Context: תְּלָתִין (telathin) is an Aramaic numeral found in the Old Testament, specifically in the books of Ezra and Daniel, which contain sections written in Aramaic. This numeral is used to express the quantity of thirty, often in contexts related to time, age, or enumeration of items. For example, in the book of Daniel, it is used to describe the age of a person or the number of days in a period. The use of Aramaic in these texts reflects the historical and cultural context of the Jewish people during the Babylonian exile and the subsequent Persian period, when Aramaic was a common lingua franca of the region.
