We’ve gotten several emails asking is it true "www" is "666" in the Hebrew language.

YES. . . and. . . NO.


NOTE: "www" is the acronym for world wide web and is normally used as the prefix, or first node of the Internet domain names, such as www.av1611.org

How to get 666 from www?

The Hebrew and Greek alphabet does not have separate characters or alphabets for numbers and letters. Letters are also used as numbers. So each letter is a numerical value.

The Hebrew equivalent of our "w" is the letter "vav" or "waw". The numerical value of vav is 6. So the English "www" transliterated into Hebrew is "vav vav vav", which numerically is 666.

I remember when it was thought that Ronald Wilson Reagan was/is the antichrist. Ronald (six letters) Wilson (six letters) Reagan (six letters) (6,6,6)

[FONT=Arial, helvetica]I wondered about the Greek, since the sentence was probably spoken/written in Greek, so I went back to the article.

In Revelation 13:18 we're curiously told to "count the number of the beast". How do we "count the number of the beast"? In Revelation 14:11 the mark is referred to "the mark of his NAME". In Revelation 13:17, 15:2 it's called "the number of his NAME". So the "mark" and "number" refer to his "name". We count the number of his name....
[/FONT][FONT=Arial, helvetica]

This "count" equals "Six hundred sixty and six', not simply three 6's or 666.

The article discussed both pro and con.

What does that mean? That you consider the internet to be the tool of Satan? Well why are you using it then?

Sorry, I don't mean to sound rude, but I don't understand. There have been loads, probabaly thousands, of explanations and predictions about 666. Wasn't June 6th just gone meant to be a demonic day, or the beginning of the end of the world, or something. Yet we're all still here.

The number of the beast is Six-hundred and sixty six.

So vav vav vav is six, six, six... while the number of the beast is six hundred and sixty six.

What a lovely twist.

I just thought it was time to drag it out again.
Exactly! Yes, it was the perfect time to drag it out... being Rosh Hashana on Shabbat, 1 Tishrei, 5767... the day of the equinox.... it's all lining up clearly now...

... Happy new year, all!

I saw a cartoon once that showed a man walking by two ministers (they had collars). The man was in a rage, smoke was coming from the top of his head and had the number 665 across his forehead. One of the preacher’s whispers to the other, “Oh, he’s not all bad.”
