About

Details of HaimShore.Blog

In this personal blog I aim to express thoughts and ideas, related to my scientific research work, in minimally technical terms.

A link to my  book, “Coincidences in the Bible and in biblical Hebrew”, allows free download.

My research work has recently concentrated on three areas:

  • Response Modeling Methodology (RMM);
  • Bible and biblical Hebrew;
  • Statistical applications.

Additional entries on this blog include podcasts, videos and posts relating to general subjects (find details and links on List of Posts).

An authorized list of my publications may be found, in a PDF file, here.

Details about some of these are given below.

1. RMM

Developing a new statistical modeling approach, denoted Response Modeling Methodology (RMM). The underlying ideas and motivation that have led to developing the new approach, and its implication to the practice of statistics, are discussed in various blog entries, tagged “My research in statistics” (see link to Wikipedia entry below).

2. Bible and biblical Hebrew

Analyses relating to the Hebrew Bible and to biblical Hebrew. Results from some of these research efforts have been summarized in my book: “Coincidences in the Bible and in Biblical Hebrew” (2nd Ed., 2012). Related materials and additional commentaries, not included in the book, are posted in various blog entries (or linked to them).

The book in its entirety is now available for free download:

haim-shore_coincidences-in-the-bible-and-in-biblical-hebrew_feb-2014.

Bookmarks allow reaching easily any desired chapter, Table of Contents (TOC) or Table of Figures (activate bookmarks in Adobe Acrobat Reader).

3. Statistical Applications:

  • Developing a new approach, based on RMM and on modern principles of Statistical Process Control (SPC), to modeling and monitoring fetal-growth. This research effort is conducted by a team of researchers, which includes members from the Open University of Israel and from Soroka Medical Center (affiliated to Ben-Gurion University);
  • Modeling RMM-based growth-curves (pre-birth or post-birth), using non-linear quantile regression;
  • Modeling the distribution of surgery duration and monitoring it via SPC. This research effort aims to provide managers with forecast and control tools that would enable better utilization of operating rooms. Three related articles have by now (2022) been published.

Published literature, relating to these areas and others, may be found on my ResearchGate Page , and on other pages (see links below).

An additional area that my blog addresses (unlike the previous three, I do not classify it as scientific research):

4. Current Historical Coincidences

In my book (item 2 above) I detail some curious historical coincidences that have appeared over the years in Jewish history  (Chapter 20 therein). Two examples are the constant presence of adverse Hebrew-language connotations to names of historical adversaries of the Jewish people (names that had not originated in the Hebrew language), and the strange start date in the Hebrew-year calendar of the second Gulf war (March, 2003) a day after the first Gulf war abruptly ended (February, 1991). Posts in this category expound current historical coincidences that are interesting and surprising. However, they should be perceived for what they are, namely, coincidences (or not..).

Professor, I love your book, its not a one time read! I keep the book as a reference and have read most of it at least 5 times.
I have been searching for any research into the “shape” of the Jewish calendar. I intuitively believe there is a 3D TYPE structure in the calander. I find many articles and explanations about the cyclical nature of the clander but none that go beyond that basic thought, which is 2D. Genesis states that the moon and stars will be for, days, and seasons. There is a utube video showing the movenment of the earth in space as it spines like a corkscrew over the centuries. I think the calander would have similar “shape” (there may be a better word). Are there any statistical analysis or other sources you have read that addresses this thought in any form? Or, as a learned man whom I respect, do you think my thought is “on track” or am I really missing it?

Hello Professor Shore,

I was hoping you could help me in understanding what I’m doing wrong. I was working out the Hebrew Numeric Values for the Moon, Earth, and Sun as stated in your book but I’m coming up with something different for Earth (Eretz). Earth in the Hebrew is ארץ. The numeric value for Aleph is 1 and 200 for Resh, but where I am stuck is I show 900 for Tsade rather than 90 because it is a Final Tsade. I am looking at the Hebrew wrong?

Thank you for help!

I’ve just finished your book, and WOW! Amazing!
But I have a doubt. On Chapter 8, where you talk about the planets, you wrote:
“One can easily understand why the source of the Hebrew general name for planets is mazalot, and why mazal also means ‘luck’. Planets are supposed to affect our lives, and their influence drips down to ‘make a difference’ in our lives.”
Astrology? I have a better explanation for that: in ancient times, Ptolemy’s geocentric model couldn’t explain the planets’ trajectories. That’s why they were called πλάνητες ἀστέρες (planētes asteres, “wandering stars” in Greek). Merriam-Webster’s definition of wander is “to move about without a fixed course, aim, or goal”. That’s probably why pagans associated their gods with planets. And that apparently uncertain behavior of planets could be the real reason why the Hebrew name for planet also means ‘luck’. What do you think?

