Interesting stuff but hard to say what it means. I still think G-d revealed what He intended to reveal in Hebrew and Greek without the need for tricky codes.

But... some form of superior intelligence (Twilight Zone music here...) may be able to see or understand the codes. Who knows?

All I know is that Jesus died for my sins and therefore, I will spend eternity in Heaven. I don't need a code for that!

And that is what I meant by “What Is”.

There are 70 faces to the Torah. He revealed the literal, but He revealed more, in other ways. The problem with Bible Codes is that retrospective analysis can be mere coincidence. If you see Ahmedinejad and Iran intersect, well, that’s because you already know of the relationship between those two words. If the word Iran didn’t exist you wouldn’t even notice the intersection or relevance.

Prospective analysis is much more relevant if you hit it, but much more difficult to find because you don’t know what to look for. So you throw in some numbers and names and intervals and see what intersects... then wait and see if it comes to pass. Maybe you knew the right names, numbers and intervals and what you see comes true. Or maybe you got them wrong, and find that nothing you thought would come true happens.

I think it isn’t meant for everyone. It is meant for great minds, perhaps only one or two people per generation, who study all 70 faces of the Torah and are gifted and they can see and feel their way through it. The aid of computers to find “codes” is only going to put out more random connections because the computer can analyze every word and every interval and every number. But if you stick to one set of numbers, intervals and names, put them down in advance and wait and see what happens. If its fate, its fate. On the other hand, maybe it’s more than just “predictive” but is actually a Divine aid. Maybe it will help you make a decision. Who knows, maybe the code is a form of determining fate rather than descriptive of fate - that is, you may be able to read the results of two decisions which could be made, one of which is better than the other.
