Sherlock Season 03 Episode 01 What's the password for the text message that kidnapped Watson?

To understand this, we need to know some western cultural backgrounds.

The lines say it's a jump code.

Skip code is an allusion to the Bible, that is, after every numerical character in the Bible, the obtained words can be re-spelled to form a complete sentence (it is said that even major events such as Kennedy assassination and Japan's 95 earthquake were "accurately predicted"). This "number" separated by "number" is exhaustively obtained, that is, it is read once every 1 word. If the rest can't spell a complete sentence, read it every two words, and so on.

The content of the short message is separated by 1 words, and spelled as Save John Waston and Saint James the Less after two words. The translation is "save John Watson and go to St. James." There is a church in England called Little St James's Church.

Attached to a short message (with a strong biblical flavor)

Save the soul!

John or James Voss?

Saint or sinner?

James or John?

The more the less?
