I recently stumbled across this video on YouTube, from Nehemia Gordon. The Gospel of John has always been my favorite, so I went through the first two verses and wanted to share this with you. It makes sense to me that much of the original New Testament manuscripts would have been written in Hebrew, but as I've proven many times the Original Greek NT is Divine as well, and this post will expand on that.
It's YESHUA!
For whatever reason, I see people arguing about the pronunciation of the name Yeshua in vain. This manuscript contains the Nikkudot (Vowel Points) and makes the pronunciation unquestionable. I've been studying Hebrew for a few years, taking formal Hebrew classes for almost 2 years now, so I understanding enough Hebrew to affirm that the pronunciation is accurate, Yeshua ( יֵשׁוּעַ ), according to this early manuscript. We don't know anything about this manuscript, but I can tell that it's very old. This most liklely predates the translation by Franz Delitzsch, Franz Delitzsch, German/Jewish Scholar, from 1877.
Verse One ( John 1:1 )
In The Beginning Was The Word and The Word Was With Elohim and Elohim Was The Word.
בראשית היה הדבר והדבר היה אצל האלהים והאלהים הוא היה הדבר
John 1:1 - (From Manuscript from The Vatican Archive)
Beresheet HaYah HaDavar V'HaDavar HaYah Etzel HaElohim V'HaElohim Hu HaYah HaDavar
Verse Total Value = 1933
Of course, I had to investigate this 1933 value more closely and I found a couple interesting connections. First off, 1933 is the 295th Prime Number, and I see a lot of Prime Numbers in The Word.
"And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head." - Genesis 48:18
ויאמר יוסף אל־אביו לא־כן אבי כי־זה הבכר שים ימינך על־ראשו
Verse Total Value = 1933
"The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the rulers."
Isaiah 14:5
שבר יהוה מטה רשעים שבט משלים
Verse Total Value = 1933
Verse Two ( John 1:2 )
"This Was In The Beginning With Elohim" - John 1:2 (From Manuscript from The Vatican Archive)
זה היה בראשית אצל האלהים
Zeh HaYah Beresheet Etzel HaElohim
Numeric Value = 1157
"Cursed is the one who treats his father or his mother with contempt.’
“And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ - Deuteronomy 27:16
ארור מקלה אביו ואמו ואמר כל־העם אמן
Numeric Value = 1157
"Turn to me and be gracious to me, as is your way with those who love your name." - Psalm 119:132
פנה־אלי וחנני כמשפט לאהבי שמך
Numeric Value = 1157
If we take the Sum of The Numeric Values of these two verses, we see an interesting connection to John 1:1 in Greek.
"In The Beginning Was The Word and The Word Was With Elohim and Elohim Was The Word."
בראשית היה הדבר והדבר היה אצל האלהים והאלהים הוא היה הדבר
John 1:1 - (From Manuscript from The Vatican Archive)
Verse Total Value = 1933
"This Was In The Beginning With Elohim"
זה היה בראשית אצל האלהים
John 1:2 (From Manuscript from The Vatican Archive)
Numeric Value = 1157
John 1:1 (1933) + 1:2 (1157) (From Manuscript from The Vatican Archive) = *3090*
John 1:1 in Greek = 39x93 (3627)
I've covered quite a bit on the Astounding Perfection observed in Genesis 1:1 and John 1:1, but I wanted to reiterate a few more points here. I suggest you check out the following for more:
"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." - Genesis 1:1
בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ
Total Numeric Value - 2,701
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." - John 1:1
εν αρχηι ην ο λογος και ο λογος ην προς τον θεον και θεος ην ο λογος
Total Numeric Value - 3,627
Genesis 1:1 = 2701
John 1:1 (Greek) = 3627
2701 + 3627 = 6328
2701 (Genesis 1:1) is the 73rd Triangle Number. Graphically, the Numeric Value of John 1:1 adds *39* additional rows to the base of the 73rd Triangle Number 2701 (Genesis 1:1) - thus creating the 112th Triangle Number 6,328 (Genesis 1:1 + John 1:1).
This 112th Triangle Number is very significant as 112 is The Numeric Value of LORD G*d
( יהוה אלהים )
If all this wasn't enough, if we rearrange the digits of 6328, in ascending digits (from least to greatest), it gives us 2368, which is the value of Jesus Christ
( Ιησούς Χριστός )

Here is a link to the original manuscript, from The Vatican Archives:
חסד ושלום עליכם והרבה אהבה וברכות
May Grace and Peace Be Upon You and Much Love and Blessings!
Read the last part of that verse... "...and the GOD He was the WORD."
It has the Hebrew "הוא" in there.
