It looks like many people are ok with intuition part of their brain dead.

I do not think that there were to many editions of Torah. It was not a secret code for mystery school. I use none, not proficient in Hebrew and to lazy to train myself, Torah was designed to be read by initiated in old times, written by those who knew for those who properly studied subject.
There are a few, the original scrolls and various reprints. Also there are spelling variations between them so guess what, any code based on set number spacing will fall over at the first spelling variation.

It is very ancient, I would dare to say they had only one version. Meru Foundation Research: Hebrew Alphabet, Genesis, Geometric Metaphor, and Kabbalah

Its poetic... it was never intended as science.

Look up Nachmanides, old rabbi, he translated it this way (my paraphrasing): only thing God created ex nihilo was a particle of matter with a blueprint of everything that to become built in it.

It says what it says. If one wants to interpret it poetically then it can mean anything the reader wants... Ahh religion.

I don't t think they know for sure, copying was strictly controlled, even with changes they could easily maintain the letter patterns.

It was written by initiates for future initiates, not for Gideon Bible use. Modern ignorance cheapens a lot of old wisdom.
Ok, the rabbi is wrong about what he has spent his life studying.
The things about using different letters, the big thing is,they are different letters.
And? Are you saying the bible does not say what it says in the bible

May be of may be not. Look up Stan Tenen. Letters represent the same objects or actions from the beginning.

It only says what one is capable to understand.

Which is a comment made so that you can pretend you actually answered to the point I made. The point that displayed how your line of thinking about atheism being "abnormal" as some strike against was complete and utter garbage.

Hopefully your comment was in jest. If not, the explanation for my comment was that I was making an appeal to numbers (and the relative rarity of a thing) like @leov did - to try and make him realize how dumb his point was about atheism somehow having a strike against it for being outside the norm.

How does you or me or the man behind the tree know
the original intent?
The word or concept of "science" as now did not
exist.
But I bet those guys, like any tribal people knew
basic science pretty well. Look how people learned
every use of every plant. Testing and recording
results! Etc.
I think they described how the world formed as
their best understanding, as proto-science.
(have you ever read Lucretius, on the nature of the
universe? VERY worthwhile! )
But anyway, the fact is that those bible-writers
got a lot of things profoundly wrong, as did Lucretius.
And that is ok; except for that the Roman poet
was not claiming god exaplined infallible truth to
him to write down.
