Bible Numerals - #1

 


*Bible Numerals - #1*

-Eddy Joel Silsbee

 

May the Lord bless us who does Everything amazingly and miraculously.

 

We are going to think about the *numbers* mentioned in the Bible for the next ten days to understand its meaning bit deeper.

 

Numbers like 1, 3, 7, 12, 40, 120 are often appears in Bible. They all has a valid meaning!

 

In Mark 8:18-21 …“when I divided the 5 loaves of bread for the 5,000 men. How many large baskets full of leftovers did you pick up?" They answered, "12". Jesus said, "When I divided the 7 loaves of bread for the 4,000 men, how many small baskets full of leftovers did you pick up?" They answered, "7." Jesus said to them, "Do you still not understand?"

Writing just the *gist* only.

 

*This is not Numerology*”, We require to deeply understand the Bible numbers. Our God is a perfect God. Who can fully understand His knowledge?

 

1 (one) - Ihad in Hebrew.

 

“*One” - God's name* (zak 14: 9)

And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day there shall be one Lord, and his name shall be one. zak 14: 9

 

The number 1 is only divisible by itself.

 

It is independent of any other numerals yet composes them all.

 

It symbolizes in the Bible the unity and primacy, and the oneness of the Godhead.

 

The number 1 also represents the unity between God the Father and His Son Jesus (John 10:30).

 

Jesus, by his singular sacrifice, has made possible the forgiveness of all our sins. He is the one Mediator and Shepherd (1Timothy 2:5; John 10:16) in the life of a Christian.

 

It symbolizes unity and primacy and divinity in Scripture. Deuteronomy 6: 4, 1 John 5: 7

 

Jesus and the Father are “one *” (John 10:30)

 

One - signifies unity (John 17: 21-23)

 

Further,

One of the essentials of the world's relationship with God is that:

One hope,

One body,

One Spirit;

One Lord,

One Faith,

One baptism,

One God and Father; Eph. in 4:4-6

 

Husband and wife (one flesh) Matt. 19:5. (That’s why no polygamy in Christianity)

 

Read the Bible with all Understanding and analyze, Blessings and goodness will cover you.
