The name Beeri in Hebrew letters is בארי. Below: how its number adds up, which page of the Torah it falls on and what verse stands there. Everything is computed, nothing is guessed.
בארי
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is בארי. A Tanakh name: a Hittite and an Israelite (first in Genesis 26:34; 2 mentions in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “fountained”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 213. That number points to Torah page 213 of 354 — in the portion Bechukotai. What that portion is about: “If you walk in My statutes”: blessings for faithfulness and admonitions; vows and valuations; the tithe. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Exodus 19:1. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Beeri” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: בארי. 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.
And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; and I will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
This is from the portion Bechukotai. What it is about: “If you walk in My statutes”: blessings for faithfulness and admonitions; vows and valuations; the tithe.
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) — 213.
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 6. A Torah word with the same number is בד — “alone, apart” (Genesis 2:18).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 33. A Torah word with the same number is גל — “heap of stones” (Genesis 31:46).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 854. A Torah word with the same number is מחתתו — “his fire pan” (Leviticus 10:1).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 40105.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 421. A Torah word with the same number is אתך — “with you” (Genesis 6:18).
The letters that come out are שתגמ — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 743. A Torah word with the same number is משגת — “can afford” (Leviticus 14:21).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1053.
The number 213 appears in the classical books 14 times across 4 works. The earliest mention is עץ חיים (~1573).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 213. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.

For an engraving, a sign or a tattoo, show the spelling to someone who reads Hebrew: transliterating a name is a choice, not the only option.
The name בארי appears in the Torah as a word 1 time. The first time is Genesis 26:34.
The verse of your name
There is a custom: at the end of the prayer one says a Torah verse that begins with the first letter of one's name and ends with its last. For בארי these are ב and י. The Pentateuch has 16 such verses. The first of them is Exodus 19:1:
בחדש השלישי לצאת בני ישראל מארץ מצרים ביום הזה באו מדבר סיני
This is from the portion Yitro. What it is about: Jethro's counsel on judges; standing at Sinai; the Ten Utterances; “you shall not make yourself an idol”.
«And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid; and I will cause evil beasts to cease out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.»
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.
