Meaning of the Number 818
King Jehu rules over the Kingdom of Israel (northern ten tribes) in 818 B.C. Judah's king in 818 was Joash who was mostly good. Jehu's rise to power and his reign, which ran from 841 to 814 B.C., was rather unique.
God first had a prophet anoint Jehu Israel's new king. Before he could assume the throne, however, the Lord tasked him with ending the then current Omride ruling dynasty (2Kings 9:1 - 10). This evil dynasty started with Omri (885 - 874 B.C.), after which his notorious son Ahab ruled followed by his two sons.
Jehu first killed Israel's current king with an arrow (2Kings 9:21 - 24). He then killed Judah's King Ahaziah (verses 27 - 29). He was also tasked with ending the life of Ahab's evil wife Jezebel, which he accomplished by having her tossed out of a high window (verses 30 - 37). He then proceeded to assassinate all 70 of Ahab's sons and his close relatives, as well as killing 42 relatives of Judah's king (2Kings 10). He lastly had the priests of the pagan god Baal killed.
God was so impressed with how Jehu carried out his will that he promised him that four generations of his descendants would also occupy his throne (2Kings 10:30). Jehu's ruling dynasty was the longest in the Kingdom of Israel's history, lasting 88 years, doubling the number of years Omri and his descendants ruled (44 years).

These patriarchs are Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch and Methuselah. Enoch, who was born in 3347 B.C. and possibly died "young," was 196 years old 818 years after Adam was created.
818 is equal to 2 x 409, both of which are prime numbers.
818 has subtle appearances in the King James Bible. The eighth chapter of 2Samuel has 18 verses. The other Old Testament chapters 2Chronicles 8, Nehemiah 8 and Ezekiel 8, also all have 18 verses (818).

Meaning of the Number 1144
Our Old Testament timeline places the creation of man in 3969 B.C. 1144 years after this event brings us to 2825 B.C.

Will He esteem your riches? No, not gold (betsar), nor all the forces of strength can keep you from distress (Job 36:5, 19, HBFV).
Entry number 1222 in Strong's definitions of Biblical Greek words is depou. This word, like the one mentioned above, occurs only once in the Bible. It means, in Hebrews 2, to assert or affirm something strongly.

1222 is equal to 2 x 13 x 47, all of which are prime numbers.
Meaning of the Number 1500
According to Wikipedia, 1500 A.D. was believed to be extra important to many European Christians as they thought it was the start of the end of the world. This belief was based on the phrase "half a time" found in the book of Revelation which was taken to refer to that year.
And when the dragon (symbolizing Satan the devil) saw that he was cast down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who had brought forth the man child. And two wings of a great eagle were given to the woman, so that she might fly to her place in the wilderness, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent (Revelation 12:13 -14, HBFV).
The period roughly between 500 and 1500 A.D. in Europe is traditionally considered the Middle Ages (Online article on The Middle Ages by Britannica).
The first year on the Hebrew (Biblical) calendar begins late 3761 B.C. (Julian). Year 1500 on this calendar system runs from the end of September in 2262 B.C. to the middle of September in 2261.
Biblestudy.org's Old Testament timeline places God's creation of man in 3969 B.C. 1500 years after this momentous event in God's plan is 2469 B.C.
In 2469 B.C. Methuselah, the world's oldest person, turned 813 years old. He will live another amazing 156 years until he finally dies, in 2313 B.C. (the year of the flood), at the ripe old age of 969 (Genesis 5:27)!
Surprisingly, other than Methuselah, the only two Biblical patriarchs also alive 1500 years after God created Adam are Lamech (Methuselah's son) and Noah (son of Lamech). This is a bit unique given the incredibly long lifespans before the flood. Lamech is 626 years old and Noah is 444 years old. Noah's son Shem, who will go on to survive the flood along with his two brothers, will not be born for another 58 years!
1500 is equal to 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5 x 5, all of which are prime numbers.
Meaning of the Number 4000
The number 4000 is equal to 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 (or 2 to the fifth power) x 5 x 5 x 5 (or 5 cubed).
In the middle of 29 A.D., less than one year before his death, Jesus feeds 4,000 people near the Sea of Galilee. He utilizes, for this 26th recorded miracle of his ministry, only seven loaves and a few small fishes (Matthew 15:32 - 38). After blessing such meager rations not only were all the people fed, seven baskets of excess food were collected!
The feeding of 4,000 was the last of three miracles where the Lord miraculously provided food or drink. The other two were the turning water into wine at a wedding (John 2:1 - 11) and feeding 5,000 men (Matthew 14:13 - 21, Mark 6:30 - 42, Luke 9:10 - 17, John 6:1 - 13).
