Gematria - Sevens and Twelves

all right and welcome welcome to this session of the biblos network we we've got some what i think is some good stuff for you today we've received a lot of feedback from from a lot of you who have texted us and for those that are interested in texting questions or support or insights to us you can do that at 919-899-4142 and if it's your first time texting put biblos in the at the top of it and we'll know what that references will know to be able to connect with you that way it helps us on our end so 919-899-4142 you can text the biblus network and we will respond to questions and we'll we'll talk about some good stuff so i'm excited about a lot of the things that are transpiring uh we recently had brother jesse golendo dr jesse galindo who is the pastor of the spanish work here in durham and who is a leader in the hispanic community we got a ton of feedback from you guys on that there's a lot of amazing latino brothers and sisters out there that are excited about the direction that we're going so i can't wait to provide great leadership material for the hispanic community around the world so i'm i'm really i think god's doing some good things there but one of the things that you have asked about and so many have asked about it that i just decided to take the time and share it with you today and just go on record with it and hopefully be a help to somebody i want to talk to you today about gematria i want to talk to you about the hebrew concept of gematria american people are not that familiar with it and many of you are but but also the majority are not and and people who study hebrew and greek they they do know and are aware of the idea of gematria and some of them make the mistake of dismissing it they they don't give it the the credibility that it deserves and the truth is you will never understand the ancient mind unless you come to grips with with the idea so i figured i'd take about 30 or 45 minutes here today and dive straight into it because it it's well worth your time to to get acquainted with the topic so what is gematria it's the idea in hebrew and greek that in the hebrew alphabet and the greek alphabet letters have numbers so in the hebrew alphabet the first letter that we would call a and in that alphabet is aleph has the number one it has the same value so a and one are together in hebrew and then two and b and so on and they correspond to one another now in english we don't have that but in those ancient languages they do and they call it gematria it comes from the same root word as geometry and it has to do with numbers and whenever you talk about numbers in the bible people they have different reactions to it the most typical reaction is that they're dismissive they say yeah yeah yeah well we don't have time for hocus pocus let's let's move on to the the real stuff and that's a typical observation from a an empirical observationist society we're western educated people we are we're not raised with those concepts and those ideas and so it's easy to dismiss that and to dismiss the idea of shadows and types that is a grave error that theologians fall into the trap of dismissing it and and they miss a lot of the richness and the texture of the bible so we'll talk more about that later too but and if you want to know more about that you can look at the lineup online bible study that we have you can access it through the bible network and it's a great tool for winning the lost and increasing your bible knowledge and understanding our first one has had several thousand views and and it would i think it'd be well worth your time to understand shadows and types too but jamaitria is all throughout the bible and you know people's reaction to it it ranges from dismissive to just they just don't know about it they're not aware of it they're not taught what it means and so today hopefully i can take a little time and i can share with you a little bit about what it means now before i talk about what it does mean let's talk about what it doesn't mean it is not numerology gematria is not numerology numerology is kind of um a subjective way of using numbers and you can get so deep into numbers that you get the bible code when dr jeremy painter was here with with me and we talked about that he referenced that you can get any number if you do enough addition and subtraction and multiply it by this and divide it by this and and somehow when it all it's all said and done you get hitler or you get elon musk or you get mussolini or ronald reagan and there's a lot of people that they saw that ronald had six letters and reagan had six letters and they saw six six and they went ah look at there there's the beginning of 666. and so ronald reagan was the antichrist until he wasn't and then yeah people have a lot of ideas about it they put numbers together and there's you know the idea of conspiracy theories and and so people think that it's worthless and they throw the baby out with the bath water and it's a mistake because there's a lot of rich scriptural material that that will really help in your in your quest to understand the bible so have you ever wondered why the number seven continually crops up in the bible or the number 12 or the number 40 or the number 70. and even the number 1000 [Music] those numbers continually crop up over and over and over and then people will say well you know what six is the devil's number because because of 666 and seven must be god's number that's god's perfect number and that's their way of trying to put some kind of significance on on why it keeps happening well it's a lot bigger than that a lot broader than that but we will talk about where they come from um so let's start out with the number seven you'll find out and i'll deal with the idea of 7 and 12 because those are over and over and over in the bible they're repeated over and over and this is not just in the bible this is actually in all reality twelves and sevens our world