THE SECRET OF THE PSALMS

The Fractal of the Cross

The reciprocals of the powers of seven, i.e. 1/7, 1/49, 1/343, etc. display an infinite correspondence with the Three-Seven Code employing the six-fold shape of the cross the perfect symbolic depiction of a Christian cross. After the third iteration sums and repeating periods will always fit on the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ (294) using mathematical notation.

THE GREAT CROSS OF THE PSALMS

The book of Psalms is far and away the largest book in the Bible. Being that it is a song book and a book of praise, it is often overlooked as not being theologically important. However, a careful study of the book, shows numerous prophecies recorded within.

In fact, the most quoted verse in the Bible comes from the 110th Psalm. The 22nd Psalm is nothing less than a prophesy of the cross. The 37th & 73rd Psalms are thematic twins. We even have evidence that the entire book, all 150 psalms, may be an enormous acrostic puzzle, solved by gematria and the number of the psalm (see Psalm 86 & Psalms 1 + 30 + 5 + 10 + 40 = God/ Elohim 86).

But the largest prophecy of the work may just be the entirety of the book itself. The Psalms may just be the grandest of puzzles hidden in plain sight, in all of the Bible.

The 150 Psalms makes a perfect cross using basic geometry.

What are we to make of this?

Is the book of Psalms, really, secretly and after all this time, in fact a giant geometric cross?

As with the rest of biblical mathematics, we must look for a multitude of evidence. Skeptics are ever quick to dismiss anomalies. The compelling power of the mathematics of the biblical text, is that when we see an anomaly, it is typically not anomalous but rather the tip of the iceberg, of a repeating pattern.

The Biblewheel misses the BIG PICTURE

The sad story (intellectually so) of Richard McGough of the biblewheel.com need not be addressed here, but so many of his numerical identities created a foundation for much of modern biblical gematria. Many of his entries are spot on, some... not so much. Once in a while he made a mistake, and occasionally he missed the boat altogether. Read his entry for the number 294 and try and guess which identity is missing.

We will see later that this six-fold cruciform pattern (294) that conforms to the name the Lord Jesus Christ, will play a crucial part in the mathematics that display an infinite amount of evidence to suggest this shape is not incidental.

The cross of the Psalms is a perfect key to the cross of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Not only is are Psalms cruciform, their specific 150 psalm cross fits both mathematically and theologically perfectly within the cross of the name of the Lord Jesus Christ-294. Indeed, doubly so, for 6 x 49 makes a cross of 294, Lord Jesus Christ and all the six perimeters of each component of the cross comes to 144, the Hebrew ordinal rendition of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This number 294 plays a miraculous role in the remarkable story of one of the most important biblical manuscripts and the oldest continuous Jewish manuscript, none other than the Aleppo Codex.

The Aleppo Codex was a famous medieval manuscript consulted by the famous Jewish scholar Maimonides and was considered by all the authorities of the day to be authentic. Kept in Aleppo, it fell victim to the 1947 anti-Jewish riots, where it was severely damaged.

Miraculously, the number of pages that remained of the text were 294, the sum of the name the Lord Jesus Christ, in Greek ordinal.

Was the number of surviving pages of the Aleppo Codex, a sign from God, who self-identifies as Jesus?

This sort of configuration is call the net of a cube (a cube has six sides). This type of arrangement is an important aspect in the mathematics of topology.

The cross based on the square of seven is theologically important in many ways. For instance, the Jewish and once-upon-a-time American celebration of the Jubilee or the 50th year commemoration, is actually a celebration of a 7x7 year cycle, the 50th being the subsequent year (7 x 7 = 49 > 50).

In the 49th Psalm we see another cross based on the powers of 5, five being the average of 3 & 7, (3 + 7 = 10/ 2 = 5).

Archaeologically speaking, we can't say for certain what the cross of the Roman's precisely looked like, or if they all looked the same. One might suspect, that in many cases, they were thrown together with whatever parts were available.

