number - Arba'a Ushloshim Ushlosh Meyot?


Who knows three hundred thirty four?


ארבעה ושלושים ושלוש מאות - מי יודע?‏


The traditional Passover song "Echad" implies a possible presupposition that there is a Jewish significance to be found for each natural number. Accordingly, there is an ongoing series on Mi Yodeya that is attempting to unearth significant Judaism facts about each number, in sequence.


What significant Judaism facts are there about the number 334? The more significant within Judaism and the more intrinsically dependent on the value 334, the stronger the answer. Please include sources for your information wherever possible, as with all other answers on this site.


Please refrain from lazy gemiatrias. Some consider them heretical.



Answer




There are 334 perakim in Tanach from the beginning of Bereishis until the Churban - that is, the Torah plus Neviim Rishonim.
