The Bible Code in History: How Genesis 1:1 Shaped the Merovingian Kings

The official history of the Merovingian kings of the Franks was deliberately constructed to reflect the numerical code found in the first verse of the Bible, Genesis 1:1. The gematria value of this verse is 2701, which is the product of two key prime numbers: 37 and 73. These specific numbers reappear with statistically improbable frequency in the chronology of the Merovingian rulers, particularly in the reign lengths and succession intervals of kings named Chlothar, Chlodwig, and Childebert. This alignment suggests that their history is not a factual record but an artificial narrative designed to link the earthly dynasty to a divine, mathematical blueprint.

For centuries, scholars have searched for hidden codes and meanings within sacred texts. The Bible, in particular, has been a source of fascination, with its intricate narratives and symbolic numbers. But what if this biblical code extends beyond the holy scripture itself, reaching out to shape the very history of earthly kingdoms? What if the earliest verse of Genesis, Genesis 1:1, holds a mathematical blueprint that was imprinted upon the succession of the Merovingian kings, the legendary founders of the Frankish Empire?

In my groundbreaking research, I have found direct evidence that the numerical structure of Genesis 1:1 appears in the official historical record of the Merovingian dynasty. This discovery suggests that their history was not merely recorded, but constructed to reflect a divine, pre-ordained pattern.

The Numerical Heart of Genesis 1:1

To understand this audacious claim, we must first look at the numerical value of the opening verse of the Bible in its original Hebrew. In Hebrew gematria, each letter corresponds to a numerical value.

The first verse of Genesis (בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ – "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth") has a total gematria value of 2701.

This number, 2701, is not a random sum. It is the product of two specific prime numbers:

37 x 73.

These three numbers—27, 37, and 73—are considered the core numerical values that form the Bible's intricate numerical structure.

The number 27 (3 x 3 x 3) , 37 and 73 are considered the "seals" of the Bible itself. The entire biblical text is permeated by multiples and combinations of these numbers.

Merovingian Kings: A Reflection of Divine Order

Now, consider the official chronology of the Merovingian kings, who ruled the Franks from the 5th to the 8th century. Their history, traditionally seen as a complex and often violent struggle for power, reveals a hidden numerical order that mirrors Genesis 1:1. The Merovingian dynasty is claimed by both German and French historians as the first in their respective national histories. Its most famous king, Clovis I, laid the foundation for the Christian West with his baptism in 498.

The lives and reigns of the Merovingian kings, particularly those named Chlothar, Chlodwig (Clovis) and Childebert, are arranged in a grid that astonishingly aligns with the biblical code. These three royal names appear three times each in this pattern with the numbers 73 and 37.

  • Chlothar I reigned for 37 years (511-548 AD).

  • Chlothar II became king 73 years after Chlothar I (613 AD).

  • Chlothar III became king 73 years after Chlothar II (673 AD).


This repeated appearance of 37 and 73 – the exact prime factors of 2701 – within the reign lengths and succession intervals of these early Frankish kings is highly significant. It suggests a deliberate structuring of their chronology.

Furthermore, the reign of the kings named Chlodwig and Childebert (three times each) can be perfectly fitted into a symmetrical numerical framework derived directly from the Genesis code: 2 x 73 + 37 years.

A History Designed by God?

The implications of this discovery are profound. If the chronology of the Merovingian kings was meticulously crafted to align with the numerical code of Genesis 1:1, this "Bible Code in History" suggests that our historical understanding of these early European rulers may be less about uncovering what truly happened and more about deciphering the hidden mathematical and theological messages embedded within their official narratives. The Merovingian kings, far from being figures of random chance, may have been pawns in a grand, numerical game designed to reflect the very first words of the Holy Bible.
