Your name in the Torah: in Hebrew letters, as a number, with the verse it lands on and the sources. Computed, not divined. Free.
Your name
You did not choose your name. It was given — almost always after someone who came before you.
The number of your name is 80. The Torah word עוד — “iteration or continuance” — has the same.
The verse of your name
The Pentateuch has no verse that begins with א and ends with ג. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — we count only the Torah so far.
The week you were born
Add your date of birth and we will show which portion the world was reading the week you appeared, and whether it holds a word of your number.
How rare this number is
A word with the number 80 appears in 25 of the 54 weekly portions.
What is left
We counted your name in one system. There are nine, and they give nine different numbers. When several systems lead to the same portion, the tradition reads that theme as strong. So far you have one.
Below — how this was counted, letter by letter.
Almog — The customary Hebrew spelling of this name. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.
אלמוג
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is אלמוג. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 80 — the same as the Torah word עוד, “iteration or continuance”. That number points to Torah page 80 of 354 — in the portion Vayigash. What that portion is about: Judah pleads for Benjamin; Joseph reveals himself to his brothers; Jacob goes down to Egypt; the family settles in Goshen. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. There are no predictions or judgments here — only the text of the Torah and arithmetic you can check.
Adding up the letters of the name אלמוג gives 80.
80
The number 80 is the Torah word עוד — «iteration or continuance» (Genesis 4:25).
The number 80, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 80 in the book of Bereshit (Genesis). These are its opening words:
ונאמר אל אדני יש לנו אב זקן וילד …
The verse this place falls on is Bereshit (Genesis) 44:19:
אֲדֹנִי שָׁאַל אֶת־עֲבָדָיו לֵאמֹר הֲיֵשׁ־לָכֶם אָב אוֹ־אָח
My lord asked his servants, saying: Have ye a father, or a brother?
This is from the portion Vayigash. What it is about: Judah pleads for Benjamin; Joseph reveals himself to his brothers; Jacob goes down to Egypt; the family settles in Goshen.
The same number, 80, is given by these biblical names:
עי · גבעה · עדו · כלל
Nine ways of counting
The tradition counts the same name in several ways. The main one is above: each letter is its number. The other eight are old and checkable too; each gives its own number, and many of them have a Torah word with the same number.
Final letters as 500–900 (mispar gadol) — 80. A Torah word with the same number is עוד — “iteration or continuance” (Genesis 4:25).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 17. A Torah word with the same number is טוב — “good” (Genesis 1:4).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 35. A Torah word with the same number is גבל — “to twist as arope” (Exodus 19:12).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 278. A Torah word with the same number is עבור — “crossed, i.e.” (Genesis 3:17).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 2546.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 260. A Torah word with the same number is מכר — “to sell, literally” (Genesis 25:31).
The word that comes out is תכיפר. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 710. A Torah word with the same number is שית — “to place” (Genesis 3:15).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 360. A Torah word with the same number is שני — “double, i.e. second” (Genesis 1:8).
The number 80 appears in the classical books 68 times across 24 works. The earliest mention is פירוש קדמון על ספר חסידים (~1200).
The name אלמוג does not stand as a word in the Pentateuch — as with most names, including many Tanakh names from the later books.
The verse of your name
There is no verse in the Pentateuch that begins with א and ends with ג. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.
Each Hebrew letter has a number; a word's number is their sum (alef 1 … tav 400). The page is the remainder modulo 354: the Torah divided into 354 pages of 861 letters, as the lunar year has 354 days. Everything can be checked by hand.
