Biblical Proof

Many people don't have faith in the historic accuracy of the Bible.  Even fewer believe the literal, verbatim accuracy of every word in the Bible.

I admit, that 2 years ago, I was not a full believer in the Bible.  Today, I believe every word in the original Hebrew and Greek texts.  The Bible's King James Version, an English translation from 1611,  is a very good translation to English, but even here there are some misplaced commas, and possibly other improvements that are needed to reach the perfection found in the originating manuscripts.

If you don't fully believe in the Bible, is there an independent third party or an unbiased scientific method that could be used to show you the accuracy and God-inspired source of the Bible?

Last night, I think I discovered scientific evidence in favor of the Bible as the true Word of God.

The Bible's Old Testament, The Torah, is written in Biblical Hebrew.  In Biblical Hebrew, each letter by itself means something.  Hebrew words, composed by 1 or more Hebrew letters, gain meaning from the individual letters in that word, as well as the whole collection of letters that form the word.

For those who aren't math and science wizards, the video takes a slow, step by step introduction to the  numerous statistical correlations that Professor Haim Shore, Department of Industrial Engineering & Management, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva, Israel has discovered in the Bible.  Here is a video reporting on Prof. Shore's discoveries:




I have been a Professional Engineer for 38 years, where I used and specialized in statistical analysis of data as part of my job.  While I am not a leading expert in this area, I probably understand better than most about what has been discovered by Professor Shore.

If the above video goes too slow for you, or you want all the details, you can download a free copy of Prof. Shore's 379 page book  "Coincidences in the Bible and Biblical Hebrew".

I am especially impressed with the high F-ratios throughout his book.  F-ratio is a statistical test for quality, indicating that these are not spurious correlations that occurred by mere chance.  Here is one example from page 148 where the Hebrew names of 5 planets are correlated with the planetary diameters in kilometers, as reported by NASA.  We have an F-ratio of 386.4, and with n=5 (ie. 5 planets in the correlation data), we have a significance probability p<0.000288 which means there is less than a 0.0288% probability that the correlation is a random, nonsensical occurrence.
