However, gematria is essential to Kabbalah, the Jewish mystical tradition. The very basis of the kabbalistic cosmological system rests on the belief that God created the universe through the power of the Hebrew letters along with their numerical values. Indeed the many names of God and their permutations in Kabbalah have numerical values that are believed to contain potent power. Whereas numerology is the study of numbers as they are to decipher their symbolic meaning. Each of the 22 letters in the Hebrew alphabet is correlated with a specific number. Gematria (from Gr. γεωμετρία) is the computation of individual letters, words, or entire sentences utilizing their numerical equivalence. Some people believe that the words and ideas in the Torah may be connected with or understood from the numerical values and relationships. It is alleged that the numerical word value is not unintentional, but rather prearranged. The small number Hebrew gematria closely aligns with patterns in music. In this article, it’s obvious that the harmonic series matches it as a repeated pattern of ten; ten also being the first partial of the next set. I believe it’s possible to determine the frequency (Hz) of Hebrew letters and words. I have an idea of what that will look like but you’ll have to wait for the next blog post for that information. Since c200 BC each letter has also functioned as a numeral. Each string of letters (the words, in this case) represents a number obtained by summing the letter values. The fourth method, Mispar Katan Mispari, integral reduced value, reduces the total value of the word to a single-digit number. If the sum exceeds nine, then the integer values of the total are added together again and again until a single-digit number is received.
