Wrong number. 137. Not even 137. 137.035999084 And technically not even that, there's one constant, the fine structure constant, that when taken as a reciprocal is just about 1/137.035999084. So it's a weird number, but not that weird, since it's just made up of other constants, such as the speed of light, and the Planck constant. If you take constant numbers, a constant number will appear. Just like how, if, and that happens rather often, pi happens to appears in weird places, a circle is usually involved somewhere. This: 0.0072973525693 is the number. 1/137 just happens to be just about close enough to it to be used as a somewhat useful approximation. Humans are prone to find meaning in the meaningless. It's called apophenia.
I must confess that I originally came to your channel in bad faith. I've had some bad experiences with Reformed Baptists™, and, out of bitterness, I left a couple of nasty comments. I do sincerely apologize for that. Your content has been a breath of fresh air in a smoky parlor for me. Thank you.
This is honestly unbelievable, these aren't coincidences, this is the work of God. The books of The Bible was written over thousands of years, over 3 continents, in different languages and by different people. God coordinated all the work in such a way, and it is very beautiful ❤️✝️
After watching Veritasium’s video about the number 37 my jaw dropped to the floor when I saw 2701 = 37x73, anyone who saw that video probably had the same reaction.
3:20 In the Catholic bible, the middle chapter is Psalm 118. As you noted, Psalm 117 is the shortest, but also Psalm 119 is the longest. It so happens that the exact middle verse of the Catholic bible lands on the Psalm 118:8 which itself may be the shortest description of what the Bible is written about: "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man."
I do also find it interesting that Genesis 1:1, which mentions the creation of the heavens and the earth, is 28 letters, which as you mentioned is divisible by 4, the number of the earth.
28 letters in English or Hebrew? If it's in English but not in Hebrew, that doesn't really mean anything. However, if it's 28 letters in Hebrew, that might mean something.
Not even half an hour and it's full of haters. Even before being released there were already comments mocking the video. I understand the eccentricity of this video. But, consider "coincidences" don't happen often, that's why they are called COINCIDENCES. While it may seem a stupid argument, the fact that the bible has a huge number of coincidences, despite being written from various authors over a variable amount of time, yet shows a strong consistency, numerous patters and high frequence of "coincidences", makes it more convincing and well-grounded. It's the SAME principle by which inductive logic used in e.g. your average clinical trial for testing wether there is association between a drug and it's desired effect or not, works. While isolated numbers and patterns may not be significant (as they would sound as stupid as astrology), the fact that the book is so well made, despite all difficulties talks great about it, and suggests there must be something else going on. You just cant build a single recopilation of books with ~100% (if not 100%) consistency with each other over millennia, with as good quality as the Bible. While numeric patterns may be a questionable point to consider, it's still strong the evidence of those patterns being repeated everywhere throughout different authors, with different dialects and different cultures and different societies, and different mathemathical knowledge. And that's a strong point to consider. The people who attack RZ for doing these, are just the same lone wolves which wait for the right moment to attack. It's not a surprise they are coward enough to attack you for this video, but not in other videos. I understand this video is not ordinary, but I'm with you, and I hope others too ❤
I think they were mostly RZ sub worried about the possibility he wanted to use coincidences as "proof" like some do w/ the Quran and were holding him accountable. 5:15 sets the issue
@@cx9082 Some try to use them as proof it's divine. I find the idea really interesting: if you prove the book, you have proven the religion, unlike some philosophical apologetics that tries to prove a general "divine being" (not that that's unimportant). That said, the claims don't stand. Some are built in very odd ways: for example one of the claims is that "day" appears 365 days, but first it's the solar year, while Muslims use the lunar, and it counts something like "day", "two days" and "today" but excludes others like occurrences of "days", "yesterday" or "nowadays". Others are obtained combining different versions of the Quran to get the desired number, or straight up modifying things where needed, like in some claims of the "code 19". Finally, some are 100% false.
