Kerry - I’m sure you’re familiar with the way numerology was used in the old religious writings. I’m certainly no authority, but many of the Persian people I know seem so schooled in it that they can just read things and understand the authors meaning by the numbers that relate to the words. No examples come to mind exactly, but it is almost like a hidden language that they are able to read. It's just not able to relate to an English translation, but only in the originals - they can read English relate that and get the numbers somehow. If you ever read the "Dawnbreakers" I think much of this is alluded too.
