Eye of Providence in the church of the Holy sepulcher in Jerusalem , Israel

The 2701 triangle can be divided into four separate triangles in the form 3A + B = 2701, where A = 666 and B = 703.

• 2701² = 7,295,401
• 7 + 295 + 401 = 703
• 703² = 494,209
• 494 + 209 = 703

Also note that 2701 = 26² + 45². The gematria values of יהוה (YHWH) and Adam (אדם) are 26 and 45 respectively. The gematria value of  Eve (in Hebrew Chavah or חוה) is 19, which is 45 - 26.

 "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them"  Gen 1:27

Gen 1:1 and John 1:1  are the 1st and 26,046th verses in the Bible (KJV).

• 26,046 - 1 = 26,045

The first occurrence of 26045 in pi begins from position 18,648.

• 18 + 648 = 666

               εν  αρχηι  ην  ο  λογος  και  ο  λογος  ην  προς  τον  θεον  και  θεος  ην  ο  λογος
            "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
               55       719        58    70    373          31      70    373        58       450       420       134      31      284      58    70      373   =   3627

In Greek isopsephia, this verse has a value of 3627. Initially, this number seems unremarkable. Not triangular, not a star number, not  divisible by 37. But 3627 forms a trapezium, which fits perfectly with the Genesis triangle to form the 112th triangle. So 2701 + 3627 = 6328. The number of rows (112) is also the gematria value for The LORD God -YHWH Elohim ( יהוה אלהים).

• the tradition is that there are 613 commandments in the Torah.
• 613 is the 112th prime number

The complete creation triangle then looks like this :

Gen 1:1 has 7 Hebrew words and 28 letters, and John 1:1 has 17 Greek words and 52 letters.

• (7 x 28) + (17 x 52) = 1080

The prophet Isaiah recognized that God doesn't need sacrifice or ritual observance, and that the Temple exists for the sake of humanity, not for the benefit of God.

"Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?" Isa 66:1 (also see 1 Ki 27:8)

The phrase "The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool" (השמים כסאי והארץ הדם רגלי) has a gematria value of 1080. This verse was reprised in the Acts of the Apostles (Act 7:49). These two similar passages are verse numbers 18,924 and 27,166 in the Bible (KJV).

• 27166 - 18924 = 8242

The first occurrence of 8242 in pi begins from position 30,328.

• 30 + 328 = 358, the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach, meaning "Messiah")

In Balaam's second oracle (Num 23:11-24) Balak erred in thinking that more sacrifices were required in order to obtain God's favor. His underestimation of God's constancy, and particularly his devotion to Israel, was mocked by the narrator:

"God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?" Num 23:19

The term בן אדם (ben Adam, meaning "son of man") has a gematria value of 97. The first occurrence of 97 in pi is preceded by the three digits 358, the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach).

The gematria values of Gen 1:1 and Joh 1:1 are 2701 and 3627 respectively. The first occurrence of 27013627 in both e and phi (the golden ratio) are preceded by the same four digits:

Paul's letter to the Romans addresses the place of Israel in God's overall purpose. He makes a distinction between Abraham's mere natural posterity and his spiritual children:

"Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:" Rom 9:6
    ουχ οιον δε οτι εκπεπτωκεν ο λογος του θεου ου γαρ παντες οι εξ ισραηλ ουτοι ισραηλ
    1070   200     9   380           1365           70     373     770     484    470   104       636      80   65      349          850         349   =   7624

The term ("the word of God") has a gematria value of 1697, which is the 265th prime number. The first occurrence of 265 in pi is followed by the three digits 358, the gematria value of משיח (Moshiach).

The first occurrence of 27013627 in pi begins from position 62,418,439.

• 62 + 418 + 439 = 919, the gematria value of μελχισεδεκ (Melchisedec)

For more on Melchizedek/Melchisedec, see The Stars of Heaven.

