Further,inthiscolouredseptagonweseegroupsofvaluesofthe7 wordsofGenesis1:1,thus: B=999=913+86(words1and3"Inthebeginning...God...") D=703=407+296(words6and7"...andtheearth.")

7Afittingclimax
WehaveseenthatcertainsumsformedfromtheGenesis1:1numberset {913,203,86,401,395,407,296}maybeexpressedassymmetrical elementsofnumericalgeometrywithintheconfinesofachequerboard ofchequerboards.Butfurtherdevelopmentsalongtheselinesare possiblearisingfromthefactthatthesumofwordvalues2to7,viz 1788,dividesevenlywithoutinfringingwordboundaries.Thus,203(2) +395(5)+296(7)=86(3)+401(4)+407(6)=894.
[Note:thebracketedsuffixtoeachwordvalueindicatesitspositionwithintheverse.]

Since,894=999105,and105happenstobeatriangularnumber(the 14th),wemayrepresentthesenewfactsbyremovingatriangular segmentfromonecornerofeachoftherectanglesmarkedBinthelast diagram.Atypicaloutcomeisshownbelow:

Becausetwoofthewordvaluesarethemselvesmultiplesof37,viz 407(6)and296(7),furtherdivisionsarepossiblewithineacharea markedG:

Here,G1=296(7)=8.37G2=203(2)+395(5)G3=86(3)+401(4) G4=407(6)=11.37. Finally,because105(the14thtriangle)displaystherarephenomenon thatitsdouble,210,isalsoatriangle(the20th),anequivalentresult maybeachievedbyremovingthissegmentfromoneoftheareasB, thus:

Wenowhaveanasymmetricalviewofthefirstword(butstillworked outwithintheoriginalstructure).LetuscallthisareaH,andthe deficientarea,I.Clearly,I=999210=789whichrepresentsthesum 86(3)+407(6)+296(7).TheareaBthatremainsmustthenaccountfor 203(2)+401(4)+395(5)=999,asbefore.