@@BirdBrain00 I'm sorry to tell you this, but you seem ignorant when it comes to The Quran and Islam in general. When you go to the Arabic, the word "day" does in fact appear 365 times. The Arabic Quran is the original Quran, no translation of it is considered to be the actual Quran. Also who said that Islam is limited to the lunar calendar alone? We use the lunar calendar because Islam is preserved and it was well-suited to the societal, environmental, and geographical conditions of Arabia at the time of the Prophet PBUH. The phases of the moon were easily observable and didn't require sophisticated instruments, making it accessible for everyone to follow. Furthermore, The Quran mentions both lunar and solar orbits and cycles in various verses (e.g., 10:5, 36:40), which indicates an awareness and acknowledgment of both systems. There are no "other versions" of the Quran. There is only one and it has been preserved meticulously since the time of Prophet PBUH. The preservation of the Quran in its original Arabic form is unparalleled. Millions of Muslims have memorized it in full, for the last 1400 years, ensuring its consistency across the world. The textual integrity of the Quran is one of its most compelling features, so the idea of "needing" to combine "versions" for numerical coherence unnecessary and unfounded. The fact that you bring up someone like Rashad Khalifa and the "Code 19" says enough about the extent of your knowledge. Anyways, you have stated that there are 100% false claims, yet provided none. Regardless, we Muslims don't care much for the numerical miracles, despite the amount of them. The most important miracle is The Quran itself.
God is so perfect, detailed, and intricate. I bet there are so many more number coincidences that are woven throughout time and space that we may never know.
Yes. Also, language is math. Expressions are the same as Equations, and Language is just the format and rules to follow / coding for its communication. For example, in English the word “is” acts like an equal sign.
one thing i would like to mention is that the bible werent collected in chapters and verses, like we see today. it was just one big book with multiple books in it. it wasnt until the 1200s or so in france they put chapters in the bible and in the 1500s they added the number of verses per chapter. pretty interesting stuff, whether this proves the bible is the sole link humans have to God is another question.
Jesus is the sole link we have to God. The first few generations of Christians didnʼt have the whole Bible sampled yet but lived out their faith nevertheless ”I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14,6)
It was canonized early on. And while the Deutrocanon was put into the Bible (even now in the Catholic Bible), it never held up any authority equal to that of the 66 books, since they were part of the Septuagint used by Paul in his epistles. Even if this were true, It shows that God has had a hand in assembling and transmitting His Word.
@@deutschermichel5807They didn’t need a written Bible at the time. Paul and the apostles taught them the oral gospel, but the gospels were also written pretty early on
Really amazing video, really well thought out, and definitely quite a nice niche topic to discuss. When I tried UA-cam search for the same thing, it was like your video was already the most relevant. God bless you fellow zoomer!
Wow, my favourite number is 37; has been for a long time. I just always liked three, and always liked 7, and decided my favourite number was 37 some time in third grade! Also quite neat that the fine structure constant is 1/137, too.
The title of this video contains 6 words, which combined is made up of a total of 31 letters, and 6+31 equals 37. Also, 31 subtracted by 6 equals 25, or two five, which added together makes seven. Two minus five equals negative 3. 7 plus negative 3 equals four, which subtracted from 25 gives us 21, which can be divided into three equal parts of seven. Very good work Zoomer
The fact that 7 and 3 are such important numbers as opposed to 6, is one of the many reasons which convinced me of the Catholic canon instead of the protestant
Ur videos help me so much! Tysm for explaining stuff ab Christianity, it really helps when im confused ab a certain thing. Ur account literally has everything i was a bit confused on. S And the fact u explain it so understandable is unbelieveble. Thank uu🙏✝️💯
Dude, I knew you came from an ethically Jewish background, but I did NOT expect you to roll out with the flawless Hebrew pronunciation!

The verse “In the beginning, God created..”; is THREE 1s.. Genesis- 1st book, chapter 1, verse 1. So in the beginning God- already in the beginning the Godhead 3 in 1 was there.. Very interesting I think. It’s also worth mentioning that the verse of “one crying in the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord” is both the THIRD verse of each chapter:) (Isaiah 40:3 and Matthew 3:3.) And “the new heaven and new earth”; Isaiah 66, but verse TWO and then Revelation (book 66), but chapter twenty TWO. I think it’s really interesting how deep the word of God confirms itself in many aspects. Also numbers can be very prophetic like we see in dreams in the Bible for example.
Are these patterns placed there intentionally? It's one thing to know that the author intended to put them there, but I wouldn't want to ascribe meaning to patterns which just happened to be there by chance. Also do these patterns work in other number systems besides base 10?
