Page "Bible code" Paragraph 11

Jewish culture has a long tradition of interpretation, annotation, and commentary regarding the Bible, leading to both exegesis and eisegesis ( insightful and false interpretations ).

The Bible code can be viewed as a part of this tradition, albeit one of the more controversial parts.

Throughout history, many Jewish, and later Christian, scholars have attempted to find hidden or coded messages within the Bible's text, notably including Isaac Newton.
