If memory serves, the "number" is that of the AntiChrist. "Let him who hath understanding hear me--the number of the Beast is six hundred threescore and six." Numerologically speaking, it is sometimes claimed that the Greek alphabet characters contained numerical significance, and that the actual spelling itself, not the number 666, contains the 'real' number of the beast. At least one book claims that the 'beast' was the body of Christ, and the warning was that one should worship the word and not the body of Christ to avoid trouble. --arlan andrews/american bell/indy/lunch hour
