Overview
This year I realized there were errors in my solar
calendar. This page addresses these
errors. To read the full explanation of how the solar calendar works, see this page.
Division of the Year
Our solar year is 365.25 days since
that is the number of days it takes the earth to travel around the sun. Our Father in Heaven created the sun and the stars on the
fourth day of creation; therefore our solar calendar and time did not start
until the 4th day of creation.
“And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day
and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. And God set them
in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, to rule over the day
and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw
that it was good. And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.” ESV Genesis 1:14-19
This verse from, the book of
Jubilees, reflects that they started celebrating the Feast of Weeks from the
days of creation and it maybe referring to the sun’s creation:
“And during the time this festival was being
celebrated in heaven, from the days of creation to the days of Noah, it was
twenty-six jubilees and five weeks of years.” Jubilees 6:16
This knowledge corrects issues I
was having with my calendar and the placement of the feast days. This new calendar corrects three issues as
follows:
- · The date of Pentecost now agrees with the book of Jubilees and the Dead Sea Scrolls
- · The holy festivals, that require a lot of work to be performed, are no longer on Sabbath rest days
- · The new day starts at dawn
The Feast of Weeks, Pentecost Date Calculation
It is difficult placing the Feast of Weeks, also called
Pentecost, on the calendar strictly based on our bibles since we must determine
what date ‘next day after the Sabbath’
implies.
“Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, "Speak
to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'When you have come into the land
which I give to you, and shall reap its the harvest, then you shall bring the
sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest: and he shall wave the
sheaf before Yahweh, to be accepted for you. On the next day after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.” WEB
Leviticus23:9-11
The book of Jubilees places the date of the Feast of Weeks
on the 15th day of the 3rd Month which is in agreement
with the Dead Sea scrolls. On this
page of my site I provide a detailed account of events that occurred on
this date from the book of Jubilees along with the feast dates in the Dead Sea
Scrolls. Therefore, the writer of the
book of Jubilees and the Essenes that wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls both agreed
that the date ‘next day after the
Sabbath’ is the Sabbath after the Feast of Unleavened Bread ended. The verses prior to Leviticus 23:9 (above) are
instructions for Unleavened Bread; therefore the implication could be the
Sabbath after unleavened bread in finished.
Here is a second
author’s version of the Dead Sea Scroll calendar that shows the Wave Sheaf
on the 26th day of the 1st Month and Pentecost on the 15th
of the third Month.
Numbers
chapter 6 explains the Nazirite Vow which is a special vow of dedication to Our Father. It is an eight day process. Jesus was resurrected on Abib 18 and eight
days later is Abib 26 which is the date of the Wave Sheaf according to the Dead
Sea scrolls. Therefore, it is on Abib 26
that Jesus became our High Priest according to the law of Melchizedek. Leviticus chapter 9 confirms
that Aaron also was not ordained until the 8th day.
The laws for purification and circumcision of a baby boy, explained
in Leviticus chapter 12,
are also an 8 day process. Therefore, it appears that 8 days are required both
the dedication of a new baby boy and a high priest.
Sabbath Day & Feast Day Conflict
It is a conflict of the law to have a feast day on a Sabbath
day. Our Father gave us the Sabbath Day so
that we could rest once a week; whereas, feast days are days that Our Father wants
us to perform specific work for HIM.
Here are examples of the Sabbath Day laws:
“And on the seventh day
God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done. So God
blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested
from all his work that he had done in creation.” ESV Genesis 2:2-3