is actually built on twelves and sevens and what i mean by that is the seven days in the week and the 12 hours of the day the 24 hours of the day the 12 months of the year our planets rotate and we measure that time on 7s and 12s the exact same numbers that are located in the bible and god does things for a reason he does them by by the concept of ancient wisdom one place in the bible called it hidden wisdom and so instead of looking at it in the terms of our modern uh scientific and empirical viewpoint let's look at it through the eyes of the ancients and let's see what they saw and it'll become a lot more clear first of all the reason why seven is repeated over and over and over again one of the reasons is because it's in heaven the bible says that there are seven lamps that john saw in the book of revelation and they are the seven spirits of god that are before his throne so everything we do on earth is first found in heaven and and the goal of every christian should be that god's will should be done on earth as it is in heaven and so every church that should be the goal every man or woman in their marriage and their family that should be the goal it should be on earth as it is in heaven and there are places that that this happened god told moses to to make things according to the pattern that god showed to moses in the mount so moses saw things in heaven moses saw similar things to what john saw and what daniel saw and when he did he took the time to write it down and he saw something in heaven that he then duplicated in the tabernacle and so that's why you see seven golden candle sticks because he saw seven lamps and it's an amazing idea but the earthly sanctuary was patterned after the heavenly sanctuary and hebrews 9 10 and 11 it's very clear that the earthly patterns of things was made after what the bible calls the figures of the true sanctuary figures of the true and so there was an original pattern a blueprint that they pulled this from and moses brings it down here to earth so you see seven candlesticks and you see 12 loaves of bread in the tabernacle well all of that has its roots in gematria there's a reason why that happened so just go through the bible and look at all the sevens god creates the world in seven days according to genesis and um i always you know when it comes time to talk about it on camera i struggle to pull up all the instances but there's so so many of them joshua he marches around the wall seven times and of jericho the the boy that is raised from the dead by the prophet he sneezes seven times naaman dips seven times in the jordan river i mean why this arbitrary number well this it's because the pattern is in the heavens why does abraham bring seven lambs to abimelech when he makes his covenant with him um and you could probably come up with a lot more than i'm coming up with right now but over and over and over seven why does jesus you know when peter comes to jesus why does peter say lord how many times should i forgive my brother seven times and and jesus says back to him i say unto you seventy times seven why why that number and there's a big big reason why and we'll talk about that um because it is the seven spirits of god that are before his throne you'll see this in isaiah chapter 11 one two and three the bible says the spirit of the lord would be upon the servant of the lord that's that's god's spirit upon jesus christ and it would be a rod out of the stem of jesse and god would give the spirit of wisdom and understanding and counsel and might and knowledge and the fear of the lord and when you look at that it's first the spirit of the lord the main trunk and then it's six applications of that spirit of the lord and that's seven so whenever there's the lamp that brings light to darkness it's in that seven fold configuration that those traits that are in the one spirit of god corinthians teaches that there's one spirit but there's many administrations of that one spirit well that seven seven-ness is found in heaven and so it carries with it the idea first of all a work of the spirit it is a sovereign divine supernatural work of the spirit you can't do it by yourself god's got to do it it's by the spirit of god and the second thing that it is is um it's related to is completeness god finishes the earth in seven days and um name and dip seven times this is where our sabbaths come from you know in the old testament the concept of the sabbath was on the seventh day you will rest because the lord gave the example of rest they go so far with it in the bible that pentecost is built on sevens there would be seven days of rest on the seventh day would be a sabbath and then there would be seven sabbaths which is 49 days and once those 49 days were accomplished on the 50th day after the passover lamb was was sacrificed seven sabbaths after that there would be a rejoicing in the feast of pentecost or what the jews called shavat and that was seven sevens that's where pinty the 50 comes from that 50th day following that so that was pentecost it's also where we get the idea of the jubilee year um that in the seven years the land would rest in israel well after seven sevens 49 years then on the 50th year all land would return back to the original inheritors all people would be restored the promises of god would be given back and things that people had become indebted for and they would be redeemed in the year of jubilee so the whole thing's built on sevens pentecost is built on sevens jubilee is built on sevens and so it's the idea of a completed work and it's the idea that it is of the spirit and that's why it's in the bible over and over and over again um so how does that apply well there's actually a concept in the hebrew world that it's gonna sound funny when i say it but when i say it it is there feel free to look it up you can look this up in any strong's exhaustive concordance but the the word seven is the same word for oath in hebrew it means covenant