"TABERNACLE-OLOGY " & "THE KORAN CODE"

TABERNACLE-OLOGY (www.madewithouthands.com)

Has anyone visited the above website? It's an attempt to find gematric
significance in Biblical numbers, the numbers that are given as the
dimensions of the tabernacle in the wilderness as recorded in the
Pentateuch. It also attempts to prove that the gematric values of the
Hebrew word(s) for "Adam" and "diamond" prove the divine inspiration of
the King James Bible.

I am not endorsing the above site, just mentioning it since Vernon, a
member of the ASA forum, has his own "Bible code" based on the gematric
values of the first 7 words in Genesis.

THE "KORAN CODE"

I also found mention of a "Koran code" on the internet, though its
discoverers should probably spend more time juggling more numbers and come
up with more coincidences.

Devout Muslims have recently come up with various "Quran Codes." Not to
mention various mathematical formula used to prove the truth of Bahaism (a
religious offshoot of Islam):

Beyond Probability; GOD'S MESSAGE IN MATHEMATICS
This discussion would be unprofitable if it did not lead us to appreciate
the wisdom of our Creator...

ULTIMATE MATHEMATICS
Assume you have a pair of two-digit numbers, ab and cd such that a, b, c
and d are nonzero. If ab + cd = 100, then a + b + c + d = 19

AUTHENTICATING MATHEMATICAL CODE
An intricate mathematical code, far beyond the ability of human
intelligence, has been discovered imbedded in the fabric of the scripture.

Diamond vs. Glass
Does the Qur'an have miraculous numerical properties? I certainly believe
so. A reflection on 74:30~31 will begin to tell the story.

Mathematical Miracle in Lexical Harmony

produce a The Quran like this, they would surely fail, no matter how much
assistance they lent one another.”

Rejecting God's Signs and Support in the Name of God
There are some who try to use volumes of senseless rhetoric to deny
facts/truth/knowledge of any observed phenomenon. As if truth itself is
dependent upon the excuses one seeks to deny it.

FARRAKHAN, CABALA, BAHA'I, AND 19
Skeptical Inquirer; 3/1/1997; Gardner, Martin
Religious text, especially the Bible and the Koran, are believed by some
groups to contain hidden messages that can be broken through codes based
on numbers. This is the concept behind a process called gematria. Muslim
Louis Farrakhan supports the mystique role of numbers in his faith, giving
particular attention to the importance of the number 19. A movement called
the Baha'i also believes in the sacredness of the number 19.
The two greatest sacred books of world religions are the Bible and the
Koran. Given the belief that God directed the writing of each, it is not
hard to understand... [full article not online]
