Torah gematria (Hebrew: גימטריה תורנית, gematria toranit) refers to the practice of interpreting the Hebrew text of the Torah (the five books of Moses) through the numerical values of its letters. This practice is a form of Jewish mysticism, particularly associated with the Kabbalah, and is used to derive hidden meanings or insights from the text. The word "gematria" comes from the Greek word geōmetria, meaning "geometry," but in Hebrew it refers to the numerical value of letters. In Torah gematria, each letter of the Hebrew alphabet is assigned a numerical value, and these values are used to calculate the numerical equivalence of words or phrases. For example, the word "Torah" (תורה) has a gematria value of 611 (ת=400, ו=6, ר=200, ה=5). This practice is also known as gimatria in Spanish and gematria in Arabic, reflecting its influence across Jewish communities in different regions.
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 Torah Gematria and press enter or button Convert. This will provide all selected gematria values for Torah Gematria.
