Bmidbar 2012 Numbs. 1:1 4: 20.

. In order to get started, lets build a proper foundation for understanding this Parsha. The title is where well begin and we will sprinkle in some gematria to add a little flavor! In the Wilderness, , from #4057, midbar, translated wilderness, but, it can also mean mouth. This stems from the Mem prefix which indicates, from or out of, (an open womb) and Dabar, meaning word. The mouth as the origin of the word. Curiously, the gematria of the phrase, Bmidbar, equals 248, the same as a familiar Hebrew word namely: Abraham. It can also infer to boil up, to foam, to be troubled, as in waters (the womb?). It is also the value of #7358, rehem, which means, womb, or belly, the place where a fetus develops and exits at birth. Incidentally, since this is the 118th chapter of Torah, this number also has relevance here: 118 is the value of: #1148, Bniynuw, Our Son. In addition, there are 70 Hebrew letters st in the 1 verse pertaining to the House of Jacob! 70 is written with the Hebrew letter Ayin to see, perceive, this enables us to see Abraham as the Father of Nations and this seems to infer that YHVH is bringing Israel to the place where the Seed can be implanted into the womb and at a time of troubling Jacobs Trouble bring forth, Beniynuw - Our Son! This is at once prophetic in three areas: 40 years later as Israel enters the Promised Land, at the first coming of Messiah and lastly, at the end of this age during the final Jacobs Trouble. This begins to flesh out a picture of YHVH bringing His Firstborn into the wilderness. Israel was 40 years in the wilderness, Yahshua was 40 days and weve been 40 jubilees (40x50=2000yrs.). Is it possible to link these 40s? I.E. 3x40=120 the number of mans years on the earth Gen. 6:3. It would seem were in the final stage of that prophetic declaration! We also understand that Yahshua, The Firstborn, was the Torah [Scroll] made flesh in the Earth incidentally, each Torah has 248 columns. Our next verse seems to follow this pattern as YHVH commands Moshe to number Israel. He uses 3 distinct Hebrew words that carry this basic meaning. They are as follows: Sum, number, poll.

I.

 Sum, #7218, ro'sh, first, the head, top, summit, the chief; also, to shake. If we rearrange these letters to form Alef-Shin-Resh, asher, it can mean to go straight or forward, to be blessed, happy, a step or path, a persons walk. Number, #4557, micpar, to number or count, from #5608, safar, to count, reckon, scribe, tell. It has the etymological root of Sefer Book, scroll, Torah. There are 42 lines on each of the 248 columns of the Sefer Torah. Another clue hidden by YHVH here is the gematria of this word 380, the same as lashon the tongue, and the dimensions of Noahs Ark! Polls, #1538, gulgoleth, a fem. Noun meaning skull, head, a place for a census, counting the heads. This word is the root of Golgotha, the place where Yahshua is executed. Its gematria is 466, the same as #5497, Sut, Samech-Vav-Tav, meaning garment. It is etymologically the same as the Hebrew word Seth, spelled with a Shin, and the name of the 2nd son of Adam. The word means to appoint another, thus, through Seth the lineage would be reckoned! As we put these clues together were told: From the first, the Beginning the Shaking of Creation, the Path or Walk would be written in Torah and its tongue/seed [Hebrew] hidden in the ARK (#8392, tebah the Tav prefix is 3rd-person, future tense, the Bet-Hey spells bah in her, you shall be in her ) by the One who would exchange His garments, be executed and appointed to reckon or settle the accounts of she who was numbered. The Hebrew language reveals that it is far more than counting heads; rather, YHVH is telling Moshe to RAISE their heads! Lk. 21: 28 lift up your head your redemption draws nigh This has been the plan from the beginning of Creation!

, Breshyith: Bet-Resh = son Alef-Shin = there is one, a foundation, beginning Shin-Yod-Tav = Seth, garment! Who was to be numbered? The gematria of Breshyith is 920, the same as the phrase; Bet hamalkut, The House of The Kingdom. Bet, can mean house, daughter, or wife. Yep, you got it - the Bride! How many are numbered?

II.

Numbers 1:46 tells us of the 11 tribes numbered (Levi is not) the tally is: 603,550. If we add the value of these numbers the total is 19, the same as: #2332, Chavvah, Eve, translated, living, to make alive. It is from #2331, chavah, to announce, to tell, to explain, reveal, display! She becomes the One who will reveal and display this numbering! Israel here functions as EVE! It is quite fascinating that on another occasion after 40 years in the wilderness, they are numbered again, this time the count is 601,730. If we subtract this from our first count, the balance is 1820, the exact number of times we see the NAME - YHVH in Torah. If we add those factors together, the total equals eleven, the number of disorder. Yet, it is connected also to Redemption and restoration. The Sages teach there is 11 days difference between the solar and lunar years. The Sun represents Messiah while the Moon his bride. 11 becomes the bridge, the flesh, the veil, that must be torn, yet repaired by Messiah who comes in the flesh! Ironically, this brings us to the 4th Hebrew word which infers to number: Numbers 1: 19. Number, #6485,

paqad, to attend, to muster, to number, to be needed, to be lacking, missing. It is this word at the heart of #4663, Miphqad, the
gate where the Red Heifer sacrifice occurs. Nehemiah 3: 31 tells us this gate is at: , unto the place of the Nethinims, (temple slave) and of the merchants. However, the Hebrew also says: `Ed witness, testimony, also filthiness, menstruation. Bet house, wife. Netan, to give, bestow, to serve. Rakal, can mean to traffic, a merchant, to slander, but also etymologically similar to the name of Jacobs wife Rachael the mother of Joseph and Benjamin! This gate and the Red Heifer offering, served to Witness the filthiness and niddah condition of the House/Wife, and to give to the one slandered Rachael the one whose sons are MISSING, a counting redemption! Curiously, Miphqad has a gematria of 224, the same as #3386, Yarowach, a new moon, one just coming out of the dark phase the niddah condition!

Later in Numbers 3: 39, we find the total number of the Tribe of Levi to be 22,000. We must ask ourselves, what is the purpose of this tribe. They were/are to serve YHVH and to teach Israel. They were tools. It is no accident, that we see the number 22, the number of the Hebrew letters, the number 1000 is represented by

the Aleph, which as a verb means to teach, learn, as well as, thousand! The Levites become the vehicle through which the Hebrew language of Torah is taught to Israel. As we watch the generation that dies in the Wilderness and their numbers recorded, it is strange that although 5 of the tribes lose numbers, Simeon loses more than half 62.5% of its numbers. Lets examine what may have happened. Simeon, #8095, Shim`own, translated as hearing, it is from the root of Shema, to hear (and obey). A clue to this drop-off in population can be found in Numbers 25: 1 14, where a man from the tribe of Simeon brings a harlot from Midian into the camp at the door of the Tabernacle an affront to Moshe and YHVH, and is killed by Phineas. Look at these names? The man first: Zimri, #2174, Zimriy, it is translated My Music. It is from #2167, zamar, a verb meaning to play an instrument or sing. It is generally associated with STRINGED INSTRUMENTS. Hmmm? Its numeric value is 257, the same as that of Aron the Ark (of the Covenant) and the word Nazar, to consecrate, or vow. Salu, #5543, Calluw, trans. Weighed. It is cognate with words that infer, to forgive (solely by YHVH), forgiveness. It would seem these Sons of Hearing (the Hebrew language) were supposed to Sing these words which would provide forgiveness to those who themselves would hear balance the word, correctly! Yet, in this instance whoredom that sprang from idolatry is brought to the door of the Tabernacle. The same pattern as Gen. 3. In this instance, we see Phinehas intervene in his role as MESSIAH. Phinehas, #6372, Piynchac, translated, mouth of brass. However, there is quite a bit of controversy here: Lets remember that names are prophetic, thus his actions and legacy are clues to what his name means. A better definition would come by looking at the 2 root words again. #6437, Panah, a verb meaning to turn. It involves the face as it turns. To look toward, to turn in a direction. It suggests turning and regarding a person with compassion, to consider. The Chet-Samech root (Chet-Vav-Samech/Kleins)

