Properties of the number 28

Symbolism

• The Dr. Allendy observes that the number 28 combines cyclic times: 4 and the evolutionary times: 7. "It is the spiral of the evolution unfolding among the perpetual cycles of the nature; it is the being progressed in the permanent oscillations of the Cosmos". From the mystical viewpoint, this number shows the Initiate, 8, bringing back the antagonism of the cosmic force, 20, to the unit - 2 + 8 = 10.

• Second perfect number because this number is equal to the sum of its aliquot parts.

Bible

• It is the number of chapters of the Gospel of Matthew and also of the Acts of the Apostles.

• Ecclesiastes, in the chapter 3 verses 2 to 8, enumerates 28 "times" in these 7 verses: There is a time for giving birth and a time for dying, for planting and for uprooting what has been planted, to kill and heal, to destroy and build, to cry and laughter, to mourn and dance, to throw stones away and to gather them, to embrace and to refrain from embracing, to search and lose, to keep and discard, to tear and sew, for keeping silent and to speak, to love and to hate, and finally a time for war and a time for peace.

number 28 is a dichotomy. It could be all good or all bad or a sudden turn. Elegua, Orisha of the Afro-Cuban Santeria, can give you this number as a warning of sudden change.

The Number 28

by Anonymous - 10/28/12 7:55 AM

Siince i was a child, i loved the sport of Basketball. when i took a picture as a child, i had a basketball in my hand, and i had a shirt with the jersey number 28. many years later, my Grandmother died at 10-8-10. A year later i realized that 10-8-10 equals 28. i was 14 when i realized that and since i play basketball now, i have my jersey number is 28 .i looked the number 28 up and it says that 14 and 28 has a relation to 42, it also said that if you have a J, A, or S as your first initial, you may retire at 42. my first inital starts with J so i thought 28 connects to me in those ways

by Andrew - 7/24/12 4:03 PM

528hz is the frequencie of love. There is something interesting with 28 going on. I was born 1/28/94. 2+8=10. Both my brothers were born on 10s one 3/10/91 and the other 4/10/87. The number 28, 10, 13, and 16 are everywhere in my familys birthdays even my parents. 28 is a really harmonious number. I know the ancients used it alot. It's just so interesting how it follows you everywhere right down to the time on a clock when I look at it.

I was born August 28 1973. Do anyone know what that may mean? I've always been called a celestial being or Angelic. I have a close and intimate relationship with God. However, I would like to know way every year that comes matches my home address, age, year of birth etc. Even lining up with my kids ages and birthdays as well.

I was born on the 28th of July. My husband was born on the 28th of October. I met him in my workplace. I was new then.. We chatted, he asked for my number. That same night I received a text message from him "Hello, this is Mr. 28." During our first date, our table number in the restaturant was number 28. We got married on the 28th of September. We went on a honeymoon trip to this island resort where they gave us room number 28. My baby was born year 2008. I see number 28 everyday, everywhere... So does my husband. Fortunately, something good always happen when we see it.

28 The Return

by Michael - 4/09/10 7:51 AM

The number 28 is the most important perfect number. In 1804 the British and Foreign Bible Society was organized. Students of the prophetic word felt at the time that these agencies were coming in fulfillment of the prophecy. This was a direct reference to the prophecy of Christ that He would return when His gospel was preached everywhere in the world. Before 1804 , the Bible had already been printed in and circulated in fifty languages. In 1816 the American Bible Society was formed. Both of these societies completed the task and were spreading the Gospel of Christ in every part of the world. This was considered by the students of scripture to be in exact fulfillment of the words of Christ given in Mark: and the gospel must be published among all nations. Christ warns that when this takes place: Take ye heed,watch and pray:for ye know not when the the time is. When this gospel is published in all nations, Christ again says: '.... then they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and... more...

Regarding this number

by Anonymous - 1/06/12 1:50 AM

What about individuals born on the 28th week of their mother's pregnancy? Yes it is an extremely premature birth with negative consequences to follow if they survive. But, is there anything positive derived from this, since it involves the number 28.

nothing

by deadmanwalking - 5/27/10 7:48 AM

The number 28 is relatively close to nothing, because numbers is relatively nothing. Its just A fragment of humans needs to systemize and categorize things that cant be categorized. U point at A set of stones and tell people there is two stones, but there is no such things as just two stones, they are different. Just like the time is different, u can look at ur watch and note that there is 28 mins gone by in time, but time is relatively, no watch is perfect and as long its mechanical or humans there will be errors, and errors will change the orders of things. Time is based on the sun, but the whole univers is changing, just as the sun, just as the time. thats why the number 28 is nothing, but A human set of signs.

Numbers do mean something and do come from somewhere. Numbers are in science and creation everywhere. From your comment you seem to disbelieve and be very flat/unemotional about the whole idea. Makes me think your name is how you are feeling. However you are on this page so maybe you do have some belief or just in need of some divine 28 energy. I wish you well.

28 is my lucky number because I was born on the 28/7,my husband 28/10,sister 28/10,niece 28/10, nephew 28/3, dad 28/12 and also some friends. The last few months whenever I look at the clock it is also 28 past something, this has been happening to me several times a day. I do believe there is something special about it and I do believe it means something. I just don't know what yet, but I see the number everywhere. You could say it guides me and I'm drawn to it. If it has the number 28 then it's right for me.

Okay... This is really creepy... ever since my grandmother has passed away...(which she was born March 28th) I have been seeing the number 28 almost everyday. It started taking over my life I believe..not sure in a good way or bad just yet. She passed away in 2002 though and I kid you not at least once a day I will see the time 3:28..and its not like im purposely waiting for the time to pass to his 3:28. Last year when I moved into my apartment my garage parking number was 28. The number right across from my apt was 228. I just dont understand if I should be concerned! any ideas? helpppp!!!!!!! I feel like the number is getting to me.....

I have to write in also because I don't understand it. 28 has been following me for all my life. I was born on the 28th of October at 8:20. I swear to you all everything I have experienced in life is more than just a coincidence with this number. And after my grandmother passed also, on the 28th of November at 82 years old I have seen it more than ever. Tell me how to the last day I was at my job - I got laid off - I worked 28 months and 28 days? How does that happen?
