Number Four
Three signifies Divine perfection, with special reference to the Trinity: The Father, one in sovereignty; the Son, the second person, in incarnation and salvation, the Holy Spirit, the third person, realizing in us and to us the Divine.
The number four is made up of three and one (3 + 1 = 4), and it denotes, therefore, and marks that which follows the revelation of God in the Trinity, namely, His creative works. He is known by the things that are seen.
The Fourth word in the Bible is God.
