- What does the number three mean in the Bible? Why does this number reoccur so much in the Scriptures?
When studying biblical numerology, you need to be careful because the Bible does not usually give us the meaning of numbers. So when we are trying to figure out what the number three means in the Bible, we need to make sure we are using other parts of Scriptures to explain the less clear parts of Scripture, such as the meaning of the number three.
It is safe to say that the number three cannot appear so often in the Bible by chance. Therefore we can conclude that the number three in the Bible means that God is sovereign. He ordained this number to show that he is in control. It is the fingerprint of the Triune God.
Secondly, since God is in control, we can also say that the number three in the Bible means we can trust God.

For me God has always shown this to be a number of Breakthrough , Assurance, and Confirmation .
He’s made me realize all that surrounds me is three
3 also means completion.....God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit completes the God head.....Red, Blue and Green completes the Primary Color System....There are three main layers of earth, Sea, Land and Air...We as human beings are made up of 3 parts, Spirit soul and Body, A cell has three parts, A cell has 3 parts, membrane, nucleus and cytoplasm...Everything that God created was created after his Triune nature
Very smart observation!
🤓👌
Rayan, our Soul is created from the parts of all of the Persons of the Holy Trinity. That is why our Soul is immortal even if we are Not divine. We were created by God, where the entire Trinity has worked on every Soul. That is why abortion is such a horrible sin and many don’t even realize that they don’t only kill the potential Human being but also the Soul which is a part of God.
@Realtor Jose Delarosa you are not wrong at all brother 7 is complete number
And also 3 is a complete number also as it is the symbol of the Holy Trinity
Also Jesus Is Risen from the 3rd
Thank you.
Also at 3 am is very important in the spiritual world.
I learned that over time in my spiritual journey with God. Its a very good time for Intersession with praying
I'm always up at 3am. Doesn't matter what time I go to sleep. It's literally 2:57am.
What is it called ?
@@josephchapman9660 3am is also known as the witching hour. Some say that demonic activity is most active around 3am so if you are ever awake at that time it is important to pray vigilantly.
Who else is watching this 3 years later
Oh heaven I watch this 3 years ago

Good insight, Mark! Thanks for taking the time to share this.
My pleasure brother!
Thank you for your video. I think you are spot on and I appreciate that you are cautious to not explicitly assign definition. So many people carelessly define scriptural numbers using Numerology definitions, which is nothing more than witchcraft and extremely dangerous. Great Job!
Thanks for your video's Brother their Awesome.💯
God bless you abundantly brother
TY brother > God bless you and your family always.
God is so Awesome! This has been the clearest explanation I have had on the Number 3 as pertaining to The Holy Scriptures.
Rose Morales awesome to hear this! God bless :)
Shouldn’t we study Hebrew to get the TRUE meaning of the numbers?!
The Hebrew letters are numerical as well Gimel is numerical 3. Ghimel is a letter of constant transformation, change and motion, and translates literally as camel, an animal we associate with motion and travel between faraway places. Ghimel includes the opposites of both giving and receiving, and reward and punishment, creating balance and motion between these opposites. It represents reward and punishment It’s so much more
Thank you for the information
Thanks, this is very insightful. 😇
Beautiful and powerful teaching 🙏🏾

AMEN AMEN I Saw The Nr 3 in a Dream that i was taking a Bus Nr 3..Thankyou Stay Blessed
Never had thought of number 3 referring sovereignty of God. It's reassuring to know that Jesus is God and in control of everything. Even in our mistakes the Lord can reinstate and restore us in His presence. Thank you Jesus!
Thank you for sharing this. 💙
So who was Jesus talking to if he said why God have you forsaken me if he is God. Mathew 24:27
For me three is Father Son Holy Spirit. What gets me is I was born on January 3 rd. 1953. The middle child of 9 children. The only one. Who is walking with God. .. I can be trusted to keep secrets, I have deep empathy for Jesus before he endured the cross
I was born on 3/13/03 and I am the third child of 4 children. I am the only one walking with Jesus too. God has made me an empathetic, trustworthy, and patient towards others. God bless you Elaine🙏🧡, everything God does is with a purpose that we may grow more confident in Him reading scripture.
Thank you. I'm trying to rememeber what the number 3 is for both good and bad. Thank you.
God kept showing me the number 3 in my life and I was confused why. This helped a lot thank you.
