The name Tomas in Hebrew letters is תומס. 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.
תומס
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is תומס. The name came through Aramaic: תאומא, “twin”. The word is in the Torah: “and behold, there were twins in her womb” (Genesis 25:24). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 506 — the same as the Torah word שור, “ox”. That number points to Torah page 152 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 “Tomas” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: תומס. 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 תומס gives 506.
506
The number 506 is the Torah word שור — «ox» (Genesis 32:6).
The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep. Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib, for in the month Abib thou camest out from Egypt.
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) — 506. A Torah word with the same number is שור — “ox” (Genesis 32:6).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 20. A Torah word with the same number is היה — “to be, become” (Genesis 1:2).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 56. A Torah word with the same number is יום — “day” (Genesis 1:5).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1916.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 165236.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 1758.
The letters that come out are אפיח — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 99. A Torah word with the same number is טמן — “to hide” (Genesis 35:4).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 618. A Torah word with the same number is בריתו — “his covenant” (Exodus 2:24).
The number 506 appears in the classical books 24 times across 17 works. The earliest mention is בעל הטורים על התורה (~1300).

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 506. 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. תומס has 4 letters: ת Tav, ו Vav, מ Mem, ס Samekh. The first letter is Tav, the last is Samekh.
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 תומס 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
Neither the Pentateuch nor the whole Tanakh has a verse that begins with ת and ends with ס. That happens with some letter pairs and means nothing in itself.
The name תומס has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 506 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.
