|
|
those of more than one book could also be accidental;
|
|
However, the chanch for it being accident is ONE IN 11
|
|
TIMES 11 TIMES 11 or ONE CHANCH IN 1,331.
|
|
If we carry out the progressions through the eight
|
|
occurances proven above, we concede that each one could be
|
|
accidental; However, the chanch for them all being so
|
|
becomes ONE CHANCH IN 11 TO THE EIGTH POWER or ONE IN
|
|
214,358,881!!!!
|
|
Using our pencil and a lot more paper, we find:
|
|
The sum of the numeric values of the 26 authors named
|
|
as Biblical writers which was shown above as 7931 is a
|
|
multiple of seven (Feature 9) as well as eleven . The sums
|
|
of the numeric values of the 26 writers (7,931) is a
|
|
multiple of 11. Of this number the 21 writers of the Old
|
|
testament (3-7's) have 3,808 or 544-7's and the new
|
|
Testament writers have (Feature 10) 4,123 or 589-7's. of
|
|
the 3,808 belonging to the Old Testament, 2,933 or 419-7's
|
|
belong to the writers of the Law and the Prophets, from
|
|
Moses to Malachi, and 1,190 or 170-7's belong to the
|
|
writers of the hagiographa, from David to Nehemiah (Feature
|
|
11). Seven of the 21 Old Testament writers (3-7's) are
|
|
expressly named in the New Testament; These are Moses,
|
|
David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, Hosea, Joel. Their numeric
|
|
value is 1,554 or 222-7's (Features 12 & 13). The numeric
|
|
value of Moses who heads the list and John who closes it,
|
|
345 and 1069 equal 1414 or 202-7's (Feature 14)
|
|
The Bible begins with the Hebrew word "beginning" and
|
|
ends with the Greek word "saint". The Hebrew word occurs in
|
|
the following books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers,
|
|
Deuteronomy, 1 Samuel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea,
|
|
Amos, Micah, Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Ecclesiastes, Daniel,
|
|
Nehemiah and 2 Chronicles. The Greek word occurs in
|
|
Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 1 John,
|
|
Jude, Romans, 1 Corinthians, 2 Corinthians, Ephesians,
|
|
Philemon and Revelation. These books total 42 or 6-7's.
|
|
take the number of these books in the order of their
|
|
respective place and the sum is 1575 or 225-7's.
|
|
The possibility of these eight features of SEVEN and the
|
|
eight features of ELEVEN occuring together is ONE IN
|
|
5,764,801 TIMES 214,358,881 or ONE IN ONE THOUSAND MILLION
|
|
MILLIONS !!
|
|
It would be IMPOSSIBLE, therefore to claim accident or
|
|
conspiracy in the phenomena indicated. The above clearly
|
|
demonstrates the design of:
|
|
1. THE NUMBER AND ORDER OF BOOKS AS RECEIVED. * feature 1*
|
|
2. THE PROPORTION BETWEEN ANONYMOUS AND NON-ANONYMOUS BOOKS
|
|
*2*
|
|
3. THE PROPORTION BETWEEN BOOKS WRITTEN BY AN AUTHOR OF A
|
|
SINGLE BOOK AND THOSE WRITTEN BY AUTHORS OF MORE THAN
|
|
ONE BOOK. *3 & 4*
|
|
4. THE PROPORTION BETWEEN EPISTLE AND NON EPISTLE BOOKS. *5*
|
|
5. THE NUMBER OF O.T. WRITERS QUOTED IN THE N.T. *6*
|
|
The Bible was written by some thirty different writers
|
|
from many different walks of life over a period of sixteen
|
|
hundred years between its first and last writers. If we
|
|
assume that it was exclusively written by HUMAN hands, we
|
|
cannot account for the mathmatic phenomena demonstrated. If
|
|
we assume that a SUPERIOR MATHMATICAL MIND (The Mathmatical
|
|
Author of Nature) has planned these phenomena, provides an
|
|
immediate and rational explanation of these phenomena and
|
|
others found in the Bible.
|
|
It is not the desire of this report to provide
|
|
anything other than an insight into the immeasurable
|
|
intelligence that produced the Bible. The same intelligence
|
|
that produced the limitless stretches of space, that
|
|
produced the smallest one cell creature, the same one that
|
|
created it ALL, is the only source that could have produced
|
|
the Bible as it presently stands.
