In biblical numerology, the number eight represents new beginnings. This is illustrated in the story of Noah, where God saved eight people—Noah, his wife, their three sons, and their wives—providing humanity with a fresh start after the flood (1 Pet. 2:4,5). Dr. Frederick K. Price underscores that the chance for a new beginning is always available. We are not restricted to starting anew only at the beginning of a new year; we can choose to make a fresh start at any moment in our lives.