In any event, the basic nature of a cross is composed of a vertical and horizontal beam, perpendicularly attached. What we can say for certain, is that the Christian symbol of the cross, that has come to us through history, is the cross that most resembles the cross of the Psalms.

David's 8th Psalm (Jesus-888) displays another telling proof of the hidden 'Cross' configuration in the Psalms. Psalm 8 fits our formula neatly for the Psalms in that of 294, the sum of the Lord Jesus Christ in Greek ordinal.

A common refrain seen in the Psalms, especially the psalms of David, is the call upon the name of the Lord. Psalm 8 both begins and ends with this refrain:

"O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth!"

In the context, of this 294-cross configuration made upon the name the Lord Jesus Christ, it would appear that David's plea was ultimately a divine reference to the coming incarnation of the Lord Jesus Christ.

An extra biblical configuration that conforms to this shape and number can be found in the 1662 Anglican Book of Prayer.

A common criticism (sadly) from Bible-believing Christians, is an attack on any sort of evidence presented of God's sovereignty that lies outside of the narrow purview of their particular cannon, i.e. their preferred translation of the Bible. The criticism goes something like this:

"Well that's not in the Bible, so it can't be from God."

Might we not consider this critique for a moment.... For when we do, we soon realize that the statement is an attempt to confine and restrain the power of an Almighty God. It is basically saying that God is incapable of influencing any other text, outside of the Bible.

That God, is a god not worth believing in.

It is perfectly reasonable, and altogether likely that an all-powerful being such as God, through his Holy Spirit, would be ever watchful over any important text related to His Word, being that of a prayerbook or historically and theologically important texts such as the creeds.

THE INFINITE RECIPROCAL CROSS

Of the infinite variety of infinitely repeating 294 decimal repeating reciprocals, one stands out more than others, in that it is unique. In the vast cosmic ocean of the infinities of mathematics, those rare entities that can call themselves unique stand in the rarest of companies, as there are only twenty-three unique primes below 10100.

This 294 repeating decimal, not only reproduces the shape of the cross conforming to the name the Lord Jesus Christ, but it also sums to 1323, a potent number indeed (3 times the truth in Hebrew-441), just as so many other 294 digit reciprocals do.

Continue on below for more 1323 correlations.

Should we look at the prime number itself which produces this 294 decimal reciprocal, we find a very large number. Yet this large prime number offers up more proof that the all-powerful God of the universe self identifies as the Lord Jesus Christ. Here the 84 digit prime number is the second part of this gargantuan mathematical puzzle, whose solution is as simple as:

I AM that I AM the LORD JESUS CHRIST

Beside a plentitude of 3/7 correlations, the digital sum of this large prime comes to 418, the ordinal sum of this Messianic Prophecy found in the first book of the Bible.

Genesis 22:18

And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

because thou hast obeyed my voice.

= 418

Another more basic cross configuration that displays this same pattern, is a 24 period prime, whose reciprocal forever repeats in a cross of 24 decimals:

1/99,990,001 = 000,000,010,000,999,999,989,999

This all too appropriate arrangement sums to an on-the-nose 108, an ordinal sum of the Greek word for 'Cross'.

These sort of perfections are NOT trivial bits of Bible lore. They are, in concert with the entire symphony of biblical mathematics, an endless virtuosity of divine engineering.

A skeptic might ask: 'Why would God bother to arrange such trinkets?'

The question must be unasked. For it reveals the hideous ignorance of the questioner on the nature of an omniscient being. Such an infinitely infinite, endlessly endless being perceives all things at once and feels no disparagement at a word like trinket.

These cross configurations found in the reciprocals are far from minor and are indeed more than a handful of infinity.

A well known mathematical feat of Genesis 1:1, is its astounding ability to reflect the 3/7 fractal, in particular with mathematical symmetry.

