Gematria Calculator

Convert words to numbers and numbers to Hebrew letters

A two-way Gematria calculator that finds the numerical value of any Hebrew text or converts numbers into Hebrew letters. The value updates as you type, ignoring spaces, vowels, and punctuation. The standard method gives final letters the same value as regular ones, while the extended method assigns ך=500, ם=600, ן=700, ף=800, and ץ=900. In reverse, enter a number between 1 and 9999 to get the Hebrew letter equivalent with correct punctuation, formatting 5785 as ה׳תשפ״ה and 15 and 16 as ט״ו and ט״ז.

Frequently asked questions

Why is 15 written as ט״ו and not י״ה?

To avoid writing a combination that spells the name of God, it is customary to write ט״ו and ט״ז instead of י״ה and י״ו. The tool does this automatically, even within larger numbers like 115.

What is the difference between the calculation methods?

In the standard method, a final letter has the same value as its regular form. In the extended method, ך=500, ם=600, ן=700, ף=800, and ץ=900.

How do you write the Hebrew year in letters?

Enter the year number, such as 5786, and you will get ה׳תשפ״ו. The thousands are marked by a single quote mark after the first letter.

What is the Gematria value of the word Shalom?

It is 376. The breakdown is ש=300, ל=30, ו=6, and ם=40. In the extended method, the final ם equals 600, making the total value 936.

Do vowels affect the calculation?

No. Only the letters are counted, including final letters. Vowels, spaces, and punctuation do not change the value.
