Palmoni: The Numerals of Scripture by Milo Mahan
“The Bible to the early church was not a book merely; it was… a living creature (infused) in every part with a mysterious, manifold and superabundant life… And as a Divine work differs from a human chiefly in those minutia which lie beneath the surface… so, the early Christians argued, it must be with the Divine Word. They confidently expected to see “wondrous things” in it. And the more closely they scrutinized it, the more marks of the supernatural they professed to see therein.
Hence to them the “history” of the Bible was not mere history; its “facts,” not mere facts; its “arithmetic,” not mere arithmetic. Each word, each letter, each cipher appeared to them transfigured in an atmosphere of the supernatural, the center of a vast throng of spiritual associations.
