Significance of Numbers?
Not the book of the Bible, but numbers in general?
Do you think there is any religious relevance to numbers? Or is it solely a product of man? I mean, God blessed certain people to be prolific at math... so what religious significance does math itself have?

I think a working understanding of numerology can enhance the reading of certain mystical texts. For instance, the structure of the 7-day Creation story in Genesis.

The #3 also has great scriptural meaning. I have a book I have been studying concerning numbers and the connection to scripture.

Not sure if it's religious based but in Japan the number 4 is considered unlucky because it share the same word(symbol) for death.
