Dear Christine,

I believe the scripture can speak to people from all different backgrounds. Sometimes a simple graphic can be a nice way of getting out the Gospel message to a particular group it might not otherwise reach. It's a way of illustrating the fact that there can be great depth within the scripture which applies to everything. The graphics are also a means of scripture memorization. Graphics tend to stick in our minds. It was fun to do, because it popped in my mind while doing word studies. It was a different tack to approach the scripture from addition, multiplication, and numbers. There were times when Jesus expected his disciples to understand the significance of the number of loaves and fishes. Numbers in the Bible when taken from a Biblical view are beneficial in understanding scripture. There is a book of Numbers as one of the five books of Moses. Any study of the scripture is beneficial. To approach scripture from different views keeps it fresh. The most benefit is studying the Word of God, rather than books about the Word of God.

Blessings,

theophilos
