THE GALACTIC CUBIT
Previously, it was argued that our sun represents a standard star on the basis of which we can evaluate other stars. Similarly, it can be argued that our galaxy represents a standard galaxy on the basis of which we can evaluate other galaxies.
In both cases, these cosmological bodies represent standards of cosmological measure described in terms of the cubit.The cubit represents a standard of measure that involves 12 + 12 = 24 units. As we have seen, with respect to the human body, the cubit is represented by 12 + 12 = 24 digits. With respect to the solar body, it is represented by 12 + 12 = 24 layers that exist above and below the half measure, each of which is associated with its own unit of measure (corresponding to its characteristic scale). With respect to the galactic body, the cubit is represented by the first 12 + 12 = 24 layers that lie above the half measure. The first set of twelve layers represents the solar layers upholding the inner circle of the sun, and the second set of twelve layers represents the interplanetary and interstellar layers upholding the inner circle of the galaxy, which is marked by the dark-matter halo.
Therefore, the twenty-four galactic layers may be viewed as forming a standard cosmological measure called the galactic cubit. It is on the basis of this that all galaxies can be evaluated as either standard or nonstandard.