Proof that a number with digits arranged as ABCCBA or CBAABC, where A, B and C are three consecutive digits, will be divisible by 37: Let a, b and c be the number counterparts of the digits A, B and C respectively. Since a, b, and c are consecutive numbers, a = b - 1, c = b + 1. Then, the number ABCCBA (so when A = 2, B = 3, C = 4, ABCCBA will be 234432, for example) = 100000a + 10000b + 1000c + 100c + 10b + a = 100001a + 10010b + 1100 c = 100001(b - 1) + 10010b + 1100(b + 1) = 100001b - 100001 + 10010b + 1100b + 1100 = 111111b - 98901 = 37(3003b - 2673), which is divisible by 37, since 3003b - 2673 is an integer. Likewise, the number CBAABC = 100000c + 10000b + 1000a + 100a + 10b + c = 100001c + 10010b + 1100a = 100001(b + 1) + 10010b + 1100(b - 1) = 100001b + 100001 + 10010b + 1100b - 1100 = 111111b + 98901 = 37(3003b + 2673), which is also divisible by 37, since 3003b + 2673 is an integer.
Yeah, 37 is the most commonly chosen random number if you exclude 1, 100, 69, 42, and 7. He excluded them because they aren't random, but neither is 37.
If you want more of these, theres a channel called "Turth Is Christ" where he talks A LOT about numerical patterns. One of his videos is just numerical patterns and its AN HOUR long
So nice. I never stopped to think about it. Please, make a vídeo about the meaning of the numbers that appear in the beggining of the vídeo. Friendly regards from your presbyterian brother in Brazil
Epic video! I would talk about 12 and 13 too. There seems to be some special interchange between 12 and 13. A couple examples: 12 months (but 13 moon cycles) per year 12 tribes (but technically 13 counting Levi) Jacob has 12 sons (but 13 heirs because he does Manasseh and Ephraim instead of Joseph) Jesus had 12 disciples (13 counting both Matthias and Judas) There are also 12 zodiacs traditionally (but the sun actually passes through a 13th between Scorpio and Sagittarius There are 12 days of Christmas (but... epiphany [the day after the last day of Christmas] is when the wise men supposedly came and festivities traditional continue through that day) 12 comes up a lot by itself too There are 12 minor prophets Elijah built an altar of 12 stones when he called fire down from heaven in 1 Kings 18. Jesus’s first words are recorded at age 12 when Mary and Joseph found Him in His “Father’s house.” When Jesus fed the five thousand, 12 baskets were filled with leftovers. When Peter cut off the soldier’s ear defending Jesus, Jesus rebuked him, saying He had the power to call down 12 legions of angels (Matthew 26:53). The New Jerusalem has 12 gates and 12 foundations (Revelation 21:12-14). The tree of life will bear 12 fruit crops 12 times a year (Revelation 22). God specified that 12 unleavened bread cakes be placed weekly in the temple. 12x2 also comes up a few times. 24 priestly divisions are specified in Chronicles 24. 24 elders in revelation. It seems important, but I haven't looked into it much.
No, it doesn’t prove the Bible is divine, and nobody believes that. You are the whole reason us Christians do not like dealing with atheists- you provide no argument against anything that was actually said, you spam constantly rather than making a valid point, and you have no reason to do any of these things other than just hating us Christians. You, for some reason, find pleasure in trying to ruin something that isn’t even arguing as a proof for God. Go outside, make some friends (or at least try), and find something better to do with your life than this worthless stunt.
@@Pomni740 Love it how you found it necessary to actively go out and try contributing to damaging people's faith. A smug redditor-tier laugh at the in your eyes simple-minded didn't cut it, but destroying something they draw inspiration from, now that's satisfying.
In the Old Testament, the number 37 is mentioned as the number of people in the genealogies of King David (see 2 Samuel 23:8 - 2 Samuel 23:39, which lists David's mighty men, of whom there were 37 in total).
Chuck misler had a video about the math of how many times certain greek words appeared in the gospels. I couldnt figure out a way to verify what he said, but it was interesting.
It's interesting to see a mainstream Christian talking about Hebrew Gematria. I used to be really invested in this topic a couple years ago, after watching the movie Pi, directed by Darren Afronosky.
@Pomni740 possibly, but certainly points to a designer/creator which does make it divine. Fib sequence is one of those math sequences that show a creation theme.
