P12 – Weinberg asserted that learning Torah is chiefly about having fun.
P13 -- “Don't worry,” he reasured her, “if he finds the srudies too difficult he can always go back to neclear physics!” |_ -- Perpetually in a frenzy of motions, he easily could have maintained a second—or third—career as a stand-up comic.
P15 – And what were the implicatiuons for other religions?
P16 – What would it mean if the most radically fundamentalist-seeming of propositions, apparently linked most tight to but one faith, were preoven valid using the most rigorous means of science?|_ -- “prove” that Jesus isn't the Messiah. Such “negative proofs” were as badly done as the Christian “positive proofs.”
P24 – Like the fabled river Erethusa, which appears in one place then dives underground to appear again far away, so the mysterious Bible Code appears and disappears throughtout more than three thousand years of history.P20 – Much of what I cannot say now, and have left out of this book, is vey likely to see print quite soon, But what I can discuss now is astonishing enough.P21 – widely rumoured that during the Gulf War some kind of supersecret use had in fact been made of the codes by the Mossad. -w- hiatus -w-

P28 |_ 'The 'The Holy One, blessed ber He, united His name with Abraham.'” (The Zohar—the sourcebook of kabbalah whose roots go back to the first centyry of the common era—has myuch more detailed explanation of exactly how God accoumplished this, explaining the sequence of complesx letter permutations via an ancient method called Atbash.
P29 |_ *For *For consistency, final forms of Hebrew letters are not used. These forms have no beraing on the meaning of a text, but simply aid in the reading word breaks when the text is read in the usual way.

It is a story about a small town. It is not a gossipy yarn; nor is it a dry monotonous account, full of such customary "fill-ins" as "romantic moonlight casting murky shadows down a long, winding cuntry road," - There is not a single e in this passage.P39 |_ Ribs entered the Samaritan version.. The results were again startling: twenty-two of the twenty-five "Aarons" found in the Jewish Jewish Torah disappeared; seven new ones took their place of a total of ten.