Genesis 1:1 = 37 x 73 = 2701

2701 + 1072 = 3773

At first glance, this simple arithmetic may seem trivial. It is in fact supremely rare. Seeing that this number is coordinated with the protoverse, we have every right to run it through its paces, by applying the same reciprocal equation.

Here we see an infinitely triune reference to our name and number 294. Shall we see it again? Note again that this reciprocal is infinitely repeating.

The red cross is the mysterious outlier.

These multiples of 7^3 are a bit of a mathematical mystery. In calculating the reciprocal sum of this 294 digit repeating decimal, it seemed at first that it was just a mathematical by-product of the reciprocation.

Wrong was I.

Not only are the digits of each reciprocal varied in the individual digits that produce it, t

he 9th multiple (1/3087) does not have a digital sum of 1323. Every other multiple reciprocal of 7^3, that I looked at, had a 1323 digital sum.

In other words, this repeated digital summation is against long odds. Why there is a seeming predominance towards this number (1323) is currently unknown.

Though this basic cross configuration is unrecognized by mathematical authorities, that does not mean it lacks authority. All figurative shapes, at one time were unrecognized. Beyond the topology of a net, the cross configuration has little mathematical utility. However, in the context of the Christian Bible, it has nothing but utility and fundamental theological importance.

Examining this shape further we find that it houses a great symphony of biblical correlations, beginning with the first verse.

Please note, this is a wholly different configuration that the 'Unique Prime Period' 24-Cross above.

With the inverse of the sum of Genesis 1:1, we can calculate its reciprocal. Here it is a repeating decimal, whose period is twenty-four digits. Twenty-four is the second cross configuration and so, naturally enough, by the inversion of the first verse, we find the 'End-Word' of all prayers, Amen-99, the truth.

This cross of 24, is highly integrated with the infinite series of all cross configurations. Looking at the terminal repeat cycle, the last digit of every cross configuration, we find a cross based on the number 24, found in the first verse.

This cross of 24 plays an integral part in the most important name in the New Testament, in that of Jesus-888.

The Hebrew name for Jesus, is Joshua, whose book has 24 chapters.

Here we see a crossing over, or a bridge if you will between two separate fractals, that of the Star Fractal and this, the Cross Fractal. Appropriately it is found in the name above all names--Jesus.

The Star Configuration and the 3/7 Fractal is hidden in plain sight all throughout the Psalms, in a place that most Bible and commentaries overlook--the title. David wrote more of the Psalms than any other author. Many of these begin with a very simple sign off of 'A Psalm of David.'

Should we look to the 24th Psalm, we find a most similar pattern.

Psalm 24 = 333 Letters

THE PSALMS OF GOD

Another very similar configuration, also features in the Psalms, in that of a square cross. The Hebrew language has been called the 'Square Language' on account of the squarish nature of its letters.

In the 86th Psalm (86 is Hebrew for God, Elohim = 86) and the whole of the psalm is 576 letters, making it a perfect square: 576 = 24^2. In this sort of configuration, a square cross is the more perfect application of the geometry. Here as in other places we find an abundance of clues to the identity of Jesus Christ as the God of the Hebrews.

To read more about this configuration, click HERE

Although a square cross is certainly preferred for a square formation, the number 576 is cruciform in another more repetitive way, the way of the fractal.

The cross fractal of Psalm 86.

The 24 Elders of the book of Revelation is a very poorly understood passage. This is perhaps because we have such a very dim view of the ancients and how they lived and what they thought. This obscurity is perfectly captured by gematria itself, which to the modern is but footnote to a footnote and rarely given more than a thought. But to the ancients, gematria was more than common knowledge; it was an everyday practice. Anyone who could read and do arithmetic was well versed in gematria.

An example of a modern day parallel might be crossword puzzles or suduku.

The early Christians believed the number 24 to represent Jesus 888. It's not hard to see why....

