and sunset times). The discrepancy between the two results has never been
resolved.
2. Taking refraction into consideration, our own data-based calculation
would give a daylight duration of 12:16, which results in daylight duration
comprising 51.1% of the total day cycle.

Let us sum up the numerical values of the letters that comprise each of the four
words describing the four periods into which a twenty-four-hour cycle is divided:

“Day” in Hebrew, yom: 51

56 = (40 = ם) + (6 = ו) + (10 = י)

52a
“Night” in Hebrew, lailah 52b (lail is also occasionally used):

75 = (5 = ה) + (30 = ל) + (10 = י) + (30 = ל)

“Morning” in Hebrew, boker: 56

302 = (200 = ר) + (100 = ק) + (2 = ב)

“Evening” in Hebrew, erev: 55

272 = (2 = ב) + (200 = ר) + (70 = ע)

Let’s add them together:

“Morning” + “Day”: 302 + 56 = 358

“Evening” + “Night”: 272 + 75 = 347

The first amazing thing to observe about these figures is that they are so close

together (as one would expect if significance were attached to these numbers).
Calculating their relative weights in the sum-up of their numerical values (which

is assumed to represent the whole twenty-four-hour day), we find
“Morning” + “Day”: 358 / (358 + 347) = 358 / 705 = 50.78%
