          and intuitively suggested by documented Jewish oral and written tradition. Some
          further analyses are expounded in this chapter. All analyses attempt to establish
          that there is a linear relationship between the numerical values of Hebrew words,
          representing entities with a common physical trait, and respective values of this
          trait (measured on a shared measuring scale). For example, later in this chapter
          (section 23.3) we analyze “velocity” (physical trait) of light, sound and silence (or
          standstill) in relation to respective Biblical Hebrew words. Linear relationships are
          found. Why is this important? The following parable explains it all.



          23.2  A Parable (all facts imaginary; conclusions valid)

          At the beginning of the twentieth century, an archeological excavating expedition
          arrived to the Holy Land to carry out some research in the vicinity of the city of
          Jericho. A while into the excavation, a papyrus was exposed that contained a series
          of twenty numbers. These are given in Table 23.2a (denoted “First set”).


              Table 23.2. Two sets of measurements reported by the excavation delegation (Section 23.2).
