The following "Torah Code" findings about the Rambam (Maimonides) were originally discovered by Rabbi Dov Ber Weismandel, author of "Min Hamaitzar", even before the days of computers. (Taken from a page in the new book, "Toldot HaRambam", pp. 1253-4. Charts are my own, or modified.)
The acronym "Rambam" (רמב''ם) occurs once in the entire Pentateuch (Ex. 11, 9). This very verse also contains the word Moshe, Rambam's name.
Seven verses later comes the commandment for the Jews to bring a sacrifice on the 14th of Nissan. This is the Rambam's birthday.
Counting forward every 50th letter from the Mem in the word Moshe, spells "Mishne". This is the first word in the Rambam's most famous book, "Mishne Torah", a book that enumerates all the laws of Torah and the basis of which is the 613 commandments.
The word "Torah" (the second name of his book's title) is also in the region, and also arrived at counting every 50th letter.
The point at which the Taf of this "word" begins occurs after a skip of exactly 613 letters from the Mem in Moshe.
All these features occur within the tight space of 15 verses.
