              •  Adom  (red). This color has CNV  of
                      51 = (40 = ם = מ) + (6 = ו) + (4 = ד) + (1 = א)


                       20
              •  Tzhaov  (yellow):

                            97 = (2 = ב) + (5 = ה) + (90 = צ)

                        24
              •  Yerakon  (green):

               366 = (50 = ן) + (6 = ו) + (100 = ק) + (200 = ר) + (10 = י)

                       9
              •  Tchelet  (blue):

                   850 = (400 = ת) + (30 = ל) + (20 = כ) + (400 = ת)


            The basic set thus includes four observations. These observations are shown
          underlined  in  Table  12.3.  The  corresponding  representative  wave  frequencies

          (WFs) are also shown. These were chosen as the midvalues of the WF intervals,
          given in Table 12.1.
            Some explanation for the selection of these observations (and not others) is
          necessary, and will be given by the pursuing comments.

          Comments
          1.  The judgment about which color names have irrefutable meaning was based
             only on how these names are used in the Bible. Thus, in Exodus (and other
                                                 9
             books of the Torah) the color name tchelet  is used extensively to describe the
             color of garments that are known to be blue, as in, for example: “And thou
             shalt make the robe of the efod all blue” (Exod. 28:31).
                             8
          2.  The word chachol  is commonly used in modern Hebrew to mean “blue.”
                                                        8
             Yet it never appears in the Bible. The word chachol  may be inferred to imply
                                              31
             “blue” from the one-word verb chachalt  (“you painted blue”), which appears
             only once, in Ezekiel: “for whom thou did wash thyself, did paint thy eyes
                         31
             blue  [chachalt ],  and  did  deck  thyself  with  ornament”  (Ezek.  23:40).  By
                                  9
               contrast, the word tchelet  for “blue” appears in the Bible no fewer than forty-
             nine times. Therefore, the latter was selected to represent “blue.”