10 commandments are divided onto 3 towards God and 7 towards fellow humans (at least according to the Catholic division). The Catholic Bible has 73 books.
The fact that all of these numbers are palindromes - which are just a numerical version of the chiasm stricture that is all throughout the Bible, is absolutely beautiful
It is also believed among scholars that the ages of the Patriarchs of Genesis are also symbolic, as all of them are directly divisible by either two or five. Many of them have noted that the odds of all this being coincidental are less than 0. something percent. So it is clear that they are supposed to all represent something, but we still don't know yet for sure what. A possible interpretation would be Enoch who is said to live 365 years and is taken up to heaven, some have speculated that this age may represent a full year, thus a complete life. Even if you don't believe in God can people at least appreciate the sheer thought and brilliance that went into composing those texts with so many deep layers of meaning, even down to the numbers used?
amazing! studying greek rn in college and the original language is very fascinating. while the Bible truly is divine, how much weight should we hold to chapter/verse divisions that were given much later than the original, divinely inspired texts? it by no means can be completely called coincidence, but just am curious on your thoughts RZ :)
I suppose someone could argue that since Isiah already had the split at 39th chapter and old testament already had 39 books, and it already had the reference to the first book in of the bible in its first chapter, all the early christians had to do was write 27 more books about hope and make a reference to his 40th chapter in their first book
How would people at the time of Jesus have understood this number of 153 fish? First of all, they would have remembered that Jesus called His disciples "fishers of men", i.e. disciples who went out to "catch" other disciples, so they would immediately have seen the link between fish and disciple-making. Then, any good Jew of the 1st Century AD would have known his (Old Testament) Bible, and would have known that the only specific mention of anything like the number 153 comes in 2 Chronicles 2:17, which says: “Solomon took a census of all the foreigners residing in Israel, after the census his father David had taken; and they were found to be 153,600.” Verse 18 then goes on to say: “He assigned 70,000 of them to be carriers and 80,000 to be stonecutters in the hills, with 3,600 foremen over them to keep the people working.” [If you check, you will see that 70,000 + 80,000 + 3,600 = 153,600] So, these 153,600 people were foreign workers (probably Canaanites). Earlier in the same chapter (vv. 1-2), more details are given: “Solomon gave orders to build a Temple for the Name of the Lord and a royal palace for himself. He conscripted 70,000 men as carriers and 80,000 as stonecutters in the hills and 3,600 as foremen over them.” So, these 153,600 foreign workers were Temple builders. 1 Kings. 5:15-16 reports the same story, but there is a slight discrepancy in the numbers of foremen: “Solomon had seventy thousand carriers and eighty thousand stonecutters in the hills, as well as thirty-three hundred foremen who supervised the project and directed the workers.” That makes 70,000 + 80,000 + 3,300 = 153,300 workers (which is 300 less than are mentioned in the 2 Chronicles version). [The “Benson Commentary” gives a possible explanation for the additional 300 workers in 2 Chronicles as compared to the numbers in 1 Kings, namely that these 300 were a reserve supply in case any of the workers were unable to work.] Anyway, whatever the reason for this discrepancy, the 153,300 or 153,600 workers came to be known to the Hebrew scribes as simply “the 153 thousand Temple-builders”. [The word “thousand” was also symbolic of “a large number”.] So, we can see that anyone in New Testament times who heard the number “153” would immediately think of the large number of foreign workers who helped to build Solomon’s Temple. But when combined with the words “large fish” in John 21:11, they would think of the large number of new (possibly even foreign or gentile!) disciples who were waiting to be “caught”, and they would have also connected the “Temple-building” of the Old Testament with their new God-given mission of “Church-building” - of being “disciples who make disciples”. In Matthew 16:18, Jesus had said to Peter that He would “build His Church”. Now He is passing on that task of Church-building to Peter and the first Disciples. That is still the mission which He gives to His disciples today. [A further link between the Temple and the Church can also be seen. First, Christ refers to His body as a temple: “But He was speaking of the Temple of His Body.” (John 2:21) Then Paul refers to the Church as the “Body of Christ”: “Christ is head of the Church; and He is the Saviour of the Body.” (Ephesians 5:23) “He is the Head of the Body, the Church.” (Colossians 1:18) “…for the sake of His Body, which is the Church.” (Colossians 1:24) So, both Temple-building and Church-building are really building the Body of Christ!]
