FOLLOWING is the latest update on the progress of a growing NYC WTC related Bible Code. ONE aspect of it already has odds of 1 in 4 million occuring by chance. Some aspects of it are entirely new to the phenomenon. The code's obvious relationship to the surface text (Ezek 7:2-8) is also quite sobering. This code has risen to one of the top 5 of all time in terms of statistical probabilities. This is a worthy site for interested people to signup for. Offered as fair use for educational discussion--Q -----------------
We¡¦d Like Your Opinion on It
A troubling new cluster of codes about the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center is taking shape in the early verses of Ezekiel 7, and we aren¡¦t quite sure what it implies. We¡¦d be very interested in your take on it. (You can e-mail us your [perhaps meant for MEMBERS only?] opinion from the link at the bottom of this page.)
The focal code is an unusually lengthy ELS of 28 letters with a very short skip of 15. [This means the statistical probabilities are VERY high against the likelihood of such occurring by chance.]
It reads, ¡§New York: They Accompany the Unfortunate Who Are Stricken In It. The Worshippers Are Gathering Around God.¡¨ Its length and its brevity of skip makes this one of the top five most significant Bible codes ever discovered.
Crossing or coming near these mysterious messages are many brief ELSs that connect with the events of September 11 and that we are working on possibly extending:
Some of these brief ELSs are:
Repent! God Has Responded to the Evil
An Unheard of Disaster
God Struck Evil
Every Evil
In the Morning
an exact crossing of ¡§September 11¡¨ and ¡§2001¡¨
U.S.
bin Laden
Airliner
Firemen
Afghan
Crying
Saddam
Iraq
Conspiracy
Devastation
Grief
Cruelty
Taliban
Terror
Horrible
Destroy
Death
Destruction
Butchery
[Q: Some of the shorter words above in Hebrew would not, in and of themselves be statistically significant. The whole collection of words fitting the situation AND the surface text is incredibly statistically significant. But common sense will tell you the same thing. CLEARLY SOMETHING IS GOING ON for the list of words above to be collected in a tight, small matrix as they are.]
There are some other extremely unusual features to this cluster. In text centered around the lengthy New York code there are far fewer occurrences of the World Trade Center acronym as a code, as if to represent its horrible absence from the Manhattan skyline. The glaring absence of WTC ELSs is so great that the odds it could happen by chance are less than 1 in 10,000.
In addition, there is an apparent representation of a mass graveyard in the same text. There are 13 visible crosses formed by pairs of appearances of ¡§The End¡¨ ELSs that look like this (the blank squares in the matrix represent other Hebrew letters in the text):
[SORRY, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET THE GRAPHIC INSERTED. IF YOU ARE A MEMBER OF THE SITE AND CAN, GREAT.--Q]
The spelling of ¡§The End¡¨ was taken directly from the literal text of Ezekiel 7:5-6: ¡§Disaster! An unheard-of disaster is coming. The end has come! The end has come!¡¨ While 3.5 such crosses would be expected to occur in this text by chance, the actual appearance of 13 such crosses is extremely unusual¡Xwith odds less than 1 in 4 million. The majority of these crosses appear in two stacks whose centers are only 7 letters apart, as if to represent the Twin Towers.
What makes these curiosities particularly disturbing is the message of the surface text above these very significant Bible code occurrences. Ezekiel 7:2-8 reads (in the New International Version):
Son of man, this is what the Sovereign Lord says to the land of Israel: The end! The end has come upon the four corners of the land.
The end is now upon you and I will unleash my anger against you. I will judge you according to your conduct and repay you for all your detestable practices.
I will not look on you with pity or spare you; I will surely repay you for your conduct and the detestable practices among you. Then you will know that I am the Lord.
This is what the Sovereign God says: Disaster! An unheard-of disaster is coming.
The end has come! The end has come! It has roused itself against you. It has come!
Doom has come upon youoyou who dwell in the land. The time has come, the day is near; there is panic, not joy, upon the mountains.
I am about to pour out my wrath on you and spend my anger against you; I will judge you according to your conduct and repay you for all your detestable practices.
This message came through the prophet Ezekiel for the nation of Israel prior to its being conquered by the Babylonian empire in 587 B.C. This was not the first time God allowed ruthless pagans to devastate Israel in times of its spiritual decline. Given that scholars believe there are many double prophecies in the Bible, or instances where a prophecy is fulfilled once and then fulfilled again in a totally different situation many years later, could it be that this prophecy has a modern application, too?
And is it possible to tie these codes and anomalies beneath it to the United States? Could the ¡§detestable practices¡¨ be our commonplace disregard for the Ten Commandments? Might this not include our worship of self, possessions and success rather than God? Our tolerance of violence in media as well as reality? Our ready acceptance of dishonesty [Q: AND INFANTICIDE?] and adultery in our culture?
Or is it simply a coincidence? Or could it be that our ¡§God Bless America¡¨ slogans are self-serving wishes for God to be on our side even though we habitually ignore God and the Ten Commandments in our daily lives?

unless I consider fierce bias to be a significant factor.
The very solid and reliable odds are simply to FAR over the line on the side of--well--of causality. . . I know of no other rational explanation.
Given the evidence, your position TAKES ENORMOUSLY MORE FAITH--EVEN BLIND FAITH--than believing in the codes.
There has been abortion, adultery, and every other imaginable sin , in every nation, in every era, and to claim otherwise is disingenuous. For GOD to " punish " people who did not have an abortion or commit adultery, as a supposed " wake up call " , for those who have done, is patently ridiulous and the antithesis of every religous tenent I know of.
Ezekial was a prophet. Prophets appeared in ancient Israel to warn those people, and those people ONLY ! They weren't some weird , early form of Nostrodamus, prognosticating future happenings in the VERY far off future.
tooooo FAR ove the line.
The Bible Codes is nothing similar at all to the prohibited fortune tellers of The Bible.
If you deny that Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Amos et al . . . not to mention John The Revelator have nothing prophetic to say about our era, I begin to wonder if you are reading the same Bible. . . . or whether your fair-mindedness has been put to bed, first.
God, outside of time, can do whatever He wants within our dimensions and outsied of them.
Translation: If we find codes matching the events, that proves that they really exist! And if we don't find codes matching the events, that REALLY proves that they exist!!!
What is their basis for that belief? If they do believe that, what basis do we have to call them scholars?
It's not my greatest strength nor my greatest weakness.
I've had more than one class in statistics.
It would appear from my perspective, that you have forgotten your class; have not examined the evidence or have biases so strong and extensive as to render such a class and evidence as useless to your mental considerations.

Yes -- 11 letters!!!
I think that there's something to this!!!
