From the Aleppo Codex to AI

In this book, currently available only in Hebrew, Dr. Guy Shaked presents the first comprehensive examination of the “six plus change” pattern in the Bible.

Much has already been written about the significance of the number seven in the Bible, and one might wonder what remains to be discovered. However, the uniqueness of this book lies in shifting the focus from the number seven toward the turning point—the fundamental change that occurs precisely after a sequence of six stages or events. This unique perspective, whose discovery in the biblical text was made possible only by the development of artificial intelligence, is revealed throughout the book in a variety of contexts and meanings, and sometimes in surprising places.

Employing an approach inspired by the writings of the renowned biblical scholar Prof. M.D. Cassuto, the pattern unfolds across several layers: beginning with the familiar level of the creation story and the commandment of the Sabbath; moving through a fresh illumination of the seventh month and its festivals (Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot); and culminating in a fascinating revelation of the pattern within biblical poetry, in a layer that has remained hidden from sight until now.

A must-read for all Bible enthusiasts seeking to deepen their reading through an innovative and captivating lens.
