As a Jew, I understand the symbols and could tell you of the meanings of the symbols from a Jew's perspective.

Numbers also denote meanings in the Hebrew. The number 1 means {Union}...4 means {Creation}...6 means {man as only flesh, [carnal man]}...7 means {perfection or completness} { creation in 7 days}...13 means {rebellion or sin}...33 is a {promise}...144 I will explain later as it is used in the book called Revelation. There are many more.

But John's writing of 666 to a Jew could cause them to be directed to Solomon, for the reference to 666 does not have another parallel in the Jews scriptures.

Jamal,
There is much more concerning your question about 666. Let us look at the verse in question in the book called Revelation chapter 13 verse 18
[...Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding {count the number} of the beast; for it is the number of (a) man; and his number is Six hundred, threescore and six...(666)].
Now there are two things here that are of significance. One is that there is that one is said to {count} the number of the beast.
In the Hebrew and Greek, each letter in the ancient alphabets were assigned numbers so that adding the values of each letter gave the word a numerical value. So when we examine a word to try to fit it into a value of 666, we do that according to an ancient list of values for each letter in the Hebrew and Greek. This verse in question was translated from the Greek.
Also, there is the part,[...for it is (a) number of a man...]. There is a question as to if that is the correct translation because the indefinite article (a), could be not there in the Greek and then the statement would read,[...for it is the number of man...] The number of man from the Hebrew is 6.
But Solomon had characteristics and a lore that Jews could know from their scriptures. He was one of the central figures in Judaism. He was a king, A Son of David.
So when Jews are directed to Solomon, there are many referrences for them to read about in their scriptures.
What there is to know concerns the character of Solomon, and his life. From that , we could have a better understanding of the significance of [...his number is 666...] . There is an identifacation of the word {in the bible} that sums its letter values to 666,and when it is revealed, then we could have a better understanding of what The Lake of Fire is, what death is and what the symbols in the book called Revelation mean .
Lou
