A friend told me not to submit this article because it is beyond the
“average” mind. Are my readers DUMB? LAZY? Is he right? Or, is my faith
in my readers correct?? I need to win this bet. Please let me know in
the comments.
A little numerology - nine the number of truth – six the number of falsehood.
We repeat in the Bible and in our prayers – G-d is Truth. The true Judge, our Judge is true, and you sit on your throne in truth, the signature (AND SEAL) of G-d (at the end of the High Holiday season of judgement) is truth. All his ways are kindness and truth, kindness and truth will bring forth your countenance, and many many more inferences of this sort, especially in our liturgy from the high holidays.
We read in the bible – “righteousness - righteousness you should (incessantly) pursue”. The commentaries explain; while it is true that this is a deceiving, lying world by its very nature, our job is to never stop looking for and pursuing the truth. Whoever runs after it here in this world, because he made this his objective, he is guaranteed he will get there, in the world to come, as the bible promises, “and you will inherit ….”
The language of the primordial snake to Eve on the first day of her creation was deceit and lies. As a result, Adam and Eve were judged and all the hardships and difficulties we must now endure are the consequences of that lie. The Angel of Death is called Samael, because his entire subversion, is one of blinding, hiding the truth from the person (In Hebrew-Lesameh) at the time of his enticements, that it is worth giving away the future, or better yet, not even thinking of the consequences, for immediate gratification.
That is why when G-d created the world, the words of creation itself, as recorded in the Bible, the first three words and the last three words used to describe this creation, the end letters spell, Emet-Truth. G-ds own imprint and signature, at the beginning and at the end, on the top and on the bottom of everything.
One of the verses we proclaim before the sounds of the shofar, as we prepare to appoint G-d as our King, is, “the beginning (the start) of your words are truth, and (as a result) forever, are all the decisions of your justice.”
If, right at the start of everything related to G-d is Emet- truth, and as I pointed out, Emet-truth is right there as the last letters right at the beginning and at the end of the words that describe creation, why does the bible begin with the second letter of the Hebrew alphabet “Bet” and not the first letter of the Alphabet “Aleph” which is also the first letter of the word truth?
In Hebrew, letters represent also numbers. The word truth-Emet when added up, Aleph is 1, Mem is 40, and Tof is 400, using the first numbers, excluding the tens, we come to 1+4+4=9.
The number 9, is the (numerical value) number of truth. If you multiply 9 by any number, you never get away from 9. 9x2=18. Eight and one is 9. 9x3 = 27. Seven plus two equals nine. 9 x 56= 504. Five plus four equals nine.
When you have the energy of 9, G-dly truth, it will always lead to nine. You will always be established and unwavering with the clarity of truth, 9.
Only because G-d is truth-Emet the story of creation and the Bible needed to start with a Bet, the second letter.
In Kabbalah it is written, every day of the week is influenced by the energy of another three letters of the Hebrew Alphabet. Seven days of the week, multiplied by three letters, equals 21 letters, and there are 22 letters in the Hebrew Alphabet.
When we begin the first day with Bet-2, Gimmel -3, Daled-4, we get, 2+3+4=9
The second day, Hay-5, Vov-6, Zayin -7. 5+6+7=18. Eight plus one equals 9
I will leave it to you to figure the other days……..
The seventh day Resh-200, Shin-300, Tof- 400, 2+3+4=9
Every day is truth, and has in it the infinite G-d of truth. Simplicity, strength and clarity are at the core underlying all the dirt that has fallen on top. It is this truth, we must dig for and pursue, and we are guaranteed to reach.
If the world was created starting with Aleph the first letter, we would get every day six.
Aleph-1, Bet-2, Gimmel-3, for the first day 1+2+3=6
The second day Daled-4, Hay-5, vov-6. 4+5+6= 15 One plus five equals six
I will leave it to you to figure the other days……..
Shabbat the seventh day would be. Koof- 100, Raish-200, Shin-300. One plus two plus three equals six!
Now let us take the word Sheker-falsehood in Hebrew, the opposite of Emet=Truth.
Shin-300, Koof- 100, Resh- 200. 3+1=2=6
G-d is truth, His Torah is truth and the life we live is one of truth and everlasting, like the truth itself.
