What is the proper method in discovery of a man's name through his number? I tried several methods but they never added up correctly if we accept Nero as an anti-christ.

This is the best explanation I've found about the mark of the beast which I believe is the zebeba.terry said:What is the proper method in discovery of a man's name through his number? I tried several methods but they never added up correctly if we accept Nero as an anti-christ.
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."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.
