Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began, But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen.

Romans 16.25f

The Hebrew Alphabet was designed to reveal the heart of God the Father (Av). This is the first word of the Hebrew language, and an acronym of the name of the Alephbet. This is discussed in more detail in Gematria and Scripture. Thus, great beauty is seen in this pair of identities:

There are a few ways to group the factors of 1495. First, we have the three prime factors:

THE EVERLASTING GOD = 1495 = 5 (Life) x 13 (Love/Unity) x 23 (Aleph + Tav)

This is based on the ordinal value of Aleph (1) and Tav (22). Note that the these factors (5, 13, 23) are closely related to the pentagonal numbers (5, 12, 22) that define the structure of Scripture: (5, 13, 23) = (5, 12 + 1, 22 + 1).

Alernately, we could group 5 and 13 to form the Number 65, which is the value of Adoni (Lord or My Lord) and Eimi (I AM), so we can understand this identity as asserting:

THE EVERLASTING GOD = 1495 = 65 (I AM/Adoni) x 23 (Aleph + Tav)

Or in plain English, God is asserting I AM the Aleph and the Tav. Think about it - the relation is self-reflective! It is derived from the sum of the standard values of the Alphabet from Aleph to Tav, and it is a multiple of the sum of the ordinal values of Aleph and Tav! This also coheres perfectly with the Lord's declaration in Revelation 1.8 "I am Alpha and Omega" and its relation to The Creator via the Number 801.
