Geri: The number 153 is the triangle of the number 17, known as T17. It is full of interesting stuff. It suggests that the Church is a fixed number of individuals who will partake of the divine nature. (2 Peter 1:4) The number 17 is associated with the resurrection of Jesus/Yeshua who was raised on Nisan 17. The Scriptures are full of triangular numbers. It is worthy of a study. Bottom line: The truth of the matter is that the word of God is a divine communication and mathematically perfect. Hebrew and Greek are dual character languages. Each letter has a numeric value. One can get lost in this study of divine numerics, but for me, it is proof of divine inspiration. Can you imagine the scope of supply chain problems following our departure? The shelves will be empty on Day 3. I lived through the Mt. St. Helens volcanic eruption in Eastern Washington in May 1980. It was night at 3 pm on Sunday. The first items emptied from the grocery stores were milk, bread, beer and wine. By Wednesday stores were empty. Without supply chain, anarchy will prevail by day seven. Most have no more that a week's food in their homes. A curiosity for sure! TR So cool with Abraham being born in 1948! And 2023 is when they entered the Promise Land. We might not have to wait for January 2023 on our calendar since this September’s Feast of Trumpets they will be ringing in the new year 2023. :whistle: Eating, drinking and given in marriage IMHO is an indictment against those who forego spiritual issues! Secondly, it can also be a statement of trust for those that are believers! After having addressed spiritual matters, we should then occupy and address the concerns of life on a daily basis! Rather than isolate and forsake issues of the day! Expect His coming any minute, while continue planning for the long haul, not knowing the day or hour! TR
