The name Nehushta in Hebrew letters is נחשתא. 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.
נחשתא
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is נחשתא. A Tanakh name: an Israelite woman (first in 2 Kings 24:8; 1 mention in the Tanakh). Meaning, per Strong’s dictionary (1890): “copper”. Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 759 — the same as the Torah word והשלחתי, “and I will send”. That number points to Torah page 51 of 354 — in the portion Vayetzei. What that portion is about: The dream of the ladder to heaven; Jacob with Laban: Leah and Rachel; eleven sons are born; the return. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Isaiah 24:10. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Nehushta” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: נחשתא. 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 נחשתא gives 759.
759
The number 759 is the Torah word והשלחתי — «and I will send» (Leviticus 26:22).
The number 759, as the remainder modulo 354, points to Torah page 51 in the book of Bereshit (Genesis).
The verse this place falls on is Bereshit (Genesis) 30:34:
וַיֹּאמֶר לָבָן הֵן לוּ יְהִי כִדְבָרֶךָ
And Laban said: 'Behold, would it might be according to thy word.'
This is from the portion Vayetzei. What it is about: The dream of the ladder to heaven; Jacob with Laban: Leah and Rachel; eleven sons are born; the return.
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) — 759. A Torah word with the same number is והשלחתי — “and I will send” (Leviticus 26:22).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 21. A Torah word with the same number is אך — “only, surely” (Genesis 7:23).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 66. A Torah word with the same number is כמו — “like, as” (Genesis 19:15).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 2822.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 252565.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1983.
The letters that come out are טסבאת — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 472. A Torah word with the same number is עבת — “cord, twisted work” (Exodus 28:14).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 1401.
The number 759 appears in the classical books 1 time across 1 work. The earliest mention is יקרא דשבתא.

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 759. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
Hebrew is written from right to left. נחשתא has 5 letters: נ Nun, ח Chet, ש Shin, ת Tav, א Alef. The first letter is Nun, the last is Alef.
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 נחשתא 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
The Pentateuch has no verse that begins with נ and ends with א. The custom allows the whole Tanakh — the Prophets and the Writings have 7 such verses. The first of them is Isaiah 24:10:
The name נחשתא has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 759 is not among them. Half of all names are like this — neither good nor bad, just a fact of counting.
Add a date of birth and the verse of meeting from that week's portion is added to the reading.
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.