12 is 3x4. The number 4 represents time, and the fourth lampstand in the temple menorah represents liturgical time. In Anglican and Catholic churches. there are three candles on either side of the crucifix during high masses showing that Jesus is the beginning of the new creation.
Starting from around 3-4 years back (before the time of my taking up of Christianity), I would see (and still do) the number 37 everywhere constantly in my day-to-day life
Wow Thank you for the video and the website!! The Quran also contains some fascinating numerical patterns! For example, ‘Paradise’ and ‘Hell’ are each repeated 77 times, ‘angels’ and ‘devils’ 88 times, ‘world’ and ‘Hereafter’ 115 times, ‘prayers’ (salawat) 5 times (the exact number of daily prayers), ‘punishment’ 117 times, whereas ‘forgiveness’ is repeated double that number, 234 times. ‘Day’ is repeated 365 times (the average number of days in the year), ‘days’ 30 times (the average number of days in the month), and ‘month’ 12 times (the number of months in the year).

You just cant build a single recopilation of books with ~100% (if not 100%) consistency with each other over millennia, with as good quality as the Bible.
While numeric patterns may be a questionable point to consider, it's still strong the evidence of those patterns being repeated everywhere throughout different authors, with different dialects and different cultures and different societies, and different mathemathical knowledge.
And that's a strong point to consider. The people who attack RZ for doing these, are just the same lone wolves which wait for the right moment to attack.
It's not a surprise they are coward enough to attack you for this video, but not in other videos.
I understand this video is not ordinary, but I'm with you, and I hope others too ❤

I think they were mostly RZ sub worried about the possibility he wanted to use coincidences as "proof" like some do w/ the Quran and were holding him accountable.
5:15 sets the issue
What about all the “coincidences” in the Quran?
@@cx9082 Some try to use them as proof it's divine. I find the idea really interesting: if you prove the book, you have proven the religion, unlike some philosophical apologetics that tries to prove a general "divine being" (not that that's unimportant).
That said, the claims don't stand.
Some are built in very odd ways: for example one of the claims is that "day" appears 365 days, but first it's the solar year, while Muslims use the lunar, and it counts something like "day", "two days" and "today" but excludes others like occurrences of "days", "yesterday" or "nowadays".
Others are obtained combining different versions of the Quran to get the desired number, or straight up modifying things where needed, like in some claims of the "code 19".
Finally, some are 100% false.
@@BirdBrain00 I'm sorry to tell you this, but you seem ignorant when it comes to The Quran and Islam in general. When you go to the Arabic, the word "day" does in fact appear 365 times. The Arabic Quran is the original Quran, no translation of it is considered to be the actual Quran.
Also who said that Islam is limited to the lunar calendar alone? We use the lunar calendar because Islam is preserved and it was well-suited to the societal, environmental, and geographical conditions of Arabia at the time of the Prophet PBUH. The phases of the moon were easily observable and didn't require sophisticated instruments, making it accessible for everyone to follow. Furthermore, The Quran mentions both lunar and solar orbits and cycles in various verses (e.g., 10:5, 36:40), which indicates an awareness and acknowledgment of both systems.
There are no "other versions" of the Quran. There is only one and it has been preserved meticulously since the time of Prophet PBUH. The preservation of the Quran in its original Arabic form is unparalleled. Millions of Muslims have memorized it in full, for the last 1400 years, ensuring its consistency across the world. The textual integrity of the Quran is one of its most compelling features, so the idea of "needing" to combine "versions" for numerical coherence unnecessary and unfounded.
The fact that you bring up someone like Rashad Khalifa and the "Code 19" says enough about the extent of your knowledge.
Anyways, you have stated that there are 100% false claims, yet provided none. Regardless, we Muslims don't care much for the numerical miracles, despite the amount of them. The most important miracle is The Quran itself.
God is so perfect, detailed, and intricate. I bet there are so many more number coincidences that are woven throughout time and space that we may never know.
I'm fully convinced that God's language is math.
Yes. Also, language is math.
Expressions are the same as Equations, and Language is just the format and rules to follow / coding for its communication.
For example, in English the word “is” acts like an equal sign.
Theology and maths, the best disciplines.

