"Chesvan 17"


Shalom All:

A sister in Yeshua asked me this:
What day is marheshvan 17?

I replied:
Hmmm  ... I know of a month of Chesvan also Heshvan but not marheshvan, HOWEVER, they could very well be the same!  Chesvan is the month right after Tishrei (Ethanim), the month in which are all the fall feasts.  Chesvan doesn't have any such major feasts.  It is associated with the tribe of Dan and Scorpio the Scorpion.  Kislev follows this month and near the end of Kislev begins the eight days of Chanukah.

I went to www.stevequayle.com.  It's interesting that IF these are true prophets and they are describing incoming this fall(?), then between now and then the Seals of 1-5 of Revelation must be opened in the next months for those who believe they have not yet been opened.  I however believe 1-5 have already been opened and what is described here fits perfectly for Seal 6 which is what I've been waiting for it.

I personally don't see there is any place "safe" on the earth when this happens.  The powers that be on the earth now and later along with satan will then be in control so I pray, pray, pray, that we are worthy to be out of here and with Yeshua.

Only at Seal 7, Trumpet 7, as the bowls of Wrath are poured out, does another even greater such earthquake/devestation of the earth happen.

When I got to #25 of  http://www.stevequayle.com/index1.html  I saw the item of Marheshvan 17.  The "old" calendar is the ordering of the months at the flood and before Pesach happened.

Starting Genesis 7:6
 - 10th of second month (Cheshvan -"old" calendar) Noah enters ark.
 - 17th of second month flooding begins.
 - 40 days of rain (into Kislev) and total "flooding" was 150 days (5 months).
 - GOD remembers them!  Genesis 8:1
 - 17th of seventh month (Nisan/Abib) Ark RESTING on Ararat.  Genesis 8:4  This would be the same "date" as when Yeshua was the First Fruit.
 - 1st of tenth month (Tamuz) the tops of the mountains showing.  Genesis 8:5
 - 40 days pass from then (to Av 10?) and Noah opens Ark window for Raven (and Dove?).  Genesis 8:6
 - Raven keeps coming/going to Ark: Dove returns to Noah - 7 day wait for release and returns with leaf; again 7 day wait for release but now no return.  (14 days? from Av 10 to Av 24?)
 - 1st of first month (Tishrei/Ethanim) water had dried from the earth but all remain on Ark.  Noah removes the covering(?) from off the Ark and sees (for the first time?) the ground is dry. Genesis 8:13
 -  27nd of second month (Cheshvan/ one year and 10 days from START of the flooding the earth) GOD calls all out of the Ark.  Genesis 8:14-15

So Chesvan 17 would be around October 31 of this year if Chesvan starts October 14.

Thank you for sharing the info and the question!  I'll now add the Noah info to my Jewish Calandar.  It's interesting how the flood "interacts" with the
various feasts/celebrations.  After removing your name, I'll post this at the Doves.
