Some years ago I saw a documentary about this "number of the beast 666" and it was about how correct is this number. In this program some scholar in Biblical history said the correct number could be 616(if I remember correctly)

WHERE 666 is concerned... nuthin' is too off-topic

...even in the mountains of N. Carolina

Quote:

In most manuscripts of the New Testament and in English translations of the Bible, the number of the beast is 666. In critical editions of the Greek text, such as the Novum Testamentum Graece, it is noted that 616 is a variant.

< Has the number of the beast as χιϛ, 616 from the Greco-Ptolemic period of Egyptian history.

Only one McDonald's in the world has turquoise arches. Government officials in Sedona, Arizona, thought the yellow would look bad with the natural red rock of the city.

How can your reply be consdiered off topic in a thread titled: "I never knew that"

Did you know this:http://www.av1611.org/666/www_666.html

Is "www" in Hebrew equal to 666?

How to get 666 from www?

Quote:

The Hebrew and Greek alphabet does not have separate characters or alphabets for numbers and letters. Letters are also used as numbers. So each letter is a numerical value.

The Hebrew equivalent of our "w" is the letter "vav" or "waw". The numerical value of vav is 6. So the English "www" transliterated into Hebrew is "vav vav vav", which numerically is 666.

For UK householders: I found out today that if you don't get your chimneys swept professionally each year, and obtain a certificate from a HETAS approved sweep (and not Dick Van Dyke), your insurance company might not pay up if there's a fire.

The last movie ever rented at a corporate Blockbuster was "This Is The End" at a store in Hawaii.
