Description

The world is full of numbers!

The number 4 as the number of the world in the seasons, the Gospels and in Thomas Mann's novel "Joseph and His Brothers". The number 7 as the number of completeness in the days of creation, in the last words of Jesus on the cross or in the volumes of the Harry Potter series. Or the number 1 in monotheism or in the English word "atonement" for repentance.

The world is filled with the mystery of numbers!

Mahan Wenzel gets to the bottom of this mystery in his book, explaining the numbers from 1 to 613 in the biblical and secular world. The 22 letters in Hebrew, the 27 letters in ancient Greek and the 26 letters in Latin also represent a special feature. Here the author attempts to show the extent to which these languages still determine the German language. Readers will discover many familiar words, from music to tohuwabohu to second!

The author's intention is simple: to infect readers with enthusiasm for numbers!

The world is wonderfully organized!
