There is nothing in the Bible that shows that the number 22 holds a special meaning in Bible prophecy.

Not that I can find. Many of the numbers in the Bible have deeper significance: 1 – Represents absolute singleness and unity (Ephesians 4:4–6; John 17:21, 22.) 2 – Represents the truth of God’s Word, for example, the law and prophets (John 1:45), two or three witnesses (2 Corinthians 13:1), and a sword with two edges (Hebrews 4:12). See Mark 6:7 and Revelation 11:3. It is also used 21 times in the books of Daniel and Revelation. 3 – Represents the Godhead / Trinity. The angels cry “Holy” three times to the triune God (Isaiah 6:3). See also Matthew 28:19 and 1 John 5:7, 8. 4 – Represents universal truth, as in the four directions (north, south, east, west) and the four winds (Matthew 24:31; Revelation 7:1; Revelation 20:8). In acts 10:11, a sheet with four corners symbolizes the gospel going to all the gentiles. 5 – Represents teaching. First, there are the five books of Moses. Second, Jesus taught about the five wise virgins and used five barley loaves used to feed the 5,000. 6 – Represents the worship of man, and is the number of man, signifying his rebellion, imperfection, works, and disobedience. It is used 273 times in the Bible, including its derivatives (e.g., sixth) and another 91 times as “threescore” or “60.” Man was created on the sixth day (Genesis 1:26, 31). See also Exodus 31:15 and Daniel 3:1. The number is especially significant in the book Revelation, as “666” identifies the beast. “Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six” (Revelation 13:18). 7 – Represents perfection, and is the sign of God, divine worship, completions, obedience, and rest. The “prince” of Bible numbers, it is used 562 times, including its derivatives (e.g., seventh, sevens). (See Genesis 2:1–4, Psalm 119:164, and Exodus 20:8–11 for just a few of the examples.) The number seven is also the most common in biblical prophecy, occurring 42 times in Daniel and Revelation alone. In Revelation there are seven churches, seven spirits, seven golden candlesticks, seven stars, seven lamps, seven seals, seven horns, seven eyes, seven angels, seven trumpets, seven thunders, seven thousand slain in a great earthquake, seven heads, seven crowns, seven last plagues, seven golden vials, seven mountains, and seven kings. 10 – represents law and restoration. Of course, this includes the Ten Commandments found in Exodus 20. See also Matthew 25:1 (ten virgins); Luke 17:17 (ten lepers); Luke 15:8 (healing, ten silver coins). 12 – Represents the church and God’s authority. Jesus had 12 disciples, and there were 12 tribes of Israel. In Revelation 12:1, the 24 elders and 144,000 are multiples of 12. The New Jerusalem city has12 foundations, 12 gates 12 thousand furlongs, a tree with 12 kinds of fruit 12 times a year eaten by 12 times 12,000 or the 144,000. (See Revelation 21.) 40 – Represents a generation and times of testing. It rained for 40 days during the flood. Moses spent 40 years in the desert, as did the children of Israel. Jesus fasted for 40 days. 50 – represents power and celebration. The Jubilee came after the 49th year (Leviticus 25:10), and Pentecost occurred 50 days after Christ’s resurrection (Acts 2). 70 – Represents human leadership and judgment. Moses appointed 70 elders (Exodus 24:1); The Sanhedrin was made up of 70 men. Jesus chose 70 disciples (Luke 10:1). Jesus told Peter to forgive 70 times 7. With love in Christ.

Yes the #22 has a significant meaning in the bible it represents manifestation of light. The word light is mentioned twenty two times in the book of Matthew, it is also the number of lights that was on the candlestick to give light in the tablernacle, the word light is found in the bible 264 times and if you divide this number by 12Which is the number of administration you are back to 22 again. I think this is just to significant to pass up.

7 is not unique to the bible .. in mesopotamian mythology the goddess Inanna/Ishtar, Queen of Heaven and Earth, seeks to understand death .. but in order to descend into the underworld, run by her sister Ereshkigal, she has to pass through seven gates, while removing her clothes, and powers .. there she is assessed by seven judges, and found guilty .. similarly as Matthew states that jesus is baptised at the age of 30, so is the egyptian god Horus, son of Osiris .. and have a guess what happens to the head of the baptiser of Horus? .. and egyptian mythology predates christianity by over 3 millenia .. and as there were 12 tribes of israel, 12 disciples, so Hercules had 12 labors to perform .. Marduk, god of Babylon had 12 followers, as did Horus .. Quetzalcoatl had 12 followers, there were 12 Olympian/Titan gods each .. and back to 30 - David, super king of the jews was 30, when he supposedly united the kingdoms of Israel and Judah, the same age the persian prophet Zoroaster climbed the mountain to talk to god 7 equates to the days of the week, named after the roman gods of the sun, the moon, and the 5 planets visible to the naked eye, all the ancients knew of, ie Saturn-day, Sun-day, Moon-day, Mars-day etc 12 equates to the signs of the zodiac, whereby having 12 followers etc the god has the whole of the cosmos covered 30 equates to the degrees per zodiacal sign, ie 12x30=360, the degrees in a circle, the whole of the cosmos .. but 30 was also the age when adult-hood began in those days .. a life span was 70, which is why Moses, Joseph, and also one of the Canaanite pagan gods brought 70 people with them .. and subtracting 30 from 70 gives 40, the reason for all the 40s in the bible, like the supposed stay in the desert, etc the bible is not what most people think it is .. anything but .. it is incarnated myth .. with the 4 gospels stuffed to the gills with blatant contradictions (in the 4 gospels there are 4 different versions of how many women visited the tomb on the 3rd day, from 1 to a minimum of 5.. in Matthew 27 names only connect Jesus to David; in Luke it's 42, and the 2 sons of David from which they descend aren't even the same .. in these 2 same gospels, in one, Jesus is born before 4BC (ie before Herod the Great dies), in the other at the time of a Roman census in Galilee.. this is known to have happened in 6AD, ie there is a 10 year gap! ... just 3 of the many blatant inconsistencies the bible contains .. as with, is Jesus just for Jews or everyone? .. depending which bits you read you'll find stated both yes and no) and in case you didn't know: Dec 25 ..is the end of the winter solstice, when the sun starts to climb the sky for 6 months, until the summer solstice, jun 25 (which is why John the Baptist's birthday is June 24, ie the end of the summer solstice) .. and was used by many Pagan cults for the birth of their Gods (like Dionysus), as was Easter for the Gods' death and resurrection .. this is well documented .. but after Emperor Theodosius' edict of 390AD all pagan religions were banned ... and Easter .. is the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox, ie again as an adaption of the spring equinox it is really about the sun .. and marks the transition from the dark half of the year to the light half of the year .. ie death of the weak sun, resurrecting as the strong sun btw .. Hercules and his 12 labors, Jonah and the whale, and Samson and Delilah are all solar myths .. and Mark 14:13 - ".. find a man carrying a jar of water" .. Mark's gospel is reckoned to cover just about 1 year .. 14:13 is towards the end .. thinking of the zodiac, can you now sense what Mark's request refers to, and what the gospel itself is about?
