246 COINCIDENCES IN THE BIBLE AND IN BIBLICAL HEBREW
For k = 1: X = 28.947261
For k = 2: X = 29.530594
For k = 3: X = 30.113927
Only k = 2 delivers a value for X in the required range. Therefore, the true
length of the synodic month is, according to Jewish tradition, equal to 29.530594
days. This value departs from the actual duration, as reported by NASA , by
29.530594 – 29.530589 = 0.000005 days
(The difference is five parts in a million.)
These are all coincidences … maybe.
