    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[MS 1053, Numbers 8:1 to 11:18]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[MS1053 comes from Persia. Written on a rich golden brown gevil, its age is calculated to be approximately 280 years. The fragment consists of four columns of text extracted from a larger Torah Scroll. The narrative contains part of the Book of Numbers, from Numbers 8:1 to 11:8. It details the process of lighting the Menorah, the induction of the Levites and the celebration of the first Passover in the desert. <br />
The scroll exhibits a very simple writ written by the use of a reed. Of particular interest are the shapes of the &quot;Open&quot; and &quot;Closed&quot; paragraphs (Petuchot &amp; Setumot) which differ from the modern standard. Salient characteristics include the dot over the letter HEH of the word “Rechokah” in the second column and the reversed NUNs on the top of the last column.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[&quot;In Number and Time, Marie-Louise von Franz explores Jung&#039;s hypothesis. Her discussions of the theory of number draw on a wealth of material from eastern philosophy, ethnology, archaeology, and mythology, as well as natural sciences and mathematics. The book includes explorations of the psychological aspects of mathematics, a discussion of number as a psychophysical energy pattern, and a description of mandalas (structures of the unconscious in mathematically symmetrical patterns similar to models in western physical science). In addition, Dr. von Franz develops Jung&#039;s concept of synchronicity, the causal relation between meaningful coincidental events, and relates it to the theory of divination. Number and Time is a piece of original scholarship which introduces a view of how &#039;mind&#039; connects with &#039;matter&#039; at the most fundamental level&quot; <br />

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Why is the number seven lucky--even holy--in almost every culture? Why do we speak of the four corners of the earth? Why do cats have nine lives (except in Iran, where they have seven)? From literature to folklore to private superstitions, numbers play a conspicuous role in our daily lives. But in this book, Annemarie Schimmel shows that numbers have been filled with mystery and meaning since the earliest times, and across every society. In The Mystery of Numbers Annemarie Schimmel conducts a tour of the mysteries attributed to numbers over the centuries. She begins with an introduction to the origins of number systems: pre-Roman Europeans, for example, may have had one based on twenty, not ten, while the Mayans had a system more sophisticated than our own. Schimmel also reveals how our fascination with numbers has led to a rich cross-fertilization of mathematical knowledge: &quot;Arabic&quot; numerals, for instance, were picked up by Europe from the Arabs, who had earlier adopted them from Indian sources. But the heart of the book is a guide to the symbolism of numbers. Number symbolism, she shows, has deep roots in Western culture, from the philosophy of the Pythagoreans and Platonists, to the religious mysticism of the Cabala and the Islamic Brethren of Purity, to Kepler&#039;s belief that the laws of planetary motion should be mathematically elegant, to the unlucky thirteen. After exploring the sources of number symbolism, Schimmel examines individual numbers ranging from one to ten thousand, discussing the meanings they have had for Judaic, Christian, and Islamic traditions, with examples from Indian, Chinese, and Native American cultures as well. Using examples ranging from the Bible to the Mayans to Shakespeare, she shows how numbers have been considered feminine and masculine, holy and evil, lucky and unlucky. ]]></dcterms:description>
