numbers

Like physics, in which scientists are always looking to discover a single lattice-work of mathematics and philosophy which may explain all of experiential existence, my journeys in judaism and kabbalah seek a similar goal. 

What I have been, and continue to be, looking for is a framework, description, or passage within existing rabbinic literature, or more specifically Torah, nevi'im(prophets), or ketuvim (writings) (collectively Torah, Neviim, and Ketuvim are called 'the old testament' by non-jews and Tanach by jews) that can interrellate and describe the various relationships between all the major numbers in existence. all the pivotal, basic numbers, the more common numbers, 1, 2, 4, 7, 3, 10, 5, 18, 26, 32, 72, 50, 40, 100, 248, 365, 613 etc and the physical constants as well.

any thoughts or musings about the existence of such a passage.. that perhaps all the old testament is one large such passage? .. 

dig in if you so choose :)

yitz..
