BARAK – BLESSING or BLASPHEME?

Revelation 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the NAME of blasphemy.

Six times, the Hebrew word BARAK (Strong’s 1288) is interpreted, not as its usual intent ‘blessing’, but as either ‘curse’ or ‘blaspheme’.  Occurring six times, the standard Hebrew value of BARAK (Strong’s 1288) which is 6 x 222 = 1332 OR 666+666.  This is yet another value of 666 attributable to Mr. Hussein Obama AND the name of blasphemy. 

 

1^st Kings 21:10

And set ³⁴²⁷ two ⁸¹⁴⁷ men ⁵⁸², sons ¹¹²¹ of Belial ¹¹⁰⁰, before him, to bear witness ⁵⁷⁴⁹ against him, saying ⁵⁵⁹ , Thou didst blaspheme ¹²⁸⁸ God ⁴³⁰ and the king ⁴⁴²⁸. And [then] carry him out ³³¹⁸ , and stone ⁵⁶¹⁹ him, that he may die ⁴¹⁹¹ .

 

Job 2:9

Then said ⁵⁵⁹ his wife ⁸⁰² unto him, Dost thou still retain ²³⁸⁸ thine integrity ⁸⁵³⁸? curse ¹²⁸⁸ God ⁴³⁰, and die ⁴¹⁹¹ .
