ז׳וס
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is ז׳וס. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 73 — the same as the Torah word גמל, “camel”. That number points to Torah page 73 of 354 — in the portion Miketz. What that portion is about: Pharaoh's dreams of seven cows and seven ears; Joseph rules Egypt; the brothers come for grain; the cup in Benjamin's sack. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Judges 1:30. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Juste” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: ז׳וס. 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 ז׳וס gives 73.
73
The number 73 is the Torah word גמל — «camel» (Genesis 12:16).
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph: 'Forasmuch as G-d hath shown thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou.
This is from the portion Miketz. What it is about: Pharaoh's dreams of seven cows and seven ears; Joseph rules Egypt; the brothers come for grain; the cup in Benjamin's sack.
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) — 73. A Torah word with the same number is גמל — “camel” (Genesis 12:16).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 19. A Torah word with the same number is גוי — “nation” (Genesis 10:5).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 28. A Torah word with the same number is כח — “strength” (Genesis 4:12).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 304. A Torah word with the same number is חרמון — “Mount Hermon” (Deuteronomy 3:8).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 3685.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 93. A Torah word with the same number is צבא — “host, army” (Genesis 2:1).
The letters that come out are עפח — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 158. A Torah word with the same number is ספיח — “aftergrowth” (Leviticus 25:5).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 199. A Torah word with the same number is צדקה — “righteousness” (Genesis 15:6).
The number 73 appears in the classical books 36 times across 21 works. The earliest mention is מדרש לפירושים (~1450?).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 73. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
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.
