The Emerald Home Run

If you look for parallels in baseball and the Bible, you will find them!The Emerald Home Run is a true story which combines the Bible and a book author Steven A. Janda wrote about the parables of Christ in 2008 entitled Ready or Not, Here I Come. "Suddenly," says Janda, "I began to notice many interesting parallels in Major League Baseball."On April 15, 2009, Ken Griffey Jr. hit his 613th career home run, The Emerald Home Run, after returning to the Seattle Mariners from a nine-year absence with the Cincinnati Reds and briefly with the Chicago White Sox. As soon as Griffey hit the home run, Hall of Fame Announcer Dave Neihaus said this was Griffey's 400th home run as a Mariner. "Instantly," says Janda, "I remembered Moses, who delivered the children of Israel after 400 years of bondage to the Egyptians." The author reveals numeric mysteries, including how Revelation appears in Genesis, how the tribes of Israel in the Law of Moses are joined numerically to Genesis and revealed in Major League Baseball by the Gregorian calendar. And children will love the secret formula for multiplying certain number patterns into millions without a calculator!The revelations in this book have never appeared in text books. The Emerald Home Run is truly an arithmetic lesson for the whole world to enjoy. Do not be left behind.
