LORDS PRAYER

The Greek ordinal puzzle of the Lord's Prayer from the Textus Receptus.

The Lord's Prayer (being a fair reading of the two accounts in the text) adds up to the 37th octagonal number (4033) in the Greek Koine ordinal. The octagonal numbers (8-shaped) and the star numbers are intimately related and discussed in depth here in Star Math(s). They are basically, mathematically the same thing, or permutations upon each other, a fact new to science.

Octagonal numbers, like star numbers come in a wide variety of configurations, both 2D and 3D. Below is the 'Hourglass' configuration, for which all octagonal numbers conform. Like the star numbers which are two triangles at perfect interpenetration, the octagonal numbers are those same triangles, now at equilibrium.

The number 4033 is more than just a random assortment of cardinal numbers. In its display is a virtuoso of octagonal mathematics, being that 40 & 33 are the both the 1st and 2nd octagonal numbers which produce the star number 73 (40 + 33 = 73), a number central to the biblical mathematics thesis. Employing the comma-code we find the number 37 (73's mirror opposite) by adding 4 + 033 = 37.

4 + 033 = 37

40 + 33 = 73

This number and configuration is highlighted in the decimal expansion of pi:

The specific geometry of this iterated cube-frame

is that of the odd octagonal numbers (A014641)

What is this configuration and what does it mean?

This geometry and its mathematics are newly discovered (4/17/2020) and so it is open to interpretation. Metaphorically it appears to be a unilateral staircase. It could be many things with many meanings. Its geometry is suggesting a cubic continuum of the number one at its center, contained at its maximum by the cube of thirty-seven.

The same watermark on the 2D rendition can be found in the 3D version on any of the six sides, which will 'like an accordion' compress into the square of 37.

The name Jesus Christ integrates seamlessly with the geometry in a number of ways. See the Nesting-frames of Jesus Christ here.

The number 7770 (the 35th tetrahedron) also manifests as the corollary extracted pyramids. This specific number also figures in the extended mathematics of Genesis 1:1, see In the Beginning Jesus.

Being that the 37th octagon (4033) can act as superstructure for the 37th cube, the pyramidal remainders are solidly based in the number 37 and can perform a number of fantastic geometries.

The 2701 x 2 cubes (74 x 73 = 5402) are based upon the earlier discovered Cruciform Fractal, a 3D iteration of a cross.

The 37 & 73 cubes here are truly 3D in that they contain a 7 point interior cross.

This humble little cross is 3 cubes wide, tall and broad.

Altogether they make 7, hence the three-seven cross.

Being that this number (4033) is best understood (mathematically) as the 37th octagonal number, its 3D configuration also separates into the Genesis 1:1 — 2701, number in a number of ways.

The number 666 (what I call the 'Shadow of God')

appears as always in the periphery.

The Lord's Prayer is an unquestioned pillar of the Christian faith. From a theological perspective no better prayer could be uttered. Yet this sacrosanct foundation of the Christian religion is also at the center of an intellectual firestorm of controversy for containing, what appears to be a 'mistake.' There are two accounts in the Gospels of the prayer (Mat. 6:13 & Luke 11:2) but in the second Luke account the final portion of the prayer is missing.

Is this a splinter in the eye of God?

Or is it something else?

The manuscripts that make up the historical body of evidence for the New Testament are very much of a different source material than those that make up the Old Testament. In both instances we have an overwhelming amount of evidence, so much so, that it has been (accurately) said that if you believe there was a Roman emperor named Julius Caesar, then you must more so believe, that there was a historical Jesus of Nazareth.

The Old Testament manuscripts were codified by a group of scribes known to history as the Masoretes, who were so meticulous in transcribing the Word, that so much as the slightest 'typo' was to be noted and included in the transmission of the text — so sacred a task was their duty. The New Testaments manuscripts have an even greater abundance of source material (more by far than any other historical text) but with that abundance comes a different challenge.

Not all the manuscripts are exactly the same.

These are what are called 'scribal errors,' minor mistakes in the laborious transcribing of the written word. Today we call them typos. For the most part these are all trivial, like grammar or spelling errors, which are easily corrected and accounted for. Occasionally the variations are more significant and not easily explained away. One of the most famous examples happens to be in the Lord's Prayer, strangely enough (though I dare not say coincidentally). The version in Luke is missing a phrase from the Matthew version.

Is this variation a mistake?

An omission?

Or a riddle?

Not actually the Lord's Prayer — learn your Greek.

The answer, I believe, is a riddle — a riddle solved by the mathematics of the biblical variety.

