"Cheshvan or Kislev in 2019: With Thanks to Fay and Thanks to Daniel Matson"


Dear Fay, Daniel, and Doves,

   Thank you Fay for your recent kind words about articles I have written about Hanukkah. I enjoy your weekly posts! Unlike a number of others, I believe we are in the Month of Kislev rather than Cheshvan. I follow the Creation Calendar (Torah Calendar) rather than the Hillel. There are major days in Month 8 Cheshvan: the weekly Shabbats and "The Days of Noah" especially Cheshvan 10 and 17. In addition to the Shabbats, the Days of Hanukkah stand out as significant in Month 9. Hanukkah begins the evening of 11-22-2019 on The Torah Calendar.

   The date of 11-8-2019 is Cheshvan 10 on the Hillel Calendar. A DAY OF NOAH. However, it will be Kislev 11 on The Torah Calendar, a Friday. This will be 15 days before Hanukkah begins. There are 4 events associated with Kislev 11 in Jewish History. None are Scriptural Events like Cheshvan 10 or 17, which are attention grabbers.
* A Jewish community which had existed since Roman times was expelled from Naples, Italy in 1510.
* Death of Baruch Spinosa, a Jewish heretic philosopher who was excommunicated in Amsterdam for his philosophy of pantheism, 1677.
* Hans Frank, the Nazi Governor of Poland, required Jews to wear a blue star, 1939.
* There were 7000 Minsk Jews executed, 1942.

   In a recent timeline at www.watchfortheday.org, Daniel Matson has a chart titled "The Possible 70th Week" with the 7 year shavua of Daniel's 70th Week possibly beginning the 2520 days as of 11-8-2019. The days 2520 and 2550 would be from The Feast of Tabernacles 2026 to Hanukkah 2026. The midpoint of 1260 days would be Passover 2023. I have researched and learned significant things. For the years 2023 and 2026, the Hillel Calendar and Torah Calendar dates match. MATCH! I consider this fascinating. Thank you for all your research, Daniel. Will 11-8- 2019 be really MOMENTOUS as Israel goes to Shabbat and her midnight hour? We shall see.


With Love and Shalom,
Jean
