2. The number of letters in the verse is 245. If we add to it the number of "talafat" (likely a typo for "talfat" or "talaf") in the same verse, which is 9, where each "talaf" is valued at 0.1, as explained, the result will be 245.9. Dividing this result by the number of letters in verse 23, which is 9 letters, the new result will be 27.322. This number is the same as the period it takes for each sidereal lunar orbit, as explained in astronomy.

3. The number of letters in verse 13 is 245. If we add to it the number of letters in the preceding verse, which is 12 letters, and the number of letters in the following verse, which is 9 letters, the result will be 266. Dividing this result by the number of letters in verse 23, which is 9 letters, the new result will be 29.5. This number is the same as the period it takes for each synodic lunar month, as explained in astronomy.

3. The number of letters in verse 13 from its beginning to the end of the Almighty's saying: "[...] and none knows your Lord's armies but He" is 228 letters. This number is the same as the period in solar years that each major lunar cycle takes, as explained in astronomy. This is why Allah Almighty said after this number of letters: "This is but a reminder to mortals. For this is a major cycle that occurs." Within it, all other lunar cycles are repeated. As long as the moon exists, it will continue to repeat. In this repetition and what it contains of signs, there is a reminder for everyone who wishes to be reminded.

4. The number of letters in verse 30 is 12 letters. This number, on one hand, is the same as the number of months in a year. On the other hand, it is the same as the number of lunar eclipses in each major lunar cycle, i.e., 228 = 19 x 12, as explained in astronomy.
