Stone arrays a complex vision of numerical and alphabetical methodology, promising a deeper comprehension of God's identity hidden within time-honored scripture. This mystical journey begins with the concept of permutation, opening the way for revivifying the wording and interpretation of scriptures cited. The mystics and rebbes of Judaism themselves perceived a numerical value system that adheres, Stone states, to the scriptural alphabet. The Holy Bible's book of Revelation is aligned herein with the system that Stone has utilized to identify the Lord.
Because God chose to conceal his identity from his followers, diligent effort is required to decipher the alphabet into numeric codes, the whole promising an expanded realization of unique, distinctive divinity. Embarking on this quest, linking letters to numbers (A being 1), and using the permutation system, Stone presents seventy-seven as God's individual standard, matching with the names attributed to God and establishing the proof of their absolute connection. Offering evidence based on this method, many notable titles attributed to, for example, the "Everlasting GOD" and "All-Knowing Father," will be shown as permuting consistently to Stone's seventy-seven. The formula is utilized not only in the Book of Revelation, but also in Psalms and Isaiah, and references notable scriptural personages such as Abraham, Isaac, and Joseph.
Stone, who has a bachelor of arts degree and served in the United States Air Force, offers his remarkable theory regarding God's true identity for the benefit of all devout seekers. His readers will doubtless wish to embark on a similar, individualized path to explore the correlation between the personal and the divine. Employing the permutation process as illustrated through a multitude of literary patterns and corresponding numerals, Stone's well-considered thesis presents and promotes promising guidelines for biblical study and group discussion.
