<p>[QUOTE=&quot;inscriptor, post: 1777220, member: 26211&quot;]There was a huge problem that I was unable to solve for about 3 years: I didn&#039;t understand why date 715 (5715) (1955 ad) in Israel was written as 400 + 300 + 9 + 6 instead of 400 + 300 + 10 + 5 (beneath is the Hebrew coin 100 prut(prutot), dated 715):</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://creounity.com/apps/time_machine/discourse/article071/israel_100_prutot_1955ad_5715year.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Yesterday I finally understood this. 10 and 5 is written as <span style="font-size: 13px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: #000000">«</span></font></span><font size="1"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: #000000">י&quot;ה</span></font></font><span style="font-size: 13px"><font face="Verdana"><span style="color: #000000">» </span></font></span>what sounds like <b>y</b>oud-<b>h</b>ey, what is supposed to be a half of God&#039;s own (personal) name, <i>Yahweh,</i> in Hebrew it goes like<span style="font-size: 13px"><font face="sans-serif"><span style="color: #000000">יהוה</span></font></span><span style="font-size: 13px"><font face="sans-serif"><span style="color: #000000">‎</span></font></span>.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The rule in religion teaches us not to say the name of the Lord in vain. So exactly this is the reason why Hebrew people prefer to write and say 15 as &quot;9 + 6&quot; instead of &quot;10 + 5&quot;.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So now, if you enter 1955 in the Reverse convertion mode of the <u><a href="http://creounity.com/apps/time_machine/index.php?go=israel.php&amp;lang=en" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://creounity.com/apps/time_machine/index.php?go=israel.php&amp;lang=en" rel="nofollow">Creounity Time Machine for Israel</a></u>, you&#039;ll see that the result ends on 9&amp;6, not 10&amp;5.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If any Hebrew user reads this, I&#039;m sorry to implement that only now, since I didn&#039;t know the solution all that time.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hope you&#039;ll find this interesting <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