Average Dutch Reformed catechesis:
one thing i would like to mention is that the bible werent collected in chapters and verses, like we see today. it was just one big book with multiple books in it. it wasnt until the 1200s or so in france they put chapters in the bible and in the 1500s they added the number of verses per chapter. pretty interesting stuff, whether this proves the bible is the sole link humans have to God is another question.
Jesus is the sole link we have to God. The first few generations of Christians didnʼt have the whole Bible sampled yet but lived out their faith nevertheless
”I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14,6)
It was canonized early on. And while the Deutrocanon was put into the Bible (even now in the Catholic Bible), it never held up any authority equal to that of the 66 books, since they were part of the Septuagint used by Paul in his epistles. Even if this were true, It shows that God has had a hand in assembling and transmitting His Word.
@@deutschermichel5807They didn’t need a written Bible at the time. Paul and the apostles taught them the oral gospel, but the gospels were also written pretty early on
Really amazing video, really well thought out, and definitely quite a nice niche topic to discuss. When I tried UA-cam search for the same thing, it was like your video was already the most relevant. God bless you fellow zoomer!
Wow, my favourite number is 37; has been for a long time. I just always liked three, and always liked 7, and decided my favourite number was 37 some time in third grade!
Also quite neat that the fine structure constant is 1/137, too.

My brain’s breaking, this can’t be just coincidences 🤯
Everybody: RZ can pronounce Hebrew well?😮
Meanwhile in RZ's videos: I'm actually ethnically Jewish
The title of this video contains 6 words, which combined is made up of a total of 31 letters, and 6+31 equals 37.
Also, 31 subtracted by 6 equals 25, or two five, which added together makes seven. Two minus five equals negative 3. 7 plus negative 3 equals four, which subtracted from 25 gives us 21, which can be divided into three equal parts of seven.
Very good work Zoomer
That number square and 37 fact blew my mind. What are the chances of that?!
The fact that 7 and 3 are such important numbers as opposed to 6, is one of the many reasons which convinced me of the Catholic canon instead of the protestant
Ur videos help me so much! Tysm for explaining stuff ab Christianity, it really helps when im confused ab a certain thing. Ur account literally has everything i was a bit confused on. S

Dude, I knew you came from an ethically Jewish background, but I did NOT expect you to roll out with the flawless Hebrew pronunciation!

The verse “In the beginning, God created..”; is THREE 1s.. Genesis- 1st book, chapter 1, verse 1.
So in the beginning God- already in the beginning the Godhead 3 in 1 was there..
Very interesting I think.
It’s also worth mentioning that the verse of “one crying in the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord” is both the THIRD verse of each chapter:)
(Isaiah 40:3 and Matthew 3:3.)
And “the new heaven and new earth”;
Isaiah 66, but verse TWO and then Revelation (book 66), but chapter twenty TWO.
I think it’s really interesting how deep the word of God confirms itself in many aspects. Also numbers can be very prophetic like we see in dreams in the Bible for example.
Wow! Praise God truly! Hallelujah!
It's crazy to think of all the other connections and patterns we have yet to discover!
Are these patterns placed there intentionally? It's one thing to know that the author intended to put them there, but I wouldn't want to ascribe meaning to patterns which just happened to be there by chance. Also do these patterns work in other number systems besides base 10?
Gods lyrical writing is so beautiful
Proof that a number with digits arranged as ABCCBA or CBAABC, where A, B and C are three consecutive digits, will be divisible by 37:
Let a, b and c be the number counterparts of the digits A, B and C respectively.
Since a, b, and c are consecutive numbers, a = b - 1, c = b + 1.
Then, the number ABCCBA (so when A = 2, B = 3, C = 4, ABCCBA will be 234432, for example)
= 100000a + 10000b + 1000c + 100c + 10b + a
= 100001a + 10010b + 1100 c
= 100001(b - 1) + 10010b + 1100(b + 1)
= 100001b - 100001 + 10010b + 1100b + 1100
= 111111b - 98901
= 37(3003b - 2673), which is divisible by 37, since 3003b - 2673 is an integer.