For the full π formula, copy and paste into a spreadsheet program:
=(28*2*200*1*300*10*400*2*200*1*1*30*5*10*40*1*400*5*300*40*10*40*6*1*400*5*1*200*90)/(7*913*203*86*401*395*407*296)

As remarkable as is the estimate of 3.14155 for pi from the first verse in the Bible, even more amazing is the same six digits can be construed from the first verse of the New Testament (Mat 1:1). In this verse, the first word βιβλος (Biblos) meaning "The book" has a numerical value of 314. Beginning from position 314 in pi are the three digits 155 to complete the sextuple.

The fine structure constant (alpha) is much better known by it's inverse, which is essentially 137 (see The Mysterious 137).

What are the odds?    Using the same methodology, π and e are calculated to five significant figures from the first verses in the Books of Genesis and John respectively. The decimal system has ten digits, so the probability of matching a single digit is 1/10, except the first digit which can't be zero. Extrapolating, the probability of matching five digits becomes 1/9 x 1/10 x 1/10 x 1/10 x 1/10, or 1/90,000 (one chance in ninety thousand). The probability of calculating π and e from these two "In the beginning" verses, to five significant figures and using the same methodology, therefore becomes 1/900,000 x 1/90,000 or one in 8.1 billion! The likelihood of this being purely random chance therefore becomes almost ridiculous.

Skeptics may rightly claim that the sample should include the first verses from all the books in the New Testament, not just John.  There are 27 books in the NT, so the probability then becomes 1 chance in 300 million.

But wait, I hear you say, it should apply to any verse from the New Testament, not just the opening verses. There are 7,957 verses in the New Testament, so after applying this stringent condition the probability becomes 1 chance in 1.02 million. Any way you cut it, the odds are astronomical!

Relying entirely on statistical  probabilities is controversial, however the hypothesis in this case is supported by both the gematria and the complementary geometry between Gen 1:1 and John 1:1. So not reliant on probabilities alone.

According to a Midrash, the Torah was created prior to the creation of the world, and was used as the blueprint for Creation. The teachings of the Torah were given by God to Moses in 1313 BCE. The majority of Biblical scholars believe that the written books were compiled between approximately 600 BCE and 400 BCE. In any event, the accuracy of the π approximation revealed in the first verse of the Book of Genesis remained unsurpassed for millennia.

Another Chinese national, Zu Chongzhi (429-500 CE), was the first mathematician to surpass the accuracy of the Genesis formula when he used a 24,576 sided polygon to estimate π  as being between 3.1415926 and 3.1415927. Zu proposed a fractional estimate of 355/113 which has become known as Zu's Ratio. It is now known that this is the most accurate fractional approximation of  π  possible using a denominator less than 16,604. This was an incredible achievement unmatched by European, Indian or Middle Eastern mathematicians for about 1,000 years!

The accuracy to 7 decimal places established by Zu Chongzhi was finally surpassed by Persian mathematician Jamshīd al-Kāshī in 1400 CE, who extended the accuracy to 16 decimal places, which became the benchmark for a further 200 years.
 
Consider the 96, 192 and 24,576 sided polygons used by Archimedes, Liu Hui and Zu Chongzhi in their efforts to approximate the value of π. These numbers share a striking pattern in binary notation:

The gospels are known to have been written during the first century CE, well before the first vague reference to the concept of the irrational number e in an appendix to John Napier's work on logarithms in 1618 (a nod to the golden ratio, which is 1.618). The e notation made its first appearance in a letter Euler wrote in 1731. He made various discoveries regarding e in the following years, but it was not until 1748 when he published Introductio in Analysin infinitorum that he gave a full treatment of the ideas surrounding e. He showed that e = 1 + 1/1! + 1/2! + 1/3! + ...  and that e is the limit of (1 + 1/n)n as n tends to infinity. Euler gave an approximation for e to 18 decimal places, e = 2.718281828459045235. The accuracy of the value of e obtained from the John 1:1 calculation wasn't surpassed for over 1,600 years! For a full account of the number e see here.
