RE: The Number 666 Applies to the Number of Protons, Neutrons & Electrons in Carbon Atoms... And Therefore in Us. Carbon is NOT EVIL!

in #life6 years ago (edited)

Earlier texts show the number to be 616 and not 666. As it is a numerical representation of the name of the Roman emperor (Caligula = 616), it is likely to have changed over time. For example, it is possible that Nero (Neron Caesar) = 666. Not sure of the numbers representing Augustus, Tiberius or Claudius.

Sort:  

This was possibly because it was said an early scroll showed 616 on a fragment. Problem is, the book of revalations was created from 280 manuscripts written in Greek, which in turn were written from thousands of fragmented texts translated from many anicient languages.
Cue Bill Murray movie :-)
