Tuesday is also the second day of the thirteenth 22-day cycle of the year, related to the letter Mem Sofit (the final Mem). The following verse from Chapter 3 of the Book of Lamentations is connected to the second letter, the Beit:
6. He has made me dwell in darkness like those who are forever dead.
ו. בְּמַחֲשַׁכִּים הוֹשִׁיבַנִי כְּמֵתֵי עוֹלָם:
This verse can be interpreted positively as follows:
6. In the darkness, he returned me. Like [if someone asked until] when? (Matai?) [and the answer was:] Forever (Olam).
