The name Rouz in Hebrew letters is רוז. 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.
רוז
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is רוז. 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 Genesis 49:3. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Rouz” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: רוז. 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) — 15. A Torah word with the same number is זוב — “to flow” (Exodus 3:8).
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) — 844. A Torah word with the same number is בשבעתיכם — “in your Feast of Weeks” (Numbers 28:26).
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 40085.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 619. A Torah word with the same number is אחרית — “end, latter days” (Genesis 49:1).
The letters that come out are גפע — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 153. A Torah word with the same number is פגע — “to meet, entreat” (Genesis 23:8).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 589. A Torah word with the same number is לגרשון — “of Gershon” (Numbers 3:21).
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.
Hebrew is written from right to left. רוז has 3 letters: ר Resh, ו Vav, ז Zayin. The first letter is Resh, the last is Zayin.
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 רוז 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 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 רוז these are ר and ז. The Pentateuch has exactly one such verse — Genesis 49:3:
ראובן בכרי אתה כחי וראשית אוני יתר שאת ויתר עז
This is from the portion Vayechi. What it is about: Jacob blesses Ephraim and Manasseh and all his sons; Jacob's death and burial in Hebron; Joseph's death.
«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.
