Myrbdl Myrpomh Ha’Misparim La’Debarim The Numbers of the Words rds by Craig Peters
The The Ligh Light of the Shabbat Revealed in the Giving of the Manna
a On the evening of 2/25/2013, the author was led to the Hebrew text of Shemot (Exodus) 16:33:
And Mosheh said to Aharon, Take a pot, and put the omer full of manna therein, and let it rest before hwhy , for a charge for your generations. Exodus 16:33 Meditation on this text continued upon retiring and then across the next day f rom morning to evening. The truths revealed in the Spirit on that second evening evening left me completely stunned and in awe of hwhy and His indescribable and magnificent Word. It is certainly one of the greatest and most awe-inspiring number connections ever seen by this writer, and we give thanks to hwhy for the lovingkindness and truth which He continues to bestow upon all of His people through the light revealed in His Word. tsrqupeonmlkyjxzwhdgba
The The Ligh Light of the F irst irst Day Day Culm Culmina inates in the Ligh Light of the Seventh Day Day Shabbat In various studies already presented, the following thoughts were written about the light of hwhy which He placed within the Shabbat/Sabbath by putting His 1 Presence/Spirit in the Seventh Day. Some highlights of these teachings have been complied and reorganized in this section as we review certain truths for those who may not have seen them previously. previously. All of this is done to set forth the necessary foundation foundation for what will then follow in regards to the giving of the Manna. tsrqupeonmlkyjxzwhdgba 2
On the First Day of the Creation (of the heavens and earth that are now ), Elohim 3 spoke forth the existence of light: ←

The Hebrew word for “light” is rwa/ur. And there is amazing significance behind behind the misparim of rwa/ur/light being 207. 207. This value is obtained by the calculation shown shown just below: (mv)
207 = (200)

r + (6) w + (1) a = rwa = ur = light
We will not provide more details for all Six of these days of Creation; however, 4 readers may study those meditations in a separate manuscript. But the light of the First Day did progress across each of the following Six Days:
Still more light from Elohim was seen in each of the subsequent days of Creation, culminating in the great light which hwhy placed placed wi within thin the Se Seventh venth Day Day Shabbat. Shabbat. Then, on the Seventh Day, Day, Elohim rested from all His works. works. This day was blessed and set apart (sanctified) by Elohim with a special anointing of His Light and Presence; and we must know that it is only the Spirit and the Presence of hwhy that can 5 set anything apart. No man can add to or take away from the Design of hwhy in 6 setting something apart, although carnal man can certainly defile something that Elohim has set apart (yet it is he, and not Elohim, who suffers the consequences). That hwhy placed His light and Presence in the Seventh Day is evident when we behold the misparimfor the word Shabbat (Sabbath): (mv)
702 = (400)

t + (2) b + (300) S = tbS = Shabbat
But this number, 702, is the reflection—the mirror image—of the misparimfor light: (mv)

r + (6) w + (1) a = rwa = ur = light
So even within in the Creation Week itself,
hwhy declared the end from the beginning: 7
The The Ligh Light of the First First Day Day (20 (207) culmina inated in the Light of the Seventh Day (702). This explains why those who wish to seek hwhy and to walk in His light will receive the most understanding from His Word by upholding the the sanctity of the Shabbat. Shabbat. As we honor the Shabbat, we honor hwhy, and He will bless us with greater light and understanding from His Eternal Word: for it is only by walking in His Sabbath Light 8 that we will see light. Yes, hwhy will certainly reveal Himself to us on other days of the week, but in all of eternity, we can never regain the opportunity lost by failing to seek Him within the light of that special Shabbat He has given to end any particular week. hwhy is jealous for the Set Apart Time to the end He may meet with us, and so 4

must we be to meet with Him. Him. Those who recognize the unchanging Messiah Messiah as the 10 Sovereign of the Shabbat will also experience Him shining the light of Elohim’s 11 12 splendor on and from the Torah and revealing still more of the Father’s Name to His people:
15 But unto this day, whenever Mosheh is read, a veil lies upon their heart. 16 But whenever it shall turn to the Sovereign, the veil is taken away. 17 Now hwhy is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of hwhy is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the sp spllendor ndor of the Sove Sovereign, gn, are are transform transformed into into the same image—from splendor to splendor—even as from the hwhy the Spirit. 2Corinthians 3:15-18 13
The riches of His great wisdom and knowledge are hidden in the Mashiach/Messiah, and these immense and highly valued treasures are not granted to the casual passer-by. W ord and ways to those who will obey hwhy14will only give His Spirit and reveal His Word 15 Him, to those who will love Him and seek Him with all their hearts.
sparim/number bers reflect the great And there are still other ways in which the Hebrew mispari truth of His Spirit/Presence/Light having been perpetually placed within the Seventh Day! The Shabbat is the Day that has been set apart with with the light of His Presence, the Light of His Name/Spirit. To see how the Hebrew numbers numbers reveal this, we will review the place value for the Name of hwhy and for light/ur/ rwa: (pv) (pv)