I agree with you 💯 percent, when you say we have to be careful, because we're living in the end times and there's a lot of deception! So, if it isn't in God's word..be cautious!
I am very curious about this topic. I am looking into 3 being a prime number trying to find a relation to that and the bible.
Here's a rough example of what I mean. 3 items were placed in the ark. 3 into 1. Any thoughts on that from the mathematicians out there?
Can you do a video about waking between 3am-5am. And what to do when god wakes you up in the middle of night while everyone is sleeping
Is for you to pray over your life
It’s for you to pray since I am having the same experience and God wants relations with you in the quietest time he can possibly get you
Check out Perry Stone’s, “Three O’Clock In The Morning” series. He addresses the Jewish belief that God walks the earth between 3-5 in the morning. I watched his RUclips video on it. I don’t remember all of it but this series probably addresses your questions. Also, you could look up his video on it. It was interesting. You could watch and decide whether you agreed or not.
Whew I think I got my answer!!! God is letting us know he is real and he is here. If you’re under this video than maybe you had some kind of doubt…well he is telling you that he is here!
Thank You
You're welcome!
What does it mean for the number 3 to be in reverse and if it where one both hands of a person what does that represent and if said person had two 0s and one 4 on them on there hands each collectively what does that mean?
thank you. I believe the HS was showing me the number 3 but I don't know what it means
I hope this video helped a bit. You can never go wrong by simply seeking Jesus Christ and try to obey his word. We don't always know everything, but we always know seeking Jesus and obedience are right.
I saw Jesus today in my dream and I saw glitch of his face and glitch of number 3
Amen very accurate
Thankyou i just realized i have big connection with this number when it become a lot i come to RUclips to know what Bible says about numbe"""""""'''''''
""""""''" 3 """""" 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 waw God is real who blive that 7 times appeared this 3 in my dream in just 1 year 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Jeses raised on the 3rd day: also all my problems are gone and my blessings are around the the corner in Jesus name i accepte amen i will be back in so much breakthrough to tell you what will happen 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
GOD BLESS YOU
I looked at Genesis to see what God did on the third day of creation of what the 3rd thing he created was and the spiritual meaning behind it
Thank you thank you for that lesson is it that 3 is of current events and four is order in order to have 4 you have to have three current events and then you will be with five.
I know another example of 3 in the bible:
1 Kings 7:23 NIV
"He made the Sea of cast metal, circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim and five cubits high. It took a line of thirty cubits to measure around it."
Looks like they think pi, the number that is the ratio of a circles circumference to its diameter is 3 and not what we know now days as about 3.14159... looks like a big mistake, maybe the bible is wrong about several things...
Number 3: Just as three witnesses would firmly prove a matter to be true, a threefold repetition seems to establish it firmly or emphasize it. {Ezekiel 21:27; Acts 10:9-16; Revelation 4:8; 8:13}
Thank you. God is sovereign. 🙏🌹
sovereign is 3 syllable
There are 3 forms of life on earth, 3rd planet from the sun, marriage is a covenant between man, woman and God. This has been playing in my head and that’s why am under your video. I have really been connecting with God lately and I need to know….
I am the way truth and Life
I have 1yr old twins...while i was playing with them all of the sudden 1 of them bowed 3 times....she actually put her head on the floor bowing is thr a meaning to that?
I don't think so
Yes, of course there is a reason for it. It's not exactly common that a 1yr old child would abruptly stop what he/she is doing and begin prayerful bowing. Seems like you have special little souls and in your presence.
Betty Rdz my son did that on his 1st birthday and I just so happened to be video recording him at that moment, this was about 19 years ago. but anyways since I had been listening to music at the time that he made the motions with his head I assumed he was headbanging laugh out loud so all these years I thought he was headbanging to my music but in all actuality I just realized that what happened was he probably just learned that he could move his head in that way, just as your child did.
Amen
As much as I love your videos this didn’t answer what 3 means in the Bible.
I feel same... he didn't say anything about the significance of the number 3...
A lucky number for your next lotto ticket.
