48. My prophet is a fool with his one, one, one; are not they the Ox, and none by the Book.


Bethsheba Comment:
There is a secret meaning to 111 in the book of Genesis. 111 refers to the woman of 2:23 that is later named Eve. She is called this one three times by Adam, which is the reason for her number. This verse could read; my prophet is a fool with his woman. But the woman appears in the verse for Qoph (100) not Aleph.
Furthermore: 111 + the Ox = 250 : Fool.

My prophet is a fool with his one, one, one; are not they the Ox, and none by the Book?

The Djeridensis Comment
(45-48.) A Riddle concerning "The Perfect."
Nuit is moved by the word "perfect" to announce a Riddle wherein the Mystery "Nothing is Perfect" is proved by means of the Secret Wisdom of Letters and and Numbers: which Riddle I will expound in other writings.

The Old Comment
See above for 111. "My prophet is a fool," "i.e." my prophet has the highest of all grades, since the Fool is HB:A.
I note later (An V., Sun. in Aquarius) that "v." 48 means that all disappears when 61 + 8, 80, 418 are reduced to 1. And this may indicate some practical mystic method of annihilation. I am sure (Sun in Libra, An VII.) that this is by no means the perfect solution of these marvellous verses.

The New Comment
I think that the surface meaning of this verse is to answer the unspoken criticism of the scribe, who did not see how to find a zero value for such an equation. It assured him that it was only necessary to find a Unity Value.
