ΦΩΝΗ = 1358 = VOICE

ΦΩΝΗ = 1358 = VOICE

The Voice or Sound is the Power

 that brings the Worlds into manifestation.

 The Acts of Creation 

are rendered thus in Scripture 

‘And GOD said’

 And it is the Word

 the ΛΟΓΟΣ of "God" which

is the Builder of the Aeons

 ΦΩΝΗ, then, is the power 

of which ΛΟΓΟΣ 

is the articulate manifestation

 ΦΩΝΗ Is the mnemonic for the number 1358

 which is also the number

 of the altar - Θυσιαστρηιον

 also of the 

Gnosis as:-

ΕΠΙΓΝΩΣΙΣ = Perfect Knowledge. 

′Η ΜΕΓΑΛΗ ΓΝΩΣΙΣ = The Great Knowledge.

 ΓΝΩΣΙΣ ΚΑΙ ΑΛΗΘΕΙΑ= Knowledge and Truth.

 ΦΩΣ - Light, 

the First Creation of God by the power of His Word,

 is the mnemonic for the number 1500.

 It is by these two principles 

that GOD is manifested

 and the two

 form a duplicate Pleroma of Fulness

 which is the treasury of light

 1358 + 1500 = 2858 = 2 × 1429

 and 1429 = ΤΟ ΠΛΕΡΩΜΑ = The Fulness

 = ΘΗΣΑΥΡΟΣ ΦΩΤΟΣ - Treasury of Light

 ′Η ΦΩΝΗ ΒΟΩΝΤΟΣ = The Voice of One crying = again 2858

 and 

is the sum of the ΛΟΓΟΣ = 373

 ΙΩΑΝΝΗΣ = 1119

 and ′Η ΦΩΝΗ = 1366

 ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ = 1480

 and ΒΑΠΤΙΣΜΑ = 634

 unite to make 2114

 which is the number 

for 

mnemonic the Way of the Lord = ′Ο∆ΟΣ ΤΟΥ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ

 And as ΦΩΝΗ ΕΝ ΕΠΗΜΩ = the Voice in the Wilderness is 2366

 identical by Gematria with the Voice of the Lord - ′Η ΦΩΝΗ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ

 and with Jesus the Saviour - ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ′Ο ΣΩΤΗΡ

 if to this 2366 be added the number of ΒΑΠΤΙΣΜΑ - 634

 there appears the number 

 the Fulness of Christ, the ΠΛΕΡΩΜΑ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΥ - 2739

 which is also that of

 the High Priest of God - the ΜΕΓΑΣ ′ΙΕΡΕΥΣ ΤΟΥ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ

 and 

by addition of unity = 1

 becomes 2740 = ′ΙΕΡΕΥΣ ΚΑΤΑ ΤΗΝ ΤΑΞΙΝ ΜΕΛΧΙΣΕ∆ΕΚ 

= Priest after the order of Melchisedek

He who cries in the Wilderness = ′Ο ΒΟΩΝ ΕΝ ΕΠΗΜΩ = 2000

 and this 

is the sum of ′Η ΦΩΝΗ - 1366

 and ΒΑΠΤΙΣΜΑ - 634

 ′Η ΦΩΝΗ and ′Ο ΒΟΩΝ - 1366 + 992

are together 2358

 which = ΦΩΝΗ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ

 

′Η ′Ο∆ΟΣ 

and 

′Ο ΒΟΩΝ 

= 352 + 992 are together 1344 = ′Ο∆ΟΣ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ

There is here 

a perfect arithmetical correspondence

 which no mere juggling with numbers will explain.

 The several words

 single and combined

are as it were

 members of one body

the soul animating 

which is a doctrinal significance

 pervading the whole

 Take the next passage

 In Luke iii. 3 we find the expression

 ‘Baptism of Repentance’

 Now ′Η ΜΕΤΑΝΟΙΑ = Repentance

is the mnemonic for the number 485

 which, as already shewn, is that of IEOU

 the Greek Tetragrammaton of the Coptic Gnostic books

 ‘Bishop of Light’, and Divinity of Truth

 And 485 is the complement of 634 - ΒΑΠΤΙΣΜΑ 

 in the number of the first Aeon of those Books, which is 1119

 the number of the Threefold ΛΟΓΟΣ and of ΙΩΑΝΝΗΣ

 In this, then, we have another Cabala of 1119

 teaching that 

the name of John signifies Baptism and Repentance

 Again in the following verse 

occur the words

 ‘Make His paths straight’

 The word for ‘path’ is ΤΡΙΒΟΣ

 and 

the paths of the Lord are therefore ΤΡΙΒΟΙ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ = 1492

 which is 

not only the value of the text-word ΒΟΩΝΤΟΣ - of One Crying 

 but is 

the sum of 1119 ΙΩΑΝΝΗΣ, and 373 ΛΟΓΟΣ 

 and hence a quadruple ΛΟΓΟΣ (373 × 4 = 1492)

 This most interesting number is represented 

in GeΩmatria by the epithet

 of 

Our Lord found in I. Cor. xv. 45 

the Last Adam - ′ΟΕΣΧΑΤΟΣ Α∆ΑΜ

 the Gemellus Soter of Schwartze's translation

 now restored as ′Ο ∆ΙΣΩΤΗΡ = 1492

 The parallelism of ideas is very obvious

 But however remarkable 

the arithmetical correspondence shewn in the above examples

 it would be of inferior importance 

unless the numbers themselves 

had some intrinsic meaning 

derived from their essential nature

 What is really of importance 

is the fact that all these numbers

 are of one order 

and can be expressed 

as a mathematical or algebraical series

 representative of fundamental principles 

in the geometry of the Aeons

 What this series is we shall endeavour to make clear.

