“And On The Tenth Day…”
What makes weeks special? They have no astronomical basis!
What would the world be like if a “week” was 5 days, or 6, or ten? Ann Althouse provokes a mind-bender.

Waddaya mean? It’s based on the lunar cycle (fudged down for divisibility).
Dave’s right.
Quarter moon, half moon, full moon — very helpful to know phases for farming, fishing or sailing.
I stand corrected then. Curse you, Althouse!
