THE S/O THEOREM

By Leo Tavares


The S/O Theorem (short for "Standard/Ordinal") is a self-authenticating principle that is built into the ancient alphanumeric numerations of the Biblical Hebrew/Greek text. The Standard method follows the ancient numeration system that was in use for both Biblical Hebrew and Biblical Greek (known to be in use for well over 2,000 years). The Ordinal method follows the natural order of integers applied to the logical order of the Hebrew/Greek alphabets (i.e. the most simple and natural alphanumeric translation of letters into numbers). This self-authenticating code is further established through the feature of repeatedly self-referencing identification. That is, the Standard repeatedly corroborates the Ordinal and the Ordinal repeatedly corroborates the Standard (forming a logical interconnectedness between the two key systems).