 It is concerned with the successive operation 

of the Generative Power of the number Three

 arithmetically symbolised by certain whole numbers

 chosen to represent the irrational quantities

 or surds 

which denote the triangular

 and other kindred measures

 in which the root of three is to be traced

 Thus

 for example

 the aeonial relation 

of the side

 of an equilateral triangle

 to its altitude

 is as 1000 

  to 866 

because the Altitude of every 

equilateral triangle is 

The side length multiplied by

the square root of three 

divided by two

= .866

 and 

that of the breadth

 of a rhombus

 of two equilateral triangles

 to its length, is as 1000 to 1732

 or as One to the Root of Three

 The Key-number of the series 

is found by abstracting from Three

 its own Root

thus 

raising all values by 1000 

to cover fractions

 according to the usual method

 3000 minus 1732 = 1268 

three minus the square root of three

=1268

The mnemonics to remember this

universal relationship are

= Εξ ου τα παντα

 ′Η αληθοσυνη Θεου

 ′Η ουσια η µεγαλη Θεου

=

Hence all =

'The truth of God =

'The great essence of God = 1268

 This is the Building Number

 that which geometrises 

Γεωµετρει 

the mnemonic for 1268

It contains the potency of

 the double ΒΑΠΤΙΣΜΑ - 634 + 634 = 1268

 From this 

we can proceed to build

 several series 

as follows 

1000 +  634 =  1634 = Βαπτισµα Κυριου

                                = Αριθµος Βαπτισµατος

                               The mnemonics for

                                = Baptism of the Lord 

                          = Baptism Number

1634 + 634 = 2268 = ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ′Ο ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΣ

                   = η οδος του πνευµατος

                    The mnemonics for

           = Jesus The Man

                    = The Way of the Spirit

 The Annunciation ΜΑΡΙΑ = 152 = αληθεια νικη

 + Αγγελος = 312 reveal ′Η Μητηρ = 464 + ′Η αγια Τριας = 634 ′Η εκπορευσις = 1098 (The Procession of the Holy Ghost.) = *Μαρια⋅ το πνευµα. + Βαπτισµα = 634 ′Η αρχη ζωης = 1732 (√3 × 1000) ′Ο λυχνος αγγελος. + 634 ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ′Ο ΣΩΤΗΡ = 2366 ½(3 + √3) × 1000 Φως Αδωναι. ?(φωνη εν ερηµω) + αγιον ενδυµα = 634 Προβολη του φωτος = 3000 3 × 1000 Λυχνος του υιου. = Φως⋅ ενδυµα κυριου. or Ενδυµα = 500 + Α∆ΩΝΑΙ = 866 ′Η Φωνη = 1366 ½(1 + √3) × 1000. + Βαπτισµα = 634 ′Ο βωον εν ερηµω = 2000 ενδυµα φως and Βαπτισµα = 634 + Α∆ΩΝΑΙ = 866 = ΦΩΣ = 1500= ½(3 × 1000). Readers will easily discover other series for themselves. We have shewn the correspondences evoked by the addition of number to number, or by the converse method of subtraction, but from the nature of the series, which has to do with geometrical quantities, it will be found that processes of multiplication or division are wont to give similar results. Thus, for example, 1500, the number of Light, if divided by 634, gives us 2366, the digits of ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ′Ο ΣΩΤΗΡ, and if this be again divided by 634 the digits 3,732 are produced, in Gematria 373 - the Logos, and representing the formula 2 + √3. It has been said of the Tenth Book of Euclid, which is the development of all the preceding ones, and deals with these ‘irrational quantities’, that it is “one of the most curious of Greek speculations. In this work Euclid had evidently in mind the classification of incommensurable quantities: perhaps the circumference of the circle, which we know to have been an object of enquiry, was suspected of being incommensurable with its diameter, and hopes were perhaps entertained that a searching attempt to arrange the Incommensurables which ordinary geometry presents might enable the geometer to say finally to which, if any of them, the circle belongs. However this may be, Euclid investigates, by isolated methods, and in a manner which, unless he has a concealed algebra, is more astonishing than anything in the Elements, every possible variety of lines which can be represented by the formula √(√α ± √β) α and β representing two incommensurable lines. He divides lines which can be represented by this formula into 25 species and he succeeds in detecting every possible species. He shews that every individual of every species is incommensurable with with all the individuals of every other species; and also that no line of any species can belong to that species in two different ways, or for two different sets of values α and β.”* The Gematria seems to reflect this intention and to apply it to the description of the aeons and their formative principles as the intellectual counterpart of spiritual things. The wise men of old knew that the Mind of man was geometrical, being but a reflection of the Mind of God: but so little did the Church of the monastic ages care for geometry that Euclid came back to Europe through the Arabic!
