224 COINCIDENCES IN THE BIBLE AND IN BIBLICAL HEBREW
We have earlier referred to the position of the Talmud that special letters in the
Bible were given to Moses from Sinai . Such special letters appear in relative abun-

’
dance next to the listing of the names of Haman s sons (Esther 9:7–9).
There are four such letters.

The letter vav, enlarged, appears in the name of Vajezatha (Vayzata in the
16
Hebrew text). The letter tav appears small in the name Parshandatha. The letter

other words, a Hebrew calendar year of 5707.

one finds this year to correspond to the year 1946.
On October 16, 1946, newspapers world over notified their readers that ten

Nazi criminals were hanged after being indicted in the famous Nuremberg trials .
Were only ten charged?

Not at all. In the Nuremberg trials, twenty-three Nazi war criminals were

charged. Whose verdict was it to go to the gallows? The New York Times headline,
in a late city edition from that day, tells it all:
“Goering Ends Life By Poison, 10 Others Hanged In Nuremberg Prison
For Nazi War Crimes; Doomed Men On Gallows Pray For Germany.”

Out of twenty-three charged, eleven had a verdict to be executed on the gallows.
However, two hours prior to execution time, Nazi criminal Goering succeeded in
