Studie

       

21 At sinamyo ng Panginoon ang masarap na amoy; at nagsabi ang Panginoon sa sarili, Hindi ko na muling susumpain ang lupa, dahil sa tao, sapagka't ang haka ng puso ng tao ay masama mula sa kaniyang pagkabata; ni hindi ko na muling lilipulin pa ang lahat na nabubuhay na gaya ng aking ginawa.

It's a landmark for a young child to count to 100; it sort of covers all the "ordinary" numbers. One hundred is obviously significant for other groupings: 100 cents is a dollar; 100 yards is a touchdown; 100 years is a century, and the landmark for a very long life. It makes sense, then, that in the Bible, 100 represents fullness or a state of completion, or in some instances simply "much." For instance, people marvel that Abraham had Isaac when he was 100 years old; the number represents the point at which the Lord, when growing up as Jesus, united the human elements of himself with the divine elements and in a sense became "complete.