means to have pity, to spare. This would be consistent with the result of Phinehas actions YHVH turned toward him as a type of Messiah who intervened to turn the Face of YHVH from wrath to compassion. Thus he is given the Covenant of Peace! It is interesting to look at the name from another perspective, as it can be translated Pey Nachash, Mouth of the Serpent! In fact, at the mouth of the Serpent Adam and Eve incur wrath at the Face of YHVH, it is the Manifest Presence of the Father known as the Memra - THE VOICE OF YHVH [TORAH-MESSIAH] who sheds blood (Gen. 3:21) in order to cause YHVH to regard them with compassion! In fact, it is this same MEMRA seen in Gen. 18:1, where Abraham sits with his back against literally, upon the long-lived tree, of Guess who shows up? The VOICE! Back to the numbers!!! Ironically, the final census or head count of Levi before they enter the Promised Land in Numbers 25 gives us 22,200 and supports our position of 22 as representing the number of the Hebrew letters! It is Ps. 22 that reveals the Messiah who is able to provide that very forgiveness to those who would hear! However, if youll note the final tally of Simeons numbers and compare it to the first tally of Levi (Numbers 3:39 22,200) the difference is 200 the Value of the letter Resh head, chief, the First, to NUMBER-SUM, and the word Etsem, #6106, , meaning bones. To number the bones! It is also spelled the same as atsam, meaning to be numerous, mighty. It can also mean to shut! It would seem the Sons of Hearing had their ears shut, until the Head Resh Yahshua numbered, restored the Bones, the House of Israel! This is the same pattern in Jn. 18: 10 where another SIMEON Simon Peter cuts off the ear/hearing, of Malchus (The Hebrew word for Kingdom) the servant of the High Priest, he was a Nethinim temple slave, and Yahshua restores it the ear the Mem womb which is the gate that numbers/measures - the piqad GATE, those of the missing House ONE Rachael - fulfilling Nehemiah 3:31 literally! Now, if you subtract Simeons final tally 22,200 from Levis final tally 22,273, (Numbers 3: 45) the difference is 73. This happens to be the gematria of #245,

Mamre'.

Azanyah, The Ear of Yah!

The Exchange of the Firstborn. III. This causes us to witness another anomaly in Numbers 3: 45 where the Levites are exchanged for the Firstborn of all the other tribes. The difference in the tally? 22,273 -22,000 = 273. For these, a 5-shekel redemption price is set! The total redemption price is 1365 shekels. Why choose the Levites instead? Remember the name means Joined Too One/Echad. They are responsible for the Torah, the Hebrew language. This reestablishes the declaration of Ex. 19:6 and you shall be unto me a kingdom of priests This exposes the importance of the language. For instance, the 5 shekels: 5 is the number of the Hebrew letter Hey to breathe, to reveal. It represents the Hey of YHVH His Breath! Shekel, #8255, sheqel, money, to weigh, measure. Metaphorically, to weigh or measure a person. Its gematria is 430, the number of years in Egypt. The same value as nephesh to breathe, to live! 1365 is a unique number as well. It is a combination of 13 which represents the bride and 105, massah, which means testing, tempting, to prove. Yahshua represents the Shekel, redeeming those who endure the testing! Finally, Numbers 3:17 4:20 deals with the sons of Levi who are now considered The Firstborn. And these were the sons of Levi by their names; Gershon, and Kohath, and Merari. Gershon, #1648, Gershown, translated exiled, it is from #1644, garash, to divorce, expel. The word is first seen in Gen. 3:24, where YHVH drives out the Man and Woman. Kohath, #6955, Qhath, it means to collect or assemble, an Assembly or Congregation, yet is cognate with obedience, to wait for, to expect, to hope. Merari, #4847, Mrariy, the root is the Mem-Resh, mar, to be bitter, rebellious. The Yod appended means my. My bitterness. Our extrapolated definition: Because of My Bitterness (Yahshua drank the bitter cup) I will re-gather My Bride. The One who I drove away and divorced. The Congregation I have waited for.