8 + 8 + 8 = 24

Some historians and biblical commentators think that the 24 Elders cited in the book of Revelation are a cryptic reference to the 24 letters of the Greek alphabet. This belief is almost totally lost on the modern person. However, in the ancient world the letters of an alphabet were mystical if not magical entities. These simple symbols came together to produce words, speech and ultimately the very medium of meaning that allowed thought to exist. Hebrew kabbalists still hold onto a similar belief that the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet were the primordial elements that produced the universe.

To the ancient then, the 24 elders were an obvious reference to the letters of the Greek alphabet among other references, such as perhaps the hours of the day. The first verse to mention the 24 elders is Revelation 4:4 and its sum is a fractal of the Cross.

By using the index numbers of the Psalms like they real numbers, we find that sometimes they produce surprising puzzles of the Psalms themselves.

THE BAPTISM OF THE LORD

This cross configuration, creates a fractal of Mat. 3:16, the primary account of the Baptism of the Lord Jesus Christ.

This sum (15,876) is the product of the 3rd Cross (54) and the 7th Cross (294), making it a primary example of the 3/7 Fractal.

This verse is a perfect square (126 x 126) which produces a multitude of connections to the 3/7 Fractal. The mathematical metaphor here is that of the heaven's opening up, via the square function, that fundamental mathematical process that first produces geometric space.

THE FRACTAL OF THE CROSS

If anything, the mathematics of the Bible reflect the reiterative pattern of a fractal, a repeating pattern of self similarity. We have seen this exhaustively with the 3/7 Fractal and surprisingly with the Star-Fractal. It should be no surprise then that the cross configuration would have a fractal of its own.

The Spirit-576 and the number of letters in Psalm 86 makes an ideal example of this Cross Fractal.

Another is found in the Hebrew ordinal for 'Lord Jesus Christ' or 144, see 144,000 thousand of Revelation and the dimensions of the New Jerusalem.

Here is three-stage fractal we see the name the Lord Jesus Christ is the basis of the cross of Jerusalem, which is the basis of the Messianic Prophecy in Isaiah 61:1.

We can employ this 144-Lord Jesus Christ in another way, that is an all too telling cross formation. Here, by multiplying the Hebrew and the Greek names, we discover a rebus puzzle in the form of the cross hidden in the depths of mathematics for millennia.

Quite simply, this formation is saying, with a loud voice God is the Lord Jesus Christ.

Try then to imagine each square of the cross like this:

This name, this most holy name, configures with the Cross Fractal, in many important ways.

Here both reflective numbers, 26 & 62 are in the ordinal denomination.

Looking exclusively at the name Jesus Christ, we find a very similar configuration.

Should we deconstruct the name further, by pairing off the name into its basic components, we find a factorial of 3! & 7! and a cross equation that unites the names of Jesus in the Hebrew and the Greek.

Below we see another cross configuration with a plenitude of 3/7 correlations, all in the cruciform shape so symbolically figurative of the salvation of man.

It is the cross which is the symbolic crux of God's salvation.

THE CROSS OF TIME

All of these cross-correlations should come as no surprise to the Christian, who daily calls upon the name of the Lord, the name of His Son, Jesus Christ. The cross itself, as a symbol, is of indelible historical importance. Whether you believe that the Emperor Constantine had a vision of the cross or not at the battle of the Milvian Bridge, it was by the cross that he did conquer.

And history itself turned upon the simplest of symbols.

As cited above, every 40 minutes (a holy 40 minutes) a cross is produced by the number of seconds ticked away (2400). The same cross that the Elohim Psalms produce: the 1st, 30th, 5th, 10th & 40th = God.

By examining the minutes of the day exclusively we find a similar fractalling pattern, once again based on the 'Holy 40' so often mentioned in the biblical context and seen here as the difference between the squares of 3 and 7.

By looking at the number of seconds in a day and minutes in a week, we find a 'Cross of Christ' twice-over. In the graphic below, you can see how the standard and ordinal numerations coordinate together in marvelous ways.