“See, for that the Lord
hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread
of two days; abide
ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
So the people rested on the seventh day.” KJV Exodus 16:29-30
"Remember the
Sabbath day, to keep it holy. You shall labor six days, and do all your work,
but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God. You shall not do any work in it,
you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your man-servant, nor your maid-servant,
nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates; for in six days
Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the
seventh day; therefore Yahweh blessed the Sabbath day, and made it
holy.” WEB Leviticus 20:8-11
“You shall keep the
Sabbath therefore; for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall surely
be put to death; for whoever does any work therein, that soul shall be cut off
from among his people.” WEB Exodus 31:14
“'Six days shall work be
done, but on the seventh day there shall be a holy day for you, a Sabbath of
solemn rest to Yahweh: whoever
does any work in it shall be put to death. You shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations on
the Sabbath day.'" WEB Exodus 35:2-3
The Feast of Trumpets which is the same
day as the Fall Division Festival must not be on a Sabbath since they were to work
all day preparing offerings. This is not
a day of rest at all:
“In the seventh month, on
the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no
servile work: it is a day of blowing of trumpets to you. You shall offer a
burnt offering for a sweet savor to Yahweh: one young bull, one ram, seven
he-lambs a year old without blemish; and their meal-offering, fine flour mixed
with oil, three tenth parts for the bull, two tenth parts for the ram, and one
tenth part for every lamb of the seven lambs; and one male goat for a
sin-offering, to make atonement for you; besides the burnt offering of the new moon
month, and the meal-offering of it, and the continual burnt offering and the
meal-offering of it, and their drink-offerings, according to their ordinance,
for a sweet savor, an offering made by fire to Yahweh.” WEB Numbers 29:1-6
The Unleavened Bread feast day
cannot occur on a Sabbath since Our Father asked them to travel out of Egypt, on
this date, the year prior:
“You
shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this same day have I brought your hosts out of
the land of Egypt: therefore shall you observe this day throughout
your generations by an ordinance forever.” WEB Exodus 12:17
The first day of Unleavened Bread
actually requires a lot of work and it is definitely not a Sabbath rest day:
“On the fourteenth day of
the first month is the Lord's Passover, and on the fifteenth day of this month
is a feast. Seven days shall unleavened bread be eaten. On the first day there
shall be a holy convocation. You shall not do any ordinary work, but offer a
food offering, a burnt offering to the Lord: two bulls from the herd, one ram,
and seven male lambs a year old; see that they are without blemish; also their
grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil; three tenths of an ephah shall you
offer for a bull, and two tenths for a ram; a tenth shall you offer for each of
the seven lambs; also one male goat for a sin offering, to make atonement for
you.” ESV Numbers 28:16-22
Overview of Dawn to Dawn
The Israelites regarded the morning as
the beginning of the day; in the evening the day ‘declined’ or ‘went down’
until the new day started in the morning. The Old and New Testament proves this
as a fact. When determining how the ancient Israelites reckoned their days,
there is confusion since the word ‘date’ is not found in our bibles and since
they used the word ‘day’ instead of the word ‘date’. Today we use the words ‘day’ and ‘date’ interchangeably.
The Israelites reckoned their day, new
month and New Year to all start at the same time. These all started at the
Hebrew hour 0 which is 6:00 a.m. in the morning. Hebrew hours will be discussed further in the
next section.
A day is the
period of light when the sun is above the local horizon which is the time
period from sunrise to sunset. The earth’s rotation on its inclined axis
creates a solar day and then night. There are 365.25 days in a year.

