Torah Geometry and Gematria by Eric Eliason

The first verse of the Bible is most read and there are amazing things that can be done with it in Hebrew, geometrically and numerically (Gematria). I actually came up with 159 patterns, from the first verse to the whole Torah, but mostly about the first verse or first word. 10 might be coincidence, but 159 is hard to come by. Joseph Smith said the Torah originally began with its second letter R. Half of the patterns work with the first letter B only. Virtually all of the other half work with either B or R to start. I think this book presents a case for believing in Joseph Smith. It also indicates that I'm doing something right with all these patterns. Some of the patterns seem like Jews may have created them, but some just seem impossible. You will have to decide. I got a Master's degree from BYU and studied a lot of Hebrew but am not too familiar with the actual language. In the last century I saw a geometry/Gematria pattern and thought it must be God or later Aliens. I had no idea that one day I would create 159 of my own! Since there are so many, I must be doing something right. For those seeking a fun way to believe very strongly in a higher power, which can help many people, this book is for you. I have my own style, but this book is quite undeniable. You can still choose right and wrong. These are not signs. You are not putting the word of God to the test. In fact you are living by the word of God. In fact, the idea is if you see a pattern, it suggests something about God. Because of its unlikeliness that gives you motivation to believe. Then you can learn about God. You are welcome to interpret them differently than me. I would like to share them with you and maybe you can help me share them with others! I think they are fun and a great way to believe in a higher power! I believe I have been gifted to do these patterns. A handful aren't perfect, which I state; a few are goofy; but I can promise more than enough good, dare I say awesome, solid ones.
