The number 300 in the Bible — Divine Appointed Period of Time

שְׁלֹשׁ מֵאוֹת

shlosh me'ot · Greek: τριακόσιοι — triakosioi

Three hundred marks God-appointed spans and God-shrunk armies — measures set by heaven, not calculated by men. Enoch walked with God three hundred years; the ark ran three hundred cubits; Gideon's army was pared to three hundred precisely so the victory would be read as divine; the flask poured on Yeshua was priced above three hundred denarii — extravagance appointed for His burial. Shin the flame is the letter of El Shaddai watching the appointed door.

Alef-bet letter: ש shin (value 300) — pictograph: teeth / flame — consuming; the letter of Shaddai · letter page →
