The Bible Code - Michael Drosnin

~ ~ The Bible contains a secret code (the ‘Bible Code’) which has accurately predicted many earth-changing events, among them the rise and fall of Adolf Hitler, the beginning of the last Gulf War, the assassination of the Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995, and the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers in 2001 by Osama bin Laden. And now it predicts that the world will face Armageddon at the start of the Hebrew year 5766. (2006 in the modern calendar) This will be precipitated by a nuclear attack on Jerusalem by terrorists, which will ultimately lead to the ultimate horror. A nuclear war that will bring about the end of mankind. Well, that is ...  Read the complete review

5 years before writing The Bible Code, investigative reporter Michael Drosnin flew to Israel to meet with chief of Israeli intelligence about the future of warfare. While he was there he met a young officer who told him of a mathematician in Jerusalem, he claimed that this man had actually found the exact date the Gulf War would begin, and he had got this information from The Bible. The mathematician's name was Eli Rips, and he was considered a near genius in his field. Even with this knowledge, Drosnin was still skeptical, he arranged a meeting with Eli Rips to check out the story, expecting to only be there a short time, what Eli Rips claimed... that there ...  Read the complete review

This book is about a code found in the old testament of the bible by an Israeli mathematician. He took the original 3000 year old, Hebrew version of the bible and uses a computer program to search for letter sequences. Isaac Newton was convinced that the code existed and devoted years of his life to trying to find it, but he was never successful. According to the book, the bible code was “time-locked” so that we couldn’t find it until after the invention of the computer, and so that we would find it’s warnings about the future at the right time. The code has predicted events that happened thousands of years after the bible was written. ...  Read the complete review

Micheal Drosden's book The Bible Code is a facsinating book that explores the sequesial letter numbering of the bible. You may be aware that the Bible was written in 3 languages, Hebrew, Arabic, Greek. All these languages have numbers that represent letters - using a computer to take out all of the spaces you can find hidden codes within the text of the Old Testament (the Torah) This is well documented elsewhere and is a plausible notion. For example, the exact date, and occurrence of Rabin assasiantion is found in the text that dates back 1000's of years. WW2 is predicted. The birth of the nation of Israel (although this is also found in "plain text" in the ...  Read the complete review

This book is absolutely fascinating and in a nutshell, claims that the bible contains a hidden code which has not only revealed things that have already happened throughout history, but can fortell the future, not only for famous people, but for each and *every* one of us. Events already decoded from the text include man landing on the moon, the Gulf war, Hitler's rise to power and the Kennedy assassinations. Only only this; the scariest part of this book reveals that not only are we in the 'end of days' but only recently we were very close to armageddon. The author even tried to warn Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin that crossed with his name ...  Read the complete review
