Klappentext Unexplainable coincidences abound in the Bible and in biblical Hebrew.For example, the Hebrew words for "ear" and "balance" are derived fromthe same philological root. But it was only toward the end of thenineteenth century that scientists discovered that the human body'sbalancing mechanism resides in the ear. Coincidences in the Bible and inbiblical Hebrew details scores of such incidents, including: Words in Hebrew that show intent to convey a message Coincidences in the Hebrew language that show intent to conveyhidden information, and occasionally information that could not beexpected to be known in biblical times Passages in the Bible that convey or assume information orknowledge unlikely to have been known in biblical times Other coincidences from Jewish tradition or Jewish historyAuthor Haim Shore discusses two types of coincidences-those that canbe considered just that, and others that are subject to rigorous statisticalanalysis. Altogether, nineteen analyses have been conducted with highlysignificant results. Simple plots that accompany the analyses clarify theirmeanings and implications so that no prior statistical know-how isrequired.