3 wise men , 3 years his ministry, 3 cross , Abraham walked 3day ....3 is all over the bible
I went to jail couple months ago. I got send to the hole for fighting. The cell that they put me in was very dirty. I did a lot of things for the guards to change me to another one. When they finally did the new cell had religous grafitti. N one day out of desperation i talked to god, i was angry n even cursed at him saying mf this is the 3rd time you have reached out to me in this same jail. "I had 2 spiritual experiences in that same lail in the past" . anyway when i said 3rd time i notice number 3 all over the cell 3 croses i have 3 kids. The most amazing part was that in the dirty cell out of a deck of playing cards i grabbed 3 cards n took them with me. That experience broke me down . n i did not know anything about the meaning of three... Plus i had met a girl bout a month prior to that i believe led me going to jail. We were intimate 3 times in two nights and stayed with me a third night which she just slept for hours. It messes me up all i do is think of her
It’s wasn’t a 🦅 crow ,it was a man (GABBAI ) of the temple ,his voice was so load he used to cry out 3 different things at 3 different times and shout in a load voice .....

Trying to figure any Biblical connection to the very special number, 137, that is ubiquitous found in quantum physics. 1/137, in fact. That was great. Thanks.
I was born at December 30 2004
its never specific its always a general message......
Makes me think of revelation... if there are seals, trumpets, and bowls, it sounds to me we have 3 chances to change our ways... 2 and the 3rd is the completion of what is to be the finished work of God.
We also do exist in the 3rd dimension so I think this is not coincidental

So, in case you're on a similar path "buckle up butter cup"
Advice: don't over think ( in thoughts or questions) you flow, focus on flowing. The pieces we put together after.
You are correct my brother, it would be impossible were it not for the living God who ordered the prolific occurrences of the number “3” and the numbers divisible evenly by 3 which are all throughout the individual books that make up the Bible.
People forget that all of Cain’s descendants all died in the flood, while Abel was killed by Cain before Able had any children. So according to the book of Genesis everyone who is living today and has lived since the flood of Noah’s time, descend directly from the “3rd” son of Adam, who was Seth.
1) Cain 2)Able 3)Seth
1) lost thief 2)JESUS 3) the saved thief
This is not an accident. If you count the number of generations from Seth to Noah it is “9”. Nine is divisible evenly by 3.
According to the book of Genesis Methuselah who died in the year the flood began was 969 years old when he died. His grandson Noah was 600 years old when the flood began. This is “3” generations, methuselah (grandfather of Noah) and Noah (grandson of Methuselah).
If you want to know how old Methuselah would have become in the year Noah was born simply subtract Noah’s age from his grandfather‘s age recorded the year that the flood began.
969-600= 369
3 6 9 (three digits in consecutive order spaced three units apart) This is not a coincidence.
Take the dimensions of the ark that Noah was commanded to build by God. The living God gave Noah the dimensions. They are:
This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide and thirty cubits high.
300 x 50 x 30 = 450,000
450,000 is divisible evenly by 3.
In fact my short comment on the subject mater doesn’t begin to scratch the surface.
Remember, the writer of the book of Genesis was not around when the book of Ruth was written, the book of Esther, or Jonah.
The same patterns of “3” or numbers divisible evenly by “3” are found in these books also, as an example of the other books of scripture which I cannot get into here.
If you are not a believer that Jesus is the Christ the only begotten Son of the living God, Who identified Himself to Moses using “3” names only: He said, “ I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” That same God made the Earth to be the “3rd” planet from the sun; a planet where water, first mentioned in the first chapter of the book of Genesis, exist simultaneously on our planet in three states: ice, water, and vapor.
If you do not know Jesus as your Lord then call on Him.
There is one who is coming and he will place “3” digits on right hand or forehead, without which you will not be able to buy or sell. And to accept those three digits is to lose any possibility of salvation.
666 a three digit number divisible evenly by three found in the last book of the Bible (Revelation chapter 13).
The word of God is true, so give yourself a chance and investigate, and call on the Lord Jesus who died and rose from the dead on the “3rd” day to save you.
And now these “three” remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13
I see it but I don't see it.. I can manipulate numbers also.. Where are the bad numbers? Anything over 10 is brought back to 10 or under but nothing negative.. So aren't all the numbers representing a devine being? That loses the balance in my opinion.. Representations of good and evil, knowledge and ignorance , black and white, etc etc.. Has to be a balance.. My view and opinion.

3 is YHWH's Mark of Divine completion.
Some fun with biblical psychology
God is an ideal, Jesus is the embodiment and pursuer of an ideal in the human condition, wisdom is found through the recognition of a duality between ideals of the group and the ideals of the individual. You could say that being is an acting participant between the known and the unknown, we're constantly trying to balance our choices to lead a life in grayscale. God is the ideal that is morally good which is a collection of wisdom passed down through thousands of years of low resolution pictures for the individual to perceive and understand despite the scales of time. This means God represents the sovereign principle of being as the mediator between duality, this meets my analysis of the number three as an associated number of the trinity. The bible is a story, a lot of people don't realize it with the many books by many authors, however all picked out and updated based on a narrative that I'll try my best to represent here.
