It’s all there if you can find it. Its an old argument, one that ultimately may find science yielding to the Torah, accommodating itself to what is considered divine word, and not the defensive opposite which has commonly been a secular tradition of contemporary times. Equidistant letter sequences. ELS and 304805 letters in the Torah are said to contain everything. Sequences and combinations have long been remarked by Biblical scholars who intuitively saw more than random connections and digital technology has seemingly confirmed the perceptions of the sages of yore. Effectively, this well beyond parapsychology, tea leves and tarot, and could lead to where Jeremiah hid the Ark of the Covenant…
Barry Roffman: Since 2008 I have tracked Barack Hussein Obama in the Torah Code. From the moment I learned his preacher, Reverend Wright, had put a curse on America, I knew there was something very wrong, very evil about this likely Kenyan-born foreigner who occupies our White House. This section of my Table of Contents will take you to all that I’ve found in the Code about him. The first matrix shown before the Contents begins has as an axis term SATANIC OBAMA. It is touched by the name of a man who blessed Israel, but who continually tried to curse it – Balaam. These two men have much in common. In the open text is AN OATH OF THE CURSE. This would seem to apply to Obama’s goals for both Israel, and the USA. As an enemy of God, he backs homosexual marriage, seeking (like Balaam did with Israel) to bring down America through sexual perversion.Read More:http://www.arkcode.com/custom3_216.html
---Yet we can go further back in history to what the Rabbis call Kabala. According to Jewish tradition it is of unknown origin, Rabbis have claimed for centuries that That the Torah contains all knowledge and there is a "hidden text" in the Torah (Five Books of Moses) which they believe is as old as the Torah itself. When it was written it was there. Specifically Gematria which has to do with secrets hidden but found in the text by using mathematic methods of counting letters by different spacing. Secret meanings and phrases from the scripture in Jewish mysticism are derived from calculating their numerical values thereby one can understand the secrets of God. It is also known as ‘Remes’. In Zohar, Kabbalistic interpretations of numbers is common practice but this can be traced back to the occultic practice of numerology which is of a Pagan origin. The Vilna Gaon an 18th cent Rabbi in Luthuania was considered a child prodigy and one of the most brilliant men of Jewish history wrote, "all that was, is, and will be unto the end of time is included in the torah…not merely in a general sense, but including every species and of each person individually, and the most minute details of everything that happened to him from his day of birth until his death.

( see link at end) …One of the most important elements in participating in a dialog on the Torah Code Controversy is clarity. We have to know what the Torah Code hypothesis is and what it is not. And we have to be able to separate any assumptions arising from our personal religious beliefs from the logic of the statistical debate. This is because the debate is not a religious debate. The Torah Code hypothesis is a hypothesis in the statistical domain about the Torah text that we have today. Its language is the language of probability and statistics.

---Indeed, the text of today's Torah scrolls the world over are uniform, with very few exceptions. As we will demonstrate, the Mesorah (transmitted tradition) of our text was well tended to; its margin of error appears to be less than .00004, and to involve only insignificant letters at that. However, upon investigation it is evident that there existed many variants among older Torah scrolls. This prompts us to ask a number of questions: (a) First, one must ask how it came to be that there existed such diverse texts. Did they derive from individual copyists' errors, or were there differing Mesorot? (b) Second, one must ask how we came to accept at present one text as "correct" from among the many that once existed. (c) Third, can we have any degree of certainty that the present day unified text is the accurate text of the Torah as transmitted to and transcribed by Moshe?--- Read More:http://www.torah-code.org/controversy/THE_ACCURACY_OF_OUR_WRITTEN_TORAH.pdf image:http://www.examiner.com/article/obama-the-torah-code
…And it is important to know the strength of the positive experiments reported by the Torah Code proponents. The evidence offered is indeed enticing and suggestive that Torah Codes do exist. And I expect this evidence will get stronger and stronger as more and better experiments are done.( ibid.)
ADDENDUM:
---The crowning jewel of the master texts produced in this manner was the one produced in Teveryah by Aharon ben Moshe ben Asher (known simply as "Ben Asher") of the late 10th century. The Rambam extols his text as being extremely accurate and it was adopted by the Rambam and many others as the standard (Rambam, Hil. Sefer Torah, beginning of 8:4). In the Rambam's time, this Torah was known to be in Alexandria, Egypt. (Traditionally, the "Keter Aram Tzova," or Aleppo Codex, presently in Yerushalayim, is purported to be the Ben Asher manuscript. Unfortunately, only the Nevi'im and Ketuvim sections of this manuscript remain intact, as virtually the entire Torah section of the manuscript was lost to fire a few decades ago.) Today, the Teimani (Yemenite) Torah scrolls are very likely exact copies of this text. It is well known that the Yemenite Jews adhered firmly to the Rambam's rulings in every matter of Halachah. The limited size and dispersion of their community throughout the generations made it much easier for them to preserve their Mesorah. Indeed, there is no variance among Teimani scrolls today.--- Read More:http://www.torah-code.org/controversy/THE_ACCURACY_OF_OUR_WRITTEN_TORAH.pdf image:http://www.examiner.com/slideshow/yemeni-muslim-preserving-jewish-jewelry-spoke-at-library-of-congress-12-12?slide=40942586
( see link at end) …The politics of the debate has religious and secular elements opposed. Underlying the discussions are often strong emotions and this makes it more difficult to be logical and to be clear. And confusing the matter even more is the fact that the debate takes place in an environment in which there is a tabloid-like layer that is certainly orthogonal to the rigors of the statistical debate. This tabloid-like layer, due to popular books, from religious (Jewish and non-Jewish) and non religious people provide a variety of Torah Code arrays showing remarkable closeness between ELSs of historically or logically related key words. However, all these kinds of examples must be regarded as either meaningless or anecdotal, because they were not generated in accordance with a proper a priori experimental protocol in which first the related key words are specified and second an experiment is run which determines a probability that more ELSs of the related keywords are “closer together” than expected by chance, whatever chance might mean.

( see link at end) …Part of the problem with using matrices like this is that if the future is fixed, that would imply no free will (see my page on Talmud and Names). But there is another problem – even if the Code was meant to be predictive. Scientists now postulate the existence of parallel universes, with a possible ever increasing number of universes as number of choices and potential outcomes increase. If these exist, the code may show alternate futures simply because it was designed to show alternate universes. U
standing the Code (if it is real) then rests on knowing which universe you exist in; however, before getting too spun up based a simple matrix like this, remember that when the 5th lowest ELS of John McCain and President were this close, the statistical significance was just .0356 or about 1 chance in 28.
