When the alphabet-position total of each of the first three words of Genesis 1:1 is multiplied by its position in the verse—1, 2, or 3—the resulting products total 245. This total is evenly divisible by 7.
Pattern 24 considers both the alphabet-position value of each word and its location within the verse. Moving a word to another position would change the calculation, even if the three words themselves remained the same.
The alphabet-position totals of the first three words are 76, 23, and 41. Each total is multiplied by the position of its word:
(1 in 1e1 for the previous four patterns combined[8]).
1 in 10^8 probability that all patterns so far occurred by chance.

Place values of the trinity of words highlighted.
The tables below show how the alphabet-position totals of 76, 23, and 41 are obtained. Pattern 24 then weights those totals according to the words’ positions in the verse.
