Hey, Max.
:13:35
Lenny Meyer.
:13:37
I'll put it out.
:13:41
So... What do you do?
:13:47
I work with computers. Math.
:13:51
Math? What kind of math?
:13:53
Number theory. Research mostly.
:13:55
No way.
I work with numbers myself.
:13:58
I mean, not traditional.
I work with the Torah. Amazing!
:14:05
Hebrew is all math.
It's all numbers.
:14:09
You know that? Look.
:14:11
Ancient Jews used Hebrew
as their numerical system.
:14:14
Each letter's a number.
:14:16
The Hebrew A, Aleph, is 1 .
B, Bet, is 2.
:14:21
Understand? But look,
the numbers are interrelated.
:14:25
Take the Hebrew for father, ab.
:14:27
Aleph, Bet.
:14:30
1, 2 equals 3.
:14:33
The word for mother, haim.
:14:35
Aleph, Mem.
:14:38
1, 40 equals 41 .
The sum of 3 and 41, 44.
:14:44
Right? Now, the Hebrew word for
child - mother, father, child.
:14:49
Yelev.
:14:51
That's 10, 30 and 4.
:14:56
44.
:14:59
Torah is just
a long string of numbers.
