This site hosts active research focusing upon the possibility of a consistent, literary numbering system inherent in Scripture. The ongoing work is presented free of charge. Enjoy, engage, participate!

“Intro to PebbleCounting” concisely describes the literary counting hypothesis. “Psalm 23” and “Psalms 1 and 2” include short videos of the literary counting process in action. “Ruth” and “Esther” present literary counting of these complete books with parallel Ancient Hebrew and English languages. “Ephesians” presents literary counting of this New Testament letter with parallel Greek and English languages.

This collection presents literary counting for complete and partial books of Scripture using the English language for an approximately word-by-word translation from the original languages. This collection further demonstrates the possibility that literary counting was consistently employed across the range of languages, time periods, genres, and authors of Scripture. These are living documents that are occasionally updated and sharpened.
