Gematria /ɡəˈmeɪ.tri.ə/ originated as an Assyro-Babylonian-Greek system of alphanumeric code/cipher later adopted into Jewish culture that assigns numerical value to a word/name/phrase in the belief that words or phrases with identical numerical values bear some relation to each other or bear some relation to the number itself as it may apply to Nature, a person's age, the calendar year, or the like. - from Wikipedia

In the video that Youtube suggested to me today, as I said at the beginning, a man named Marty Leeds explained his method of joining the PI number with the English alphabet through the Gematria.

What struck me the most at first was the huge resemblance of the word Gematria to Geometry. I even came to think it was a mistake :)

Apart from the religious theme, since I personally do not profess any religion, I found it very interesting in general. For example the use of mathematics and the alphabet with things like the human anatomy, when it refers to the hands, the amount of bones that compose it, the shape they have, and so on.

Maybe in some moments the way to reach the results seems a bit forced but thanks to this video TIL something new and now I have a new topic of interest to investigate, the Gematria.

Here is the video.
