For 3000 years a code in the Bible has remained hidden. Now it's been unlocked by computer. It may reveal the future. The code was broken by an Israeli mathematician, who presented the proof in a science journal. It has been confirmed by mathematicians around the world. This book is the 1st full account of a scientific discovery that may change the world, told by a skeptical secular reporter who became part of the story. The code foretells events that happened thousands of years after the Bible was written. It foresaw both Kennedy assassinations, the Oklahoma City bombing, the election of Clinton--everything from WWII to Watergate, from the Holocaust to Hiroshima, from the Moon landing to the collision of a comet with Jupiter. In a few dramatic cases detailed predictions were found in advance--& the events then happened exactly as predicted. The date the Gulf War would begin was found weeks before the war started. The date of the Jupiter collision was found months before the blast. The author of this book, investigative reporter Michael Drosnin, himself found the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin predicted in the Bible more than a year before the murder--& personally warned the Prime Minister. After the assassination, as predicted, when predicted, he was asked to brief the new Prime Minister of Israel & the chief of its intelligence agency, the Mossad. This book is based on Drosnin's five-year investigation. The author interviewed all the experts, here & abroad. He spent many weeks with the mathematician who discovered the code, Dr Eliyahu Rips, & he met with mathematicians at Harvard, Yale & Hebrew Univ. He talked to a senior code breaker at the US National Security Agency, who confirmed that there is a code in the Bible that reveals the future. No one yet knows if the Bible code accurately foretells what's yet to come. But the code may be a warning to this world of unprecedented danger, perhaps the real Apocalypse, a nuclear World War. In any event, the Bible code forces us to accept what the Bible itself can only ask us to believe--that we are not alone. Does the code describe an inevitable future, or a series of possible futures whose ultimate outcome we can still decide?

“The process by which these supernatural events are authenticated is expertly told by John Thavis, one of the world’s leading Vaticanologists. In fact, that a book on so secretive and complex a topic is so deeply researched, beautifully written, and artfully told is something of a small miracle itself.”—James Martin, S.J., author of Jesus: A PilgrimageFrom the New York Times bestselling author of The Vatican Diaries, a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at how the Vatican investigates claims of miraculous eventsApocalyptic prophecies and miraculous apparitions are headline-grabbing events that often put the Catholic Church’s concept of “rational faith” at odds with the passion of its more zealous followers. To some, these claims teeter on the edge of absurdity. Others see them as evidence of a private connection with God. For the Vatican, the issue is much more nuanced as each supposed miraculous event could have serious theological and political consequences. In response, the Vatican has developed a highly secretive and complex evaluation system to judge the authenticity of supernatural phenomena. Former journalist John Thavis uses his thirty years’ experience covering the Vatican to shed light on this little-known process, revealing deep internal debates on the power of religious relics, private revelations, exorcisms, and more. Enlightening and accessible to Catholics and non-Catholics alike, the book illustrates the Church’s struggle to balance the tension between traditional beliefs and contemporary skepticism.
