Thursday is also the tenth day of the fourteenth 22-day cycle of the year, related to the letter Nun Sofit (the final Nun). The following verse from Chapter 3 of the Book of Lamentations is connected to the tenth letter, the Yud:
10. The hands of compassionate women boiled their own children; they have become their food in the destruction of the daughter of my people.
י. יְדֵי נָשִׁים רַחֲמָנִיּוֹת בִּשְּׁלוּ יַלְדֵיהֶן הָיוּ לְבָרוֹת לָמוֹ בְּשֶׁבֶר בַּת עַמִּי:
This verse can be interpreted positively as follows:
10. The hands of women are compassionate, in that their children were His (Sheloh). They have become their food in the destruction [inflicted by] the daughter of my people.
