BTE620 : Intro to Biblical Cryptology

Introduction to Cryptography (the study of secret writing), details astonishing hidden messages within the text of the Torah that could only have been placed there by the Great Author Himself. This course will explore the impact of information sciences on our understanding of ancient texts… including microcodes, (“jots and tittles”) macrocodes (strategic anticipatory structures), and metacodes (beyond the boundaries of physical reality)… as well as the highly controversial “equidistant letter sequences” discovered in the Bible. Students will be able to use this exciting information to discover the hidden messages because many of them do not require a computer to decipher.
