What is 777 in the Bible?


Christianity and the Number 777

According to the American publication, the Orthodox Study Bible, 777 represents the threefold perfection of the Trinity. The number 777, as triple 7, can be contrasted against triple 6, for the Number of the Beast as 666 (rather than variant 616).

Jesus’ Life and Language

Jesus (c. 4 BC – AD 30/33), also referred to as Jesus of Nazareth or Jesus Christ, was a first-century Jewish preacher and religious leader. He was born around 4 BC in the Herodian Kingdom of Judea in the Roman Empire and died in AD 30 or 33 in Jerusalem, Judea, Roman Empire by crucifixion. His parents were Mary and Joseph. Most religious scholars and historians agree that Jesus spoke a Galilean dialect of Aramaic.

King David and Psalm 22

King David is traditionally attributed as the author of Psalm 22, part of the series of "Davidic Psalms" (mizmor le-david). However, this attribution has been challenged by scholarly exegesis since the late 19th century.

The 7th Last Words of Jesus

The 7th last word of Jesus was, “Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” (Gospel of Luke 23:46). When Jesus had received the wine, he said, “It is finished;” (Gospel of John 19:30).

Jesus’ Last Name

Jesus does not have a last name. Last names were not common during his time. The title "Christ" means “anointed” or “Messiah," signifying Jesus as the "Christ" or "Messiah" following his baptism at the age of 30.