26 = (5) h + (6) w + (5) h + (10) y = hwhy = YHWH 27 = (20) r + (6) w + (1)
a = rwa = ur = light
As we have seen many times and in many ways, light (27) emanates from fr om the awesome and loving Presence of hwhy (26). Yet when these these two values values (26 and 27) 27) are multiplied together, we get the precise value for the misparimof Shabbat: 26 (Y H W H ) x 27 (L ight) = 702 (Shabbat) (Shabbat) (mv)
702 = (400)

t + (2) b + (300) S = tbS = Shabbat
Yes, hwhy has most certainly placed His Name/Spirit and His Light within the 16 Qadosh Shabbat, making the Seventh Day a perpetual Sanctuary in Time and Space;

and those who enter therein—honoring the Light of His Loving Presence—will be blessed with still more of of His Spirit, light, splendor, and love. tsrqupeonmlkyjxzwhdgba
Having established this foundational revelation, we will see the very same results in the giving of the Manna which hwhy orchestrated to reveal the Shabbat to all Yisrael and to test whether or not our forefathers would walk in the Torah and uphold the sanctity of His Set Apart Day.
The The Ligh Light in the Giving ing of the Man Manna Culm Culmina inates in the Ligh Light of the Shabbat So the light which broke forth on the First F irst Day of Creation culminated in the light of hwhy which emanated from His Presence on the Shabbat: the Day was/is qadosh because of the Presence of Elohim which which He has placed by the the Spirit within the of Cr Creation, there is a revelation Seventh Day. Yet like like the F irst Week of r evelation of the Shabbat which is seen in the Giving of the Manna in the wilderness. And the number pattern, thus formed, not only reveals the Shabbat, but the whole scenario is almost just like the ays of Cr Creation ation (and it is certainly just as much, if scenario seen in the F irst Seven Days not more astounding)! Recalling the evening of 2/25/2013 and the Hebrew text of Shemot/Exodus 16:33, this relevant Scripture is provided once more:
And Mosheh said to Aharon, Take a pot, and put the omer full of manna therein, and let it rest before hwhy , for a charge for your generations. Exodus 16:33 Of course, some of the related numbers numbers were also considered at that time. On that first evening of meditation, the two-letter Hebrew word for Manna ( Nm/mahn) was studied place val value and the and pondered. In a significant part of this meditation, meditation, the place misparim value for this Hebrew word were determined: (pv) (mv)
←
←
←
←
←
←
27 = (14) w + (13) m = Nm = Nm/mahn/manna 90 = (50) w + (40) m = Nm = Nm/mahn/manna
It was interesting so see the misparim value of Manna added to 90 and to note that the Tehillim/Ps Psa alms 90. This did not seem first psalm attributed to the prophet Mosheh is Te to be coincidental since Yisrael was under the leadership of Mosheh when the miracle first began surrounding the giving of the Manna. Manna. It was also significant that the place value of light: value for “Manna” was 27—the number which equals the place val (pv)
27 = (20)
←
←
←
r + (6) w + (1) a = rwa = ur = light
What light was there in connection connection with the giving of the Manna? The giving of the Manna centered around the Seventh Day Shabbat; so what might this significant 4
number, 27, mean and what what might it have to do do with the Shabbat? A day later, the answer would be revealed still further. The total value of of Manna ( Nm/mahn) was seen to be 117—the number composed of the sum s um between 27 (its place value) and 90 (its misparim value): The Total Sum / Total Value of Manna: 27 + 90 = 117
Psalm 117 directs the nations to praise
hwhy and it is by the goodness of Elohim
(which He continually bestows upon our nation, Yisrael) that He intends to bring all 17 the peoples of the earth to the knowledge of His great light. The goodness of hwhy was certainly upon ancient Yisrael in His leading us for forty years through the wilderness and then bringing bringing us into the Land of Promise. And the daily provision provision of Manna was a significant part of that goodness. Here is what occurred, and what hwhy recorded through Mosheh, just prior to the Manna provision’s commencement:
1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Yisrael came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt. 2 And the whole congregation of the children of Yis Yisrae rael murmured red agains inst Mos Mosheh and agains inst Aharon ron in the wilde ilderne rness: 3 and the children of Yisrael said to them, Would that we had died by the hand of hwhy in the land of Egy Egypt, pt, when when we sat by the the fle flesh–pots, sh–pots, when when we did eat bread to the full; for you have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger. 4 Then hwhy said to Moshe osheh, Behol Behold, d, I will wil l rain ain br bread from from heav heave en for you; you; and the peopl ople wil will go out and gathe gatherr a day’ day’s portion porti on eve every day, day, that I may pr prove them them, whether they will walk in My Torah, or not. 5 And it will come to pass on the sixth day, that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice twice as much as they they gather dail daily. Exodus 16:1-4 And yet another miracle occurred over and above the daily provision itself: the Manna that would normally spoil if kept over until the next day did not spoil when kept over until the Shabbat:
19 And Mosheh said to them, Let no man leave of it until the morning. 20 Notwithstandi Notwithstanding, ng, they hear hearke kene ned d not to Moshe Mosheh; h; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and became foul: and Mosheh was angry with with them. 21 And they they gathered it it morni orning ng by morni orning, ng, every every man accordi according ng to his his eati eating: ng: and whe when n the sun gr grew hot, it i t melted elted.. 22 And it it came to pass, that on the sixth sixth day they gathered gathered twice twice as much bread, two omers for each one: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Mosheh. 23 And he said to them, This is that which hwhy 17
Isaiah 60:1-3

