The Biblical Trinity

[adam45]

Why I believe the Trinity is biblical.

שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ יְהוָה אֶחָד׃
Šəmaʿ Yīsrāʾēl YHWH ʾĕlōhēnū YHWH ʾeḥād:
Hear, O Israel: the LORD is our God, the LORD is One.

Echad in Hebrew: אֶחָד (three letters)
Echad translated: One
Echad's Gematria: 13

God is one in three, three in one.
God is like the light, light is of three primary colors.
God is like a triangle, a triangle is of three corners.

The Father is the head.
The Son is His right arm.
The Holy Spirit is His left arm.

Thank you.

Hi @adam45 ,

Welcome to RF.

Echad in Hebrew: אֶחָד (three letters)
Echad translated: One
Echad's Gematria: 13

I like the way you're thinking about this deeply. Sincerely. However, using this same logic YHVH is 2 not 1.

• The tetragrammaton in Hebrew is four letters.
• It's translated as "The Eternal"
• The tetragrammaton's gematria: 26 ( 13+13 / אֶחָד + אֶחָד )
• אֶחָד + אֶחָד is 2

See what I mean?

The other problem is that 3 letter words in Hebrew are very common. Because of this the first correspondence is insignificant.

No, I don't see what you mean. Sir, please respect me.

Greetings Adam,

I assume you are a brother in Christ. I appreciate your interest in things spiritual. Could i invite you to view my conversation with Harel13 regarding the merits of Christianity as opposed to that of Judaism. I address the Trinity issue from a similar but slightly different observation than yours. You can find our discussion on this forum under (Religious Debates) then click ( Scriptural Debates), above that you can click on (find threads and it should come up.

Respectfully,
Anthony H Miller
