Subject: number 5 means in the bible. |
Bible Note: Hi Searcher, I hope you don't mind my stepping in here but, you are just repeating yourself with the same points you made in your previous post. I guess if you don't have anything to add then you have made your case. I think we can all agree though that 5 mostly means 5, but the Bible sometimes does put special significance to certain numbers, and I also think we all agree that we should not put too much time in studying biblical numerology because it can take our focus off the important message of the gospel. You also ask if scripture was provided. Well I guess you missed it because it indeed was. 1 Sam. 17:40; Matt. 14:17; Ex. 26:3; Lev. 26:8 John |
