A fellow pointed out to me that the first verse of Matos & first verse of Masei have the exact same Gematria of 3324. Has anyone seen any Seforim that talk about the similar Gematria between these two verses?

Since we're on the topic, does anyone talk about whether all gematrios are meaningful, or are some/almost all of them just because everything has a number? Does a gematria need a mesorah or ratification by a mekubal?– MichoelRJul 10 at 16:30

1@MichoelR I believe this new book addresses your question amazon.com/Gematria-Refigured-Conveys-Through-Numbers/dp/…, although I have not read it myself– Joel KJul 10 at 18:03

1@MIchoelR That is why I gave you a link to ask your question.– Gershon GoldJul 10 at 21:15

1Interesting question and an interesting coincidence. In addition to these pesukim, in במדבר ל:ב and in במדבר לג:א, there are six additional pesukim in Tanach with this gematria: שמות ו:כט, במדבר כז:ד, דברים לד:ג, שופטים י:יד, ישעיהו נג:ב, ירמיהו מו:כא. Interesting that 5 of the total 8 are in Chumash. Also interesting that our two in Matos/Masei are at the start of a parsha pesucha/stuma (as expected for a parshas hashavua) and also the pasuk at שמות ו:כט (within Parshas VaEra).– EraserXJul 11 at 20:11
