IMO there is no way Ben becomes the new Jacob. Part of the redemption was him giving up the opportunity to run the Island (as MIB) and getting nothing in return (and actually probably death). He can be forgiven, but with all that he has done he doesn't get to replace the man he killed. It's Jack, Jack, and Jack to replace Jacob. It has been set up from the opening scene of episode 1.

Anyone else notice the following:
Ilana stated there are 6 candidates still alive, presumably 4,8,15,16, 23,42.
Well that would be Locke, Hurley, Sawyer, Sayid, Jack, and Kwon.
Anyone see the oddity here? Locke is dead, yet he is still being considered a candidate by Ilana.

Also, it is amazing the unbelievable amount of biblical references surrounding Ben and how many characters he is a metaphor for. He has been compared to Job and Judas. His speech about giving up his only daughter for Jacob was a straight metaphor for Abraham. And I think he now becomes Paul - the man who persecuted Christians only to become the biggest apostle.

There are 3 candidates still alive/active that aren't Locke, Hurley, Kwon, Jack, Sawyer, or Sayid according to the cave/dial.

Haasra , Grimwault, and Kysea. Whoever they are.

There are only 5 left that are not crossed out: Jack, Hurley, Sawyer, Sayid, and Kwon.
BUT Locke was crossed out last by the MIB, not Jacob. Also, Locke is part of the number sequence.
Ilana, knowing this apparently, given her conversation with Sun, still says there are six, meaning there is someone new, or Locke is still a candidate.

Where are you getting that from? The sixth could be Kate seeing she is still open on the light house list.

Very interesting especially considering it was 108 Wallace that was part of the directions given to Hurley by Jacob to be used in the Lighthouse. However, what are you inferring regarding a hypothetical relationship between Magnus Hanso and Richard Wallace?

So why would here name be crossed out? And why would such an important character not be one of the "big 6" numbers.
