353, 354, 355

I read in Wikipedia:Hebrew calendar that the number of day vary. Also, 12 times the average lunar (synodic) month gives:12 × 29.53059 = 354.36708 which rounds to 354. Is the “original Hebrew calendar” (referred to in the article) that different from today's (which would be quite confusing to me, since the exact phases of the moon are observable to everyone)? --Xenwolf (talk) 06:45, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

I just fixed the external link (see page history). On that page, you'll see that it mentions a 353-year cycle (with 130 leap years), so it's not really about a 353-day cycle (although some years do happen to have 353 days in that system, it seems). Note that this is only a proposed calendar reform, as far as I know, to clarify the context. --Fredg999 (talk) 01:56, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
