וְעָשִׂיתָ לֻלְאֹת תְּכֵלֶת עַל שְׂפַת הַיְרִיעָה הָאֶחָת מִקָּצָה בַּחֹבָרֶת וְכֵן תַּעֲשֶׂה בִּשְׂפַת הַיְרִיעָה הַקִּיצוֹנָה בַּמַּחְבֶּרֶת הַשֵּׁנִית
«And thou shalt make loops of blue upon the edge of the one curtain that is outmost in the first set; and likewise shalt thou make in the edge of the curtain that is outmost in the second set.»
Shmot (Exodus) 26:4 · page 135 of 354
This is from the portion “Terumah” (Exodus 25–27). What it is about: The offering for the Sanctuary; the Ark, the table and the lampstand; the Tabernacle and its curtains; the altar.
Nobody picked it: the letters of today's date add up to 135, and that is page 135 of the 354 pages of the Torah — the first five books of the Bible.
A name from this week's portion gives exactly this number. Four days in a hundred.
The same number was already written down around 1450?: הקל = עב סג
In the database it appears 22 times across 11 books. We do not claim this proves anything: we show who wrote it and when, and we recounted it ourselves.
Today is the name's day of: Lyudmila. And your name?
Person of the day
Three names from three eras sharing one small number
The first man, whose name comes from adamah, earth. He was given the task of naming every living thing.
A rabbi and doctor of philosophy who taught in New York. He wrote of the person who at once masters the world and seeks meaning in it.
She hid two years in an Amsterdam annex and kept a diary. It has been translated into more than seventy languages.
What connects them
For all three the main thing became visible at the end: the sum turned out larger than any single act.
Nine is the last digit: after it the count begins again. A day for closing rather than opening. Good for finishing things and settling debts, financial and otherwise.
What would you want to finish before starting something new?
How the small number works: the digits are added until one remains. Non-Hebrew names are written in Hebrew letters by ordinary transliteration; variants exist, and the number depends on the spelling. We show the letters so it can be checked. This is a coincidence of counting, not a claim about fate. It is interesting exactly insofar as you can see how it was counted.

Reading of the reduced number
Nine is the last digit: after it the count begins again. A day for closing rather than opening. Good for finishing things and settling debts, financial and otherwise.
What follows is an interpretation, not a calculation. The reduced number comes from adding the digits; everything else on this page can be checked, and this cannot.