Like

Hello Nil,

Thank you for your kind comment. I am glad you liked the book and its contents.

Your suggested connection between planets (“Mazalot”) and “Luck”, as expressing ancient sentiment about the (then) unexplained random “wandering” of the planets, could form an excellent alternative explanation, were it not “extra-terrestrial” to Jewish thought. According to the latter (and I believe shared also by all other monotheistic faiths), nothing is random about what takes place in our lives. Rather, all result from human conduct and human moral choices. Therefore, the word-root of “Mazal” is not “random” but rather “pouring down”, implying abundance pouring down unto humans from Heaven (via “Mazalot”) as Divine reaction to humans’ moral conduct. Observe, for example, the repeated theme in Scripture of the ultimate abundance “pouring down”, namely, rain; The emphasis is always on the Divine letting rain or barring rain as Divine “allowance” or punishing. In summary, since “Mazalot” implies “pouring down”, I believe that the right explanation should be based on a perception of abundance pouring down rather than random (unexplainable..) trajectories of the planets. Of course, your explanation still stands with regard to the then pagan Greek and the Greek language. Per the Hebrew “Mazalot”, however, analysis based on Hebrew word-root structure suggests otherwise.

I appreciate very much your insight and your inputs. Thank you. Haim

Like

I didn’t like your book. I LOVED it.
But how is my theory incompatible with Jewish thought? I am not suggesting they did believe planets’ trajectories were random. I’m just saying they couldn’t understand their order at first (like the Jewish scholars who were puzzled by the word Eretz). While pagans looked at planets and said “Man, those stars are freaks… totally random… they must be divine…”, Hebrew people looked at the same weird stars and said “Those stars seem to be freaks, but there must be some kind of order in their trajectories… after all, nothing is random… we just don’t know that order yet…” You say “the word-root of ‘Mazal’ is not ‘random’ but rather ‘pouring down'”, but you were the one who wrote “mazal also means luck”. I was quoting you. Luck is, by definition, something we can’t foresee. If we could, there would be no casinos. We do have statistics, and we can use it to improve our chances, but we can’t be 100% sure we’ll win (unless we’re cheating). That’s why this chapter reminded me of the word planet’s etymology. And it made sense. Obviously your book would have been even better if ‘mazal’ meant something like ‘order’ or ‘predictable’. That would have been another astounding coincidence for your collection.
Now, I have another doubt on a different chapter, triggered by an atheist friend’s post on Facebook. I would have discussed this other issue with him, but my Hebrew is not as good as my English, so I need help.

Like

Nil,

Thank you for your comment. I did not just liked it, I LOVED it!!

You are right that I have used the word “Luck” as English for the Hebrew “Mazal”; but only for lack of a better word in English. Indeed, the two mean completely different things. You may say in Hebrew “She had Mazal” (for example, escaping unhurt from a car accident), yet in English you need to add a qualifying word: “good luck” or “bad luck”? The reason is, as we have discussed earlier, because Mazal implies abundance flowing down while the English luck only implies a random occurrence. I totally accept your very good explanation of how ancient Israelites probably interpreted differently the unexplainable trajectories of the planets, assuming, due to their monotheistic faith, that there must be overall order in the sky. It is indeed my personal belief that the very religious Newton would not have made the great leap from the paganic view (of different forces implemented by different Deities) to the scientific view (same law applies to a “falling apple” and to the planets) were it not for his strong belief in the Divine imposing order in the form of universal laws.

I will be happy to address any further remarks you might have (as you had indicated in your last comment).