|
2:1-3
|
As you can see, Our Father started the
book of Genesis by giving as an example of how our day and week should be
reckoned, as follows:
1.
Day: he
created the day before he created the night; showing the day is first.
2.
Work Day:
he did all of HIS work during the day, before evening started.
3.
Evening:
he stopped working in the evening and did no work at night.
4.
Morning:
he started a new day in the morning and considered the previous day
done. Then he started working again in
the morning.
5.
Order of Day:
he showed us the order of our day should be; morning, day, evening,
night and then morning again.
6.
Work Days:
He worked for six days prior to resting on the seventh day.
7.
Seventh Day:
He did no work on the seventh day or night, he instead rested.
Jesus followed the this reckoning
of the work week since he explained that he needed to get his work done during
the day since no one was to perform work at night.
“I must work the works of him who sent me,
while it is day. The night is coming, when no one
can work.” WEB John 9:4
When Our Father provided us our instruction for observing HIS feast days he uses the word
‘day’; therefore Our Father is reckoning our calendar by ‘day’ and not by
‘night’. For example, we our told the
Israelites observed the Passover, on the 14th ‘day’ even though the
activity was to be performed in the evening.
“They kept the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening,
in the wilderness of Sinai. According to all that Yahweh commanded Moses, so
the children of Israel did.” WEB Numbers 9:5
In the verses below, notice that
in our instructions for observing the feast day, Our Father tells us the day or
date they should be performed. He does
not tell us which evening or night they should be performed.
“On the fifteenth
day of the same month is the
feast of unleavened bread to Yahweh. Seven days you
shall eat unleavened bread. In the first day you
shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no regular work.” WEB Leviticus
23:6-7
“In the seventh month,
on the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation;
you shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing of trumpets to you.” WEB
Numbers 29:1
“Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, The fifteenth day of this seventh month shall be the feast of
tabernacles for seven
days unto the Lord.” KJV
Leviticus 23:34
If Our Father wanted
us to reckon our 24 hour time period by evening, the above verse would read
‘The fifteenth evening of the seventh month’. If he wanted us to reckon it at
midnight, the verse would read ‘The fifteenth midnight of the seventh
month’. Since he used the word day
consistently, I believe that he wants us to reckon our time by the day and the
day starts in the morning.
There
has also been some tapering with the scriptures to make people believe that
night comes before day. Below are three
different translations showing the day is before the night:
And
thy lyfe shall hange before the, and thou shalt feare both daye [yomam] and nyghte [laylah] ad
shalt haue no trust in thy lyfe. Tyndale Deuteronomy 28:66
And
thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day [yomam] and night [laylah],
and shalt have none assurance of thy life. KJV Deuteronomy 28:66
“And
thy life shall be in suspense before thine eyes; and thou shalt be afraid by day [yomam]
and by night [laylah],
and thou shalt have no assurance of thy life.” Septuagint, Deuteronomy 28:66
Here are newer
versions of the same verses that have day and night switched which might lead
people to believe that the night is reckoned before the day:
“Your life shall hang in doubt before you.
Night
[laylah]
and day
[yomam]
you shall be in dread and have no assurance of your life.” ESV Deuteronomy
28:66
“And your life shall hang in doubt before
you; and you shall fear night [laylah] and day [yomam],
and shall have no assurance of your life.” WEB Deuteronomy 28:66
There
is a verse in Jeremiah where day and night have been switched also. Here is an earlier version of this verse:
“And thou shalt speak this word to them; Let your
eyes shed tears day [yomam] and night [laylah], and let them
not cease: for the daughter of my people has been sorely bruised, and her
plague is very grievous.” Septuagint, Jeremiah 14:17
Here are two later versions of the same verse
where they have switched night and day again:
"You
shall say to them this word: 'Let my eyes run down with tears night
[laylah] and day [yomam],
and let them not cease, for the virgin daughter of my people is shattered with
a great wound, with a very grievous blow.” ESV Jeremiah 14:17
“And
thou shalt say this word unto them, Let mine eyes run down with tears night
[laylah] and day [yomam], and let them not cease.” ASV Jeremiah
14:17
In
this verse, they are closing the gates at sundown in preparation for the
Sabbath day that will be starting the next morning. They have just probably completed their day
of work and they want to ensure that the gates are shut in preparation for the
morning. Because the Sabbath day starts
in the morning, they cannot return to close the gates on the Sabbath day since
that would be considered work and a violation of the law. No work is allowed on
the Sabbath day. Notice the verse reflects Sabbath day and not Sabbath evening
or night.
“It came to pass that, when the gates of
Jerusalem began to be dark before the Sabbath, I commanded that the doors
should be shut, and commanded that they should not be opened until after the
Sabbath: and some of my servants set I over the gates, that there should no
burden be brought in on the Sabbath day.”
WEB Nehemiah 13:19
The
Hebrew word ‘shachar’, Strong’s number 7837,
translates to the English word ‘dawn’ and is defined as; dayspring, early,
light, morning, or whence rises. The bible translator have used these words, in
our scriptures, to reflect the word ‘shachar’; dawn, dawning of the day,
daybreak, and morning. Here are examples
of verses translated from the Hebrew word ‘shachar’ and they all imply the day
was beginning:
“But the men would not hearken to him: so
the man took his concubine, and brought her forth unto them; and they knew her,
and abused her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to
spring [shachar], they let her go.” KJV Judges 19:25
“On the seventh day they rose early, at the dawn of day
[shachar], and marched around the city in the same manner seven
times. It was only on that day that they marched around the city seven
times.” ESV Joshua 6:15
“Have you commanded the morning since your days began
[shachar], and caused the dawn to know its place.” ESV Job 38:12
“So Bethel will do to you because of your
great wickedness. At daybreak [shachar] the king of Israel
will be destroyed.” WEB Hosea 10:15
The
events of Jesus' crucifixion also prove the Israelites reckoned their time
from dawn of the morning sunrise to the dawn of the morning. I will be
documenting this fact below.
Let’s
remember that Paul told us we are children of the day:
“Ye
are all the children
of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the
night, nor of darkness.” KJV
1 Thessalonians 5:5
The Hour
Above is a picture of how the
Hebrew sundial worked. The day, month,
and New Year all started at Hour 0 which is 6:00AM and scripture does prove
this also. The age of the Mazzaroth is
determined on the spring equinox at hour 0.

