Both Deuteronomy and Luke chapter 10 mention the number seventy. Deuteronomy mentioned that seventy people went down into Egypt before the Exodus whereas Luke 10 mentioned Jesus sending seventy throughout Israel to preach the gospel:
The study of numbers: [Genesis 21:29-31 KJV] 29 And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What [mean] these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves? 30 And he said, For [these] seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well. 31 Wherefore he called that place Beersheba; because there they sware both of them. "Sheba" means both "7" and "to swear" showing that numbers have spiritual meanings as well.
