Meaning of Numbers in the Bible
.
The number 666 symbolizes the perfection of man's overall system
that is separated from God and under the constant influence of Satan the devil. Six in the Bible represents incompleteness
or imperfection. Man's system on earth is made up of three parts, each
represented by a six in the numeric 666. The first six of the number 666 means
the perfectly false religions of man under Satan's lead. The second six is for
the deceived false governments of this world. The third six of 666 is symbolic
of mankind's self-centered economic system. The
number 666 represents the world and all that it does to appease and gratify
human nature. The last special adversary is the Antichrist, whose name numbers to 666.

As anyone who is a new Bible student
quickly learns, the meaning of six hundred sixty six (666) is derived from the
number and mark of the Beast Power discussed in the book of
Revelation.
The number 666 symbolizes the
perfection of man's overall system that is separated from God and under the
constant influence of Satan the devil.
Six in the Bible represents, by itself,
incompleteness or imperfection, as it is one less than seven (which symbolizes
completeness).
Man's system on earth is made up of
three parts, each represented by a six in the numeric 666.
The first six of the number 666 means
the perfectly false religions of man under Satan's lead.
The devil is the god of this world, and allowed to deceive mankind,
until the return of Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 4:3-4).
The second six is for the deceived
false governments of this world.
The third six of 666 is symbolic of mankind's self-centered economic system.
The number 666 represents the world and
all that it does to appease and gratify human nature.
The book of 1 John (written by the
apostle John who also wrote Revelation) contains an often-overlooked set of
three verses that uses a subtle form of 6.
This hidden form of six, found in the
total times the word 'world' is used, warns believers to separate
themselves from man's system which is soon to die (John 2:15-17).

number six-hundred sixty-six
In order to show that the book of Revelation was inspired, Ireneaus (120-202 AD), an early church
apologist, noted that he had consulted the 'most approved and ancient copies'
of Revelation for verification of this mystical numeric.
How is the number 666
related to wealth?
King Solomon, after assuming the throne
of Israel upon his father David's death, soon became wealthy.
Although money streamed to him due to
the heavy taxation of the Israelites (see 1 Kings 4:24), it was the gold that came to him through a variety of
other ways that made him the richest man alive.
Every year he received 666 talents of gold (1 Kings 10:14-15), a figured confirmed by the first century historian Josephus (Antiquities of the Jews, Book 8, Chapter 7).

the Biblical Meaning of 666
Three people in the Bible stand out as
special adversaries of God and his people.
They are Goliath the giant who fought King David, King
Nebuchadnezzar of the Babylonian Empire and the End Time Antichrist.
Each, in one way or another, has the
mark of this special numeric.
Goliath, who fought David when he was
quite young, had a height of 6 cubits, had 6 pieces of armor, and his spear's head weighed 600 shekels of iron (1 Samuel 17:4-7).
Nebuchadnezzar, the great King of
Babylon, set up a "golden image" in the plain of Dura.
He commanded all who he ruled over to
worship it or else be thrown into a furnace of fire.
The idol was 60 cubits high and 6
cubits wide (Daniel 3:1).
The last special adversary is the Antichrist, whose name numbers to 666 (Revelation 13:18).
