ArchivesRe: Number 6
in reply to a message by Selwyn
There is a theory that the number 666 was significant to John not only because Hebrew *Qsr Nrwn* (Emperor Nero) adds to 666, but also because the beast (ie emperor) claimed divinity even though in reality his numbers came up short of divine 7.
Another theory that I just found online states that 6 was considered undivine because it was the day mortal man was created.
But you are right that 6 is used positively in several places in the bible.