Likewise, the number CBAABC
= 100000c + 10000b + 1000a + 100a + 10b + c
= 100001c + 10010b + 1100a
= 100001(b + 1) + 10010b + 1100(b - 1)
= 100001b + 100001 + 10010b + 1100b - 1100
= 111111b + 98901
= 37(3003b + 2673), which is also divisible by 37, since 3003b + 2673 is an integer.
There was an interesting veritasium video about the number 37, it explained some interesting maths behind it

Yeah, 37 is the most commonly chosen random number if you exclude 1, 100, 69, 42, and 7. He excluded them because they aren't random, but neither is 37.

When I watched Veritasium's video about the number 37, this is the first thing that came into my mind.
Epic video! I would talk about 12 and 13 too.
There seems to be some special interchange between 12 and 13. A couple examples:
12 months (but 13 moon cycles) per year
12 tribes (but technically 13 counting Levi)
Jacob has 12 sons (but 13 heirs because he does Manasseh and Ephraim instead of Joseph)
Jesus had 12 disciples (13 counting both Matthias and Judas)
There are also 12 zodiacs traditionally (but the sun actually passes through a 13th between Scorpio and Sagittarius
There are 12 days of Christmas (but... epiphany [the day after the last day of Christmas] is when the wise men supposedly came and festivities traditional continue through that day)
12 comes up a lot by itself too
There are 12 minor prophets
Elijah built an altar of 12 stones when he called fire down from heaven in 1 Kings 18.
Jesus’s first words are recorded at age 12 when Mary and Joseph found Him in His “Father’s house.”
When Jesus fed the five thousand, 12 baskets were filled with leftovers.
When Peter cut off the soldier’s ear defending Jesus, Jesus rebuked him, saying He had the power to call down 12 legions of angels (Matthew 26:53).
The New Jerusalem has 12 gates and 12 foundations (Revelation 21:12-14).
The tree of life will bear 12 fruit crops 12 times a year (Revelation 22).
God specified that 12 unleavened bread cakes be placed weekly in the temple.
12x2 also comes up a few times.
24 priestly divisions are specified in Chronicles 24. 24 elders in revelation.
It seems important, but I haven't looked into it much.
I've always liked the number 12, it seemed ordered to me.
11 + 2 and 12 + 1 both equal 13, and ELEVEN PLUS TWO and TWELVE PLUS ONE have the same letters

No, it doesn’t prove the Bible is divine, and nobody believes that. You are the whole reason us Christians do not like dealing with atheists- you provide no argument against anything that was actually said, you spam constantly rather than making a valid point, and you have no reason to do any of these things other than just hating us Christians. You, for some reason, find pleasure in trying to ruin something that isn’t even arguing as a proof for God. Go outside, make some friends (or at least try), and find something better to do with your life than this worthless stunt.

In the Old Testament, the number 37 is mentioned as the number of people in the genealogies of King David (see 2 Samuel 23:8 - 2 Samuel 23:39, which lists David's mighty men, of whom there were 37 in total).
Chuck misler had a video about the math of how many times certain greek words appeared in the gospels. I couldnt figure out a way to verify what he said, but it was interesting.
7 is the most likely favourite number, 3 is second
Vertasium recently did a video on 37, worth a watch.
This was fire.
It's interesting to see a mainstream Christian talking about Hebrew Gematria. I used to be really invested in this topic a couple years ago, after watching the movie Pi, directed by Darren Afronosky.
One time is an incident. Two times it’s a coincidence. And three times it’s a pattern.

@Pomni740 possibly, but certainly points to a designer/creator which does make it divine. Fib sequence is one of those math sequences that show a creation theme.
10 commandments are divided onto 3 towards God and 7 towards fellow humans (at least according to the Catholic division).
The Catholic Bible has 73 books.
MIND BLOWN!!!!😐😨🤤🤤
Any theories on the significance of 33
I wonder if this is the same way how we'd calculate the beasts name cause of the numbers. This is beautiful.
The chapter and verse numbering came much later than the text, so i wouldn't put much stock in these coincidences.
i wonder what other patterns are encoded by using number bases other than base 10
The fact that all of these numbers are palindromes - which are just a numerical version of the chiasm stricture that is all throughout the Bible, is absolutely beautiful
It is also believed among scholars that the ages of the Patriarchs of Genesis are also symbolic, as all of them are directly divisible by either two or five. Many of them have noted that the odds of all this being coincidental are less than 0. something percent. So it is clear that they are supposed to all represent something, but we still don't know yet for sure what. A possible interpretation would be Enoch who is said to live 365 years and is taken up to heaven, some have speculated that this age may represent a full year, thus a complete life.
