About this ebook

Recognizing this and taking it into account wherever it appears, can help you get more out of your reading of the Holy Scriptures. In Sevens in the Holy Bible, author Jay Schabacker leads readers in taking a deeper—and exciting—look into the significance of this special number in the Bible and beyond.

    Preface

    Numbers matter.

    Numbers rule all things. –Pythagoras

    Numbers are the highest degree of knowledge. –Plato

    History regards Plato and Pythagoras as a couple of really smart guys. Plato is referred to by many as the father of western philosophy. Pythagoras’ teachings had a formative influence on Plato. And as you see in their quotations above, both of these men had a particularly high regard for numbers.

    Numbers are everywhere. They surround us. They’re important indeed. A visit to your doctor’s office begins with numbers: your height, weight, temperature, pulse and blood-pressure. Be certain the visit ends with numbers too—the doctor’s bill!

    God’s Favorite Number

    When you were a kid, you likely had a favorite or a lucky number. What was it? Do you remember? When I was a young fellow, the number two was mine. I don’t recall why. I just liked it.

    This brief book is about God’s favorite number—the number seven.

    Almighty God created everything, even numbers. I’m sure He likes them all. But in the Bible, it seems He gave a special significance to the number seven. Recognizing this and taking it into account wherever it appears, can help you get more out of your reading of the Holy Scriptures. And it’s fun, too.

    Join me in taking a deeper—and dare I say, exciting—look into the significance of this special number in the Bible and beyond. Together we’ll discover that the number seven plays a prominent role in God’s revelation of Himself … to you and me.
