The LORD’s Holidays & Dates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

(Lev 23:2, 4)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The explanation for most the LORD’s holidays is below on this page and has dates for the holidays, but the links directly below may be easier to use for someone and will be the reference tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Dates are listed below for the 2 ways the LORD’s holidays are figured for those who want to know in order to celebrate the holidays or just want to know when they are taking place. 1st way is at the top section by New Moon sightings. 2nd way is at the bottom section. This list will be updated to stay current. There are articles from WhyAlive about some of the LORD’s holidays, but not all of them. Until there are complete articles for all the holidays, links will go to Hebrew4Christians. See their Holidays<\/a> page for more info.<\/strong> See the “Marriage”<\/a> article from WhyAlive to see how the holidays line up with the Biblical marriage. <\/strong>Some people are asking about the Shemiththah\/Shemitah years and the Yovel\/Jubilee years. Though you could calculate those years using the WhyAlive Timeline<\/a>, these years are at the very bottom of this page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scripture Readings for Shabbat and Holidays<\/u><\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The holidays calculated according to the New Moon being established by the 1st sighting of its 1st light.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The first light of the Moon seen after an astronomical new moon establishes the 1st day of the month that occurs at sunset [ref]<\/a>. This is how the Hebrew calendar was to be calculated according to the LORD. There is a time when the Moon is dark. The 1st day the light of the Moon is seen is considered the Rosh-Chodesh\/New-Moon<\/a>. The Danjon limit is the smallest angular separation between the Sun and the Moon when the first light of the Moon can be seen [ref]<\/a>. A Danjon limit of 7 is used in these calculations with a limit below 7 possibly seen (have to have two witness see it though<\/em>) but not affecting most months. If there are 2 dates, it is because the Danjon limit is to close to predict the exact date (from 7-12<\/em>).
A Hebrew day goes from sunset to sunset (Lev 23:32). Also, If there are 29 days in a month, the month may have 30 days if the weather does not allow for the Moon to be seen on the 29th day. (Just a note: a 29.5 day month is an average, months can be shorter or longer, I have seen a month with 28 days.<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Different things can cause a leap month (13th month<\/em>) to be added [ref]<\/a>. Leap months are added if the 16th day of the 1st month would occur before the vernal spring equinox (3\/19, 3\/20, 3\/21) [ref: (goto verse 8)]<\/a>. But, there has to be barley ready to harvest for Yom haBikkurim (Day of the First Fruits<\/em>) to occur (Ex 9:31; 12:1; Lev 23:9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14), so barley being ready is the main timing event for the first month of ha’Aviv\/ha’Abib (Nisan<\/em>) [ref]<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Reference area:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will be using observations from Yisra’el\/Israel from this site<\/a> to know if the barley is ready for the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All data is figured using NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory: Horizons Systems<\/a>.
Settings: Ephemeris Type = Observer Table; Target Body = Moon [Luna]; Observer Location = Jerusalem Israel (35\u00b013\u203259.9\u2033E, 31\u00b046\u203200.1\u2033N); Time Specification, Step size = 1 hour; Table Settings = custom.
Settings for Rosh-Chodesh\/New-Moon: Observer Table Settings = “#23-Sun-Observer-Target-ELONG-angle” (checked), Reference frame = ICRF, Date\/time format = calendar and Julian Day Number, Calendar type = Mixed, Time digits = HH:MM, Angle format = sexagesimal format, Refraction model = standard atmospheric refraction model, Range units = km, RTS flag = disabled, (everything else left blank). You could also check mark “#10-Illuminated-fraction” to give you an idea of the Moon’s phase.