seven is the number of covenant it's a work of the spirit it's a completed work and the idea is that it's finished it's done it is accomplished just as as sure as god finished the earth the heavens and the earth the heaven and the earth then it's that sure and so when naaman did that it's a sure work when the boy sneezed seven times it's a sure work pentecost not only is it sevens but uh it's multiplied sevens now here's a concept for you that is worth your time this is why joseph in his dream or uh yeah and as he interprets pharaoh's dream he sees seven healthy cows and seven withered cows come up out of the nile river he also sees seven healthy ears of corn and seven withered ears of corn that that overtake them same idea same concept it's seven sevens and it is a it's a work of the spirit it's a completed work and joseph says something very interesting to pharaoh go there and read that when he's talking to pharaoh he's interpreting the dream he says not only is this a dream from god but the dreams are one and because god doubled it it means it will surely come to pass so the idea of seven and the doubling of the sevens means to god it's a sure thing and in doubling things or repeating things in the bible is the ancient way of underlining or highlighting something to put great emphasis on it so whenever god would say something twice it was his way of saying pay attention it's actually the verbal equivalent of shouting so when it says verily verily and when he called their names abraham abraham isaac isaac when he called those names twice god was that's covenantal language and covenantal dynamics and so when god brings seven sevens it's it's opening the door to the idea of pentecost that not only is it a spirit-filled work not only is it a sure thing but it's covenants compounding and it will surely come to pass so pharaoh's the fact that pharaoh had the dream twice joseph said that means it will surely come to pass so these are little little nuggets and gems that you find in the bible that this is why it was written this way well the whole concept you see it in the idea of seven because in the ancient world they had a concept that because the seven also means covenant the word is shiva or sheba that's the word seven it's also the word for oath or covenant and when abraham brought seven lambs to abimelech to to end the strife and to bring peace they were making a a covenant with one another he brought seven lambs and what he was saying was this is of god it is a work of the spirit and it is done it is finished and so they called that place beersheba or and they dug a well they they had a well there and that well was given and covenant there as a as a token the way and it was called the well of the sevens or the well of the oath this is where abraham and abimelech buried the hatchet signed the paper put it in writing however you want to say it in modern vernacular this was the idea of the sevens and and the idea is furthered to the point where those ancient people when you did that they called it sevening yourself i know that sounds weird because we think of seven as a number and when you seven yourself you're if you're making it a verb you're making it an action that you do but when you entered into covenant you were sevening yourself so when god could not swear by any one greater than himself so he swear by himself uh he made an oath he made a covenant god sevened himself it is sure it is finished it is a work of the spirit and it will most surely come to pass so the well of sevens beersheba all of that you can look all that up it is there and it is why it's why that number is repeated over and over and over again it's also why um we forgive 70 times seven seventy times seven why such a strange number does that mean that you know after 490 times that you can finally get your revenge on 491 that's you know 491 i'm gonna punch him in the nose that's that's not what that means what it means is it's a gematria concept that the lifespan of a man or a woman is 70 years the scripture tells us that that that god would limit man's years and that the lifespan of a man would be 70 years and that if by reason of strength he could continue and he would live to 80 years but be thankful for the 70 years that you get and so that's the life of a man or a woman so when you forgive 70 times seven in in the cons in the term gematria terminology what that means is a lifetime of spirit-filled covenantal forgiveness it's a way of saying you're going to do this your whole life you're not going to have a limit to it but you'll do it over and over and over again 70 means the life of a man or a woman seven means oath covenant and completion spirit filled work and so when god's spirit fills you he'll give you the power to walk in covenant walk in his new testament and you'll forgive everybody for the rest of your life that is what 70 times 7 means and you go on and on and on you know he cast seven devils out of mary magdalene um seven of unclean animals i'm sorry seven clean animals that were on the ark i just repeated repeat it over and over and over daniel's 70th week and the fact that it was weeks and three and a half years and three and a half years those sevens play such a central role in the bible and it all boils down to gematria so that's why you're going to see that over and over again when when you get to the book of revelation you see a lamb that has seven eyes and he has seven horns you see seven churches of asia you see seven candlesticks because they are on the uh the seven golden candlesticks that's why moses built those candlesticks in an earthen form and fashion and and in that the lamb has seven horns and seven eyes that means it's perfect vision and perfect uh power the horns represented power the eyes represented vision and um so jesus had perfect vision and perfect power that's very unlike the the people of this world the judges of this world um we judge and perfectly we judge like a man but the