*Bible Numerals - #5*
By Eddy Joel Silsbee
May our Gracious God bless us.
In series from the past days, we are exploring the number patterns used in Bible. Today we look at significance of Number 5.
5- denotes God’s Grace
5 can be achieved in 2 ways.
1 (God) + 4 (World) = 5 (Grace)
3 (Godhead) + 2(division) = 5 (Grace)
5 is the number of grace, and multiplied by itself, which is 25, is 'grace upon grace' (John 1:16).
The Ten Commandments contains two sets of 5 commandments. The first 5 commandments are related to our treatment and relationship with God, and the last 5 concern our relationship with others humans.
Abraham sacrificed with 5 items (Gen 15:9) witnessing the Grace of God for HIS Promise to Abraham.
By God’s Grace, David defeated Goaliath by picking 5 stones. Used 1 (God) stone ! (1 Sam 17:40)
God instructed Moses to prepare the holy anointing oil with 5 spices. Exo 30:23-25
And, God instructed Moses to prepare the fragrance with 5 spices. Exo 30:34-35
Tabernable is measured with multiples of 5 (Exo 26-28)

Daniel prophesied of 5th Kingdom – Eternal God’s kingdom (Dan 2:44)

(This series is just to understand the numbers in Bible… do not get trapped in Numerology !!... that’s abomination in the Eyes of our Lord !! beware)
May the Grace of our God be with us !!
