You will find in the next pages a detailed list of the features of The Keys to the Bible, but first we want to briefly describe some of its new and unique features.
Advanced code searching and reporting
The Keys to the Bible includes all the decoding features of Bible Codes 2000, plus new ones such as turning the matrix vertical or horizontal, reversing it as a mirror, and drawing a specified area in the matrix for statistical analysis the codes found inside the area. The best new code feature is the automatic production of a 4 page (parameters, findings, matrix information and statistics) report of the found code, which can be printed or saved in Word format. Below is the illustration of the Statistics Page of the report of the Yitzhak Rabin assassination code.
About Gematria
Gematria is a method of exegesis (critical explanation or analysis of a text) used since the time of the Second Temple to derive insights into the sacred writings, to obtain interpretations of the text, or to illustrate a secular matter. The Hebrew language uses its letters to represent numbers. The first nine letters represent the numbers I to 9 respectively; the next 10 letters represent the numbers 10, 20... to 90; and the next four represent 100 to 400.
The cipher alphabet makes possible the method known in Hebrew as gematria. The term gematria is based on the Greek geometria. In talmudic times the rabbis began to mean by it "calculation" in general. In this sense, they used the numerical value of the letters of one word or verse to construct a different word or verse, the numerical value of whose letters equals that of the original passage, in order to give the original verse an added or a different meaning.
For example, in Genesis 32:5, Jacob sends a message to his brother, Esau, saying: I sojourned with Laban. The Hebrew for "I sojourned" is "garti" , yod is 10, tav is 400, resh is 200, and gimmel is 3, adding up to a total of 613, which is the number of commandments specified in the Torah. In other words, the rabbis understood that Jacob was saying: Although I sojourned with Laban, I kept the 613 commandments.
The Book of Revelation in the New Testament uses Gematria to disguise the name of the emperor Nero by writing the Greek form of his name in Hebrew characters, which gives it a total numerical value of 666, (Revelation 13:18).
The Keys to the Bible includes 7 different Gematria methods, plus one additional unique method: User Specified Values, found only in The Keys to the Bible.
Letter substitution
This encoding method, (substituting one letter for another), was used by the prophet Jeremiah to hide his references to Babel. For generations biblical scholars had been baffled by references in the book of Jeremiah to a city called Sheshach. The city was not mentioned anywhere else in the Bible nor in any contemporary document, and yet Jeremiah mentioned it twice, (25:26 and 51:41). Finally, a scholar applied the Letter Substitution decoding method, and discovered that Sheshach was in fact a code word for another very well known city, Babel!
The decryption process is deceptively simple. The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, aleph, is substituted for the last letter, tav; the second letter, beth, for the one before the last one, shin, and so on. Sheshach in Hebrew is spelled Sh-Sh-K. Substituting the letters the word becomes B-B-L which is the Hebrew spelling for Babel.
Since the decoding of Sheshach several more words that have been encoded in the Bible by the Letter Substitution method have been uncovered in the Hebrew text, unveiling hidden meanings that the scholars had no idea were there.
The Keys to the Bible includes four methods of letter substitution: atbash (aleph for tav), atbach (aleph for het), previous (beth for aleph), and next (gimmel for beth).
Verse Retrieval
The Keys to the Bible allows you to retrieve specified verses, either from the Hebrew text or from the English text, into a separate file which you can export to your word processor. It includes eight different methods of specifying the verses to be retrieved: by key words, by range of text, by first letters of sequential words, by last letters of sequential words, by first letters of sequential verses, by last letters of sequential verses, by first/last letters of verses, and by strings of letters.
Biblical Festivals
The program includes a description of all the biblical festivals, and a special concordance of all the verses in the Bible where they are mentioned.
Chronology
The Keys to the Bible includes a detailed chronology of all the events in the Bible, which will help you to better understand, and place them into their time perspective.
Gregorian calendar to Hebrew calendar date converter and vice versa
The program includes a feature which converts the Gregorian calendar to the Hebrew calendar, and vice versa. Plus it gives additional information such as the Torah portion of the following Saturday. This screen also allows you, by pressing a button, to go to that Torah portion.
The Torah and the Prophets readings for the week.
This feature allows you to instantly go in the text to the Torah and/or Prophets portion of the week. You can even choose if the text of the Prophets to be read is according to the Ashkenazi or Sephardi tradition!
Rashi commentaries of the Torah
Rashi, (acronym for Rabbi Solomon ben Isaac who lived in France in the 11th century), is the greatest Jewish commentator on the Bible and the Talmud. His commentary on the Bible, and particularly on the Torah, (which is included in The Keys to the Bible), has had the most profound influence on Jewish and Christian biblical scholars. The bilingual comment is given verse by verse, and it is full of insights.
The 613 commandments of the Torah according to Maimonides
The work of the great Jewish-Spanish philosopher, physician, and codifier of the Middle Ages, Maimonides, (Rambam in Hebrew), is today studied and honored by people of all backgrounds and religions. Maimonides analyzed the Torah and found there six hundred and thirteen commandments, 248 Mandatory, and 365 Prohibitions. The Keys to the Bible has arranged these commandments according to subjet. By pressing a button next to any one of them, the program takes you to the place in the biblical text where the commandment appears.