I couldn’t find the Reply link in your last answer, so I hope you don’t mind if I go on here. That might confuse other people who read our conversation, but I had no choice.
Thanks for the clarification! Now I understand what you meant with luck. Something similar happens in my native language. In Portuguese, we have a word for good luck (sorte) and another one for bad luck (azar). In English, luck is usually associated with positive things, but sometimes it means chance, random. Your translation is not bad. I’m the one who misinterpreted that part, because I instantly remembered the origin of the word planet.
The other thing I wanted to ask is about the Genesis. I don’t remember the exact words but what my friend said was something like this: “And in the seventh day God rested because, apparently, omnipotence has limits.” My friend seems to think God needed to rest because He was too tired of creating the universe. I remember what you wrote about the distinction between creating, forming and doing, but the keyword here would be ‘rested’. I don’t think ‘rested’ means God was tired. It simply means he stopped, because, as you said in your book, we are supposed to complete His work. So, what is the Hebrew word usually translated by ‘rest’, and what are its possible meanings?

Like

The word used in the Hebrew Genesis is “Shavat”, which means “ceased” or “stopped”. “Shabbath” derives from same word-root. In modern Hebrew, it is also used to mean “going on strike” (namely, “stopping work”). The Hebrew for resting is “Nach” (from which the Hebrew name of Noah is derived, as specified in Genesis).

I do not know whether God was tired on Friday, I was not there at the time.

Like

Thank you! That’s what I thought, but I had to be sure. So why do they insist in the ‘rested’, rather than ‘ceased’ or ‘stopped’ when translating that part?
Oh, and there is another thing I wanted to ask before, but I couldn’t remember its technical name. Have you ever heard of extremophiles? Because I was wondering if they could fill that gap you mention in the third day from Creation.

Dear prof. Shore,
Yesterday I downloaded your book: “Coincidences in the Bible and in Biblical Hebrew”. So I just started reading the book. On page 24 you use the word “nature” and the numerical value of 86. This would ofcourse support my friend Spinoza’s claim of “Deus sine natura”, but I also was told that the Hebrews didn’t have the concept of “nature” as such. Nature would have been a much younger concept, maybe Greek or Roman. Could you please explain things ? For instance wich Hebrew word you had in mind and its English translation with the numerical value of 86 ?
Hope to hear from you.

Like

Johan, thank for your comment. As I state in the cited reference, I do not deal in my Bible and biblical Hebrew research in Gematria. Therefore, I am responding to you quite reluctantly. The Hebrew word is “Ha-Teva” (the nature) that has numerical value of 86. “Teva” is used in modern Hebrew for “Nature”. I have never investigated when this use started and I believe you are right in asserting that use of this word as such for nature is recent. Yet, you may find use of the root of this word at least in two verses in the Bible in the sense that the Divine has imprinted His law on nature (Proverbs 8:25 and Job 38:6). Therefore there is some basis in the Bible to modern use of Teva as nature. I hope that you find my response satisfactory. Regards, Haim

Rachel, Thank you for your comment. My research is not “a mathematical proof of the Torah”, neither was it intended to be so. In my work on Genesis creation narrative, I have stated that there are three time-scales (refer to Section 22.2 in my book): The scientific time-scale (measured in billions of years since Big-Bang); Genesis Creation time-scale (measured in “Days”); Jewish calendar time-scale (measured in years since creation of Adam and Eve). My research relates only to the first two time-scales and shows that they are in fact identical (only expressed in different time units). Your comment refers to the third time-scale, which I have not addressed at all. To your point: today’s science believes that the Homo-Sapiens, the human species to which we belong according to science, is about 200,000 years old. Translated into billion of years (the scientific time-scale, in billion of years), one obtains the value that you have quoted. I hope that my response answers your question. Haim

Dear Trish, I have read the whole article which you have kindly indicated to me. I believe that too often and too lightly the author jumps from trivial facts to general conclusions (like relating to the fact that Shabbat is mentioned after moon-renewal as indicative of Shabbath relating to celebration of full moon). Furthermore, ignoring that Shabbat in Hebrew derives from same root as “Cease work”, or ignoring at all that Shabbat relates only to cessation of all sorts of “Melachah” (and not to “Avodah”), a distinction in Biblical Hebrew not even mentioned in the article, All these cast some doubt on the validity of the analysis given therein. Please note that these are just superficial first impressions that might have changed if I was privy to all sources mentioned in the article. Bottomline: at this point I doubt the main assertion of the article. Best wishes for the new Hebrew year, Haim.

As I noted in my book and elsewhere, there had been unwillingness even to let my research findings undergo the regular reviewing process, as done with any scientific article submitted for publication. Perhaps editors’ reluctance is somewhat understandable, given the seemingly implausibility of my research statistical findings.

I am looking forward to see your research and will communicate with you privately soon.