By employing the Golden Ratio to the 24 hours of the day we can produce an equation that simultaneously represents the universality of the Golden Ratio and the given name of the Lord, in His Incarnation:

Golden Ratio of the Hour = 37 Minutes

Hours in a Day = 24

37 x 24 = 888 = Jesus

THE MAGIC OF THE 150 PSALMS

Using this configuration of the 150 Psalms, we can tile them in two ways, horizontally and vertically. By doing so we find a clue to the 3/7 fractal in the central psalm of either configuration.

A standard horizontal lay out makes the 63rd Psalm central.

Arranging the Psalms vertically we find another 3/7 key.

63 = 3 x 7 x 3

Genesis 1:1 = 37 x 73

The sum of the entire 73rd Psalm is significant as it is a multiple of 73 at low odds. Here again we have a reference to God's Glory, to which there is no greater symbol than that of the cross.

73rd Psalm = 45,187

73 x 619 = 45,187

619 = God’s Glory (δοξα Θεου)

619 = The Glory of the God of Israel (ישראל אלהי כבוד) Eze. 43:2

When we add these two central Psalms together, we find a connection both to the whole of the Psalms (based on the square of 5) and the 3/7 fractal.

Psalm 63 = 23,563

Psalm 73 = 45,187

23,563 + 45,187 = 68,750

68,750/25 = 2750

Here is another way of looking at this number 2750, so central to the cross configuration of the Psalms.

37 37 37 37 37

37 37 37 37 37

37 37 37 37 37

37 37 37 37 37

37 37 37 37 37

+

73 73 73 73 73

73 73 73 73 73

73 73 73 73 73

73 73 73 73 73

73 73 73 73 73

= 2750

That is to say, it is the sum of (37 x 5^2) + (73 x 5^2), thus connecting both 37&73 and the 25 base geometry of the Psalms.

The central 73 cross is a sign and indicator to look deeper. By doing so, we find that this configuration of the largest book of the Bible hides many secrets.

By looking at the crosses within the crosses we see more of the 3/7 fractal.

David wrote more Psalms than any other author, as seen in this graphic.

The final verse of the final psalm has a secret geometry, that appears to be a lingering ode to the name David, the most prolific author of the psalms:

Psalm 150:6

Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

= 1016

This number is actually the surface of the cube of David, where David is 14 in Hebrew and his cube is 2744, minus in its interior 12^3 = 1016.

This also happens to be the 8th stella octangula, an overly complicated way of saying a three dimensional hexagram or Star of David, the first real such star is 14 the sum of the name David in Hebrew.

The icons of Habakkuk and Micah

INTENTIONAL GEMATRIA?

Much of theistic mathematics concerns mystical coincidence, but if, as I argue, that gematria was so well known in the ancient world that it needed no reference, certainly then there would be some intentional wordplay, like we see with Eliezer-318. In two books of the minor prophets, Habakkuk and Micah we find something that is perhaps more than a coincidence.

Micah 3:10 = 1014

Habakkuk 2:12 = 1014

Micah 3:10

They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.

Habakkuk 2:12

Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!

It is the historical proximity of these two authors that makes this connection a compelling case for an intentional gematric correlation. Micah and Habakkuk lived and wrote within 100 years of one another. They lived on either side of the great Assyrian invasion and wrote on either side of the invasions and punishments of Israel.

Due to this historical and topical proximity, it is not too much of a stretch to argue that Habakkuk was not only aware of the writings of Micah, but was making an intentional numerical reference to the verse of Micah 3:10.

Looking carefully at the Hebrew grammatical construction we find a basic similarity. Where Micah uses the proper nouns of Zion and Jerusalem, Habakkuk writes in a more general sense, speaking of towns and cities. In either case the same basic sentence construction remains the same.

Micah 3:10

בנה ציון בדמים וירושלם בעולה

Habakkuk 2:12

הוי בנה עיר בדמים וכונן קריה בעולה

To Build (Banah) בנה

In Blood (Ba'dameem) בדמים

By Iniquity (Ba'evelah) בעולה

This then might satisfy the modern skeptical materialist, who ever argues that there is a non-supernatural explanation. Although I find myself generally opposed to this position, when it comes to Holy Writ, it does not mean that occasionally it can't get it right.

