Bible codes, also known as Torah codes, are words, phrases and clusters of words and phrases that some people believe are meaningful and exist intentionally in coded form in the text of the Bible. These codes were made famous by the book The Bible Code, which claims that these codes can predict the future. All of these claims are strongly denied by skeptics and many religious groups. The primary method by which purportedly meaningful messages are extracted is the Equidistant Letter Sequence (ELS). To obtain an ELS from a text, choose a starting point (any letter) and a skip number, possibly negative. Then, beginning at the starting point, select letters from the text at equal spacing as given by the skip number. For example, the bold letters in this sentence form an ELS from the word SAFEST. (The skip is -4. Spaces and punctuation are ignored.) Often more than one ELS related to some topic can be displayed simultaneously in an ELS letter array. This is produced by writing out the text in a regular grid, with exactly the same number of letters in each line, then cutting out a rectangle. In the example below, we show part of the King James Version of Genesis (26:5–10) with 33 letters per line. ELSs for BIBLE and CODE are shown. Normally only a smaller rectangle would be displayed, such as the rectangle drawn in the figure. In that case there would be letters missing between adjacent lines in the picture, but it is essential that the number of missing letters be the same for each pair of adjacent lines. There are also Bible Codes programs where you write a word and it will search it in the whole bible Such as Titanic Visit this site for more Bible Codes
this topic will challenge your religious beliefs the church always say believe this believe that, but you can't spell believe without writing a "lie". ^_^ beLIEve
you cant prove HOW god exists or WHY we advanced as a human race so fast. so how can u say stuff from a book is true?
I very much doubt these 'Bible Codes'. I really don't think something written so long ago, has any chance of predicting the future.
I saw that show on A&E. The reason I don't believe it is because they even tried Moby Dick and found codes there too!
i've read about this stuff before... and while I do believe in God... not sure I'm totally sold on the codes yet... could be though... I guess I don't really have an opinion either way
