Number in Scripture (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781420970975)

E. W. Bullinger was a 19th century English clergyman, scholar, and prolific author. He is best-known for his detailed six-part work "The Companion Bible", which was published over many years from 1909 to 1922. That comprehensive guide has assisted countless readers in their goal of better understanding the Bible. In his work "Number in Scripture", Bullinger examines in impressive detail all of the occurrences of numbers in the Bible and concludes that an examination of these numerical references proves that it was written by God and not by man. Bullinger finds patterns in the number of things made by God in Genesis, the number of books of the Bible, the frequency by which some words and phrases are repeated, and examines the meaning and significance of numerical references as they appear in the Holy Book. As anyone who has read the Bible can attest, numbers play an important role in God's message for man and Bullinger's work makes understanding the importance of these numbers easy for both those new to the scriptures and those who have been reading and studying it for years.
