Properties of the number 47

Symbolism

• According to R. Allendy, this number represents "the evolution, 7, continuing in the eternal mechanism of the world, 40, by a personal effort and a fight - 4+7 = 11; 1+1 = 2".

• Forty seven is considered as being the number of the Law.

General

• With the Cross, The Bishop wrote on the ground, during the dedication of a Church, 47 signs: 23 letters of the Latin alphabet from the North-West to the South-East, and 24 letters of the Greek alphabet from the North-East to the South-West.

• Forty seven names of Pharaoh are listed on the Tables of Saqqarah.

Gematria

• It is the numerical value of the verse of the Genesis where it is written: And God saw that it was good.

• One day the Lord tells to Vassula that the new Name that he carried was Y H Sh W H. By using the gematria in "n", the numerical value of this name is 47 = 10+5+21+6+5. This Name of glory was given to Jesus, the innocent Victim, after his death. The Just to justify us becomes himself curse, since it is written: "Anyone hanged is accursed" (Ga 3,13). And "accursed" in Hebrew gives also 47 = 1+20+6+20.

• The psalm 47 is the first song of the divine Reign. It talks about the union of the nations as only one people to which unite the descendants of Abraham so as to rent the Eternal under only one chief, the Christ. The last word of this psalm is "climbed", numbering 47 = 14+16+12+5, like the Name of Jesus glorified Y H Sh W H = 47.

Occurrence

• The name of Adam, the word leprosy and the verb to stone are used 47 times in the Bible.

• In the three synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) 47 times it is spoken about demons.

From the age of 30 it first started by waking me up at 1:47am every day, if I went to a supermarket food counter to take a ticket I could guarantee the number would be 47. All the houses I have lived in were either 4 or 7. When I was 74 my son was 47 my beautiful wife died. It has now stopped following me around. Did it tell the future for me?

My mind is blown! I cannot believe I found this page..so the number 747, 47 or even 7 like times 7:47, 3:47, 5:07, or watching a youtube video and pausing/dragging mouse over video and its on :47 etc ...(I still cannot believe I found this page) SO why ive been freaked out about the number: I remember when I was 14 and my older brother lost his best friend to a freak accident (motorcycle crash) and talking to him while listening to music. We were talking about death and he plays a song by the band Kent and the song was 747..and he told me about a friend of his who was listening to this song and he got a call that his dad was in the hospital and by the time he made it, it was too late. I cannot for the life of me figure out why THIS number stuck out to me, but it did. I am 30 years old and to this day I see the number 747 throughout the day, time, videos, addresses, phone numbers etc...

Pamela, I don't know what the number 47 means.. personally numerology has had some troubling effects on me, I had similar experiences to reoccurring numbers.. currently I regard it as a possible language that I do not know how to read, nor do I know if there is too much importance in it. That plane (flight 103) over Scotland.. that was the flight my uncle was on. His name was Robert Thomas Schlageter, I was born 10 years after his death with the name Thomas Robert Schlageter.

RE:7:47

I see 7:47 a lot. I only see 47 when it's 7:47, though.. I always see :33, no matter what comes before it, especially 3:33, 11:11 is consistent, as is 12:21.

I also see 61 and 66 all the time, but as that can't display on a clock, this one only appears elsewhere. I also see 9's, 6's, and 3's constantly, as well as 11, 19, 21, 22, 23, 42, 45, 15, and 13, and I see these numbers on the clock constantly, too. I was born on the 13th, too, and no, it wasn't a friday, it was a tuesday. Lol.

I was born on 10/13/1987 to be exact. 13 and 987 are on the Fibonacci scale, and including those two numbers and the numbers between them, there are 10 numbers. I like to say I'm the 1 that was added to that birthdate, lol, I was born 3 weeks late, which is 21 days, and 2+1=3. 3 is my favorite number. Everything in 3's! A gold ring I just inherited has 333 in an oval, printed on the inner band.. I thought that was just ironic as hell, and I got goosebumps when I saw it.

Just ran my astrology to make a further point, because I knew it'd be full of more of the numbers I was spouting off about, and my freakin' sun sign was at 19° 42' 15".. "I also see 9's, 6's, and 3's constantly, as well as 11, 19, 21, 22, 23, 42, 45, 15, and 13."

That 7:47 has been nagging me the most, recently.. I see it EVERY DAY, in the morning and afternoon, as if I'm being forced by some cosmic coincidence.. Pay attention to it. Of course it's 11:42 now, lmao.

47 the strange mystical number of the Universe ?

by Hal - 8/10/13 11:45 AM

I have also taken note of the number 47. My awareness of the number started in early 1980's when small cokes at fast food was 47 cents and the 747 plane was introduced. Like others it pops up everywhere for me. Like I turned 47 in 2000 or my wife thought she was 47 when she was 46 (math error) and she had to be 47 two years in a row.

Or the other week I visited IRS office to make my monthly payment. I have been doing it for a year and every time in the past the room is full and I have to wait an hour or more. Last week I went as usual and the room was empty. I noted the condition as very unusual pushed the button for my waiting room number. Number 407 popped out and I got instant service.

Indeed it is a strange number. I get impulses at 47 minutes past the hour, like look at my phone or pick up phone to call someone I am think about. only to be told that the called was thinking about me. Or I am sitting at a stoplight behind a car with 47 in the license plate number 9 times out of 10 it seems.