Micah 3:10 = 1014

Habakkuk 2:12 = 1014

Is it relevant that these two verses produce a figurative cross formation? Surely, neither Prophet could have known of the coming significance of the cross, making this a purely Divine 'coincidence.'

But what does it mean?

It is up for interpretation, but I see a prescient anticipation of the judgement of Jerusalem, the city that kills its own prophets, and would ultimately, by the iniquity of its leaders, crucify the Son of God.

OTHER IMPORTANT CROSSES

By running the gamut of well known and established numbers that correspond to the biblical text in important ways, we discover the shape of the cross.

The number 54, was recognized years ago as being an important element in the 3/7 fractal, being it is the 37th composite number (numbers with more than one prime factor or non-prime numbers).

For example, using the Hebrew Jesus the Messiah-754:

(37th + 73rd semi-prime) + (37th composite + 73rd prime) = Jesus the Messiah

(115 + 218) + (54 + 367) = 754

The number 54 then, is the 3rd natural cross (6,24,54...).

The ordinal 'Covenant' reveals the Covenant of the Cross.

Another number that keeps cropping up in the study of biblical mathematics is that of 216 or 6 x 6 x 6. We see this number at the periphery of two very important verses: Genesis 1:1 and Exodus 20:1, the beginning of the 10 Commandments.

This sixth cube is important in many ways. One that is almost entirely unknown to the Christian is that of the Shemhamphoresh or the 72 Divided Name of God. In historical Judaism there are a number of these holy names of God, but the Shemhamphoresh is the grand-daddy of them all.

Composed of three verses from the climax of the story of the Exodus, in Exodus 14:19-21, these three verse repeat with 72 letters each. Rabbinic scholars considered this a divine coincidence and revered this name more than any other of the holy names.

There are several very specific ways in which this complex of letters was supposed to be laid-out, the following is NOT one of them, though it may be the most telling.

Another name and number that deserves recognition is that of The Messiah in Greek, primarily for the way it interacts with the Messiah in Hebrew.

The Messiah (Hebrew) = 363

The Messiah (Greek) = 726

363 + 363 = 726

Here the cross beam is the sum of The Hebrew Messiah,

while the upright (22^2) is the sum of the Greek for 'Of God.'

A rebus puzzle, whose solution is: The Cross of the Messiah of God.

The number 1176 is a well known number to biblical mathematics, as it is the sum of the Greek phrase 'Only Begotten Son' describing Christ. Here we can see that this number is not only regularly cruciform, but cruciform based on the name David, from whose lineage Christ descended, the Royal Line.

This connection is reiterated in the beginning of the New Testament,

where Matthew lists the genealogy of Christ, citing its Davidic 14-based structure.

There are a multitude of Old Testament verses that are direct and rather obvious prophecies of the coming of Christ. Some of these are explicitly detailed in their reference to the crucifixion.

Verses such as Zechariah 13:6 reiterate what Christ said in:

Luke 16:31

And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets,

neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

Although, God has left an avalanche of evidence of His Divine power in the mathematics of the Bible, the prophecies themselves are more than enough to prove His truth.

The mathematics however, are more than proof, they provide both edification for the believer, and deep theological insight into the nature of the Deity.

The doctrine of the cross would become the new tradition of the Christian Faith.

The number 31 features in the mathematics of chapter one in a variety of ways. The most straightforward reason for this is that 31 is a sum of the most common Hebrew name for God—EL-31. By using the rubric of Alpha & Omega with the first and last verses of chapter one we see another strong connection to 31, now in the shape of the cross.

This configuration is prescient, foreseeing centuries into the future, seeing Christ and the Cross, the eventual universal symbol of Christianity, that moment of moments in all of history where the salvation of mankind was made by the love and sacrifice of One.
