Our new member Code Breaker has declared that the number 2520 is the "number of time." It is interesting that it relates to the times in Revelation as follows:

2520 x 1/2 = 1260

2520 x 1/60 = 42

2520 x 1/360 = 7

2520 x 1/720 = 3.5

The number 2520 is also distinguished as being the smallest number divisible by all 9 digits. It also is half of the 7th factorial: 2520 = 7!/2.
