Dear Jack,
For your further information -
Ivan Pavin and the Gospel of Mark Perhaps the most impressive work of Ivan
Panin concerned the passage Mark 16:9-20 in the Greek New Testament. Modern
scholars are almost unanimous in judging this passage an interpolation, but
Panin, in his pamphet "The Last Twelve Verses of Mark" provides a dazzling
array of numerical patterns. In his view, these patterns appeared by design,
not by accident, and of course the designer must have been God. Therefore, the
passage is authentic.
As we shall see, this example provides an important lesson about Panin's
work. Accident or Design? As we have adequately demonstrated elsewhere, any
piece of text contains a large number of numerical "patterns" by chance. All
that is needed is the skill to present them in a way that makes them appear
extraordinary. However, some of the patterns presented by Panin were indeed
the result of deliberate design: Panin designed them!
(From http://cs.anu.edu.au/~bdm/dilugim/panin_mark.html as at 22.05.2007.)
Numbers are meaningless in isolation.
Have a nice 77 (= 7 + 21 + 49, where 21=a, 7=D and 49=y) !
Neville.
