How to get 666 from www?

The Hebrew and Greek alphabet does not have separate characters or alphabets for numbers and letters. Letters are also used as numbers. So each letter is a numerical value.

The Hebrew equivalent of our “w” is the letter “vav” or “waw”. The numerical value of vav is 6. So the English “www” transliterated into Hebrew is “vav vav vav”, which numerically is 666.

The Mark of the Beast is not, as many believe, 666

As recorded by St John the 'mark' looks like the Greek letters Chi, Xi and Sigma-Tau (a ligature of Sigma and Tau).

More usefully, here is an image of the so-called “666” from the Codex Vaticanus of Revelation which dates to around 350 AD - 200 to 300 years after John wrote Revelation. These marks are often - and erroneously - interpreted as '666' when they are in fact a simple image.

Let's look at that again:

Is there anything that looks like that? What could that be? I'm not sure, but it looks awfully familiar ...

That design is common in Islam. It is a pair of crossed swords next to the Bismallah - the Name of Allah.

And what about the Mark of the Beast being worn on arm and head? Was St John talking of headbands and armbands?

It's not very clear, but you can just make out the X-shaped swords and the middle symbol on this piece of material:

And if we pull out a bit, we get the whole thing - this is an image of a armband belonging to Hamas:

I got these images from this PDF. It's well written and worth reading in its entirety. The Bismallah - the Name of Allah - worn on head and arm by fanatical jihadists the world over - is the Mark of the Beast.

Hope this is helpful