Cordially,

Haim

Hi Professor. Intrigued by your research, I plotted HNV for Sun, Moon, and Heavens (Aleph, Mem, Shin summing to 341), and used Pi^2 instead of the ln(diam in km) for Heavens, and found a R^2 value of exactly 1. I thought that was very interesting.

HI Sir and I do hope you are sitting down. For many years I thought Germetria or whatever was so much nonsense and then I finally realized that all was fractions and all was 7 and more importantly that according to the ancient traditions “God” had commanded “his chosen” to keep his word and as you emphasize “Do not change one single letter” . Well I for many years knew there was numerical codes hidden within the numbers in the Bible ( I do not have access to The Torah) but I had no idea, until a Jewish friend at work told me of your work. Now to pit it in perspective I have for many, many years been studying The Giza Plateau and looking for a mathematical code hidden within. I came to the realization that The Giza Plateau was really our solar system in stone but had little corroborating evidence … until you cane along. However because The Torah is adamant that only fractions be used I took the liberty of using what I consider one of the fundamental building block fractions of creation 12 /7 and added 1 to get 19/7 as the log base number and got these values fro the accepted masses of the three heavenly bodies you chose.

(* This comment has been shortened due to its unusual length; Please contact commenter for further details*)

..I am astonished that i would find that value here. But i get so much better. Remember earlier I said i had been trying to prove that The Giza Plateau was in a 9 by 11 ratio well I divided Log value of The Sun using 19/7 as my log base and got 69.816780887204 for Earth I got log value of 57.133208582 Divide the log value of Sun and arth and we get, believe it or not … 1.222 … Sir this is exactly, and I mean exactly in the ratio of 9 to 11. It is almsot scary.

CONCLUSION: .THE TORAH IS THE LONG LOST BOOK OF THOTH AND THE HALL OF RECORDS IS THE GIZA PLATEAU !!!

Thank you so much for the final nail in the coffin or darkness.

AMEN !

A wonderful research. I have sent, to your email, a sample of the Bible explanations which my friend receives from higher worlds and it correlates very nice with your findings. My question to you is: כימה and כסיל are considered stars from Orion group and you connect them with Mercury and Mars. Can you explain, please, why have you chosen to disregard what is considered to be the situation?

Abraham, Thank you for your appreciative words. In my book, based on preliminary explorative analysis that I have conducted, I assume that all names in the Bible referring to celestial objects indeed relate to planets. Later statistical analysis corroborates this assumption to a high degree. For example, sorting planets in an ascending order according to their HNVs (Hebrew Numerical Values) and according to their diameters, shows that for the only three planets, having their names pretty clear (namely, Earth (“Eretz”), Venus (“Mazar”) and Jupiter (“Shachar”)), this trio of planets occupy same ordinal positions in both sorted lists !!!

The calculated probability of this occurring by chance is extremely small. Find more details in Oren Evron’s movie and in my book (Ch. 8). Haim

the point may not be in finding the right scale of time …..because God simply could have worked harder/faster in different days so as to give the appearance that long periods were used (note there would be little to no difference between looking old and being old since both those concepts with time were all created at the same time and only have meaning wrt how the author defines them wrt each other) ..God practically stated that he created them to look or be “old” (2Peter 3:5) but the real point is who or what you put your faith in what God said or do you go with the scientific data that itself was created to have a certain appearance in the first place……… God did it exactly the way he said he did in six days (each day the same amount of “time”/24 hours) However, God accomplished this by working “faster” and or did more in any given 24 hour period so as to give the appearance of great time and the linear correlation to “scientific data” … (since God practicaly bragged about that fact he did) It is fundamentally just a issue of faith…..do you go with your “data” (God said six days but it was realy billions of years) or God did exactly what he said and defined six 24 hour days but manipulated his “work ethic” (how much or little work he did during a “fixed period of time” ie 24hours/ a day) so as to yield the final result with a bonus added for all the faithless…..namely a strong delusions (2thess 2:11)

Allen, The seven days of Genesis are not your regular 24-hour days, as we know them. This is repeated in various verses of the Bible. For example: “..and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of the seven days, on the day that the Lord binds up the breach of his people..” (Isaiah 30:26). Also, the sun and the moon were created on the fourth day. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Haim

I agree that the “&” days of creation may be millenia – and further, there is no need for each ‘day’ to be the exact same length.
Personally, I read “evening” as “morning” as going from a state of dis-order to a state of order. Life itself is maintaining order (keeping entropy at bay)..

