No! But remember, the divisions of the scriptures were installed by men well after The Bible was written, even so it seems a good job. Numbers are most relevant. It is generally taken that forty is representative of a trying or testing time, even a time of punishment, but others as well. Remember Israel had to wonder the wilderness for forty year as punishment, Jesus was carried away by the Spirt for forty days and forty nights immediately after his baptism and many, many more.