*If you embody the acting ideal of good and confront the potential of the world then the actuality extracted out of potential, is good.*
You are the being that calls order out of chaos, you walk with the ideal that is morally good by establishing a relationship with it through the actions you take for every moment that passes. You generate the actuality of the spirit of good but that doesn't mean you are good or that good things will happen to you. Faith in the highest ideals in all struggles of the human condition requires a lot of presets such as truthful speech and bearing responsibility, I would say the strongest claim of faith is one in that of the idea shared above.
To add
That sovereign principle sounds a lot like the hyper communication along the corpus callosum between the hemispheres of our brain. Such specific communication might be a certain type of thinking that is required when actions can't be left to a black and white choice. Probably why artists are known to have a larger corpus callosum which helps them act out and mediate within a balance of many different spectrums and scales all at once.
Jesus fell 3 times before he was crucified and finish the job
You said that we can use scripture to interpret scripture however ive never found the word Trinity in the Bible nor have the Apostles used the Word Trinity and God never said that he was Triune about himself. And ive never saw three persons used to describe God in the Bible. I googled all that and ive read the Bible myself and its just not there. So who exactly are you describing when you say Trinity? Its not the God of the Bible. He always declares himself to be One. And Jesus said and he and the Father are One. Not two, not three not a Trinity. And if the Father is a Spirit and the Holy Spirit is a Spirit then how many spirits are there? The Bible says One Lord One Faith and One Spirit.
Trinity is a word Christians use to describe a truth that is in the Bible. There are many words not mentioned in the Bible that everyone uses to describe truths in Scripture. That what "doctrine" is all about. Calvinism, Arminianism, Baptist, Trinity, these are words that captures ideas people believe are in Scripture. I understand you don't believe the trinity is supported in Scripture, that's certainly your choice, I think it's clear it is there
John 5:18 "This was why the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God his own Father, making himself equal with God."
John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
Romans 9:5 "To them belong the patriarchs, and from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen."
I agree I'm not sure that I've seen the word Trinity explicitly used in the bible, but I think there's a lot of evidence of the "Trinity" in the bible. God is ONE God that eternally exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In Genesis 1:26 God says "Let US make man in OUR image and after OUR likeness." This is the first time we are introduced to the idea of the Trinity. You read this is and you wonder, What does God mean "Us and Our". Then in the book of Matthew, we see them all together again for the first time since Creation! Matthew 3:16-17 "And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water and behold the heavens were opened to him and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; and behold a voice from heaven said, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased." I still find it difficult to comprehend the idea of one being three, but I can apprehend it, because it is there in scripture! I don't know. I hope this helps in some way. God Bless
Remember when your not sure then don't make assumptions about dangerous. The number 3 is the number 3 the number 3 is in life the number 3 is 3 and says it is 3 it looks like a 3 yup it's a 3
no one asked

This is our Fourth time around...that is, this universe was created and destroyed 3 times already...all to save souls. Let's not lose anyone else and keep repeating history.
"Truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times." Matthew 26:34
The third time he said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, "Do you love me?" He said, "Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you." Jesus said, "Feed my sheep." John 21:17
So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words again. 45 Then he came to the disciples and said to them, “Sleep and take your rest later on. Matthew 26:44
A third time the LORD called, "Samuel!" And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, "Here I am; you called me." Then Eli realized that the LORD was calling the boy. 1 Samuel 3:8
The bible says 888 is the number of a new beginning
Anthony Johnson that's cool how 2015 = 8 🤣👐
I saw the number 8 on my ceiling while half awake it looked like an infinity sign on my life!
I was told I was a 3 person and had no idea what it meant and always saw and noticed it..even woke up at 3am all the time..was very weird. I am a spiritual person and believe in energy and the Trinity aka triune God
Always study the word of God most of all :)
I’ve always noticed bad things happen in three’s. Like it’s a test.
Holy Trinity of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Past, Present, Future (As it was in the beginning, is now, and forever shall be), and 3 is the Mind, Body, and Spirit. 333 when all 3 are in alignment with each other, it confirms a spiritual guidance.