As a Christian engineer i have long struggled with the book of Genesis. I believe in the scriptures, but I also find it impossible to ignore the scientific data.

Thank you for your kind comment. Being an engineer who probably knows and understands quantitative analysis, I am sure you are better equipped than most in grasping the importance of identifying the right scale in interpreting Genesis creation story.

Shalom Haim,

I’m reading your book and want to thank you for sharing.
Here is some other coincident I found that is not from the bible but about precision of our universe.
How length of the lunar year fits in our earthly cycles? That I thought could be a part of some other rhythm in our fine tuned universe. So:

Listening about Einstein and Theory of Relativity – one of the examples tells that there is no experimental physical difference between chamber on Earth surface and chamber flying in space with acceleration ~ 9.80665 m/s*s to match Earth gravitational force ~ 9.80665 N/kg

If taken further this means that just because we are all here on Earth matches as if we are flying in accelerating space ship.

Moving with acceleration increases your speed and the maximum speed allowed in the universe is the speed of light 299,792,458 m/s
So out of curiosity how long does it takes for us to reach the limit

299,792,458 m/s divide by 9.80665 m/s*s =30570323 s = 509505 min = 8492 h = about 354 days it takes for an object on the earth surface to reach the same experience as if reaching the speed of light on the space ship.

Every Jewish scientist needs to see this work. I believe that the medical world could be revolutionized by taking the Torah more seriously (until the pharma and device makers realize that the revolution would virtually eliminate their revenue) and untold suffering could be eliminated.

I hope you find the time to continue this work to show the world that the Torah is from outside this time domain from The Divine Author and it can be wholly trusted as the only guide to walking a path that leads to true Shalom.

While we should not need science to validate God it appears we have run so far from Him that we will only believe in Him if science tells us to.

Sounds great but how to know what the torah is saying is the underlying issue. How many recognize the cuneiform roots of lashon kodesh? And the hieroglyphic roots of cuneiform? who knows the meanings of these “pointers”? Words are sounds pointing to concepts or ideas, ie. words are symbols. If words are composed of letters which themselves are symbols (hieroglyphics) — which talmudical reference is taking it to that level? No rebbie in my yeshiva had us studying hieroglyphics or cuneiform. LOL It’s a masquerade of fools LOL

Shalom, Haim!
I came across your site in one of my many searches for better understanding of scripture from original language. I realized some time ago that I was studying from inaccurate translations. I’ve been learning quite a bit here and there in the past few years by learning about Hebrew and by seeing pattrns and correlations (and even abscences). I haven’t yet read your book, but intend to very soon.

I just finished watching a video of your interview with Avi ben Mordechai. Wow!!! :)
During the last 1/3 of the video when you’re talking about “randomness” I experienced a profound shift. The only way I can think of to describe it is that I had the physical feeling of my heart being aligned. It made me think of God’s promise to write His laws on my heart.

I don’t imagine that all of a sudden I’m going to follow all of His laws, but I do believe that God hass caused some kind of shift within me.

I look forward to reading your book along this journey through scripture. I thank God for you. I’m so fascinated and excited by the intelligence and insight God has blessed you with. I’ll be in touch again :)

I actually stumbled on this because I was looking to find the original Hebrew names of the planets and the constellations. A self made Hebrew student saw the words math and Torah and forwarded it to me. The correlations are amazing!!! I’m new to Hebrew (as a busy father of 4) but I’m not new to science confirming the accuracy of the Torah. This material has faith confirmed in it.

Do you have correlated names of the constellations?

The other hand says YOU CANT CHANGE YHWH’s TORAH. Any change leads to improper understanding, and therefore error. Dan 7:25 “the beast shall intend to change the times and the laws”.

Dear Max, thank you for your message and for referencing my research findings. A basic assumption in my research is that all names relating to celestial objects in the Jewish Hebrew Bible (most appear in the ancient book of Job, traditionally attributed to Moses) are names of the planets. My statistical analysis validates this assumption to a large degree. I am aware that in the past some Jewish interpreters of the Hebrew Jewish Bible had assumed that certain names related to constellations of stars (sets of stars visible to our ancestors). In my book (downloadable free from this blog) you may find some analyses relating to traditional names assigned to the planets. However, I differ about that. My statistical analysis, delivering significant results, suggests different names (as shown in the movie). I wish you fruitful research, Haim