bible says god is not a man that he should lie and and he doesn't judge if you keep reading in isaiah 11 it says he will not judge after the sight of his eyes so he's not just judging by what he sees and you can't pull the wool over his eyes because he has seven eyes and he sees all things and he has perfect balance and perfect symmetry so when when the woman that is caught in the very act of adultery is brought to jesus they're not just bringing him to a two-eyed judge they're bringing him to a lamb that has seven eyes and seven horns so not only does he see it he sees it as it truly is and not only does he have power to condemn and judge that like moses did but he has power perfectly balanced and executed power he sees all things and so when that lamb when that judge from heaven saw that woman and and knew her dire condition they said should we kill her moses says killer but the lamb who saw so deeply and had perfect balance in his power and authority he said let him that is without sin cast the first stone he stoops over and he writes in the dust a lot of people wondered what he wrote there but he stooped over and he wrote in the dust and when he stands back up they began at the oldest to the youngest to departing to leave he says to the woman where are your accusers and they were gone go thy way and sin no more jesus wasn't there like a like a partial or biased authority but jesus is there as the judge of all heaven and earth and he saw whatever it was that brought her to that that crucial point in her life if it caught her in the very act where's the guy how did you catch him in the act and not get the guy why aren't you still why aren't you stoning the guy the old testament is very clear that both would be put to death but they've somehow let the guy go and and and then what about her past what about her life circumstances she didn't just get there just any old way but but there were circumstances and he saw those circumstances and he knew how to apply judgment like heaven would apply judgment i'm so glad god is a he's a just god and he sees things as they really are god truly sees and he sets his people free so take heart you're you're you're being judged by the perfect judge of heaven and of earth um now so that's that's one perspective on gematria now there is another perspective and that is another concept here another number i should say that is the number 12 you will see that number over and over and over again in the bible 12 12 12 12 patriarchs the 12 which became the 12 tribes of israel and then you have 12 apostles and god was so serious about it that when judas commits suicide they cast lots and they choose matthias because god wanted to keep that number 12. on the day of pentecost peter stood up with the 11 the bible is very careful to say that that there was a completion of 12 there and so what does that mean what is what do the twelves mean well they mean a great deal um because in heaven again our pattern comes from heaven there's four and twenty elders and i believe very strongly that the four and twenty elders are the old testament patriarchs and the new testament apostles that is why the names of the apostles are in the foundation of heaven and the names of the disciples or the names of the patriarchs are in the gates there'd be four gates and um and they'd and there'd be three names over each one and so that makes 12 and so we have 12 and 12. and i find it very interesting that the apostles names are in the foundation and the patriarchs names are in the gates isn't that interesting because in the human world foundations come before gates you can't build gates without a foundation but why wouldn't it say that the patriarchs were in the foundation and the apostles were over each gate why why why aren't the patriarchs in the foundation and the apostles over each gate why why is it backwards why are the apostles in the foundation in time in chronology the the patriarchs came first they're the old testament testament patriarchs in time they came first and the apostles came later but the bible says that the apostles are first in the foundation what that means is jesus always meant to put his his new testament plan into place and so the old testament would be built upon that the end would be spoken from the beginning rather than the beginning to the end this is not a chronological thing strictly this is something that was done from the foundation of the world so jesus is the lamb slain from the foundation of the world and and we see that the plan of redemption is the foundation upon which the whole old and new testament is built so the disciples are first the patriarchs are then in the gates praise god and then that they're in the gates that means that's how you're going to get into the building so that was the entry point for the old testament saints and then you're standing on the revelation of new testament so this is the idea of the twelves and you see it you see it repeatedly in the bible um i'm trying to think of some right now as i i go through it um when when you have elijah facing the false prophets on mount carmel you see one of the first things he does is he asks for um a bullock and he's going to sacrifice it and he takes the 12 stones and it says there in in kings it says that each stone was for the tribe of israel one tribe of israel so he takes 12 stones representing that that this is each tribe is represented here and that's the first 12. well then he then takes 12 buckets of water and he asks that they be poured over the sacrifice 12 and 12 4 and 20. that pattern is seen here and what that means in metaphor and shadow and type is that the old testament 12 and the new testament 12 would come together and fire would fall it's an example of pentecost and if you want to really get down to it it's an example of acts 2 38 because the bullock is death and the water is burial and the fire is pentecost so you're going to overcome jezebel and you're going to overcome