English

The ancient Israelites and Greeks didn't have special symbols to represent numbers. They used the letters of the alphabet to write numbers.

Numbers that are not in the tabels bellow were writen through the sum, for example, the number 345 could be writen in Greek as τ (tal), μ (mi), ε (épslon) (300+40+5), τμε = 345.


Hebrew: Numeric values of the letters

  1 = Aleph       א

Greek: Numeric values of the letters

 - Α α = 1
 - Β β = 2
 - Γ γ = 3
 - Δ δ = 4
 - Ε ε = 5
 - Ϝ ϝ ς = 6 (Ϝ ϝ = vav, letter that have become obsolete, ς = sigma final)
 - Ζ ζ = 7
 - Η η = 8
 - Θ θ = 9
 - Ι ι = 10
 - Κ κ = 20
 - Λ λ = 30
 - Μ μ = 40
 - Ν ν = 50
 - Ξ ξ = 60
 - Ο ο = 70
 - Π π = 80
 - Ϙ ϙ = 90 (koph, letter that have become obsolete)
 - Ρ ρ = 100
 - Σ σ = 200
 - Τ τ = 300
 - Υ υ = 400
 - Φ φ = 500
 - Χ χ = 600
 - Ψ ψ = 700
 - Ω ω = 800
 - Ϡ ϡ = 900 (sampi, letter that have become obsolete)

obs. The value of the words was computed making the sigma final (ς) with the same value of the ordinary sigma (Σ,σ), ie, 200. 
This procedure is justified because:
1- Writing by hand it is easy to draw the lowercase vav (ϝ) with the shape of the sigma final (ς) and  that is, almost for sure, the reason why the sigma final became the symbol for 6 in the Greek. But in the beginning it wasn't that way, ie, the 6 was represented by the vav (Ϝ,ϝ).
2- Almost all ancient manuscripts are in uppercase and there is no uppercase sigma final.
3 - In the Hebrew, in order to appear the features of Genesis 1:1, it is not made difference between normal and final characters.

Cubes
Words:
1st.) בראשית
2nd.) ברא
3rd.) אלהים
4th.) את
5th.) השמים
6th.) ואת
7th.) הארץ

1) The product of the letters in Gen 1:1 is:
23,887,872,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = 288^3 * 10^27
thus the cubic ratio of this number is: 288 * 10^9
that is, the product of the letters of Gen 1:1 is a cube of side 288 billions.
( 288 = 2*144 = 2 * 12 * 12 )

2) The letters of the first word, of the middle word (4th. word) and of the last one 
multiplied gives:
17,280,000,000,000,000 = 1728 * 10^13
1728 = 12^3
(ignoring the powers of 10, it is a cube)

3) The product of the letters of the remaind ones (2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th) is: 
1,382,400,000,000,000,000 = 13824 * 10^14
13824 = 24^3
(ignoring the powers of 10, it is a cube)

4) The product of the letters of the first 5 words is:
110,592,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = 110592 * 10^21
110592 = 48^3

5) The product of the letters of the 2 last words is:
216,000,000 = 216 * 10^6
216 = 6^3
obs. This feature number 5 is a necessary consequence of the features 1 and 4, of course. But I will keep it here for a while. 

6) In Revelations 21, the New Jerusalem is described as having the shape of a cube of side 12,000 stadia.
The word Jerusalem, in Greek  (ιερουσαλημ) has a numeric value of  864.
864 = 288+288+288
(288 = 2*12*12)

7) 288 = 2 * 3 * 6 * 8
2368 = ιησους χριστος = ιησου χριστου
(Jesus Christ, in Greek, in the nominative and genitive cases. )

obs. It was used the iota subscript in αρχηι. This word really has an iota subscript and I think this is the correct way to calculate the numerical value of that word.

The constant "α" by the concatenation of Genesis 1:1 and John 1:1

The fine structure constant α is dimensionless, ie, it is the same number in any unit system.
\alpha = \frac{e^2}{(4 \pi \varepsilon_0)\hbar c} = \frac{e^2 c \mu_0}{2 h} = \frac{k_\mathrm{e} e^2}{\hbar c},
  •  is the fundamental charge (of the electron and of the proton).
  • ħ = h/2π  is the reduced Planck's constant.
  • c  is the light speed in the vacuum .
  • ε is the electric permissivity in the vacuum.
    • or µ is the magnetic permeability in the vacuum.
    • or k is the Coulomb's constant.
If its value was just a little different, the atom wouldn't be possible, it wouldn't hold toguether.

Today there is no formula for alpha and its value can only be known by precise mesurements. Up to 2006 the accepted value was:

α = 0.007297352569

Gênesis 1:1
296 + 407 + 395 + 401 + 86 + 203 + 913
 = 2701

João 1:1
55+719+58+70+373+31+70+373+58+450+420+134+31+ 284+58+70+373 =
 3627


Concatenating 2701 and 3627 in on single number and powering to the square: 

(2701 * 10^4 + 3627) ²

27013627^2 = 729736043695129 
0.00729736043695129 x 10^(17)

Putting the scale asside (powers of 10) this value differs from the todays known value of alpha by less than 0.0001%.

d = | 0.007297352569 - 0.00729736043695129 | / 0.007297352569
d = 0,000001078

d% = 100*0,000001078
d% = 0,0001078%

Frequency of factor 37 well above the expected by chance:

Genesis 1:1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

the earth  and   the heavens            God    created    in the beginning
  296     407     395      401    86     203          913

Words:
1st.) בראשית
2nd.) ברא
3rd.) אלהים
4th.) את
5th.) השמים
6th.) ואת
7th.) הארץ

There is a total of 127 arrangements of 7 words (A 7,7 +A 7,6 +A 7,5 +A 7,4 +A 7,3 +A 7,2 +A 7,1)*.
Of these, 23 has numeric value multiple of 37 (18.1%). Well above the expected by chance.
Here some examples:

* A n,p = n!/(n-p)!

1)all:
2701 = 37 * 73

2) 2nd,4th,5th,6th and 7th words:
ברא   את      השמים   ואת    הארץ
the earth and  the heavens         created
 296     407      395     401   203
1702 = 2 * 23 *37

3) 3rd, 5th, 6th and 7th words:
אלהים  השמים    ואת     הארץ
the earth  and  the heavens God    
  296     407     395      86    
1184 = 2*2*2*2*2*37

4) 1st,2nd,3rd,4th and 5th words:
בראשית       ברא    אלהים  את       השמים  
the heavens            God    created  in the beginning
   395      401    86      203       913
1998 = 2*3*3*3*37

5) 6th and 7th words:
ואת  הארץ
and the earth    
  296   407
703 = 19*37

The diagram bellow shows the number of occurrences of the numbers 2 to 50 as factors of words and arrangements of the words of Genesis 1:1.
It would be expected that the factor 37 would appear 3 times but it appears 23 times.



( The diagram above belongs to Vernon Jenkins
it is here withing the terms of "fair use" of the copyright law of the U.S.A.)

Gen 1:2b
ורוח אלהים מרחפת על פני המים
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

ורוח אלהים מרחפת   על  פני   המים
  95       140 100     728          86      220

95 + 140 + 100 + 728 + 86 + 220 = 1369
1369=37*37

Who discovered these facts?
As far as I know theses dicoveries started in 1890 with Ivan Panin, the geometrical structures in Genesis 1:1 were discovered recently by Vernon Jenkins and the number "e" in John 1:1 by Peter Bluer. I don't know who discovered "pi" in Genesis 1:1.
