Abstract:
We briefly explain what a Torah code is and give an example of one. We show how to calculate the probability of its occurrence in a suitably defined population of texts. We explain how it is possible to misadvertise the computed probabilities, making it seem that the probability of a Torah code is very small. We briefly discuss the controversy and suggest that new more carefully controlled experiments are needed to resolve the controversy. We detail the protocol for a new experiment by a website reference
