Scripture Reference

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God”
Psalm 14:1 in Hebrew

Pictographs of the word fool, naybuhl
נ— a picture of a seed.
ב—a picture of a tent or house.
ל— a picture of a staff.
The pictographs of the word naybuhl expresses the leadership
of the house. Jesus is the Sower of the seed נ. He is the Word that

Psalms 14 and 53
These Chapters are almost identical in wording, but the focus of Psalm 14 is on God’s deliverance, where Psalm 53 focusses on the defeat on the wicked.
Psalm 14:5-6 states “But there they are, in great terror, for God is with the generation of the righteous. You would shame the plans of the poor, but the Lord is his refuge”.
By contrast, Psalm 53:3 reads “There they are, in great terror! Where there is no terror. For God scattered the bones of those who encamps you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them”.
Numerical value of nabal
נ —14
ב — 2
ל —12
14 + 2 + 12 = 28
The God that the fool refuse to acknowledge is captured in the Genesis 1:1. This verse of the Bible has 28 Hebrew letters.
“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.”
Only a fool says in heart there is no God.
Jesus as the seed
Genesis 22:18. “And through your seed (Abraham) all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.”
Galatians 3:29. “And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise”.
1 Peter 1:23-25. “Since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God; for “All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, but the word of the Lord remains forever.”.
ELS - 1 Peter 1:23
Since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God;
כַּנּוֹלָדִים שֵׁנִית לֹא מִזֶּרַע נִשְׁחָת כִּי אִם־מִזֶּרַע לֹא יִשָּׁחֵת בַּמַּאֲמָר
שֶׁל־אֱלֹקִים הַחַי וְהַקַּיָּם לְעוֹלָם
The text verse is no coincidence. The number 23 is the ordinal value of the first and last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, aleph and tav. Jesus identifies Himself as the aleph and the tav. Using a 23 letter skip, starting from the resh in the 8th word, the word spelled is resh-hey. It is used in symbolic biblical word studies to mean looking at, seeing, or revealing a head, leader, or primary source.
Jesus is the head of the church.
