The Number of The Beast is 666. It is given in Revelation, chapter 13, verse 18.
The starting point is pictured by the hand, which has 5 fingers, and a middle finger. We make an opposition of the left and the right side of the hand, so that the middle finger is what the two sides agree upon.
123 + 543 = 666, as 321 + 345 and 231 + 435 are 666, also.
Then we count the fingers as 1 2 3 2 1. That number we reach by the calculation
111²
Keeping the opposition in mind, we make the calculation
√ ( 12321 x ( ( 1 x 2 x 3 ) ( 3 x 2 x 1 ) ) )
which is 666.
As we know, ( 1 x 2 x 3 ) ( 3 x 2 x 1 ) = 6 x 6 = 36.
That is so. The number 36, we know, though has this quality that if we add the numbers from 1 to 36, the outcome is 666.
