Hebrew Calendar

This calendar has been called the “Hebrew Calendar, but it long antedated the Hebrew peoples, having its origin in the days of Adamah, Seth, Enos and Noah and it has been used by Israelites when YAHWEH led the nation out of Egypt, it is the same calendar used from the days of the earliest patriarchs to exodus from Egypt, when men first determined the average length of the lunar month. YAHWEH’s calendar is agriculturally based, with the planting of seed and harvesting of crop commences about the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere. YAHWEH gave his people [Israelites] that His new year had begun when they would see the new moon with fresh young barley ears in their crops and He calls the first month of the year Abib [Aviv] and He requires omer [a sheaf] of ripened barley to be waved before Him during that first month. The harvest must be in first and then the pilgrim takes the harvest to Jerusalem to celebrate and worship with YAHWEH the Provider of the harvest.

The Roman calendar is not Biblical in origin. It descends directly from the Egyptians, who originated the 12 month year, 365-day system. A pagan Egyptian scientist, Sosigenes, suggested suggested this plan to the pagan Emperor Julius Caesar who directed that it go into effect throughout the Roman Empire in 45 B.C. As adopted it indicated its pagan origin by the names of the months, called after their goddess Janus [January], Maia [May], Juno [June], July [Julius] August [Augustine] etc. He shall speak pompous words against the EL ELYON [Most High], shall persecute the saints [believers] of EL ELYON [Most High] and shall intend to change times and law. Then the saints [believers] shall be given into his hand for a time and [two] times and half a time [three and one-half years]. Daniel 7:25.

Now YAHWEH spoke to Moshe and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, “this month shall be your beginning of months, it shall be the first month of the year to you .Exodus 12:1-2. Speak to the children of Israel and say to them, when you come into the land which I give to you and reap its harvest, then you shall bring omer [a sheaf] of the firstfruits of your harvest to the priest. And he shall wave the omar [sheaf] before YAHWEH, to be accepted on your behalf, on the day after the Shabbat the priest shall wave it. Leviticus 23:10-11. The first month of YAHWEH’s calendar began with the month of Abib [Aviv] in the spring. The word month is literally means ‘new moon’ and the new month begins with a new moon and at first quarter the month is one quarter gone, at full moon half a month has passed, the word season comes from the Hebrew word ‘Mo’edim’ which is translated feast literally means ‘appointed time’. According to YAHWEH, the lights in heaven were meant to be for signs, seasons, days and years. The sun, moon and stars are a cloak in the sky. The day starts with the absence of the sun and the monthly cycle equally starts with the absence of the moon. As the sun passes over the horizon and can no longer be seen, the new day begins, just as when the waning crescent disappears and the moon enters perfect alignment with the sun and earth at conjunction starts the new month. It is the absence of the sun that starts the day, as it is the absence of the moon that starts the month.                                                                                                                    He [YAHWEH] appointed the moon for seasons, the sun knows it’s going down. Psalms 104:19.                                                                                                                                            The Elohim said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from night and let them be for signs and seasons and for days and years, and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth and it was so. The Elohim made two great lights, the greater light [Sun] to rule the day and the lesser light [Moon] to rule the night. He made the stars also. Elohim set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth and to rule over the day and over the night and to divide the light from the darkness. Genesis 1:14-18.     

YAHWEH’s calendar is made up of the solar – lunar, the sun to rule the day, when it is sunset we start our new day, the moon to rule the month, when it finishes its full rotation and restarts itself at conjunction the new month begins and a combination of the sun and stars to rule the year.                                                                                                           

And take heed, lest you lift your eyes to heaven and when you see the sun, the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, you feel driven to worship them and serve them, which YAHWEH your Elohim has given to all the peoples under the whole heaven as a heritage. Deuteronomy 4:19.                                                                                                 If there is found among you, within any of your gates which YAHWEH your Elohim gives you, a man or a woman who has been wicked in the sight of YAHWEH your Elohim, in transgressing His covenant, who has gone and served other elohim [gods] and worshipped them, either the sun or moon or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded. Deuteronomy 17:2-3.                                                                                           

YAHWEH Holy days are to be kept in the following way. On two of them no work is to be done [Holy Convocations]: the weekly Shabbat and the Day of Atonement [Yom Kupper 10th Tishri, a fast day]. On the following six days no servile work is to be done [Holy Convocations]: the first day of Unleavened Bread [15th Nisan], the last day of Unleavened Bread [21st Nisan], Pentecost Day [Shavout], the Feast of Trumpets [Shofar 1st Tishri], the first day of the Feast of Tabernacle [Sukkot 15th Tishri] and the Last Great Day [22nd Tishri]. So let no one judge you in food or drink or regarding a festival or a new moon [Roch Chodesh] or Shabbats [Sabbaths] which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Messiah. Colossians 2:16-17.
