The year 5843 תתמ״ג
5843 in the Jewish calendar is written ה׳תתמ״ג — the ה is the 5,000 years, and the letters after it are the 843 since. Written on its own, as it is on nearly every page that carries a date, the year is תתמ״ג, and those letters add to 843.
The letters, and what each is worth
400 + 400 + 40 + 3 = 843, computed by the same engine that computes every value on this site, over the same consonantal letters.
Why the five thousand is missing
The full form is ה׳תתמ״ג: the first letter carries the 5,000. In ordinary use it is left off and the year is written תתמ״ג followed by לפ״ק — lifrat katan, “by the minor reckoning”, which is the writer saying out loud that the thousands have been dropped. It is a habit of writing and not a claim about the number: the year is 5,843, and 843 is what its letters spell.
What the letters spell
No word of the twenty-four books is written תתמג — nor is any word written with these letters in any other order. The year’s letters are a numeral here, not a word, and this page will not make one out of them.
843 in the Tanakh
6 words, 793 phrases and 1 whole verse carry the value 843 under the standard method — 799 matches in all.
The letters of a Jewish year are a numeral, and this page treats them as one. Every value here is the engine’s, computed on the consonantal letters at the moment the page is served, and every count is read from the Westminster Leningrad Codex. Nothing on this page is a prediction.
