888 - the number for Jesus

[edit]

--59.95.47.187 (talk) 08:07, 23 September 2008 (UTC) In the 1999 book The Greek Qabalah by Kieren Barry, the number 888 is presented as a representation of the name Jesus. __meco (talk) 08:59, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There appears to also be a website – JESUS 8880 – which focuses on this topic. __meco (talk) 09:36, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If that's accurate (I notice you don't have an ISBN for the book), it might be noted somewhere. The website has no significance to Wikipedia, as it appears to be a personal rant essay. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 16:11, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's searchable on Amazon so it would be easy to find the appropriate quotes for the above. __meco (talk) 16:59, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, in Carlo Suares' Cipher of Genesis there's a very interesting exposition of the Hebrew letter-numbers which details the significance of 888. Of course, all qabbalistic systems will have a take on this, but we should start with what we have ready at hand. __meco (talk) 17:03, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry about not checking Amazon. My only excuse is that a multiply-renamed editor (two, actually), frequently quote books which turn out to be self-published, or at least, have no publisher discernable on a google, amazon, or google books search. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 18:15, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
On the other hand, I'd never heard of Weiser Books before. Are they credible among numerologists? — Arthur Rubin (talk) 18:18, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Just because they're prolific doesn't mean that they're credible. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 18:20, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

– Similarly to other cases, there are many meanings for "888", and the year is not an obvious primary topic. — JFG talk 13:34, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