the false prophets by the acts 2 38 message repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of jesus christ for the remission of sins you shall receive the gift of the holy ghost right there it is twelves two sets of twelves that brings fire that overcomes the false prophets that cast down corrupt governor governorship and leadership kingship so the idea of the 12s is right there and i find it also very interesting that the second 12 the 12 buckets of water are liquid they are of the spirit they are movable they are hard to get a hold of one would be concrete or stone rather and the other would be a liquid application seeming to say the old testament would be physical in the new testament would be spirit driven and so one is stone one is water but put them together and fire falls so that's the idea there well you keep on taking that concept of the twelves and the whole old testament opens up um when when joshua comes over from the wilderness to canaan to the promised land as they're crossing the river jordan at gilgal he tells the people that i want one man from every tribe 12 men to get a stone and you're going to put those stones in the water as we cross over there's going to be 12 stones in the water on the the bed of the river and if you read it closely he also commands them to put 12 stones on the bank when they come out because the day would come when the children of israel there would be a generation that would rise up that never saw the wonders of egypt being humbled and moses bringing them out in the exodus and the wonders of water coming out of the rock and manna falling from heaven and and all the great marvels that god did to deliver the people and so there would be a generation that would rise that did not have this context and they would ask the question what meaneth these stones and that conversation what mean if these stones happen in the context of the jordan river and so the beauty of that is god was sitting in motion of visible 12 on the bank and an invisible 12 in the river he was putting two sets of twelve together that would bring you out that would deliver you that would set you free that would bring you into the promised land and here in the new testament it takes two sets of twelve it takes the old testament and the new testament to bring you out and set you free so what meaneth these stones well what a powerful statement because i don't think that it's just a bunch of kids asking about 12 rocks that they see but but i think everybody needs a revelation of the 212s and to my knowledge that ancient um group of people saw those two those two sets of twelve when they came into the promised land and we see in the scripture that we know of two other people that saw these sets of twelve the first one was elijah when he also came to gilgal and they parted the waters same place and they crossed over i believe that he saw the 12 stones in the riverbed and i believe he knew of the 12 stones on the bank he had a revelation of the two sets of 12. maybe that's why there were 12 stones on carmel and 12 buckets of water god was laying in type and shadow the revelation of the old and new testament out and then when elisha later um he parts the water as well and parting the water is a is a euphemism it's a metaphor for revelation to reveal the hidden to show things that are not easily visible to the natural eye but when the waters part you see things that you did not see the liquid parts the the insubstantial parts and you see the purpose of god so he saw that there would be another 12 not just an original 12 and put them both together and it is the pathway to the promised land praise god so now that opens up a whole idea because i actually believe that's why naaman was healed because you have in naaman's healing from leprosy it's a shadow and type of being healed from sin naaman's a leper he is dying and that leprosy has no way it can be halted except supernaturally so he goes and dips seven times in the river but not only does he dip seven times in the river it's that same river that those 12 stones are in and that the 12 stones are on the bank this is why you can't go to syria to the i forget what the names are far par and the rivers of syria the beautiful rivers can't go there these this river the jordan river is the only one with the sevens and the twelves the two sets of twelves which are a picture of heaven you have there a picture of heaven you have um the seven spirits and you have the four and twenty elders you also have that in dipping seven times and 24 stones you're getting a picture of on earth as it is in heaven and that was a place where there was a juxtaposition of the sevens and the twelves and they came together and naaman was healed of leprosy so just like the fire fell with with um elijah then you have the the healing of naaman that is there with those sevens and those twelves um and and if you wanna see the sevens and twelves at carmel the bible says that there were twelve stones and there were seven buckets of water and then it says when it was over that the servant of the prophet went and prayed seven times and when he prayed seven times on the seventh time he saw a cloud the size of a man's hand and elijah said get you up for i hear a sound of abundance of rain so that's all a metaphor for on earth as it is in heaven so that happened at carmel it happened at the jordan river and that's just a little glimpse into the world of gematria and how it coincides here's another one and i'll do this quickly because i'm running out of time um i believe that this same principle is seen in the woman with the issue of blood have you ever wondered why the bible takes pains to say that that jesus was on his way to heal a little girl and this little girl she died and jesus is on his way to her house and it tells you her age she was 12 years old what an amazing thing isn't it amazing too that jesus is 12 years old when he confounds the priests and the scribes in