 In A New Man, Ethan Rayne tells Giles about a new threat in Sunnydale - 314 (pronounced “three-fourteen”). He says to Giles: “Something’s happening in the dark worlds. It’s only been rumors out there but one thing’s coming through clear: that something’s harming demons and it’s not the Slayer… They’re scared. There’s something called “314″ that’s got them scared most of all. The kind of scared that turns to angry. I know we’re not particularly fond of each other, Rupert but we are a couple of old mystics. This new outfit, it’s blundering into new places it doesn’t belong. It’s throwing the worlds out of balance and that’s way beyond chaos, mate. We’re headed quite literally for one hell of a fight.” At the end of the episode, we see Maggie Walsh enter a door with the number 314 on it, and we discover her secret project, Adam, was created in that room. |

Doubtless this would have had many people scurrying for their bibles - not so Giles, who would of course have known that John 3:14 reads “as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the son of man be lifted up”. Uh-what now?
Exodus 3:14 is that bit where God goes into musical mode and tells Moses ” I Yam what I Yam” with a paper cup over his nose - however this also doesn’t help us much with clues to Adam.
