In my religion (and most other religions) certain numbers have certain meanings. So Iâm probably far behind everyone else figuring this out, but I thought it was interesting and wanted to share it with you. 4- order 8- resurrection or regeneration 15- rest 16- love 23- trust in the universe 42- creation 108- wholeness of existence I also think that itâs interesting that 4 8 15 16 23 & 42 has to be entered into the computer in the hatch and then the time resets to 108 minutes.
Thatâs so cool! I didnât know this, thanks for the info. You didnât say which religion you are talking about but I think is Christianity?
