The Seventh and the First: The Divine Thread of the Torah

By Daniel Langer

In this innovative approach to the study of the Torah, literary units are parsed in order to reveal how key words often appear in multiples of seven, with the context of the first instance shedding light on the seventh. Through the simple counting of words, the exquisite artistry inherent in the text is manifest, and readers can begin to uncover the intertextual relationships between various portions of the Torah and unveil its hidden layers of meaning.
