No, it is still right there in the scripture, but scripture knowledge and understanding is required. For example I said this a few pages back and didn't receive any replies or see any discussion about it at all. And yet I have seen multiple times in just the last few days, in different threads where the same topic has come up, (including once here in this thread), people claiming that there is no set amount of days for a hodesh. There is, and the number is thirty, and I've already made the claim and tried to point others to the place in the Torah where it is expounded: but apparently people just cannot see it, (it does require a little study in the original language).
It will take scripture comprehension, which doesn't come easy, or by skimming texts and quote mining. In addition to Exodus 16 and Numbers 11 you will also need at least a surface understanding of Genesis 24:11 in light of John 4:6 because the answer, thirty yamim, can be either hours or days. A hodesh yamim, (Numbers 11:20a), is how long the murmerers and complainers fed on their lust for flesh before they died. Count the time: "all that day, all the night, and all the next day", (Numbers 11:32).
What does he mean with the first phrase, all that day? When did the quail fall? (Exodus 16), and what time of day does evening commence? (Genesis 24:11, John 4:6-7).
6+12+12 = 30
