The number of your name

Paseah (פסח) stands in the Torah as a word of its own — 12 times. First in Exodus 12:11.

Your word in the Torah

The word פסח — “Passover” — has the same number as your name. Here is the verse where it first appears:

וככה תאכלו אתו מתניכם חגרים נעליכם ברגליכם ומקלכם בידכם ואכלתם אתו בחפזון פסח הוא לה׳
Exodus 12:11

The verse of your name

Neither the Pentateuch nor the whole Tanakh has a verse that begins with פ and ends with ח. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.

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 to read your number

Fact. The letters of the name פסח add up to 148. Plain addition — you can check it yourself.

Meaning. There is a Torah word with the same number — פסח (“Passover”). A matching sum does not mean the word is 'about you'; it is a reason to look at what in it matters to you.

A question for yourself. What in this do you recognise in yourself — and what would you like to strengthen?

Practice. This week: open the verse of your name, read it slowly three times and write down one thought that stays with you.

פסח
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is פסח. A Tanakh name: the name of two Israelites (first in Ezra 2:49; 4 mentions in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 148 — the same as the Torah word פסח, “Passover”. That number points to Torah page 148 of 354 — in the portion Ki Tisa. What that portion is about: The half-shekel for the census; the golden calf and the broken tablets; the thirteen attributes of mercy; the second tablets. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Paseah” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: פסח. A name from the Tanakh — its Tanakh spelling is used. If your name is spelled differently, correct the Hebrew spelling and the report is recomputed.
Adding up the letters of the name פסח gives 148.
148
The number 148 is the Torah word פסח — «Passover» (Exodus 12:11).

✓ Verify

This number is shared with 3 other name(s) out of the 2,980 in the index.

Pesach is 148; netzach, “eternity”, is 148.
The number 148, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 148 in the book of Shmot (Exodus).
The verse this place falls on is Shmot (Exodus) 32:14:
וַיִּנָּחֶם ה׳ עַל־הָרָעָה אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר לַעֲשׂוֹת לְעַמּוֹ פ
And HaShem repented of the evil which He said He would do unto His people.
This is from the portion Ki Tisa. What it is about: The half-shekel for the census; the golden calf and the broken tablets; the thirteen attributes of mercy; the second tablets.
Other 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) — 148. A Torah word with the same number is פסח — “Passover” (Exodus 12:11).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 22. A Torah word with the same number is יחד — “together” (Genesis 13:6).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 40. A Torah word with the same number is חלב — “fat” (Genesis 4:4).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 696. A Torah word with the same number is הארצת — “the lands” (Genesis 26:3).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 10064.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 368. A Torah word with the same number is חמישי — “fifth” (Genesis 1:23).
The letters that come out are וחס — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 74. A Torah word with the same number is עד — “until, as far as” (Genesis 3:19).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 619. A Torah word with the same number is אחרית — “end, latter days” (Genesis 49:1).
The number 148 appears in the classical books 15 times across 8 works. The earliest mention is ספר הפליאה (~1390).
The name פסח appears in the Torah as a word 12 times. The first time is Exodus 12:11. Another 14 times it stands with prefixes — “and”, “in”, “the”.

How it is counted

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.
