The Talmud on the Megillah, Lesson 10 Daf/Page 11b An Epic Megillah Miscalculation (Part II) The Talmud continues its analysis of monarchical miscalculations with the royally mistaken conclusions reached by ancient Persia’s epic emperor, and the fatal consequences it caused. In fairness, our sages are quick to point out that this was no simple equation, as even the Prophet Daniel was unsure; effectively minimizing the margin of his error. See how the Kings of Babylon and Persia mistakenly calculated our exilic schedule and learn about the resultant harsh consequences!
