Thoughts on Numbers 111 to 999
(111,222,333,444,555,666,777,888,999)
666 is the number of man because man was created on the 6th day of creation, and it signifies "fallen man" since man comes short of God's perfection, which number is 777. (See "the mark of the beast", Rev. 13:18.) (For
more see www.bible-codes.org/letters-666-beast.htm. And "666".)
Six times 111 = 666.
777 signifies perfection
because seven is the number of perfection. (Note the age of Lamech in the Bible when he died; also, he died 777 years before Israel entered Egypt in 1876 BC.) (Click here for lengthy
discussion on 777 and Lamech.)
Seven times 111 = 777.
888 is the number of a
'new creation', (i.e., 'a new man'). It is Jesus' number because the name Jesus adds up to 888 in Gematria in contrast to fallen man's number of 666 (Rev. 13). Moreover, Jesus received His name when He was eight days old
on the day that He was
circumcised! (Luke 2:21.) (Note, the 'names on foreheads' in Rev. 13:18 in contrast with the next verse, 14:1.)
Eight times 111 = 888.
Numbers of less certainty are the following:
111 by itself perhaps refers to the oneness of the Triune God. But that is only a guess.
222 Only a guess: "In the mouth of two or three witnesses." ?
333 may be connected to the Trinity and resurrection.
444 is a period of trial. four times 111 = 444. (Interestingly, the last event mentioned in the bible occurred in 444 BC with the
decree of Nehemiah to rebuild the walls.)
555 People tend to connect the number 5 with grace;
however, the evidence for that it very sketchy. Perhaps it is best to see the numeral 5 (and thus 555) as simply a transitional number.
A sort of round number used to build into other numbers. Thus, 5 is
a building-block number. Often numbers are rounded to 10 or 5 in
the bible, or rounded by the providence of God as in biblical
genealogies. Thus, five is simply half-ten as in the two tablets
of the ten commandments of Moses, or like your two hands or feet.
(Recall the 10 toes of Daniel's statue.)
666 (See above)
777 (See above)
888 (See above)
999 would be one short of 1000, and thus it implies imperfection or incompletion.
Also, 1335 (Dan. 12:12-13) less 3 days = 111 x 12 (1332), and refers to the 12 tribes of Israel moving toward the completion of their trial unto the great day of blessing and (3) resurrection arrives.
See below chart for the 1335 along with time frames related to that number.
