Navigating the Calendars
The LORD's Feast Days and many Biblical events are noted in the calendar sections below.
There are four Jewish New Years:
- 1 Abib ~ Nissan - New Year for Kings and Festivals
- 1 Elul - New Year for Animal Tithes
- 1 Tishrei - New Year for Years
- 15 Shevat - New Year for Trees
Based on the lunar cycle, the Jewish calendar can vary from year to year. The Jewish Learning Institute encapsulates a portion of the intricacies in this video link . There are several interpretations of counting by various groups within the Jewish community, each with their own understanding. Below are two examples of following the Civil and traditional Biblical calendars. There are others which include the Torah as well as Essene calendars.
Hence all the more to be watching as the LORD Jesus Christ commanded. Link to Devorah's Date Tree Newsletter
