His magnum opus, which, as he tells us, cost him the labour of three
whole days, was the paragrammata he constructed from Gen. xxxix. 2-33.
He took the German pretty well as it came verse by verse, and
absolutely made fourteen successive cabalistica out of it, each counting
up 11,500, which was the number of a short account of Joseph which
he took for his programma.
Riederer s preface is interesting for its simple-minded rambling
account of his hobby, and how he defended it.
He tells us that in 1714

the Jews with their own petard was an
ingenious, happy
and
proved effective in converting several Rabbis and learned
thought,
Jews when the ordinary Christian propagandist arguments would have
been of no avail.
The conversion of a Jew, especially a learned one,
was thought much more of in those days than at present, and this
was the case in England as well as abroad. There would be a public
baptism, a great concourse to hear the sermon, and there would be
very often a goodly sized pamphlet describing the antecedents and
conversion of the baptised Jew.
Several such have come down to us,
and are preserved in the British Museum and elsewhere.
My copy of Klchanon Paulus originally belonged to the Jesuits
of Vienna, and has been carefully annotated.
The Jesuits and the
learned world generally were
always ready to help and befriend a
learned Jew who had accepted Christ.
Indeed, Polanco, the literary
manager and editor of Ignatius Loyola s writings, was a Neo-Christian
Jew, and a great friend of the Basque saint.

This German Scriptural cabala trigonalis obtained considerable credit and
applause at Vienna when it was first circulated in 1714, and many copies were
afterwards printed.
There was a great desire among all the subjects of Charles VI.
that the Emperor should have male
progeny to maintain the succession to the throne ;
and when shortly afterwards the Empress Elizabeth bore a son to the Emperor, this
prophetical cabala was still more admired, as well as the one from Luc. i. 15 on
the Emperor, which is quoted farther on in its

of fulfilment, which was more than a
very good and famous anagram by a Jesuit
succeeded in obtaining. The anagram was Carolus Sextus Imperator = Uxor pariet
tres masculos," which was
certainly neat and deserved success, though it was unable
to command it.
The author of our Biblical cabala was J. F. Riederer, a merchantpoet of Nuremberg, who was a very prolific cabalist, as appears in the Bibliography.

These supputationes soon fell out of fashion, and

included J. B. Spadius,
Hieronymus Spadius, and Josephus Folianus,

For Ave Templum Sanctissimce Triadis is certainly such an ex

Nay, I could bring nearly five hundred examples in Italian as well and this
the only text in the whole Bible to which such remarks are
applicable.
The explanation of all this is simple enough when we hear it. These first six
words of the Angelical Salutation have always been special favourites with \he
anagram makers, ever since Joannes Baptista Agnensis, the blind dependent of
Cardinal Julius Rospigliosus, sent forth his first hundred in i66r, which were so much
admired.
Before he died, he made over a thousand, all pure and appropriate and
more marvellous still, a Pole, in 1702, sent forth a folio containing three thousand
anagrams, all in the elegiac metre, and with other men s attempts my shelves contain
nearly ten thousand specimens, all different
text.
;
is
;
!
Now, although
the composition of an anagram is worked out in a way very
different from the arithmetical process
necessary for a good example of cabalistic art,
still, when the anagram is completed, and the full
number of letters appropriately
used, if we count up the letters by any cabalistical progression we like to use, we get
the same numerical result as would be obtained by counting up by the same
cabalistical progression previously used the letters of the
anagramma was derived.
Thus in the way of numeration
all
programing from which the
these anagrams are the cabalistica of the
