(Melchizedek Communique, MC122309) In the Pentateuch are found hieroglyphic values of letters and words running parallel with the narratives. The mathematical and the hieroglyphic co-exist with the narrative without doing harm to each other.

The first sentence in Genesis can be read as either, "In the beginning God made the heavens and the earth," or as, "In (or out of) his own essence as a womb, God, in the manifestation of two opposites in force, created the two heavens, and the earth."

Also unveiled in the opening of Genesis are the Parker and Metius values, found by them in their attempts to square the circle. (Background: "Quadrature may be source of measures". http://www.shout.net/~bigred/mc120609.html)

"Mr. John Bentley, in his Hindu Astronomy, sets forth the war in heaven, as given by the Hindus, as but a figure of the calculations of time periods; and goes on to show, that among the western nations, this same war, with the like results, took the form of the war of the Titans. This was the same with the war of the kings, in 14th Genesis."

"factum est autem in illo tempore ut Amrafel rex Sennaar et Arioch rex Ponti et Chodorlahomor rex Aelamitarum et Thadal rex Gentium inirent bellum contra Bara regem Sodomorum et contra Bersa regem Gomorrae et contra Sennaab regem Adamae et contra Semeber regem Seboim contraque regem Balae ipsa est Segor." (Genesis 14: 1-2)

Various values in the Pentateuch correspond with time calculations and Parker/Metius numbers. The key of the positions is in the names, among which the most prominent are those of Abram and of the royal Melchizedek.

The numerical value of the letters in the name Abram is apparently taken from the Hindu figure of Brahma. Notice how there is almost a perfect match of letters between Abram and Brahma.

The value of Abram is 243.

The name Melchizedek is composed of Mem-La'medh-Caph-Yodh ("Melchi", my king) and Tsa'dhe-Da'leth-Koph ("Tsedek", exactitude, righteousness).

And so we have Mem (40) + La'medh (30) + Caph (20) + Yodh (10) = 100. And Tsa'dhe (90) + Da'leth (4) + Koph (100) = 194.

Combining the two above totals (100 + 194) equals 294.

But when Abram pays a tithe, or tenth, to Melchizedek, 10 is added, giving 294 + 10 = 304.

One of the Gnostic values of Christ being 608, we find that doubling the above 304 Melchizedek number yields 608.

The value of Abram being 243, subtracting that from the doubled Melchizedek number 608 returns 365, the approximate value in days of the year. (608 - 243 = 365)

Melchizedek is an Aeon, or oulaum, or porchway of the temple, or the continually recurring flux and rebirth of time without end.

When Abram's name is changed to Abraham, the numerical value becomes 248. Taking the doubled Melchizedek value of 608, and subtracting the Abraham value of 248, yields 360 -- the number of degrees in a circle. (608 - 248 = 360)
