This value is based on the letters of the alphabet, with each letter having a corresponding number. The calculator can be used to find the numerical value of a word or phrase, which can then be used to interpret its meaning. When the numerical value of the Hebrew letters of the tetragrammaton is added up, they come out to 26, the number of letters in our alphabet. The characters themselves, according to Leeds, look like they symbolize pi begotten by 7 and pi begotten by 7 – or the same way that he has used gematria to break up the English alphabet to create his cipher. In Leed’s cipher, the numerical value of the words Lord and God both add up to 13, which combined equals 26. A related system of gematria is Notarikon, in which letters taken from phrases form mystical acronyms, or words are developed into mystical phrases. A more complicated procedure is temurah, in which letters of words are transposed or replaced according to complex rules. Some modern occultists have applied gematria to the tarot cards, associating the 22 trump cards with the Hebrew letters, a practice suggested by Éliphas Lévi, author of The History of Magic (1913).

According to Kabbalah, if two words or phrases share the same number, they are considered to possess some significant connection.