Even if you don't believe in God can people at least appreciate the sheer thought and brilliance that went into composing those texts with so many deep layers of meaning, even down to the numbers used?
amazing! studying greek rn in college and the original language is very fascinating. while the Bible truly is divine, how much weight should we hold to chapter/verse divisions that were given much later than the original, divinely inspired texts? it by no means can be completely called coincidence, but just am curious on your thoughts RZ :)
This seems out of character for rz, i suspect a twist.

I suppose someone could argue that since Isiah already had the split at 39th chapter and old testament already had 39 books, and it already had the reference to the first book in of the bible in its first chapter, all the early christians had to do was write 27 more books about hope and make a reference to his 40th chapter in their first book
What does the 153 fish in John's gospel (ch. 21) mean?
How would people at the time of Jesus have understood this number of 153 fish?
First of all, they would have remembered that Jesus called His disciples "fishers of men", i.e. disciples who went out to "catch" other disciples, so they would immediately have seen the link between fish and disciple-making.
Then, any good Jew of the 1st Century AD would have known his (Old Testament) Bible, and would have known that the only specific mention of anything like the number 153 comes in 2 Chronicles 2:17, which says:
“Solomon took a census of all the foreigners residing in Israel, after the census his father David had taken; and they were found to be 153,600.”
Verse 18 then goes on to say:
“He assigned 70,000 of them to be carriers and 80,000 to be stonecutters in the hills, with 3,600 foremen over them to keep the people working.”
[If you check, you will see that 70,000 + 80,000 + 3,600 = 153,600]
So, these 153,600 people were foreign workers (probably Canaanites).
Earlier in the same chapter (vv. 1-2), more details are given:
“Solomon gave orders to build a Temple for the Name of the Lord and a royal palace for himself. He conscripted 70,000 men as carriers and 80,000 as stonecutters in the hills and 3,600 as foremen over them.”
So, these 153,600 foreign workers were Temple builders.
1 Kings. 5:15-16 reports the same story, but there is a slight discrepancy in the numbers of foremen:
“Solomon had seventy thousand carriers and eighty thousand stonecutters in the hills, as well as thirty-three hundred foremen who supervised the project and directed the workers.”
That makes 70,000 + 80,000 + 3,300 = 153,300 workers (which is 300 less than are mentioned in the 2 Chronicles version).
[The “Benson Commentary” gives a possible explanation for the additional 300 workers in 2 Chronicles as compared to the numbers in 1 Kings, namely that these 300 were a reserve supply in case any of the workers were unable to work.]
Anyway, whatever the reason for this discrepancy, the 153,300 or 153,600 workers came to be known to the Hebrew scribes as simply “the 153 thousand Temple-builders”.
[The word “thousand” was also symbolic of “a large number”.]
So, we can see that anyone in New Testament times who heard the number “153” would immediately think of the large number of foreign workers who helped to build Solomon’s Temple. But when combined with the words “large fish” in John 21:11, they would think of the large number of new (possibly even foreign or gentile!) disciples who were waiting to be “caught”, and they would have also connected the “Temple-building” of the Old Testament with their new God-given mission of “Church-building” - of being “disciples who make disciples”.
In Matthew 16:18, Jesus had said to Peter that He would “build His Church”. Now He is passing on that task of Church-building to Peter and the first Disciples. That is still the mission which He gives to His disciples today.
[A further link between the Temple and the Church can also be seen. First, Christ refers to His body as a temple:
“But He was speaking of the Temple of His Body.” (John 2:21)
Then Paul refers to the Church as the “Body of Christ”:
“Christ is head of the Church; and He is the Saviour of the Body.” (Ephesians 5:23)
“He is the Head of the Body, the Church.” (Colossians 1:18)
“…for the sake of His Body, which is the Church.” (Colossians 1:24)
So, both Temple-building and Church-building are really building the Body of Christ!]
12 is 3x4. The number 4 represents time, and the fourth lampstand in the temple menorah represents liturgical time. In Anglican and Catholic churches. there are three candles on either side of the crucifix during high masses showing that Jesus is the beginning of the new creation.
