Sphere Packing and the Seven Days of Genesis
What one has to do with the other
My last few articles have been focused on examining the seven days of Biblical Genesis by means of several apparently unrelated systems. These systems are the I-Ching, astrology, and the close-packing of equal spheres.
Up to this point, my manner of presentation has been to go through each of the seven days and apply these systems, one after another. However, I realize that such a method isolates each day, fragmenting into discreet units somethings that are better appreciated when seen within their larger context.
This is why, for the remainder of this reexamination of the seven days of Genesis, the entire sequence of days will be explored in three separate articles, with each article focusing on one of the three systems used to encrypt information into the Biblical account.
This article is going to focus on sphere packing and its relevance to the Genesis sequence. Sphere packing, or to be more precise, the close-packing of equal spheres, is concerned with determining which arrangement of equal-sized spheres is the most efficient.