has spoke spoken, n, Tom Tomorr orrow is is a complete plete rest, est, a Qadosh Qadosh Shabb Shabbat at to hwhy : bake that which you will bake, and boil that which you will boil; and all that remains over lay up for you to be kept until the morning. 24 And they laid it up until the morning, as Mosheh commanded: and it did not become foul, neither was there any worm therein. 25 And Mosheh said, Eat that today; for today is a Shabbat to hwhy : today you will not find it in the field. 26 Six days you shall gather it; but on the Seventh Day is the Shabbat, in it there shall be none. Exodus 16:19-25 And while all Yisrael had been directed not to go out to collect Manna on the Shabbat, some still failed to heed the warning:
27 And it it came to pass, on the Seventh venth Day, Day, that that there there went went forth forth some of the people to gather, but they found not. 28 Then said hwhy to Mosheh, How long will you refuse to keep My commandments and My laws? 29 See, because, hwhy , has given you the Shabbat, for this cause, He is giving you on the sixth day, food for two days: abide every man in his place, let no man go forth forth from from his his dwel dwellling on the Seve Seventh nth Day. Day. 30 So the peopl people e rested ested on the Seventh venth Day. Day. Exodus 16:27-30 Thus, the giving of the the manna was an exercise in light/revelation: light/revelation: Light came from the provision of hwhy across the six days leading up to the Shabbat; and light resulted when there was no Manna to be found in the fields on the Seventh Day; the absence of Manna was light! hwhy revealed His Shabbat and miraculously preserved whatever was prepared in advance to honor His Set Apart Time. Yet the Hebrew mispari sparim/number bers will also reveal the Shabbat at the end of the six days of MannaProvision from Heaven! Recall the full value of Manna equals 117: (pv) (mv)
←
←
←
←
←
←
27 = (14) w + (13) m = Nm = Nm/mahn/manna 90 = (50) w + (40) m = Nm = Nm/mahn/manna
================== Total = 117 Manna (117) was gathered across across the six days (6), and then then came the Shabbat. Yet collecting Manna across 6 days creates the following multiplication problem:
But, when multiplied, this value is precisely equal to the misparimfor the Qadosh/Set Apart Shabbat!
(mv)
702 = (400)
←
←
←
t + (2) b + (300) S = tbS = Shabbat 6
The gathering of Manna for six days culminated cu lminated in the Shabbat—upon which there was to be no gathering gathering because there would be be no Manna! Just as the light (207) spoken forth on the First Day of Creation was progressively revealed across the Six Days—leading to and culminating in the Light of the Seventh Day (Shabbat = 702)— even so the light (27) seen in the provision of the Manna (also 27) in the wilderness culminated in the arrival of the Shabbat and the Light of the Seventh Day (702). This is the Day which hwhy says will remain perpetual/age-abiding across the many eons of 18 time that it will take to see 1000 generations come forth upon the Earth.
Summary sparim/numbers bers really are the Commentary When properly understood, the Hebrew mispari of hwhy over His Eternal Word. These numbers are unarguably unarguably Inspired and and are intended to leave the people of the Most High overwhelmed and standing in awe of a loving and all-knowing, all-powerful Creator. 19
When the Messiah asserted “the Shabbat was made for man/Adam” from where did He derive that great truth? truth? True, the B’reshit/Genesis account account reveals Adam inherited the Shabbat immediately upon being created. But the Hebrew numbers numbers tell us the very same thing regarding man and and the Shabbat. Recall that the number number 45 is the misparim for “Mda/Adam/man:” ←
(mv)
←
←
45 = (40) M + (4) d + (1) a = Mda = Mda/Adam/man
While we have seen the misparimfor tbS/Shabbat equals 702, the place value for the Seventh Day is, not coincidentally, 45: (pv)
45 = (22) t + (2)
←
←
←
b + (21) S = tbS = Shabbat
And is it any wonder, then, that the One who calls Himself the “Sovereign of the 20 Shabbat(45)” is also called by Sha’ul “the Last Adam (45)” and a Life-Giving Spirit?
So also it is written, The first man, Adam, became a living soul. The Last Adam is a life–giving Spirit. 1Corinthians 15:45 We exalt the Messiah to be the Great Teacher of Misparim because He is the Son of 21 the Eternal Elohim—who ever counts, numbers bers,22 names, weighs,23 and measures easur es!24 We pray this meditation, as well as this entire series of articles, will reveal r eveal the greatness of hwhy and His Messiah to all Yisrael and to all the world. 18
