👉 Biblical math, often referred to as "apostolic numerology" or "biblical arithmetic," is a practice that interprets numbers in the Bible as holding significant symbolic and spiritual meaning beyond their literal numerical value. Proponents argue that certain numbers, like 7, 12, 3, and 10, are seen as divine or sacred due to their appearances in creation stories, religious laws, and prophetic visions. For example, the number 7 is often associated with perfection or completeness, seen in the seven days of creation, the seven heavens and earth, and the seven seals in the Book of Revelation. The 12 tribes of Israel represent unity and completeness, while 10 is considered a perfect number in some traditions. These interpretations are not universally accepted and are often viewed through the lens of symbolic significance rather than mathematical precision, but they reflect a deep reverence for numbers as tools to understand divine truths.
