NUMBER ELEVEN (11-3)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

0. Introduction

a) The importance of the number eleven is that it signifies disorder and judgment and is used 24 times in Scripture. The designation "11th" is used 19 times in scripture. Coming after 10 (law and responsibility), the number 11 represents the opposite - the irresponsibility of breaking the Law, which brings disorder and judgment. It is interesting to note what other mention(s) for 11 can be found in the Bible.

1. How does the number 11 symbolize disorder?

a) Eli, Hophni and Phinehas have for their Gematria (substituting numbers for letters) 462, the factors of which are eleven and forty-two; both significant of the disorder in Eli's house, and of disintegration in Israel.