dial, it is on this page http://kingdomhereamerica.blogspot.com/2016/08/yahwehs-solar-hour.html

Jesus' Crucifixion & Spring Feast Event Summary
The crucifixion events prove dawn
to dawn reckoning. In order to for Jesus to be the Passover lamb, he had to fulfill the law of Passover
exactly. Our current calendar dates
below are based on Jesus being crucified and dying on April 3rd,
33AD. This is the date that many
researchers believe to be true.
The spring equinox in 33AD was on
March 20th at 7:34am.
Therefore the Passover sacrifice would be required on April 3rd.
http://data.giss.nasa.gov/ar5/srvernal.html
The new moon was March 17th at
10:00am. Therefore a lunar Passover
dinner would be on March 31st and the Jewish Passover ended on April
1st at 6:00pm. https://web.archive.org/web/20190614042628/https://aa.usno.navy.mil/faq/docs/SpringPhenom.php
The
Solar & Lunar Passover above is confirmed since these events occurred on
April 1st:
Mat
26:1-2 in two days Passover is coming (Israelite Passover)
Mat
26:3 Caiaphas plots to kill Jesus but they decide not to during the feast
(Jewish Passover) Same as Mark 14:1-2
Note: the translations in our bibles are worded to
make you think it was Passover the night of the Last Supper but it was
not. That is why I have consulted
Strong’s and have reworded the verses.

Passover Dinner
There are is no evidence that Yahshua’s
family or the Disciples had dinner that night. Yahshua did say he would have dinner when
it is fulfilled in the kingdom and he did fulfill the Passover Feast Day
prior to the sundown meal time.
There was
no mention of a passover dinner due to the law Numbers 9:10-11:
"Say to the children of Israel, 'If any man of you or of your generations is unclean by reason of a dead body, or is on a
journey far away, he shall still keep the Passover to Yahweh. In the second
month, on the fourteenth day at evening they shall keep it; they shall eat it
with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.”
1 Corth 5:7-8 Shows the
Disciples continued celebrating on the future Passovers.
Mat 27:57 It was late evening G3798 or
nightfall & a rich man Joseph took Yahshua to be wrapped in clean linen
& they put him in a tomb.
Mark 15:42 When late evening G3798 or
nightfall had already come because it was the preparation day, Joseph came to
get Yahshua’s body.
Luke 23:54 When Joseph put Yahshua in the tomb it was preparation
day and the Sabbath was
beginning to dawn G2020 (to let shine). (it was getting close to 6:00am or

first day you shall hold a holy assembly, and on the seventh day a holy
assembly. No work shall be done on those days. But what everyone needs to
eat, that alone may be prepared by you.

Sabbath Day
& Unleavened Bread Feast Day Starts
No work this day except what is required for

Conclusion
Jesus had to
fulfill the Passover laws in order to be our Passover lamb, therefore, we must
get this timing correct. Please also see
this document on the
Passover laws.
“You shall sacrifice the passover at evening, at the going down of the
sun, at the time that you came forth out of Egypt.” KJV Deuteronomy 16:6
Scripture proves that our day starts at sunrise and that Jesus last supper was not a Passover meal.
There are three different meals with three different types of bread
requirements that prove our day cannot start at sundown and does start at
sunrise.
- Abib 13: Loaf bread with wine at the Last Supper.
- Abib 14: Unleavened bread with bitter herbs at Passover.
- Abib 15: Plain unleavened bread during the feast of Unleavened bread.
“Your boasting is not good. Do you not know
that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Cleanse out the old leaven that
you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover
lamb, has been sacrificed. Let us therefore celebrate the festival, not with
the old leaven, the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened
bread of sincerity and truth. ESV 1 Corth 5:8
The day does start when the sun rises which is just obvious, who told us that a day starts at night is bewildering. Jubilees 49:10 Let the children of Israel come and observe the Passover on the day of its fixed time, on the fourteenth day of the first month, between the evenings, from the third part of the day to the third part of the night, for two portions of the day are given to the light, and a third part to the evening. 11 This is that which YAHWEH commanded you that you should observe it between the evenings. 12 And it is not permissible to slay it during any period of the light, but during the period bordering on the evening, and let them eat it at the time of the evening, until the third part of the night, and whatever is left over of all its flesh from the third part of the night and onwards, let them burn it with fire.
