How to use gematria calculator

Gematria is an ancient system of assigning numerical value to Hebrew words and letters based primarily on their phonetic value. It was used extensively by mystics for centuries, and is still utilized in modern times for understanding the hidden meanings of words. For those interested in exploring Gematria further, a gematria calculator can be very useful. Here's how to use it:

First, obtain a digital version of a Gematria calculator, such as Rabbi Siegal's digital one or the traditional book form known as "Gemaras". Once you have your calculator ready, you can begin calculating Gematric values. Input any Hebrew word you are interested in investigating. The calculator will display both the numeric sum of each letter, as well as the total numeric sum of the entire word.

If you would like to break down a word further into its individual components and explore each letter's individual value, that is possible too. To do this, simply input each letter separately into the calculator and view its resulting number. This will give you further insight into the potential underlying meaning behind any given Hebrew word or phrase.

Finally, once you have calculated all desired numbers for words or letters, there are a few more possibilities for interpretation available with a Gematria calculator. A quick Google search should show some resources outlining details of connecting these calculated numbers with Jewish mysticism from which modern day interpretations typically derive from - exploring themes like religious numerology or associating certain values to various kabbalistic concepts respectively.
