Gematria is a science of numbers and letters used by ancient Hebrews that assigns numerical values to words and phrases. The gematria calculator is an online calculator that can be used to calculate the numerical value or summation for a word or phrase, using the international standard of gematria in contemporary Hebrew. It provides several available methods of calculating the value, including Biblical Hebrew, Talmudic Hebrew and modern Hebrew, so the individual can customize their search according to preference and results desired.
The calculator helps one to compare words in different languages and contexts, swiftly obtaining the numeric value for a word or phrase without delving into complex calculations. It is also useful for devising new word combinations with similar meanings, by checking which combinations have equal gematric values. Additionally, it allows you to discover underlying patterns between words which otherwise would not be easily evident. By substituting one letter of a word with others having the same gematric values (known as interchangeables), one can find related words in traditional texts.
The range of applications of this calculator assists those pursuing studies in various fields such as Biblical studies, Judaism, Kabbalah (Jewish mysticism) and numerology. Elucidating complex kabbalistic concepts is made easier when dealing with mystical language and texts written centuries ago; something that would otherwise take hours of research to accomplish can now be accomplished quickly with help from this tool.
