Systems in the body, 11?

So many Christians are aware of certain numbers in the Bible and in creation and their significance.

For example the number 3 for the trinity, or the number 40 for testing.

Noah was in the ark 40 days, and Jesus was in the wilderness 40 days, and the Hebrews wandered in the desert for 40 years.

Also you have numbers like 12 which represent governance, like the 12 apostle or the 12 tribes of Israel.


Now, if you look at the body biology will tell you that there are 11 systems in the body


You know muscular, skeletal, nervous, etc, etc, etc.

I was thinking, if God designed us, why didn't God give us 12 systems instead of the 11 that biology tells us that we have.

I was thinking, since 12 is so strongly linked to governance and these systems in our body govern the way we are.



Then it hit me, we do have 12 systems, the 12th would be the "spiritual system". In biology they just see the 11 natural systems

but if you add the spirit aspect to our being, that makes 12, and I was like, yeaa that makes sense now. :).



Just wanted to share that. Please don't misunderstand me. I'm not super big on numerology in the sense that I don't

follow astrology or feel that everything needs a number in the Bible to support it. But our God is obliviously a God of order

and I think that order is in creation and I just wanted to share how "I think" it relates to our body with there being actually 12 systems and not the 11.

And it makes sense to me since 12 is the number of governance.
