Readers -

having noticed this I pass it on to you.

The timing of the Gog Magog war is being discussed here.

Ezekiel 38:2
"Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him," ...

Gog, Meshech, and Tubal all are sons of Japheth, the son of Noah.

total gematria vaue of that verse =

2838

as shown here:

here

http://www.biblewheel.com/gr/gr_database.asp?Gem_Num=2838

are all verses with the same total.

note the first verse

1 Samuel 16:14
"But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him."

Japheth's Strong's number is 3315h

go here:

for a list of all verses with 3315 as the gematria total

note third verse

1 Samuel 14:20
"And Saul and all the people that were with him assembled themselves, and they came to the battle: and, behold, every man's sword was against his fellow, and there was a very great discomfiture"

That's two hits tied to Japheth.

I've lost the material now, but a couple of weeks ago I did some work on the AC numbers and noticed again the same pattern as I have seen many many times...

... that verses with the total gematria of a certain number showed pairs of verses that involved Saul of the OT, first king of Israel. this happened twice.

the first certain number had two verses dealing with Saul.

the second certain number also had two verses dealing with Saul.

I do apologize for not having those verses or numbers. It just got lost in back pain.

It is also difficult for me to conjecture what it means except that Saul as a type of a antagonist towards David, the great King of Israel, who would succeed Saul, might be a type of the AC who makes war against the saints (those who follow the Son of David, the Lord Jesus) cursing also those that live in Heaven, etc

do notice this -

Saul's Strong's hebrew number = 7586

Bible verse number 7586 =

1 Samuel 9:2
"Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD."

this is a direct quotation from Saul. Saul is speaking in this passage. check the chapter for yourself.

that's a match, or a "hit" as I refer to it.

That shows God's design in action.

Jesus is Lord.
