In Relation to the Feasts of

For those that seek to study the End Times or Eschatology,
the issue of which Calendar is the ‘Correct’ one is and has
been a ‘Thorn in the Side’ of such an Endeavor. There are so
many Calendars to consider that it is really frustrating to
contemplate and try to ascertain which one is the Precise
One or the most Accurate one. The Questions have been asked
before in light of such a Question. What type of Calendar
was used since Adam in the Garden of Eden? What is the same
up until the Flood of Noah?
Did the Pre-Flood Calendar have 12 or 13 Months? Did each
Month have 30 Days each? There are pieces of Evidence that
suggest many of the proposed Theories about which Calendar
was used are True. But it seems there is so much Confusion
still. In studying the End Times for so many Years, one
cannot say with 100% certainty, which present Calendar Type
is the most accurate one. One does lean more so on the ones
that were and are based on the Spring Equinox, which is thus
Solar Based.
One such example of an Alternative Solar Calendar is found
on the Messianic Light Website posted by a Man named Larry.
One would like to introduce this Calendar, if one is not
already familiar with the Theory of how the ‘True’ or the
more True Calendar is determined. One will leave the
explanation to be stated by the Author himself for one’s
Review and Consideration. The following is by Larry at
Messianic Light Website
https://bsc.messianiclight.com, with emphasis added. From
what one can surmise of this ‘Solar Calendar’, it appears to
follow the Essenes’ Interpretation of how the 1st Day is
always chosen from the Wednesday of that Week when the
Spring Equinox occurs.
_______________________
This is our current Understanding of the Biblical Solar
Calendar.
Sabbath is every 7th Day and coincides with the Gregorian
Saturday. There is never less than 7 Days between Weekly
Sabbaths, and there is never more than 7 Days between Weekly
Sabbaths.
If you ever see a Calendar where the Weekly Sabbath is not
on the same Day as the Gregorian Saturday, you can
completely disregard it without any further Consideration.
The Sabbath has not and never will change. It is ALWAYS
every 7th day. This is the only Reason we refer to the Days
of the Week with the commonly used Names. It is simply for
the purpose of coordinating with the widely understood
Gregorian Calendar.
The Year
The Year begins in the Spring. The Year begins on the 4th
Day of the Week, coinciding with the Gregorian Wednesday.
Specifically, the Year begins on the 4rth Day of the Week
nearest to the Spring Equinox.
If the Spring Equinox falls on the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd day of
the Week, the Beginning of the Year follows the Spring
Equinox. If the Spring Equinox falls on the 5th, 6th, or 7th
Day of the Week, the Beginning of the Year precedes the
Spring equinox.
The Year consists of 364 Days, 52 Weeks of 7 Days. Because
the Earth’s Orbit around the Sun is approximately 365.25
Days, every 5 or 6 Years it is necessary to add an
intercalary ‘Leap Week’. The 4 Seasons each consist of 13
Weeks, or 91 Days, made up of 3 Months of 30, 30, and 31
Days.
Passover is on the Evening of the 14th Day of the 1st
Month. Passover will always be on the Evening of the 3rd Day
of the Week. The Feast of Unleavened Bread begins on the
15th day of the 1st Month and ends on the 21st Day of the
1st Month. This 7 Day Feast always begins on the 4th Day of
the Week. The 1st Day and the 7th Day are Annual Sabbaths.
The Waving of the First-Fruits (Omer) is on the 1st Day of
the Week, on the Day after the Weekly Sabbath following the
Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is the 26th Day of the 1st
Month. This begins a 7 Week, or 50 Day (inclusive) count to
the Feast of Weeks.
The Feast of Weeks [Shavuot] is at the Conclusion of the 50
Day Count from the Waving of the Omer, which is the 15th Day
of the 3rd Month on the 1st Day of the Week.
This Day is an Annual Sabbath. It
begins a 50-Day (Inclusive) Count to the Feast of New
Wine.
[Acts 2 Pentecost] The Feast of New Wine is at the
Conclusion of the 50 Day Count from the Feast of Weeks,
which is the 3rd day of the 5th Month on the 1st Day of
the Week.
This begins a 50-Day (Inclusive) Count to the Feast of New
Oil. The Feast of New Oil is at the Conclusion of the 50 day
count from the Feast of New Wine, which is the 22nd Day of
the 6th Month on the 1st Day of the Week. The Wood Offering
follows the Feast of New Oil and lasts for 6 Days.
The Feast of Trumpets is on the 1st Day of the 7th Month.
This is always on the 4th Day of the Week. It is an Annual
Sabbath. The Day of Atonement is on the 10th Day of the 7th
Month. This is always on the 6th Day of the Week. The Day of
Atonement begins on the Evening of the 9th Day of the 7th
Month. It is an Annual Sabbath.
Feast Days
The Feast of Tabernacles begins on the 15th Day of the 7th
Month and ends on the 21st Day of the 7th month. This 7 Day
Feasts always begins on the 4th Day of the Week. The 1st Day
is an Annual Sabbath. The Eighth Day Assembly is on the 22nd
Day of the 7th Month. It is always on the 4th Day of the
Week. This is an Annual Sabbath.

