And there are different timekeeping conventions depending on society. Like ancient Jews had a different timekeeping convention than ancient Romans. Yeah. And so that's why you see like in Genesis chapter one, it talks about there being evening and there being morning is because, well, Jews today, right? You start the Sabbath on sundown the day before, right?

So that's why it's because there's different cycles. And so we go on a 24-hour time system. But ancient Jews had a different convention of that. Ancient Romans had a different convention of that. Ancient, you know, Mesopotamian cultures had their own kind of conventions about these things. And calendars were all over the place.

You know, when you get to the Julian calendar and they're like, we got to standardize this thing because everybody's operating on a different, you know, the Julian calendar and the Gregorian calendar. Yeah. Ancient timekeeping is very inexact and very messy. And so you kind of got to take certain things with a grain of salt in terms of that. But yeah, ancient calendars, I don't even know.

I know that actually, talking about the Dead Sea Scrolls, the group in Qumran, they were a sectarian group of Jews. who believed that the Jews in Jerusalem had basically capitulated and were not holy enough. And part of their reasoning is that they believe they have a perfect calendar.

And so they use a different calendar that doesn't have to do things like incorporate an extra month every certain number of years because their thing is not perfect. And part of their reasoning as to why they're like the chosen is that they have a timekeeping system that they say is perfect.

This is why solstices are so key in like most of human history. It's because you got to figure out like what's a marker point.

Right. How did you guys nail that? Yeah, I mean, just because they're ancient doesn't mean they're stupid.
