LOL the number 666 can be traced back to Babylon and the magic square of the sun

They also made a magic square for the moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars ect ect

But 666 represents the sun, the highest god and his number.
The sum of the lesser 36 gods were each assigned a number from 1 to 36 these also represented the constellations "stars"
The sum of 1+2+3+4 up to 36 = 666 which they assigned to the sun.

The priest wore a medallion with this magic square and number on it.

Perhaps I did not explain this right. The number 666 refers rto a man's name... so.. who has a name that coinsides with 666? To discover this we need to know how to number a man's name. say like...

terry=5 glen=4 weaver=6 = 546
Terry = t=20 e=5 r=18 r=18 4=25 20+5+18+18=25=86
Glen = g=7 l=12 e=5 n=14 7+12+5+14=38
Weaver= w=23 e-5 a=1 v=22 e=5 r=18 23+5+1+22+5+18=74
86+38+74=198

or roman numerials.... c=100 v=5 L=50 i=1 x=10 etc....
Calvin = 100+50+5+1 = 156

I have seen it displayed (for a second) that Caesar nero's name added to 666 - but was never shown ANY proof nor how they arrived at this.

Nero was a beast and it is well documented. He murdered his parents, wife, brother, aunt, and many others close to him. He was a torturer, a homosexual rapist and a sodomite. He even devised a kind of game where he covered himself in a wild animal skin, bound out of a cage and attacked men and women who were tied up to a stake and tear out their private parts.

The early churches and the Jews were being persecuted by Nero Caesar. As a Jew, John would have converted his name to Hebrew, Neron Kesar, and then added up the numbers of the letters. They equaled 666.

He fits both ways, as a number and a beast.

Numbers in the book of Revelation are extremely important as symbols. Six is no different. It comes from the book of Genesis (specifically), being described as the number of man it is the number of the day on which man was made (the sixth day). It is also a day of work as God did not rest until the seventh day. Six is the time of man fulfilling his purpose (God blesses man and gives him his mandate). When he does this he is supposed to move on then to the sabbath rest (that is, the perfect provision of God, "it is done!"), through final judgment (to make sure the end result matches the purpose deignated at the beginning). The Genesis 1 creation is also separated into sets of three (forming and filling), with the seventh day standing apart as a day of final judgment (everything is "very good"). Each set of three is a period of specific kinds of work (a time or season) being done. By making the mark of the beast 3 sixes, the work of man fulfilling his purpose is incomplete. Entering final judgment in this incomplete state will prevent man from entering the sabbath rest (seven). Christ is the sabbath rest for us because He entered that rest and we enter only because He has entered (that is, through Him). The OT discusses angels marking those who are destined for salvation, this would be no different as Christ says (in the book of Revelation) He will write His name on those who are saved. This is akin to the blood of the lamb being placed on the door posts of Israelite homes in Egypt. As well, the damned are also marked for destruction. All of them, not just one because they will not repent and return to God. Therefor they will be destroyed in the final judgment because they do not meet the standards established by God in the beginning.

Shabbat shalom, terry.

I did a little research for you and found this:


In both ancient Greek and Hebrew, letters also represented numerals (as they do in Latin), their values assigned according to the order of the alphabet, alpha and aelph, for example, having the numerical value of 1. By adding these values, words could be represented as the sum of their numbers. This literation of numbers and numeration of letters was known as isopsephism by the Greeks and gematria by the Jews (which, in cabalistic practice, has been used to interpret Hebrew scripture). If the Greek spelling of Nero Caesar (Neron Kaisar) is transliterated into Hebrew (nrwn qsr), the numerical equivalent is 666.
You can find it at http://penelope.uchicago.edu/~grout/encyclopaedia_romana/gladiators/nero.html. The article goes into much more. It's a pretty good read, but that's how Neron Kaesar in Hebrew: "Nrwn Qsr" can be calculated as "666."

Nero Caesar Neron Kaisar nrwn qsr ok... this may be valid but I have problems with it. See if we alter spelling... change to Greek then Hebrew or vice-versa we may be able to make allot of different names add up to 666 or 616 or 681 as some even question the number itself. Thanks I can add this to the lists for discovery, but nothing has show definate routing from the name to the number as of yet.
