Biblical Numerics
VALUES
The numeric value of a word is the sum of the numeric values of its letters. The placement value of a letter is the number of the place the letter occupies in the alphabet. The total value of a letter, word, or phrase is the sum of its numeric and placement values.
The Hebrews and Greeks went further in their Gematria than the Romans and used every letter of their alphabets to express a numeric figure (Dual purpose). Below are the letter values for both alphabets:
