The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 107

The possible meaning of the number 107 is derived from the occurrence of certain words and from the Psalms.

Kebes, Strong's #H3532, is written 107 times in the Hebrew version of the Old Testament. It is recorded the most in the book of Numbers (68 times) followed by Leviticus (13). It is translated as "sheep" or "lamb(s)" in the King James scriptures. Its first use is in Exodus where Moses and Aaron are instructing the Israelites regarding selecting a lamb for observing Passover.

Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year. You shall take it from the sheep (kebes) or from the goats (Exodus 12:5, HBFV).

King David is believed to have written at least 100 of the 150 Psalms (1 to 71, 107 to 119 and 135 to 150) delineated in the Bible.

The book of Psalms is divided into five major sections in the original Hebrew manuscripts of the Old Testament. Psalm 107 is the first song in the book's final section that runs to song 150. The other sections are Psalms 1 to 41, 42 to 72, 73 to 89 and 90 to 106.

The Hebrew yathar, Strong's #H3498, is recorded 107 times in the Hebrew Old Testament. It is used the most in Leviticus (14) followed by Exodus and Joshua (10 each). The word means to be left over, remain, remain over or a remnant.

And he (Laban), set three days’ journey between himself and Jacob. And Jacob fed and cared for the rest (yathar) of Laban’s flocks (Genesis 30:36, HBFV).

The Psalms and Number 107

Psalm 107 is one of a special group of songs sung during the celebration of God's annual Holy (Feast) Days.

Psalm 107 is the only section or chapter in the King James Bible that contains the same phrase four times. The phrase that is repeated in the KJV is, "Oh that men would praise the Lord" (Verses 8, 15, 21 and 31).

Psalm 107 is a song of thanksgiving and praise to God. It is meant for those redeemed of the Lord and saved from the hand of their enemies (verse 2).

O give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His steadfast love endures forever . . . Let them praise the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of man, for He satisfies the thirsty soul and fills the hungry soul with good things.

He turns the wilderness into pools of water and dry ground into watersprings. And He makes the hungry dwell there, so that they may prepare a city of habitation . . . He pours contempt upon nobles and causes them to wander in the wilderness, where there is no path. But He raises up the poor from affliction and sets their families like a flock (Psalm 107:2, 8 - 9, 35 - 36, 40 - 41).
