The word Gematria literally means "calculated using the numbers." In most ancient societies, letters and numbers are used interchangeably, and each letter of the alphabet had a numerical value. Technically speaking, gematria is a mode of interpretation in which numerical values \u200b\u200bare substituted for each letter in a word. In this way, the numerical value of the word could be determined and compared for possible relationships with other words that have the same numerical value.
