An amazing
prophecy emerges when the meanings
of all 72
names
in the genealogy from Adam to Jesus are read sequentially!
The meaning of a name was very important in bible
days. The bible itself informs the reader what the meaning of many
biblical persons are, men of renown such as Adam, Cain, Seth, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and
all his
12 sons.
Their names tell the story of why or how they were born.
Some have wondered if these names (with their
meanings) were intended by God to be strung together in chronological succession to tell
some larger story. Already, the first 10 names in the bible from Adam to
Noah have been strung together. But do they continue to read like this all the
way to Jesus, 72 persons in all?
We begin with “God”
in the genealogy of Jesus just as the Gospel of Luke does. Luke calls Adam,
“The son of God”, therefore "God" is the correct starting point
in Jesus’ genealogy, (Luke 3:38).
Read
down the right
column where the meaning of each consecutive name
in Jesus' genealogy is given, and note the unfolding prophecy.
The
Promise to Fallen Man
(Jesus is called, "The Glory of God", in 2Cor. 4:6.)
Another type of bible code has also
been recently discovered. It occurs within the first 20 names from Adam to
Abraham and confirms the Names Code. In the original Hebrew, the first letter of each consecutive name
from Adam to Abraham's father "Terah" forms a complex acrostic. (The
acrostic will be examined separately in the second part
of this study.)

The genealogy of
Jesus portrays key biblical events as they unfolded through the ages,
while at the same time foreshadowing Jesus Christ.
The images are intended to help the reader notice what these key biblical
events were.
The
Promise to Fallen Man
The God-Man
is appointed; a man of sorrow is born!
The Glory of God shall come down from heaven and teach men that by
means of His death He shall bring comfort and rest to those who mourn.
Both
Evil and Hope Branch Out Like a Plant
The
fame of the stronghold of Babylon, and sorrow, extend their borders like a
plant beyond the place of division (at the Tower of Babel).
-- But I will make
Babylon fade away!
The
"Friend" of the Downtrodden is Angry
A friend also branches
out (like a plant), enraged with fury!
A
Mighty Father and a Prince, Who Save a People
A
glorious father, the father of a great multitude laughs as he outwits (his
enemy).
A righteous prince sees God!
A mighty one fights! {He
joins himself to an assembly, a glorious people whom he rescued, stranger(s)
in a strange land, captives delivered by God!"}
One
who praises the Lord breaks open a way into a safe place that is surrounded by
a high wall.
O' my people who belong
to the prince, a prophet clothed with strength, who serves (the Lord), is here! (He
is) the Lord's loving gift,
His payment for peace that sets the people
free.
The
Son Relies on His Father to Raise Him Up
My
Father is the Lord, the healer of him whom the Lord judged and then raised
up.
The Lord has taken hold
of me and the Lord is strong! Mighty is the Lord! My strength and help are in
the Lord! The Lord is perfect! I took hold of the strength of the Lord and it
made me forget my misery.
The
Son Identifies Himself as Co-Creator
Truly, (I am) the Master
Builder whom the Lord God healed, whom the Lord raised up, and whom the Lord
upholds, did uphold and will uphold!
The
Son Prays and Praises His Father For Help
I
have asked God about the ransomed of the Lord --- those exiled in Babylon. My
Father is awesome! God will raise up a helper, the Just One will the Lord
raise up! God is my praise! God is the One who helps.
Concluding
Blessing upon Messiah and His People
May the Gift of Jacob (i.e.,
the nation of Israel) increase in greatness, for God is with us --- the Messiah and Savior of those
called out (of Babylon).

The
Acrostic
The
Promise of Forgiveness
The
acrostic from Adam to the great grandson
of Moses:
"I will forgive my
enemies, having compassion, forgiving those made from the dust once
again."
Note:
The righteous line of Adam to Noah
continues on through to Jesus and His
"Church". The word "Church" is listed as the last name in
the genealogy because in a theological sense His Church, which was
"born" just 50 days after Jesus died, caps off
the genealogy of Jesus. This is in agreement with Isaiah the prophet,
"...he will see his offspring and prolong his days", (Isa.
53). (Click here for the
method of decoding the Names Bible Code.)
1.
Sometimes a word in Hebrew has a double meaning
that is lost in the English. On a few occasions both meanings are used
to bring out the full sense. This is especially true if the bible itself
applies the meaning of a name in more than one way, therefore the same liberty
has been taken in the code, (example, Perez). Our purpose is to decipher the
names-code. It is not to burden it with a modern methodology that is foreign
to both the bible and to ancient near-eastern culture. To do so would be a
huge mistake. Our interpretation must remain within the boundary that the
bible itself gives to names. There are a great many names where the bible
itself explains their meanings and applications. One cannot properly unravel
the names code without first studying them, for they are the key that unlocks
this code. Adam, Cain, Seth, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (and all 12 sons),
Perez, Peleg and Jesus all have the meaning of their name explicitly given in
the bible. And there are a number of women also.
2.
On a few occasions, (as with Uzziah/Azariah and Eliakim/Jehoiakim),
the person had two or more (often similar) names. Their meanings have been
rendered as a compilation of both.
3.
Sometimes in the bible, one name has two meanings: the literal
meaning and a meaning based upon another word that only sounds like the
literal word. In other words, a pun. An example of this is the naming of
Zebulun in Gen. 30:19-20. Also see the long list of puns on names in Jeremiah
48:1-9 and elsewhere, There likewise appears to be a few (not many) instances
of this in the names-code, as with Kenan, Methuselah, Lamech, Arphaxad (both
literal and as a pun), and perhaps Boaz. Also see note for Abraham.
4.
On several occasions, a noun has been used as a verb, such as Serug,
(meaning, "a branch"). Since it is in parallel with the verb before
it, "to sprout", the meaning of Serug likely carries this same sense
also. Moreover, there is also a reference in the bible to the branch of the
Lord "branching forth", (Isa.11:1; Zech. 3:8; 6:12).
5.
"And", "but",
"of", "the", "is/are", "in",
"to" etc., are included in the meaning as simple connector words,
necessary in a code of this type, and not uncommon in normal Hebrew too. Other
additions are used only when the meaning is strongly implied. These are
bracketed. The code could read without these inserted words in the brackets
but that would hinder the casual reader. It would especially hinder one
unfamiliar with the biblical narratives because the names-code is running
through the biblical history of man and interpreting it as it goes.
Recognizing this is key to interpreting the code in segments, or as a whole.
The names-code summarizes the history of man as seen through the eyes of a
Jew!
6.
Sometimes the names appear out of order to the
English reader, but not in the Hebrew since the adjective usually follows the
noun in Hebrew, and there are other such differences between Hebrew and
English. (See#57 and note for an example.)
7.
The context determines tense because tense can
be blurred in Hebrew when dealing with prophecy, with the exception of
Jeconiah. He had three names basically the same, two of which were exactly the
same except for one being future and the other being past tense. Therefore,
since the names themselves make this distinction, it is thus reflected in the
code.
8.
Wherever the code reads, "the Lord",
it actually reads, "Jehovah" (or "Jah" as shortened), or
as more correctly pronounced, "Yahweh". Jehovah is the personal name
of God given to Israel by covenant at the time of the Exodus.
Over
a dozen sources were used to dig into the meaning of these names, many of
which are found in the E-Sword free software. The classic and monumental
works of “Brown Drivers and Briggs Hebrew and English Lexicon” and “The
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia” were the main resources, also
free over the internet, and therefore others can verify the names for
themselves.
