Gematria (Hebrew: גימטריה, also known as gimatria or gematriya) is a form of Jewish mysticism that involves the practice of assigning numerical values to words or phrases based on the letters that comprise them. This practice is rooted in the belief that words with identical numerical values bear some relation to each other or share some form of interconnection. Gematria is a part of the broader tradition of Kabbalah (Hebrew: קבלה), a school of thought that delves into the mystical aspects of Jewish teachings. The term "Gematria" itself is derived from the Greek word geometria, meaning "geometry," reflecting the mathematical nature of the practice. In Arabic, the concept is sometimes referred to as isopsephy (إيزوبسيفي), a term that also denotes the numerical evaluation of words. Gematria has been used historically for various purposes, including biblical interpretation, divination, and the creation of acrostics. It is important to note that while gematria can provide intriguing insights, it is not considered a definitive method of biblical exegesis within mainstream Jewish scholarship.
This site lets you convert words, names, and phrases into numerical values using different gematria systems. You can use the main calculator gematria tool at the top of the page: type your text, choose a method, and press Convert.
The calculator gematria tool supports multiple alphabets and standard letter–number mappings. More systems will be added in the future.
The reverse gematria calculator uses the same alphabet as the standard system but assigns values in reverse order (for example, A = 26, B = 25, …, Z = 1 in a basic English reverse setup). This lets you compare standard and reverse values for the same text.
Enter the word Gematria Explenations and press enter or button Convert. This will provide all selected gematria values for Gematria Explenations.
The site is designed to be compatible with common online tools and calculators, including the shematria gematria calculator and other popular gematria tools.
