About The Gematria
The Gematria is a gematria tool for the Hebrew Bible, built to be exact. Every word, every run of adjacent words and every verse of the 24 books is precomputed under seven methods — 2,581,248 spans across 23,213 verses — so a value is looked up rather than worked out, and every result list stands in canonical order, from Bereshit 1:1 forward.
Around that index sits a library to learn from: the Tanakh, the daily learning, the Mishnah, both Talmuds, the Rambam and a siddur.

What’s here
- Search — by number, by Hebrew, or by English word or phrase. Word, phrase and verse matches, each with a tally of every distinct text sharing that value.
- The Tanakh — all 24 books, fully pointed, with the JPS 1917 translation, and Rashi beneath the Chumash.
- Daily Torah Learning — the weekly portion and its aliyot, the haftarah, the monthly Tehillim, Daf Yomi, Mishnah Yomit and the Rambam’s daily chapters, on the day each one falls.
- The Mishnah — all 63 tractates, 4,187 mishnayot, Hebrew and English.
- The Talmud Bavli — the whole Shas to browse, with the Vilna page beside it; the English is being written tractate by tractate.
- The Talmud Yerushalmi — 39 tractates, Hebrew and English.
- The Rambam — the Mishneh Torah, and both countings of the 613 mitzvot.
- The Siddur — the weekday services in three nusachim: Ashkenaz, Sefard and Chabad (Nusach Ari).
- Resources — the Hebrew months, the days of the week, the festival cycle, the 613 mitzvot and biblical names.
- Audio — the daily learning read aloud.
The seven methods
Values are computed on the consonantal written text — vowels, cantillation and punctuation stripped, and the ketiv where ketiv and qere differ. Divine names are always calculated on their true letters; the reverent display setting changes only what is printed.
- Standard (מספר הכרחי) — א=1 … ת=400; final letters count as their base letter.
- Gadol (מספר גדול) — as standard, but ך=500 ם=600 ן=700 ף=800 ץ=900.
- Katan (מספר קטן) — standard values reduced to 1–9.
- Siduri (מספר סידורי) — ordinal position, א=1 … ת=22.
- Atbash (אתבש) — swap א↔ת, ב↔ש …, then take the standard value.
- Perati (מספר פרטי) — each letter’s standard value squared, summed.
- Milui (מילוי, also מספר שמי) — each letter is worth the standard value of its own name written out in full: א is not 1 but אלף, which is 111. A few letter names are written more than one way — the tradition keeps all of them — and the calculator lets you choose between them; searching uses the common spellings, which are the ones the whole Tanakh is indexed on.
Each method has its own page, with its full letter table and worked examples: the seven methods.

A note on method
Nothing outside the 24 books is indexed, valued, searched or counted — the Mishnah, the Talmuds, the Rambam, the Shulchan Aruch, the Midrash, the Zohar, the Ein Yaakov and the siddur are here to read. Where an English is ours rather than an edition’s, the page says so. Our editorial practices are documented and applied consistently throughout.
Questions
Which Hebrew text are the values computed on?
The Westminster Leningrad Codex, from the Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible — the 24 books of the Tanakh and nothing else. Values are computed on the consonantal written text: vowels, cantillation and punctuation are stripped, and where the written form (ketiv) and the read form (qere) differ, the written form is the one counted.
Which gematria methods does the site compute?
Seven: Standard, Gadol, Katan, Siduri, Atbash, Perati and Milui. Every word, run of adjacent words and verse of the Tanakh is precomputed under all seven, and each method has its own page with its rule, its letter table and worked examples.
In what order are results listed?
In canonical order, always: from Bereshit 1:1 forward through the 24 books in their traditional order, first appearance to last. Results are never ranked or re-sorted by value, and filters narrow a list without reordering it. The tally view counts each distinct word or phrase and may sort by frequency, but opening any of its rows lists the places in canonical order again.
Which English translation is shown?
The English beneath every verse of the Tanakh is the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, via Sefaria, which is in the public domain. The site uses Jewish translations of the Tanakh only. Where an English elsewhere in the library is our own rendering, the page says so.
What else is in the library?
Beside the Tanakh, with Rashi on the Chumash: the Mishnah, the Talmud Bavli and Yerushalmi, the Rambam's Mishneh Torah, the Shulchan Aruch, the Midrash Rabbah, the Zohar, the Ein Yaakov and a siddur, with the daily learning and its audio. These are here to read; only the 24 books of the Tanakh are indexed, valued and searched.
Where do the texts come from?
Every text comes from a public-domain or permissively licensed edition, and each is credited above with its licence. Those licences continue to govern the texts; the software, the index, the design and the English written here are our own work.
What does Premium Membership open?
Unlimited gematria search, the complete learning libraries and the siddur, the full audio recordings, unlimited bookmarks and notes, and the full record of what you have learned and davened — on every device you use. Everyone begins with a free account, and the membership page sets out the plans.
Is there an app?
Yes — The Gematria is on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android, and both are linked at the foot of every page. The website itself works in any modern browser, on any device.
