A few Months back I bought a book called Everything is
Wrong by Robert Anton Wilson
and amongst all the conspiracies and plots that are detailed
therein is a section called The
23 Enigma. In biblical parlance the scales were
lifted from my eyes and I started seeing
23’s everywhere. Is this occurrence of 23’s a sign
of God as infinite jester? Don't know,
but I feel there are enough mathematical, literary and
historical occurrences to make one
wonder.
Here is the lowdown on a few 23 occurrences:
God Is our Refuge and Strength a very present help in
trouble
46:2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; 46:3 Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains SHAKE with the swelling thereof. Selah. 46:4 There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. 46:5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early. 46:6 The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted. 46:7 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. 46:8 Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth. 46:9 He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the SPEAR in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. 46:11 The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. |