The numbers seen in the mathematics of the Bible show one deliberate pattern above all else, what I have dubbed, but many others have attested to, as the Three-Seven Code. From the first verse of the Bible to its last chapter, again and again we see a purposeful (and yes) supernatural attenuation to the numerals Three and Seven and its associated mathematics. The Map of the Three-Seven Code illustrates a portion of the tremendous amount of evidence throughout the many books of the Bible, of a deliberate and supernaturally inspired pattern in the numbers of the text, with one exception... till now.

So what was missing?

The Lord's Prayer

One would think that if there was a mathematical code in the Bible, hitting all the important passages, that the Lord's Prayer should certainly be among them. But the online community has scoured the Bible for decades for such a pattern to no avail. If it was there, it certainly would have turned up by now. Unless it was hidden — hidden in a riddle, hidden in what many considered to be a mistake.

The work of biblical mathematics has shown, through various authors, that many of the texts, do in fact contain elaborate geometric riddles. The superscription of the cross is a perfect example, where the entire inscription can only be gleaned from all four of the gospel accounts:

This riddling often appears as a puzzle of the text itself. The Lord's Prayer is no different, but is perhaps the finest example of such a textual puzzle. This puzzle however is not very complex. In fact, is it the most straightforward and obvious solution to the prayer puzzle conceivable. The prayer in Luke is missing a portion that the prayer in Matthew contains.

So... add that missing portion to the Luke version. Voilà!

Not that hard really. When we do so, suddenly all the math works out, like we've seen in so many other passages of the Bible.

Octagonal numbers being based in the number eight (octo = 8) are highly organized, unlike odd numbered geometries, for the reason that eight is a multiple of two. One of the quirks of this type of number is that it can be represented as a series nesting octagons AND as a hybrid configuration of a square with a triangle protruding from each side, which I believe is the reason they are also known (perhaps confusingly) as 'star-numbers'.

It is the latter shape that conforms to many of the known geometries of biblical mathematics. And it appears that the author, i.e. the Holy Spirit, was not only aware of this octagonal dalliance, but designed the text to accord to its mathematics.

This figure coordinates with the 37th dodecahedron (a 3D twelve-sided figure) 55 x 4033 = 221,815 = 37th dodecahedron — see Revelation 1:1.

The riddle of the Lord's Prayer is solved by including the missing portion that is found in the gospel of Matthew — word for word, letter for letter. When we add up the sum of all the Greek letters we get 4033, the 37th octagon.

The highlighted portion of the text produces the 37th square and makes a rebus puzzle of the prepositional phrase 'In heaven.'

The whole edifice of this pattern is, of course, dependent on the inclusion of the prologue, the first few words in Luke 11:2 prior to the prayer proper. But far from detracting from the composition, it is perhaps its finest facet. Its sum is 373, that primary identity of biblical mathematics found in the Greek word for the 'Word' or Logos.

And this prologue and prayer somehow knows this:

The Greek and its ordinal equivalent in each of the four verses can be seen below:

Note also the sum of Amen in the ordinal being 33, exactly 1/3 its standard-99 and the 33 in the number 4033.

Many of the features of the ordinal prayer can be represented by figurative mathematics. The most famous 'Our Father' equals 114 (19 x 6) and can be seen in the blue below.

The 81 words of the passage produce a natural square (9 x 9) which is a natural puzzle in and of itself.

Other examples of the Scriptures with the octagonal pattern can be seen in the longest of the Psalms.

This English configuration from Exodus describing the Breastplate of the High Priest is a very serious and seriously complex octagonal puzzle.

Psalm 149 when displayed in the right light, illustrates an obvious design, instructed by the parameters of the 3/7 Fractal, where now all 276 Hebrew letters produce the 73rd octagon, whose geometry is best portrayed by triangles and squares:

73rd Octagon = 15,841

The four triangles come to 10,512 (12^2 x 73) and are the sum of the Messianic Prophecies from Jeremiah 31:31-32.

The Lord's Prayer KJV

Below you will see The Lord's Prayer KJV. Employing only the letters without spaces you can see that the prayer from Matthew 6:9-13 has precisely 256 letters, which as a power of two is already a potent mathematical entity.

As 256 is also 16^2, the prayer should be tiled as seen below.

The Lord's Prayer = 3003 (o)

3,003 = 77th Triangle (T77)

This triangle (T77) can appropriately be called the Christ Triangle or the triangle of the trinity of Christ, since, 77 = Christ.

C = 3

H = 8

R = 18

I = 9

S = 19

T = 20

= 77

The ordinal sum of these English letters is 3003. This is another important number in theistic mathematics because it is the sum of the first 8 words of the Bible.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth and the earth...

בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ והארץ

302 296 407 395 401 86 203 913

= 3003

The number 3003 is the 77th triangle.
