(OPINION) ETH – A rabbi has come out making an erroneous claim that the “end of the world” is near after allegedly cracking a bible Code that reveals the doomsday alert. According to a report from Express, This Bible code, also known as the Torah code, is an alleged set of encoded-words hidden within the Hebrew text of the Torah, that according to its proponents, have seemingly predicted significant historical events.
Christianity and Judaism share the first five books of the Bible, which also make up the Torah – known as the five books of Moses, and a number of rabbis, priests, mathematicians, and professors have claimed within the original Hebrew versions of these sacred texts are secret messages left by God.
These rabbis attribute some of the largest events in history to have been prophesied in these texts, including the election of Donald Trump, the Holocaust, the destruction of the World Trade Centre on 9/11, and the shooting down of the Ukrainian airliner by Iran in January.
The hidden code is said to have been cracked centuries ago by mathematically selecting letters from the texts which appear to create words, but was populated by the documentary ‘The Torah Codes: End to Darkness’ by filmmaker Richard Shaw in 2015.
Rabbi Matityahu Glazerson – who featured in Shaw’s film – continues to study the so-called code, regularly uploading his findings to YouTube which appear to offer insight into world events. But in January he went one step further, uploading a video to his 10,000 subscribers claiming Iran will develop a nuclear weapon in 2020. READ MORE