Question?
Lea
Hello, Thank you for such a Great Resource! Is there any
way of knowing Historical Calendar Dates (what dates Feast
Days landed on certain Years)? I've been very interested in
how many Times and the YEARS that the 9th of Av landed on
the Feast of New Wine. For instance, did the Feast of New
Wine land on the 9th of Av on the proposed Years Jesus was
Crucified? Can anyone tell me? Or tell me how to determine
it? Thanks so much!

That is a very interesting Question and the Answer would be
dependent on your Calendar Reference. With this Solar
Calendar the Answer is No, as the Feast of New Wine always
falls on the 3rd DAY of the 5th Month [Essene Traditional
Celebration of it] so it can’t be the 9th Day. I don’t know
how often the 9th of the 5th Lunar Month might coincide with
the 3rd Day of the 5h Solar Month. Interestingly, Jeremiah
says it was the 10th.
Now on the 10th day of the 5th Month, which was the 19th
Year of King Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, Nebuzaradan
the Captain of the Bodyguard, who was in the Service of the
King of Babylon, came to Jerusalem. He burned the House of
the LORD, the King’s House and all the HOUSES of Jerusalem;
even every large House he burned with FIRE. -Jeremiah
52:12-13 NASB
Since this was the start of the Babylonian Captivity and
way before Hellenization, the Question to be considered is
whether or not the writer of this text was still following
the Solar Calendar?
_____________________
As one can sense, this Solar Calendar explanation is based on
how the Head of the Year is considering how Nisan is the 1st
Month of the Year. One is biased about it because it also how
the Day Count takes into consideration the 3 Pentecost or
Shavuot 50-Day Feasts of the First Fruit of the Wheat, Wine
and Oil.
One has argued that the Acts 2 Pentecost Event was on the
Feast of New Wine and on the 2nd Day Count of 50 Days. Meaning
that it is 99 Day since the Day after Passover of Nisan 15.
One is more convinced that it is the Acts 2 Pentecost Event
that perhaps can see or will see the Rapture of the Bride of
Christ because it is its Anniversary. This Notion is
predicated on how YHVH is the GOD of Symmetry and based on the
Prophetic Law of how the End is as the Beginning and the
Beginning is as the End.

Books
LEO NEW YEAR RAPTURE THEORY
Rendezvous at the Lion's Gate
People often say the following when asked about, ‘When is the
Rapture to occur?’ Thay say, ‘No One Knows the Day or the
Hour’? Does that Verse in the Bible really pertain to the
Rapture Timing? The purpose of this Book is to delve deep into
this Question that has been Contemplated, Contested and
Consternated for nearly 2000 Years, since the Church Age began
or was Initiated with ‘Power from on High’ in Acts 2. One will
present the Circumstantial Evidence of one’s Research,
spanning Decades worth of Study and Inquiry.

PENTECOST NEW WINE
Summer White Wheat Wedding
The purpose of this Book is to provide a Compilation of
Articles over several Years of ‘Discovery into the Journey of
Identifying where and when the True Count of Leviticus
23:15-16 occurred, i.e., the Feast of New Wine, precisely at a
99th Day Count. The challenge that his Book tackles is what is
the Start Date? Why? This initial Start Date will determine
the exact Day in which the Feast of New Wine, and thus the
Pentecost of Acts 2 occurred. The Book will present Evidence
that there are at least 3 main Theories based on differing
Calendar Start Dates.
END OF THE CHURCH AGE
Conclusion of the Commission
A study of the Astronomical and Mathematical Patterns
heralding the End of the Church Age and the coming
Transference of Testimony and the witness of the Gospel of
Jesus Christ. The 7-year Sabbatical Cycle of time suggests
that the Church Age is about to conclude and transfer the
Gospel Witness back to the Dispensation of Israel to finish
the 70th Week of Years. This specific time is predicated on
the Convergence of several Prophetic Timelines will be
presented to highlight this time of the Synchronization of
Biblical prophecy.
