I can't do it... while I find them intriguing, and wouldn't put it past God to conceal something like that (there is a verse that could be used to support that notion) the truth is... we can make any book say anything. I believe Shakespeare was once used to test out the code and things were found within his writings. So, I remain opened minded but I too need convincing, and it better be good!
Agreed... Obama's first name has a meaning... just as anyone elses does. It is believed that 25% of the male children born in Judea in the first century were named Yeshua. Anyway... this "barack" thing has been going around since the primaries before the 08' elections. Nothing new... I remember when Reagan was elected, Ronald (6) Wilson (6) Reagan (6).... he was it.... 36 years ago.
We need to judge by fruit, not by anything else, it just causes trouble!
Sorry, given the variations in the spelling and words (400,000 variants and growing in then NT manuscripts alone) bible code couldn't possibly work.
Thank you all. One of the links in this article is what I was going to post. The nature of the Hebrew language is such that you can find a code in anything. Works for any consonantal language with a short root stem, hence for the Koran also. In other words,t he codes are just a big coincidence. A little math proves you can find almost any headline in any paper at any point of history this way. There are simply enough letters int he Torah, and the rearrangements in Hebrew are enough, that more words than humans ever want to use can be made of any writings in them. So if you look hard enough you can find anything you like in there.
