Brett Favre Returns

No matter what jersey he's wearing, whether he hears cheers or jeers, No. 4 is still No. 1 at Lambeau Field. Brett Favre returned to Green Bay as the opponent. He threw four touchdown passes in Minnesota's 38-26 victory.

At the age of forty returning to his home town after 18 years in the NFL with arguable the best running back in the league Adrian Peterson number 28 threw four touchdowns. These numbers beg for a cabalistic interpretation.

The number forty is based on ten times four since four is the basis of creation coming from God’s Four Letter Name YHVH combined with the Ten Sefirot the cabalistic atom upon which all creation is predicated. The number 28 when written in Hebrew makes the word Choach/Strength–a good number for a running back. The number forty also has deeper implications being that the flood was 40 days and nights, Moshe on the mountain was 40 days and nights and the people in the Wilderness were there for 40 years–pregnancy begins according to the Talmud-Book of Law 40 days after conception.

There is a spiritual story in this man being played out in front of the world week by week to the fascination of all fans. It is known in the Torah/Teaching that if one wants to know what to do learn the law, but if one wants the truth, watch the story.

Go Vikings.
