It makes an even better job than the Gregorian calendar when it comes to approximating the calendar to the solar year.

    I was responding to you saying humans seem to always divide by 7. It’s an interesting point you make that it’s been done for a long time but we are saying two things.

    You actually made me think of something I’m gonna go ask the Hebrew specialist, did 7 days in the Hebrew Bible mean 7. I know 7 is their number for a lot just like 10,000 in Chinese. :)

      My lemmy client only shows the comment without context, so unless I have a good memory, etc.
