The premise was based on the old testament, and specifically the Torah.

Evidently, there is “a way” the books are supposed to be written with an exact copy of letters and words per line. This is so every copy will be exactly the same as the one before it.

This is why they can use the their algorithms to identify phrases that could be “recreated.”

Of course, you could do the same thing with any large volume, and they did it with Moby Dick. They came up with interesting results.

But, it is still bunk. Digital Tea Leaves at best.
