"Re Ted Porter's "Barack" = "666" yesterday"


 
John and Doves,
 
Thanks Ted for your post yesterday - it was most enlightening.

Your analysis that 234 =(6 x 6 x 6) + (6 + 6 + 6) was a revelation.
 
I also had a go with my calculator and found that  234 =  6 x (13+13+13) or  6 x 39.
 
So this means that John's number for 'Barak' (234) has two very significant strings
of figures in its factors - namely your two groupings of 3 6's and my one 6 and 3 13's.
 
In both instances the figures of 6 and 13 are emphasised by being repeated threefold
as if to bring our undivided attention to this fact.
 
13 of course standing for sin and rebellion.
 
Keep tuned,
 
Phil.
