Isn't it a Chutspa to think that the Divine can be captured with formulae? Isn't it a Chutspa to think that the Arizal died, because his time was up, 464 years, 16*29 years, before 5796? Isn't it a Chutspa to think that Rashbi died, because his time was up, 1856 years, 64*29 years, before 5796?
Isn't it a Chutspa to think that no equalities like
16! + (64*29)^2 = (64*71471)^2
exist for higher numbers? Obviously there is no Chutspa. If this is indeed the case, it is because of the logical structure of our world.
Formulae are describing exactly the physical forces of this world, using the mathematics of group theory, among others. Formulae describe exactly the spiritual forces, using other mathematics, such as number theory.
We do not describe G-d. We describe spiritual forces. In the olden days there was idol worship, e.g. around the Sun. After the revolution in physics, this idol worship has become ridiculous. The same is true for spiritual forces. There are spiritual forces, and there is idol worship around them. We neutralize the idol worship by describing the forces exactly, in order to reveal the One that is One, behind the spiritual forces, and beyond description.
The Geula, Geulat Yisrael, is often thought to be the revelation that Judaism is the Truth. It is not, and the best proof is the prevalence among rabbis to think and to preach and to insist that the world is young! Moreover, the idol worship that must be neutralized is largely a Jewish issue!
Rather, תתן אמת ליעקב, the Truth will be revealed to Israel. The Geula is the revelation of The Truth to Israel, and from Israel to the nations.
