The Sparrow and Number Four

The word Sparrow is used in one of the songs on the Bad 25 album "Free". In the song Michael Jackson sing "Free, free like the wind blow. To fly away, just like a sparrow" The song is number 4 on the album.
On June 8 2012, four month after Whitney Houston "passed away" in febraury 2012 the movie "Sparkle" with Whitney was released. One of the songs from the movie is "His Eye Is On The Sparrow" and is sung by Whitney Houston. The song is originally written as a gospel hymn in 1905. The song was inspired by the Bible and Gospel of Matthew. "Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?" (Matthew 6:26) and "Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows" (Matthew 10:29-31). The writer of the song Civila Martin have said this: "Early in the spring of 1905, my husband and I were sojourning in Elmira, New York. We contracted a deep friendship for a couple by the name of Mr. and Mrs. Doolittle—true saints of God. Mrs. Doolittle had been bedridden for nigh twenty years". I find it funny that the name Dollitle is mentioned. Take a look at this link: http://looking4thetruth77.blogspot.com/2012/02/exposing-dr-murray.html



The Gospel of Matthew is one of four gospels in the new testament in the Bible. The gospel tells about the life, ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus.

So number 4: "Free"(....just like a sparrow) is song number 4, 4 months, 4 gospels. Dr Doolittle in the post on the blog is played by Eddie Murphy, Murphy is rumored to be Dr Murray who got 4 years in prison. Michael Jackson said we have 4 years to get this right....

  2. In biblical usage the number four, is often used to indicate complete representation: four rivers in Eden, representing all of creation. Four corners of the earth, four winds of heaven. Dan 7:2 The number is also frequent in apocalyptic literature, four kingdoms, four horns, four beasts, four living creatures, with four faces, and wings. In the concrete simplicity of semitic thought, the notion derives from, the four points of the compass. The most important symbolic number is seven, itself the sum of four(completeness)and the sacred number three(encompassing beginning, middle, and end). Love you.

  3. Talking about #4,
    Tetraphobia is the extreme and irrational fear of the number 4. This phobia is very common among East Asians, as the number is very similar to the Chinese word for “death.”
    For example, there is no guest's room with the number 4 in hotels.
    Kanji character 四 means 4. The pronunciation of 四 is (yon) or (shi).
    Kanji character 死 means Death. The pronunciation of 死 is (shi).
    四=(shi)=死
    Just for your information.
