The name Zeresh in Hebrew letters is זרש. 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.
זרש
In short
Your name in Hebrew letters is זרש. A Tanakh name: Haman's wife (first in Esther 5:10; 4 mentions in the Tanakh). Adding up the numbers of its letters gives 507 — the same as the Torah word שזר, “to twist”. That number points to Torah page 153 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. The verse that begins with the first letter of your name and ends with the last is Lamentations 3:19. Each of these steps is laid out below with its sources. Every figure can be checked by hand.
You wrote “Zeresh” — this exact spelling is what was calculated: זרש. 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 זרש gives 507.
507
The number 507 is the Torah word שזר — «to twist» (Exodus 26:1).
But when Moses went in before HaShem that He might speak with him, he took the veil off, until he came out; and he came out; and spoke unto the children of Israel that which he was commanded.
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) — 507. A Torah word with the same number is שזר — “to twist” (Exodus 26:1).
Reduced, each letter to one digit (mispar katan) — 12. A Torah word with the same number is הוא — “he, it” (Genesis 2:11).
Ordinal: alef 1, bet 2 … tav 22 (mispar siduri) — 48. A Torah word with the same number is יובל — “ram's horn, jubilee” (Exodus 19:13).
Cumulative: a letter plus all letters before it (mispar kidmi) — 1918.
Squares of the letter values (mispar perati) — 130049.
Building: the sum grows with each letter (mispar bone’eh) — 721. A Torah word with the same number is אשתך — “your wife” (Genesis 3:17).
The letters that come out are עגב — not a word that stands in the Pentateuch. Atbash: letters mirrored, alef for tav, bet for shin, and the number of the resulting word — 75. A Torah word with the same number is כהן — “priest” (Genesis 14:18).
Filling: the names of the letters are counted — alef, bet, gimel… (milui) — 937.
The number 507 appears in the classical books 1 time across 1 work. The earliest mention is רש"י על בראשית.

The number of the day, every morning
Every date has a number too. Once a year it will match the number of your name — 507. The channel posts one number a day, one verse and the Torah page it lands on. Nothing after it, no mailing list.
The name זרש has no such day. The numbers of the dates in a year cover 326 values out of 940, and 507 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.
