John and Doves,

 

Thanks for such an in depth presentation on this subject.

 

In regard to both Hebrew and Greek gematria you may find it beneficial to add what has been published before by myself which is mostly taken from the book, Seal of God, by FC Payne.

 

The number 37.

 

In the book FC Payne says 37 stands for "The Word of God".

 

The number 37 unifies the product when multiplied by three or a multiple of three. So 37 x 3 = 111, 37 x 6 = 222 and 37 x 9 = 333 etc.

 

In John 1:1 we have the word "Logos" which equals 373.

 

In Genesis 1:1, "In the beginning God" = 999 or 3 x 9 x 37.

 

 

Theotes                        592      37x8x2      Very God

Jesus                            888      37x8x3      Very Man

Christ                           1480    37x8x5      Our Passover

Son of Man                  2960    37x8x10    Son of Man

Total                            5,920   37x8x4x5   The Climax

   

This last number 5,920 is also the exact total of the phrase in Matthew 25:6, ‘Behold THE BRIDEGROOM cometh, go ye out to meet HIM’.

 

How can this possibly be coincidence? How can it? Is it not the mind of God at work?

   

So we can see from the chart above that ‘CHRIST’ is exactly the addition of God and man, and, thus becomes our Passover. 1 Corinthians 5:7 says, ‘For even Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us.’ Yes, you.

God alone could not be our Passover, for blood had to be shed.

Mere man could not provide the efficacious sacrifice.

But Godhead, 592, clothed upon by flesh and blood, 888, could and did, provide the perfect sacrifice, 1480.

And then note that the title ‘SON OF MAN’ is the exact total of the three previous titles.

Why did Christ continually use this title?

I believe that in that title, as the numerics show, is revealed GOD, MAN, and REDEMPTION complete.

Then what a marvellous climax, 5920, the sum total of it all.

Redemption is complete; we are invited to be ready, the Bride is called out; the Bridegroom, Christ, comes for His Church, the Bride, and we go out to meet Him.
