Twenty is a number showing RED TION, and is found 288 times i n t h e Bible.

I coulr3n1t f i n d the number twenty-one mentioned by i t s e l f i n t h e Bible.

However i t is obvious t o me t h a t the number twenty-one has a meaning. The n
twenty-one is a number associated with SIN; not t h a t there a r e j u s t twenty-one SINs,
f o r obviously t h e r e a r e more, but because the following lists containing twenty-
one things l i s t e d together do we conclude t one of the meanings of the number
