The Facts About 777

Whereas the number 666 is very explicitly referenced in the bible, 777 is never mentioned. When trying to find an explanation, these were the most popular:

1. 777 represent the Trinity.
2. 7 Churches, 7 Stars/Angels and 7 Lamp stands.
3. 7 Horns, 7 Eyes and 7 Spirits of God.

There are many other instances of 7 being used. 7 is a very popular number in the bible; probably derived from the creation. So is 12; probably initiated by Jacob’s 12 sons. And 40; like the 40 days and 40 nights of rain during the deluge. 430 is another such number. And 5.

Mathematically there is nothing special about the number 7. It is the fourth prime number. Preceded by 2, 3 & 5 and followed by 11, 13, 17 etc. The factors for 777 (3 X 7 X 37) are equally unimpressive. From a pure mathematical viewpoint 666 is a much more interesting number.

I might be wrong, but as a lifelong biblical scholar, my conclusion is that 777 is a man made number without any foundation in the bible; therefore not holy at all.

So my question is: Who had the audacity to assign a number to God?

To assign a number to a god was a Babylonian practice. Could it be that 777 was ‘invented’ to get the attention to away from the pointing finger of 666 and its Babylonian origin? Remember, the Babylonian religion was amalgamated with the Christian Church in 425 ADE by command of the Roman emperor Constantine.

doh It's too clever for me...

Hi CAT hi allllllll.... kiss

I like the number 7 - this is my date of birth and the day of the Annunciation.

...and I agree with MARTHA
Worthy application a worthy number.

Cat, wanted to keep silent because I can be mistaken.
25-18=7; 19-12=7; 19-12=7; Three seven! It is known in mathematics that:

777?143=111111

777 x (143H2)-222222

777 x (143H3) =333333

777 x (143H4) =444444

777 x (143H5) =555555

777 x (143 x 6) = 666666

777/ Õ / // (143 x 7)//=//777777//and//so further.

Surprisingly, honor it it is connected with the Koran in chapter 1! It has the hidden value.
Pythagoreans claimed that the mathematics shows an exact method with which God established and approved the Universe. Numbers, therefore, precede harmony as their invariable laws operate all harmonious proportions. these are figures 777, and 666. Other version I can eat I don't know.dunno
Hi Hans,

Yes, modern excavations at the site of ancient Jericho suggest that the walls come tumbling outwards though the northen section still stand today. This is the part where Rahab and her family was sheltered. Her reward for helping the Israelite spies.

Rahab went on to marry Salmon; they were direct ancesters of King David and therefore of JC too.
Hi Fot,

Jesus said to forgive seven times is not enough. You must do so 490 times (70 X 7).

Hi Ummka,

WOW! Are you a mathematical genius? laugh

Just shows you the wonderful magic in numbers again.

Still Hans,

I hope I never get to discover my terminal frequency.

Hi Ummka again.

I have no doubt that God is the greatest mathematician ever.
Oh CAT...roll eyes

I had in mind the idea of ??FORGIVENESS and not a number...




Hi my dear UMMMMMMOCHKA lips

heart beating
Ummka again,

I saw that pic in a movie; cannot remember which. Alzheimer's?
laugh laugh
I'm teasing you Fot.

Will you forgive me, please?
laugh
@ Catfoot - The human body is quite complex and each type of cell has its own unique frequency but the simplest way to terminate a human is to use the frequency that stops the heart from beating and that is done every day somewhere to perform heart surgery... rolling on the floor laughing
Hi Hans I see you in WEL blog.
Im fine ... thank.
kiss

HANS

Stop stops the heart, and go quickly to the kitchen you have escaped milk.mumbling

Hi Fot,

Don't forget about the seven.

I humbly'll stand on the sidelines
have a smoke and read
I've never been good at math and all connected with it
dunno

No I do not forgive you CAT
because it not for that, and I was not angrygrin
@ Fotinia - Thanks for the warning, I have caught the milk.... It's now in my coffee.... grin rolling on the floor laughing lips

Hi Ummka,

Good grief! My name also has 11 letters. Was I too involved?
laugh laugh

It is funny, the number 4711 (Eau de Cologne) had been very prominent in my life. It even reflects the lengths of my first name and family name. It popped up in phone numbers, employee numbers, reference numbers, car registration number, licence numbers, you name it. And 4+7=11 too.
dunno confused
Hans
doh I told you, these are not

THIS cake frustrated
@ Cat - open your eyes and look again at my username.... professor
@ Fotinia - OK Girl, now you have lost me..... confused lips
wow

4711 !!!

doh
Hi 4711,

I go through life blindfolded! But then I never do pay any attention to the numbers following a name. Does the number bother you as well.
confused laugh
@ Ummka & Cat - the twin identical towers look like the number 11 against the sky .... cool
Mr. 4+7=11 do not talk nonsense wine
Hmm, a very big 11.
Hi Fot,

I don't have to. Nonsense speak for itself,
rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
My Mother was born in Germany, her favorite cologne was 4711... when she passed away I used the letters 4711 for my email name, my personal number plates on my car (HG-4711) and for username for on-line sites out of respect for her.... I still have her last bottle of 4711..... cool
Hi Hans.

I have no such connection. Mine came by itself every time. At present I have a corruption of such a number. 47443. 4+4+3=11.
dunno confused
No CAT not you
I told with HANS wow!4711
HE SAY - LOST...

Grrrr...

I'll be back grin soooooon.
Hi Fot,
