I tried mailing you an answer, but the path I had was bad, and could not deliver the message. Please send me new mail so that I can correct the path. ----------------------------------------- Meyer : As I understand it, "mispar kattan" is computed by adding up all the digits in the number (or in the gematriyah), looping until the result is less than 10; i.e., repeat adding the digits into a sum, until sum < 10. Is this more clear than before ? If not, please write back and I'll try to clarify it to the best of my ability. Asher Meth ----------------------------------------
