Shakespeare was born on the 23rd, and died on the 23rd, He died on his 46th birthday in 1616, (add 23 and 23, 46). In the year he died (1616) the first edition of the King James Bible was Published. Now go to this Bible (other versions may differ due to modernisation but the original it is true). Go to Psalms and read the 46th Psalm. The 23rd word from the beginning is Shake and the 23rd from the end is Spear.

Weird eh??

I have the King James Version of the bible and it doesn't work... could have been changed over the years. Interestingly random if it is true but what kind of conspiracy is this. Was he concieved at an exact certain time or are we talking second coming of christ here???

Incredibly, because I'm weird, it does work when you only counts words of length either 2 or 3. It is in between the 23rd 2-3 long word both forwards and backwards.... if it is a coincidence, I like it..

Cos if we are my god he could have done something better with his powers, written Doctor Faustus for one thing.

i'm happy you related to the plenty-disputed article in Wikipedia. this is beneficial to check out the communicate on it. i'm happy your English instructor have been given you thinking; I choose mine had! I dislike the term "conspiracy" concerning the authorship question. If the authentic author became a nobleman his identification necessary to be hid and this became extra interior the character of a State secret than some form of atypical hide-up. In Elizabethan England there fairly have been conspiracies. Amputations and e book-burning awaited people who have been too severe. As Mark Rylance spoke of, a guy or woman could be born with genius yet no longer with e book learning. Over 2 hundred source texts have been pointed out for the Shakespeare works, a number of that have been never translated into English. the only replica in England of Beowulf, regarded as a source for Hamlet, became in Lord Burghley's companion and little ones curiously further there via Laurence Nowell, Edward de Vere's tutor. Arthur Golding's translation of Ovid's Metamorphoses (plenty used in Shake-speare) became committed to the Earl of Oxford. Arthur Golding became his uncle. and then there is Oxford's Geneva Bible..........

It's just all in your head. When people think too much about something, they start to believe it's true and see things. There are lots of 'facts and figures' out there. All it takes is for a person to link two of them and call it a coincidence.

Maybe that explains why he spelled his name (9?) different ways. Maybe he was trying to give us a clue. Reminds me of the Da Vinci Code, you may be on to something.

of course, according to many sources, he actually died on the same day as his birth, May 3, 1617 (the month, because of the switch between gregorian and julian calendars, and the year, i don't know)

Just a (very) far-fetched thought.

There's no conspiracy, it's not interesting, and you're not on to anything.

What Giuleah said is right.

Yes, but wait until you try it with Byron and the London A-Z Street Atlas ... then it gets REALLY weird!
