"TO CHANCE -- Noah Entered The Ark the 17th Day of the Second Month of Cheshvan, Not Nisan"


This is in reply to you 4/19 post Blue Heaven: "THAT DAY,,,,210 NOAH" - Seventeenth Day of the Second Month. in which you stated the following in the blue background:

Gigi at Blue Heaven You Tube channel had a recent video about 'the seventeenth day of the second month.'
 
We know this is the day that the Flood started.
 
But she points out that it's also the day "that the serpent came an approached the woman."  It's "the anniversary of humanity's first disobedience."  Jubilees 3:17
 
The seventeenth day of the second month is sunset May 4 to sunset May 5.  Seven days before that is the tenth day of the second month - the day the doors of the Ark were shut by God - that's sunset April 27 to sunset April 28.  She is using the Torah Calendar.

The Torah Calendar Gigi used Torah Calendar was first instituted during the time of Moses when the Lord told him to make the month of Nisan (Abib or Aviv) the beginning of the months and the first month of the year according to Exodus 12:1-2. Don't forget that Moses also wrote the first 5 books of the Bible which is also called the Torah.  The calendar is based on their agricultural or spiritual year which is their religious year calendar presently.
However, during Adam & Eve's time & Noah's time the 1st month of the year was called Tishri (Sept.-Oct.), the 2nd month was called Cheshvan (Oct.-Nov.), and the 7th month was Nisan (Mar.-Apr.).  When the Lord told Moses to make Nisan the 1st month of the year, then Tishri became the 7th month of the year on their religious calendar, but Tishri is still the 1st month on their civil calendar. Tishri 1 called the Feast of Trumpets or "Rosh Hashanah is the celebration of creation as it correlates to the Judeo-Christian beliefs — God created Adam and Eve as the first man and woman and subsequently humanity became as we now know it." Rosh Hashanah: Creation's Beginning

So the great flood during Noah's time began on the 17th day of Cheshvan (Genesis 7:11) which was called the 2nd month at that time. According to Genesis 8:4, "the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat" which would have been Nisan 17 during Noah's time with Nisan being the 7th month on the calendar. Jesus also rose from the dead on the Feast of Firstfruits (Nisan 17).  The article called Torah Portion Noach - As in the Days of Noah states the following:

"The first thing that we must understand is the calendar being used during the time of Noah. Not understanding the calendar can cause confusion and details can be missed. In the days of Noah, the year would have begun in our September/October. Even on the Hebrew calendar today we know that their civil year begins at this time. The ancient Babylonian calendar started at this time. Now, I know that might come as a shock to you, but consider that the shemita years as well as the jubilee years all begin at this time, not in the spring. On the Hebrew calendar this corresponds to the month of Tishri, the 7th month. The Jews call the first day of the month of Tishri - Rosh HaShanna (head of the year)."

"So, when did God change the calendar? Read Exodus 12:1-2. It was changed at the Passover. This is when the first month was changed from Tishri in the fall to the Aviv (ripening) of the barley in the spring, our month of March/April." FULL STORY at above link.