the temple it's amazing he's operating in that authority and that governorship of the twelves and that's what 12 or 12s represent it represents authority and governorship 12 patriarchs 12 tribes it's the authority of the old testament and the new testament so jesus is 12 and the little girl it tells you her age 12 what what an arbitrary little number where does that come from well it comes from gematria because not only is he on his way to heal her and then ultimately raise her from the dead but a woman stops him on the way and jesus detours to the woman and when he detours to the woman the bible tells you that she had an issue of blood for 12 years you see two sets of 12 here in this little portion of scripture what a fascinating idea and i find it very very amazing that i believe it's in this place in that same area that the scripture tells us that in that place he cast seven devils out of mary magdalene so sevens and twelves crop up prominently again and again and again um well what does that mean well i believe that that is a metaphor god uses it to illustrate what he's going to do in his kingdom and that is that he is on his way to save the younger girl when the older woman stops him i believe that's a way of saying that god was on his way to save all the gentiles the gentiles are the younger girl and they're dead in trespasses and sins she's the the younger 12. and an older 12 stops him on his way there meaning israel is actually a detour to god's final cosmic purpose god's intent is not just israel in the flesh but it is the whole world he wants to deliver the whole world so he's going to save the second 12. um i'll call it the gentile 12. or the whole world 12 and they're dead in trespasses and sins he's going to raise them from the dead but on the way it is a woman that has an issue of blood for 12 years she stops him virtue flows when she touches the hem of his garment and she is delivered i believe that is israel who has an issue of blood now there's a lot there that i could unpack but for sake of time i won't but but you see two sets of twelve and the reason why i say that's israel and it is um the church the gentiles and jews of the new testament is because it's two sets of twelve and we see this in the song of solomon when the bible takes great pains to talk about the beloved of god and he's talking initially about god's covenant people which is israel but then towards the end of it we read the scripture that tells us that we have a little sister and she hath no breasts meaning she's immature she's not fully developed yet and one can almost see the the eyes of god looking to the future and seeing a younger girl a covenantal people arising they are not there yet they were in their infancy they were just beginning to grow but god saw her in the song of solomon and so this girl that jesus heals is typified in that she's 12 years old as a church age as a time of redemption i should say a new testament age and the the older woman is the old testament age and it's the first twelve the two twelves working together and jesus deals with both of them now before you say i'm crazy and you you feel that that might be a little out there consider also when jesus fed the multitude he feeds the five thousand is it any coincidence that it's five loaves and two fish it's seven and is it any coincidence that twelve disciples took up 12 baskets full sevens and twelves ladies and gentlemen heaven on earth see that they'll make it according to the pattern that i showed thee in the mount it is there it is in your bible that's basically a little snapshot of what gematria looks like and when you see that in the bible i hope it helps we could go on i need to take another session and talk to you about 144 000 because that is 12 times 12 times a thousand and so there's people that think that that's going to be some super secret rapture force at the end of time and other people jehovah's witnesses thought that that meant them there's only going to be 144 000 well that worked fine until they grew past charles taz russell's initial little group and when they got to 144 0001 they had to redo their theology because hyperliteralism destroys the beauty of the scripture and so it's not a super secret force at the end of time it is a group of people who would be 12 by 12. and i believe it's god's covenant people and they are juxtaposed with old and new testament two sets of twelves that's 144 and that leads us to a thousand a thousand is a whole other geometric term that we'll get into lord willing it's more prophetic eschatological that's a big fancy word that means prophecy stuff but it's it's you see that 144 as the multiples of 12. all of that has its roots in gematria and this is why that the foundation of of the new jerusalem is going to be 12 000 by 12 000 by 12 000 and you know if that's a hyper if that's a literal building which is a hyperliteral concept then it's gonna be pretty big and it's gonna it's gonna the height of it's gonna stretch all the way above the international space station you're talking about over a mile in the air so for people that think that's talking about physical measurements you're missing the point it is a metaphoric number and and it means 12 by 12. it means it is in alignment with the scripture it's in symmetry with the old and new testament we're built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets jesus christ himself as the chief cornerstone and the sevens and twelves are the pattern seen in heaven that are brought to earth and are seen repeatedly in the scripture it's in your days and your months and your weeks and your years it's what causes the planets to rotate around one another the very cosmos itself is built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets praise god heavenly concepts brought to earth that's a snapshot of gematria and i hope that is a help to you and a blessing to you today god bless you and i look forward to talking to you next time