I watched your video and can appreciate your beliefs and views however- I think you are over analysing the bible, the bible was written by MAN mere mortals telling passed down stories of Jesus - not once does it say it was Devine or endorsed by god or Jesus
Plus Jesus never once said that he was a god in fact when he was on the cross being crucified HE PRAYED TO GOD - why would you pray to yourself if you were god? Also the bible was not even around when Jesus was doing his thing and Jesus never even made reference to a book of scripture being produced and people having to follow it!
My friend I believe that the bible is a collection of stories of morality and to be used as a guide to life....... but not ment to be literally taken word for word and over analysed with men coming up with ideas and theories to try and fit certain stories.
Enjoy the bible but don’t use it as a be all and end all tool - basically just be a good person and do good things to keep god happy
Indiana Jones it's obvious the bible want around in Jesus's time. He said he would build his church and pay for it with his own blood. Which he did. Hence the bible. Jesus did reference scripture many times. Jewish scripture. He was a religious scholar that is why the pharasee's were scared of him. He had a better understanding of their holy word than they did.
You might have read the bible but it's clear you were not open to the message. Please ask Jesus to be your Lord and savior before it's too late.
@Indiana Jones, I can only hope you receive the Holy Spirit..please know Jesus is God.
Prove that statement
Indiana Jones you stated Jesus never once said he was God John 10:30 I and my father are one Jn. 10:33 Jews answered him saying for a good work we stone thee not but for blasphemy & b/c thou being a man makest thyself God.
You talked about when Jesus was on the cross
Mt.27:46 Jesus cried with a loud voice My God My God why has thou forsaken me ; is prophecy of the church during tribulation. Jer 17:5 The church today is trusting in Man the arm of the flesh many churches have guns. Mt.26:52 take up the sword will perish by the sword. James 1:22 be ye doers of the word and not hears only deceilving your own selves. /Gen9:4-6 eat not flesh w/life thereof which is the blood /Rev6:4 peace from earth /Rev 13:10 he that killeth w/the sword must die by the sword Mt.26:52 all they that take up sword shall perish by the sword . Churches have rejected the WORD of God & follow the teachings of men.
1Pe. 4:17 judgment begins at the house of God.
luke 11:17 every kingdom divided against itself shall be brought to desolation. Organized religion is divided today they can't agree what is the true sabbath. Cant agree if their is a rapture. Is.54:5-7 the Lord has called thee a woman forsaken Hosea 6:2 after two days he will revive us = this why Christ says my God twice = after two days revive us
you stated Jesus never made reference to a book of scripture being produced & people having to follow it.
mt.5:27-28 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit Adultery:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery w/her already in his heart. Ex.20:14 Thou shall not commit adultery.
Deut. 9:10 the LORD delivered unto me two tables of stone written with the finger of God; and on them was written according to all the words, which the LORD spake w/you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly . Jesus references to old testament Mt 5:38= Ex21:23-25 mt.5:27=Ex20:14 Mt.5:31-32= = Ex. 24:1 1cor.10:4 ROCK was Christ = Ex.17:6 Many blessing !
There is no such thing as the trinity, that is made up by the churches! show me a scripture were it says trinity! God and Jesus are not the same! they are different entities!
There are many words that are not found in the Bible, so that does not mean they are not true. Trinity is a term that defines a truth seen in Scripture. www.openbible.info/topics/the_trinity
Same goes for the Virgin Mary, who will be fighting Satan before the Second Coming of Christ. Many think it will be Jesus fighting but it’s not true. The Trinity is True. Jesus is the Way. He is God. Our Lady who was Chosen by The Trinity to be Mother of Jesus on Earth became therefore the co-redemptrix and is mentioned in the Apocalypse of st. John. (The Book of Revelation). She is the woman clothed with the Sun (=clothed in the Glory that God gave her to destroy Satan) and the moon under her feet. Remember how the Bible talks about the authority that we gain after trials, difficulties,extreme pani and perserverance? Personally I think that Mary could be the only one having the authority to destroy Satan after he took her Son to the cross, after she had to watch him die and suffered more than it is even mentioned in the Bible. No one else was faithful until the very end (even not the apostoles who loved Him) like The Virgin Mary. That is why the Remnant and 144000 are not only people who love and believe in Jesus (Yes ofc they have to be Christians) but.. they also accept and love His Mother. The Remnant is the Army of the Virgin Mary and that is the truth. Bless all of you.