How... more...

4 and 7 are the two secrets codes in the Bible. Every time you see number 4, number 7 is there. I will be give 4 examples:
1.God rested the 7th day and gave the 4th commandment as rest/ sabbath

2. God told Noah: in 7 days the flood will start. 4 families were saved.

3. a 4th person was in the fire furnace which was heated 7 times (Dan 2)
4. JOSHUA formed a group of 4 to tour Jericho 7 times ( Joshua 6)

Hello, I am 19 years old. I have been seeing 47 for a very long time and I mean a very long time. Ever since I was young. The number stood out to me at a young age and I fell in love with it. I fell in love with it so much that I’m not even sure if I want a relationship. I became obsessed. Is it God? Am I chosen? Those were the questions that I’ve been asking myself this past decade. Recently I have been having dreams about this number. Weird right? I see it on tv shows where they literally say the number. I’ve been studying this number more than anything on this planet. I have the answer. It’s God or a higher up telling you to be prepared for these next years. But I am still waiting, how much longer do I have to wait? The apocalypse is getting closer. I soon will lose my mind to this number. Who’s ever out there just know This... 47 is the most unique thing that can ever happen to anyone. It is a lifetime experience. Godspeed family. Take care of yourself please

In 2019 when the Democrat presidential debates were going on, I began to notice the number 47 in news very often, most of the time concerning Joe Biden. Most recent was on TV, Apr.7, 2023 (4th month, 7th day), saying Trump leads Biden among women 47%-39%. Biden was 47th Vice President. His approval rating jumped to 47% after SOTU in 2022. News article re Biden & expelled TN lawmakers Apr. 8, 2023 posted on the Web at 04:47AM. Apr 4, 2023 approved disaster declaration in 47 CA counties. 2020 allegedly rented $4.7M Virginia mansion. Rudy Giuliani says he purchased a $47M DC mansion half-mile from Soros townhouse & quarter-mile from Chinese embassy. Sometimes it's numbers like purchased a mansion in 1974 when widowed, & $471M to reduce maternal mortality rates... Sought $47B in emergency dollars for Ukraine, COVID... There is much more. I see it regularly. He is greedy & corrup.

I have been aware of seeing the number 47 increasingly over the last 2 years or so. Prior to this, I kept seeing the number 36 (and still do). This year is very significant. I have my 47th birthday this year, and I am moving in with my parents due to selling my house. They live at number 47. I'm not sure what to make of it, but I sense that 47 is a good number and nothing to fear.

James, in December 2021, I went to make a purchase at a pet store near me. The clerk said to me, “That will be $36.36. My ears perked up for sure. After research, the Lord told me that 2022 would be the Year of the Antichrist. It did not mean he would appear but that I should study what the Bible says about him. I’ve obeyed, and it’s been amazing. BTW, add each number from 1-36 and guess what number you will end up with? 666! Hope you are blessed by this.

7:47 in the last days he will pour out his spirit

by Tj - 12/24/20 10:45 PM

I've followed many rabbit holes and believe most are traps, I did this because like you guys I was experiencing synchronicity's and spiritual phenomenon, + life experience of a broken spirit, I wanted answers and what I found out is Jesus is the real deal and he does answer prayers and his name carries spiritual weight. Through our sin and worldly living we give demons legal access into our life's and through idolatry which is spiritual adultery which is worshiping anything else other then the truth and the life Jesus Christ. I believe like the Bible says in the last days in the 11th hour he will pour out his spirit and old men will dream dreams and young people will see visions. I studied alot of new age stuff and that is the devil's playground and a trap so many get deceived into following and the moment I start making leaps and bounds in my search for the one true God, I got attacked and the only thing that can save you is the powerful name of Jesus Christ and rebuking the enemy and giving ourselves to... more...

47 God Wants A Relationship With You

by KingdomWard - 9/13/21 8:08 PM

God speaks to people in many different ways. God is trying to get your attention, now stop freaking out about this number and get alone with God and talk with Him... like He is right there with you. Ask Him to show you truth. Get in the Bible and read it cover to cover. Talk to God about everything you read. If you think 47 is amazing, just wait. God will start to communicate with you in dozens if not hundreds of ways. Its time to more and mean the creator of all things. He wants to speak with you. Spot seeking the internet. Stop seeking other people. Seek God. You will not be disappointed. I cant do this for you. Its up to you to stop EVERYTHING you are doing and get alone with Him. Find Truth. Find Love. Find LIFE !!!

Why 47

by Tianna - 8/16/21 5:45 PM

I just found this page. I have been experiencing this for a few years now… After experiences like taking Kana or mushrooms. I see this number more and more. Yesterday I was at a concert and I had an extreme ego death, and before it happened, I was in the crowd behind someone wearing a “47” numbered jersey. Seemed strange that out of all the hundreds of people there I would have found him at that exact moment in time. After that, I realized so much about myself, about how I felt nothing like those around me. I could feel egos, it was like I got a birds eye view of reality. I am starting to question more and more and I already thought I was pretty far down the rabbit hole. I’m questioning reality, time, and freedom more than ever. I guess at this point. I’m wondering, why is this happening? We all thought we are alone. But we aren’t. It has something to do with this number. Are we supposed to figure it out? Or do we just need to be guided by this? And hope someday we will see the truth?
