Work
 
I want to share with you the significance of the #22, and how God considered work to be significant enough to be included in this interesting story of the #22.
This was brought to my attention by Isaac from The Assembly of Called Out Believers, from a video called "The HIdden Beauty of Biblical Hebrew - Beginner Intro Class"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u480f0vEbaQ
Hebrew is the language God used to give the Torah to Moses and it's believed Hebrew is the actual language of God and the language He used to speak the universe into existence.
We are made up of the dust of the ground and the breath, or you could say the DNA of God.
In the video Isaac pointed out from the book of Jubilees that there are 22 letters in the Hebrew Alphabet, 22 works of creation, and 22 generations from Adam to Israel.
Isaac went on to show that mysteries in our genetics DNA.  Our DNA chromosome looks like the Aleph, the first letter in the Hebrew language.  In the DNA, there are 22 building blocks called Amino Acids.  In the cell there are 22 chromosomes if you don't count the sex chromosome.
There are 22 bones in our skull protecting our mind.
Psalm 33:6-8 says "By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,

And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
7 He gathers the waters of the sea together [a]as a heap;
He lays up the deep in storehouses.

8 Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him."

Isaac went on to point out there are 2 universal languages, music and math.
Mathematics is derived from the numerical values assigned to the 22 letters in the Hebrew Alphabet.  The first 10 letters are assigned #1-10, the next 9 letters #20-#100 (by 10's), then #200, #300, and #400

Music comes from singing God's praises, the Torah was originally sung.

In music, there are 3 notes that make a unique sound together to make a chord.  In Hebrew there are considered to be 3 mother letters: Aleph, Mem, and Shin, from which all other letters come from.

In music, there are 7 notes to form an octave and in Hebrew there are 7 what are called double letters because they each can form two different sounds.

In music, there are are 12 notes in an octave when you count the major and minor notes, on the piano that would be the white and black keys from one lettered note to the same lettered note an octave higher.  And these relationships continue as you look at the electromagnetic spectrum

You might wonder why I'm talking about this number 22.  Well, I'm learning Hebrew and found this fascinating, but I  chose to share it with you because in the analysis the concept of work is right in the middle of this, which I hope reminds you that work matters to God.

The JewishEncyclopedia https://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/8944-jubilees-book-of  lists these 22 works of creation from the book of Jubilees: "On the first day—heaven, earth, water, the spirits, the abyss, darkness, and light; on the second—the firmament; on the third—the land, the seas, vegetation, and paradise; on the fourth—sun, moon, and stars; on the fifth—the sea-monsters (Behemoth and Leviathan, "the first things of flesh created by His hands"), the fish, and the birds; on the sixth—the wild and the tame animals, the creeping things, and man"
