A quick Google search can surely find those and more.I looked at some of these claims. To me they refute the so called 19 number miracle or when you start muliplying and dividing and what not.
But if for example, you have 23 times man 23 times woman...now this is a coincidence, equality maybe signified by it if you believe in the religion. Itself it means nothing. With science, we have 23 chromosomes from men 23 chromosomes from woman making 46. And it still means nothing by itself. For believers they might say, hey cool.
But if there is a lot of such patterns. If there is many more coincidences like these. They tend to add up do they not?
From what I see of other books, it tends to be play with mathematics to deceive people which I think is the case for the so called 19 number miracle.
They are all pathetic attempts to show that the book in question was not created by a human being. Another grasping at straws to try to prove that disembodied entities are trying to send us messages that only the inspired and enlightened can find. It's just a bunch of number manipulation, and total rubbish.
