783,137 words in the kjv bible ?

Well, it took astronomers centuries to debate about the #center of the #universe, and it appears like it really is not that simple to determine the #center verse of the #Bible.

I’m certainly not going to bother counting!

The Centre of the Bible
https://truebibleteaching.com/index.php/the-centre-of-the-bible/
The truth is there are 31,102 verses in the King James Bible. Therefore there is no single middle verse. You cannot have a middle verse with an even number of verses. However there are two middle verses. These would be verses 15,551 and 15,552 (Psalms 103:1-2.)

PSALM 103:1-2

BLESS the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

These are the middle two verses of the King James Bible. Both verses start with “Bless the LORD, O my soul”. Verse 1 continues – and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Verse 2 concludes with – and forget not all his benefits. These are powerful words coming from the two center verses of the Book.

Now let’s count the words in these two middle verses. There are twenty-eight. That’s seven quadrupled (7 times 4) instead of seven doubled (7 times 2.) Here we have seven compounded twice as much.

Now let’s see if we can find some middle words in the center of God’s middle verses. Yes, I see four (bless his holy name.) There are twelve words on one side of this phrase and twelve words on the other side. So the King James Bible has bless his holy name right in the center of the two middle verses!

This phrase also has exactly twice as many words (12) on each side of it. God loves the number twelve also. Next to the number seven, it is his favorite number. He uses it a lot in his word. For example there were twelve apostles and twelve tribes of Israel. There are twelve manner of fruits bared by the tree of life. It is the number of authority and power. What else would you expect in the center of God’s Holy Bible? Bless his holy name.

PSALM 138:2…I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

If you are curious about the #middle #words, let’s get it right. The numbers below are from the King James Bible.

Middle Books

There are 66 books which means there is no middle book of the Bible. Micah and Nahum are the 33rd and 34th book respectively.

What does this mean about Micah and Nahum? Nothing.

Middle Chapter

There are 1,189 chapters in the Bible. The middle chapter is the 595th chapter which is Psalm 117.

What does this mean about Psalm 117? Nothing. It is divinely inspired the same as every other chapter. Psalm 117 is in the context of the Bible talking about Israel’s kingdom.

Middle Verses

There are 31,102 verses in the Bible. There is no middle verse, but Psalm 103:1-2 are the 15,551st and 15,552nd verses, respectively.

Does this add any more meaning to Psalm 103:1-2 that we didn’t already know? No, it doesn’t.

Middle Words

The middle word of the Bible is either “in”, “that”, “thou”, “of”, or “awake” depending on if you include the superscriptions in the Psalms and the epistle postscripts.

There are 789,629 words in the Bible without any of those extras. The 394,815th word in the Bible is found in Psalm 59:3. It is “in”.

The Bible contains 31,102 verses (KJV). Because this total is an even number, there is no exact middle verse. Instead, two verses meet in the middle: Psalm 103:1–2. There are 15,500 verses before these two verses and 15,500 after them.
Sometimes, Psalm 118:8 is mistakenly referred to as the middle verse of the Bible. This verse says, "It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man." This is a great reminder. But, if you are playing a Bible trivia game, it is not the correct answer to the question of What is the middle verse of the Bible?

The middle chapter in the Bible is Psalm 117, but since chapters have varying numbers of verses, the middle verses do not fall in the middle chapter.

The 21st verse, ch. VII of #Ezra, has all the letters of the #alphabet.

In Modern astronomy, the nine stars are called- Lambda (Shaula), Epsilon, Mu-1, Iota-1, Theta, Eta, Zeta, Kappa and Upsilon (Lesath) Scorpionis. All these stars lie at the end of the Scorpio constellation, however, astrologically, they form the part of the Sagittarius star sign.

Symbolized by the “a tied bunch of roots”, this Nakshatra is associated with the “root” of everything. It means that Moola Nakshatra deals with all the #hidden #realms, things, events, motives and secret affairs on the earthly plane.

It alsp depicts the meaning “rooted” which signifies collecting or tying up what is owned by one. Explaining in-depth, this Nakshatra helps natives to gather necessary tools from the past that are required to accomplish goals in the present. In #ancient texts, Moola is referred to as “ #Foundation #Star” or “the root” or “the #original”. It was associated with the root of diseases (virus, bacteria etc.) and #medicine production. It was also related to constraints and limitations that hold the energies of natives to scatter away.

The presiding deity of Moola constellation, Nritti is the daughter of #Adharma (unrighteousness) and #Himsa (violence). She is the mother of #Mrityu (death) and #Bhaya (fear). In #Vedic texts, Nritti is named as destructive demon and #Alaxmi, #Goddess of #poverty, misfortune and calamity.

In #VedicAstrology, Mula is considered a very powerful Nakshatra with respect to the material realm. It offers worldly status, prosperity and material achievements.
