[Zechariah11]

It will be the 'one' who signs the 7 year contract of peace concerning Israel. Daniel 9:27

100% in agreement on that.

Please, please, please give Fruchtenbaum's book, The Footsteps of the Messiah*" a look. (Available at Amazon.com) Despite the title, it is a great study about prophetic events. It has provided more insight into eschatology than any book I've read in a very long time. You'll find alot of new prophetic insight based on Scripture. He does a good job of avoiding sensationalizing current headlines. I don't know the man and haven't attended his church (if he has one) and rather accidentally came across another great work, Messianic Christology before I ordered The Footsteps of the Messiah. I'll probably order more titles from the same author this weekend.

Strangely enough, *'The footsteps of the Messiah" is an ancient Jewish expression equivalent to "the birthpangs of the Messiah".

The point is essentially this: whatever the name of the Antichrist will be in Hebrew, the numerical value will be 666.

Does the fact that the prophecy was written originally in Greek, not Hebrew.... have any bearing on anything? [Revelation 13:18]

An excellent point. I couldn't tell you whether the Greeks had a similar approach as Hebrews numerology. Have you heard of one?

Although the Revelation was written in Greek all of the symbolism iof the "Jewish Scriptures" is retained.

But a very good question, nonetheless.

Hi a coincidence but not what 666 really means, it is from a Greek word and means a Greek cross see this site for explanation

It is worth zero, except to wingnuts.

Actually, the people to whom this letter was addressed had no trouble unraveling the mystery, a riddle that got past Roman censors because Kaesar Neron adds up to 666 when spelled out using the Hebrew alphabet. (in the Latin alphabet, it adds up to 616 -- a number that is used in variant manuscripts)

If you don't mind taking Rev. 1:1-3 literally, and reading the rest as a coherent message that uses the standard metaphors and images of the prophetic vocabulary, the result is a stunning description of fulfilled prophecy. All that remains undone is the final resurrection.
