The Bible has been the subject of many numerological attempts at applying greater / different meaning. *The Bible Code * being a popular example resulting in a book and a movie (at least one movie). My step-mother (raised Catholic) was a big fan of *The Bible Code*, but I never knew how to take it.
This isn't a reference to the meaning or symbology of the number 7 in the Bible, but instead to the practice of decoding the Bible by applying number patterns to it.
I've always considered Numerology to be a practice like Astrology. Is the application of it to the Bible accepted by Christians as another way that God speaks to man, or just more pop-theology?
