The best calendar to date has been the one by Omar Kkayyám. (It wasn't adopted by the Persians or Arabs either.) Omar suggested 31 leap years for each 128 years. This is accurate enough that tidal forces will change the Earth's orbit before enough errors accumulate to need an intercalculary adjustment. Gregory's committee did know about Omar's work. They rejected the idea in because they considered the 4 and 100 year adjustments to be easier to handle.

Interesting indeed. I googled the name and came up with some sites. I'll certainly include this in the more in depth study of Enoch's statements. One of the more interesting points is that Enoch appears to make the attempt at aligning the solar and lunar calendars. From the few years I've spent trying to do that it can be absolutely maddening. Enoch mentions those cycles side by side and I'm really interested in the level of accuracy. Your addition is much appreciated. Thanks.
