666 - The Number of the Beast

Since the time of Irenaeus, who was a contemporary with Polycarp, the disciple of John, the Apostle, the investigation of the number of the beast i.e. 666 has always been a subject deeply interesting though perplexing.

From John's exhortation, Let him who has understanding and from his expression Here is wisdom, we know that a sober attempt to solve this scriptural enigma is perfectly justifiable.

As the Number of a Man must necessarily imply the Name of a Man, John has made them coincident i.e occurring together.

That is to say, The Number of the Name of a Man.

The Name of a Man must not be sought after in the Hebrew or Latin Language, but in Greek, the language in which John wrote Revelation.

1. The word must be a Greek word.

2. The word must imply the Name of a Man.

3. The word must derive the Number of a Man i.e. 666

  • Rule 3: In computation, the number 666 is derived from this word
