#Bible codes search pro code#
The whole bible code phenomenon frankly fascinates me. One true bible code that everyone else who's found bible codes is really just beingĭuped by Satan, and that anyone who doesn't accept the truth of his one true The gist of it is that he has discovered the
But this week, a new comment on that post showed up. My last post about the Lord's Witnesses and their goofy prophesies was back in 2006. They've proposed somewhere around 20 different dates. They've been predicting that Manhattan will be hit by an atomic bomb. Jehovah's Witness spinoff group that claims to have discovered a "bible code" by which propheciesĪre embedded in the bible.

Which raises the question: Were these secret messages encoded both for those who have Hebrew as their primary language as well as those whose languages, like English, read left to right?Ī deeper problem with Drosnin's methodology lies in the fact that we do not possess the original copies of the Hebrew Bible, only copies made many generations after the original authors wrote. Though Hebrew is written in a right-to-left direction, the researchers also looked in the opposite direction to find many of the secret codes. One search, for example, used every fiftieth letter in the first chapter of Genesis to find the word Israel. This "equidistant letter sequence" (ELS) methodology can mean skipping a few letters or words, or even a few hundred letters or words, to find hidden words. The supposed codes are found by eliminating spaces between words, providing a string of letters that are then subjected to computer searches.
