Sacred Numbers
Hosted By: The Florence Melton School of Adult Jewish Learning
The study of the Hebrew language is an ancient art centered around hidden meanings, rabbinic interpretations, and more. One of the most intriguing areas of exploration is gematria, the study of how Hebrew letters correspond to numbers, unlocking codes that teach us something deeper than our surface understanding of words. Join gematria expert, Rabbi Mark Cohn, to explore the Jewish fascination, use, and presence of numbers as a means to dig deeper into Jewish sacred texts and connect with something bigger. As Israeli singer-songwriter, Shaanan Street of HaDag Nachash, wrote, “I’m just like every other Jew – busy with numbers 24/7/12.”
