This is from Chabad.org

"Is Every Gematria Significant?
Gematria is simple arithmetic, and anyone with a calculator can come up with some creative gematrias. Does that mean that the two words or phrases are connected? The Rebbe writes that every gematria must be sourced to be significant. If a link exists, as recognized by an appropriate authority, the numerical value can add to this association. But the gematria alone does not create a connection.19

In short, gematria is a legitimate way to interpret Torah, but only when utilized correctly."


Is this true?

And if the insignificant connections aren't "coincidences," what are they?

Correct me of I'm wrong, but I believe גמטריא is the Hebrew word for gematria, I believe it has a numerical value of 263, and I believe the phrase טעות גדולה also has a numerical value of 263. Am I right? And would an English translation of that prase be "a big mistake"? As in gemtria is "a big mistake"?

Is Geometry a Big Mistake?

The -ia suffixed at the end of Gematr-ia is not only a Singular Plural (one constituting many, one of many, many of one), it is the Sephardic Latin for Yah, certainly your not suggesting that Gematria ‘The Measurement of Yah’ is a Big Mistake.

In Deuteronomy 4 we will find Alohym placing an emphasis on the Phonetical Enunciation of a Word over the Spelling of a Word, with that being the case, I agree, the letter G does not properly represent the J sound, to spell צאמטריה (lit. To Measure the Will, Testament, Command, etc., of Yah), as גאמטריא spelled with a ג Gimmel, lit., ‘a Prideful Measurement which pertains to Me’ notice how the word Gimmel is not enunciated Jimmel, Big Mistake!

Notice how reference to Yah and his word as it pertains to such things serves as a corner stone to my logic.

What is a singular plural? And if you wanted to say something about גמטריא, would you use a singular or plural verb? Also, do גמטריא and טעות גדולה both add up to 263 (I thought I made a mistake

An good example (of a singular plural) used throughout the Hebrew text would be the suffix ים it can simultaneously mean, ‘of him’ and ‘of them’.

The name אדם is a Singular Plural, it can simultaneously refer to Adam the (first) Man, and all of Mankind, likewise the term Son of Adam can simultaneously refer to Seth and all of Mankind.

What do you mean here?

You mean what do I construe from the emphasis which Yah placed on a vocal utterance over a written transcription?

Well for starters I believe their is a Precedence of one over the other.

Many names and words throughout the native text have alternate spellings, whereas it has been a tendency of men to standardize spelling, resulting in two standards, one from above and one from below.

The one from above likens utterance unto Light, which has various ways of achieving equivalents, I.e., 4+5=9, 6+3=9 and 2+7=9, likewise a three finger musical chord has two inversions.

The regimental thinking of men is structured to not recognize many things which Heaven would have us recognize, at the root of the problem is that the faithless actually believe that their lips are there own (ref,, psalms 12).

Well, גמטריא does equal 263 however גדולה equals 48 and טעות equals 485 which together totals 533, so the answer to your question is No, they do not both equal 263.

And, I can't find it there, but is the Gematria of President Trump's name ("Donald Trump") 424 or 425?
Spelling is not necessarily fixed to a single formula of variables, our own personal characteristic traits and attributes punctuate the name which we live up to.

Personally I spell the name bestowed upon me a few different ways, שתוהן (Steven), the Atbash of which is באפצט Baptist.

Then there’s שתיון (Steven) which can be read as St. John, in this particular spelling the names of the letters ש and ת are spelled out and overlapping one another, so one is beholding both 2 characters and 5 characters simultaneously, and when translated from the Celtic/Chaldean tongue to Hebrew the ש and ת are switched around, rendering תשיון which phonetically equates to ציון Zion.

Then of course there’s שתיבן (Steven) lit., ‘Seth is the Son’.

These all bear a pertinence to one another and accentuate aspects of the life I live.