Settings for finding spring and fall equinox: (everything the same as above with the following changes<\/em>); Target Body = Sun [Sol]; Observer Table Settings = “#2-Apparent-RA-&-DEC” (checked) and\/or “#31-Observer-ecliptic-lon.-&-lat.” (checked) with all others unchecked. #2 gives you the spring equinox at 24 or 0 and #31 gives you the fall equinox at 360 or 0. #2 gives you the fall equinox at 12 and #31 gives you the fall equinox at 180.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yovel\/Jubilee Years<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

(This was from The Seals, Trumpets, & Bowls of Revelation<\/a><\/em>) Like the 7th day of the week being a day of rest called the Sabbath (Shabbat<\/em>), the 7th year is a year of rest for the land called the Shemiththah (Shemitah<\/em>) (Ex 20:8, 9, 10, 11; Lev 25:2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7). The year after 7-weeks-of-years\/the-7th-Shemiththah (7 \u00d7 7 Shemitah = 49 years<\/em>) is the 50th year called a Yovel (Jubilee<\/em>) and is a year of release, return, and rest for the family of the LORD and their land (Lev 25:8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 25, 28, 39, 40, 41, 47, 54). The verses of Leviticus 25:8, 9, 10 allow for the Yovel\/Jubilee to be calculated by counting 49 consecutive years (if Yovel is during the 1st year of counting the next 49 years<\/em>) or by counting 50 consecutive years (if Yovel is its own year and the 1st year of counting the next 49 years is after it<\/em>) from the beginning of the year, starting with the 1st day of the 7th Hebrew month (ha\u2019Ethanim\/Tishri<\/em>) around the fall equinox and announced with shophar\/shofar on the 10th day of ha\u2019Ethanim (Tishri<\/em>) (Lev 25:9; Rosh Hashanah 8b:10<\/a>). (The 1st day of ha\u2019Aviv [Nisan] around the spring equinox is the New Year for the beginning of the months [Ex 12:2; 13:4].<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(This is from the Timeline<\/a><\/em>) We know in what years the Shemiththah\/Shemitah year occurs every 7th year allowing for the 49 count Yovel (Jubilee<\/em>) [5]<\/a>. Due to the events noted in the Map of Seals, Trumpets, & Bowls<\/a><\/em>, we know when a 49 count or 50 count Yovel\/Jubilee occurs. The Shemiththah\/Shemitah and Yovel\/Jubilee count started when Yisra\u2019el\/Israel entered Kena\u2018an\/Canaan<\/a> (Lev 25:2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12). Then all the Word\/Scripture has to fit what is already known. And, the counting of the 49 count Yovel\/Jubilee that started after Yisra\u2019el\/Israel entered Kena\u2018an\/Canaan also started the year of 1 AC (A<\/u>fter C<\/u>reation<\/em>) (4012 BC<\/em>) beginning on the 1st day of ha\u2019Ethanim (Tishri<\/em>)<\/a>. (The 50 count Shemiththah and Yovel start to be counted during the 2nd Temple<\/em>. There is no event that even comes close to lining up with the 50 count Yovel before the 2nd Temple.<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The last 49 count Yovel\/Jubilee was during the Hebrew year that occurred starting on the 1st day of the-7th-Month\/ha’Ethanim\/Tishri in 2016 AD and ended on the last day of the 6th-Hebrew-Month\/Elul in 2017 AD. It was the 123rd Yovel since Creation. It was the 71st Yovel since Yisra’el\/Israel entered Kena\u2018an\/Canaan<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The last 50 count Yovel\/Jubilee was during the Hebrew year that occurred starting on the 1st day of the-7th-Month\/ha’Ethanim\/Tishri in 2017 AD and ended on the last day of the 6th-Hebrew-Month\/Elul in 2018 AD. It was the 51st Yovel since the 2nd Temple was finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Shemiththah\/Shemitah Years<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The last Shemiththah\/Shemitah for the 49 count Yovel\/Jubilee was during the Hebrew year that occurred starting on the 1st day of the-7th-Month\/ha’Ethanim\/Tishri in 2022 AD and ended on the last day of the 6th-Hebrew-Month\/Elul in 2023 AD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next Shemiththah\/Shemitah for the 49 count Yovel\/Jubilee will be during the Hebrew year that occurs starting on the 1st day of the-7th-Month\/ha’Ethanim\/Tishri in 2029 AD and ending on the last day of the 6th-Hebrew-Month\/Elul in 2030 AD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The last Shemiththah\/Shemitah for the 50 count Yovel\/Jubilee was during the Hebrew year that occurred starting on the 1st day of the-7th-Month\/ha’Ethanim\/Tishri in 2024 AD and ended on the last day of the 6th-Hebrew-Month\/Elul in 2025 AD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next Shemiththah\/Shemitah for the 50 count Yovel\/Jubilee will be during the Hebrew year that occurs starting on the 1st day of the-7th-Month\/ha’Ethanim\/Tishri in 2031 AD and ending on the last day of the 6th-Hebrew-Month\/Elul in 2032 AD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Just a final note: we only celebrate the 49 count Yovel & Shemiththah. But, we keep track of the 50 count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
