Torah and Mathematics Resources

In the sciences, Mathematics manifests the sefirah of wisdom. The various methods used to translate Hebrew words into numbers are known collectively as gematria. There are many different such methods and throughout all of Rav Ginsburgh's writings we find them used profusely. The sefirah of wisdom is many times described as a flash of lightning striking the mind, giving the recipient new sparks of insight. Just as mathematics revitalized all of science in the 16th and 17th centuries, so the application of gematria, reveals new insight into the Torah.
