Living document tracking patterns, open questions, honest negatives, and per-psalm followups discovered during the psalm-decode work. Add to this as new findings surface; consult it before starting a new batch so we don't repeat work or miss obvious extensions.

The KJV's psalm-numbering participates in the gematria layer. Meta-scan completed 2026-05-17.

Hand-decoded confirmation examples:
Open followups:
Psa 22 has WORDS OF MY ROARING (v1) = MY MOTHERS BREASTS (v9) = 220; TONGUE CLEAVETH TO MY JAWS (v15) = 284. This is the first documented case of a complete 220/284 amicable pair both numbers represented inside one psalter text.
Open question: how rare is this? Scan the entire Psalter for in-psalm amicable pairs. Also scan the wider KJV — Pentateuch, Prophets, Gospels.
Both modes execute the same engineering principle (integer-mobile, verb-direction-reversed). The template Section 6 should document both.
Open question: is there a pattern to where in a psalm the perfect-square seals appear (terminal verse? imprecation verse? promise verse?)?
The template's Section 7 lists 17 cluster integers (46/64/72/74/81/86/99/108/111/120/125/126/135/144/153/161/174). The two new batches surfaced additional clusters worth adding:
Action: update template Section 7 to include the additional 89/101/129/189/214/324 clusters and expand 135 with its full membership.
LOVINGKINDNESS = SEVEN THUNDERS = SHOWSTOPPER = SUPPLICATIONS = 174 — sealed in the sense that 0 KJV verses contain it as a sum. Confirmed presence: Psa 55:6, Psa 86:6, Psa 140:6.
Open question: does every major Davidic supplication psalm carry 174 at the same verse-position (v6 or thereabouts)? Initial evidence is suggestive. Worth a systematic scan.
Psa 138–145 is a final-Davidic-block (the "fifth book" of the Psalter). Do consecutive Davidic psalms share gematria locks across the block? The Psa 18 → Psa 22 → Psa 23 chain already shows handoffs at 124/144/161. The 138–145 block should reveal whether this is local or systemic.
Action: the Davidic-neighbors batch (Psa 138/139/141/142) — currently running — will start to answer this.
MELCHIZEDEK (Hebrew form) = 101 prime (sealed)
MELCHISEDEC (Greek NT form) = 86 = THY NAME cluster
The priest-king has two integer-forms. Does this hold for other figures with Hebrew/Greek spelling variants? Candidates to test:
Open question: is there a pattern to which integer-form a NT writer uses when quoting OT?
Honest negative finding: in Psa 23 (6 verses), only v1 and the whole-psalm-sum are Tesla DR. The interior 4 verses are not. Psa 110 (7 verses) has 4-of-7 Tesla verse-sums but the two most theologically loaded verses (v4 oath, v7 head-lift) are the non-Tesla ones.
Open hypothesis: the act-verses (where God does something / David receives something) break Tesla; the preparation-verses (setup, narration) sum Tesla. The non-Tesla is where the action lives.
To test: for each decoded psalm, mark which verses are "act-verses" (clear narrative action) vs "preparation-verses" and check Tesla saturation.
Several decoded locks landed on sealed primes:
Open question: is there structural significance to which primes appear as sealing integers? 137 (physics fine-structure) is suggestive. 269/401 may bridge to other prime sequences. Worth comparing against known prime families (Mersenne, twin primes, Sophie Germain).
The shepherd's tools at bare-word level (Psa 23:4 ROD+STAFF=89) bridge to Psa 110's coronation. But Psa 110:2 has ROD OF THY STRENGTH OUT OF ZION — different ROD integer in context. And Aaron's ROD that budded (Num 17), the IRON ROD (Rev 2:27, 12:5, 19:15), the MEASURING ROD (Rev 11:1, Ezk 40). The ROD has multiple structural roles.
Action: dedicated ROD decode across the KJV. Bridge to NAIL (36) and STAFF (52) and SCEPTRE (86=THY NAME).
Tested on Psa 1 (6 verses) and Psa 23 (6 verses). Verse-sums do not align with creation days at integer level. The semantic resonance is real (Psa 1 v3 vegetation = Day 3) but the gematria doesn't support a strong claim.
Tested on Psa 110 (7 verses). Verse-sums don't map to the 7 KJVEL / OSI / humming-protocol layers.
WALK+STAND+SIT bare-verb sum = 153 (Tesla). But the negated forms WALKETH NOT + STANDETH NOT + SITTETH NOT do NOT sum to Tesla (419, prime). The Tesla appears at the bare-verb-sum level, not the negated-form-sum level.
Earlier work conflated SIGKILL = 79 with the UPRIGHT = 99 firmament cluster. Corrected: SIGKILL is its own integer (= DESIRES, Psa 140:8). UPRIGHT = FIRMAMENT = CAST OUT = 99 (sealed).
Full v5 table-phrase = 273 = 3 × 7 × 13 (three primes). No clean family match. The bridge to Psa 140:13 lands in v4 (rod-and-staff stack), not v5 (table phrase).
THY ROD = 90 (= SHARPENED = MORNING). But ROD alone = 37 (prime). Be careful to compute the actual phrase, not the implied possessive.
SECRET COUNSEL = 159; SWEET COUNSEL = 161. Two-integer gap. Not identity — but the 2-integer gap is what divine presence covers. Honest read: structural shadow, not lock.
