New Moon Cycle
(Book of Jubilees) 6:37 seasons and comes in from year to year ten days too soon.
Year after year there is a ten day difference. Example: The New Moon in 2004 of March is day 20th-21st. In 2005 of March it is 9th-10th.
Exodus.12:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, 2: This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.
Exodus.14:3 And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place: there shall no leavened bread be eaten. 4: This day came ye out in the month Abib.
Abib's new moon must occur before the spring harvest begins.
Deut. 16:9 Seven weeks shalt thou number unto thee: begin to number the seven weeks from such time as thou beginnest to put the sickle to the corn. This instruction concerns the waive sheaf which is cut and waived before Yahwah at the Passover festival in the middle of Abib. Since the spring harvest in Israel begins in late March or early April, this means that the 1st of Abib would begin some 15 days before the waive sheaf was cut; which means that Abib's new moon would occur at about the time of the vernal equinox.
The Westminster Dictionary of the Bible article Year confirms this:
The year begins with the month of Abib or Nisan (Exodus 12:2, 23:15, Esther 3:7) with the new moon just before or next after the vernal equinox.
Notes
If Abib were to begin 15 days before the spring equinox (the earliest it can ever be if the "nearest before or after guideline" is being followed) then the spiritual Passover will coincide with the celestial pass over. In other words, the sun will be passing over the equator at the same time the sacred Passover service is being celebrated. This phenomenon of the celestial and spiritual Passovers coinciding happens very rarely.
Note also that by choosing the new moon nearest the equinox, the Passover Service which occurs 14 days later on the evening of the 14th of Abib will never fall before the spring equinox; that is before the 20th March. The Passover Service will rarely coincide with the equinox, when the sun will also be passing over the equator; but it should never fall before the equinox. This means that the very earliest date for the 1st of Abib will be the 7th of March. The Passover Service should not be celebrated before the equinox.

In regards to the weekly seventh day Sabbath. According to the Biblical Calendar, Passover is always on Saturday, the seventh day of the week.
Because the Biblical Calendar is 364 days a year, Sunday is always the start of that calendar, that always being the first day of the week.
Any calendar that has more than 364 days in a year, or less than 364 days in a year, and you will end up having the festivals on the wrong day of the week. There was no need to keep track of the missing days, because with that system of things that calendar would self correct in time.
Leviticus 23
King James Version (KJV)
6 And on the fifteenth day of the same month is The Feast of Unleavened Bread unto the Lord: seven days ye must eat unleavened bread.
7 In the first day ye shall have an holy convocation: ye shall do no servile work therein.
Leviticus 23
King James Version (KJV)
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the Lord, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the Sabbath the priest shall wave it.
Does two Sabbaths next to each other make a plural? Is bringing the wheat harvest in for the priest, work? If so, then Monday is the 16th for the sheaf waving.
There were two Calendars in use during the days of Christ and his disciples. The Biblical Calendar, and the Hellenistic Lunar Calendar. Which one do you think Yahshua and his disciples used?

Passover begins on Friday at sunset and ends on Saturday at sunset.
Unleavened Bread begins Saturday at sunset and ends Sunday at sunset.
First Fruits begins Sunday at sunset and ends Monday at sunset.
Sunset on Monday is three full days and nights. The women went to visit the tomb Tuesday morning.
Beside that, there was a Roman guard of one hundred men guarding the tomb, because the tumb was ordered sealed shut.

Note: A Roman Centurion is the commander of one hundred men.
Matthew 27:64, 65.
So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. Otherwise, his disciples may come and steal the body and tell the people that he has been raised from the dead. This last deception will be worse than the first.” “Take a guard,” Pilate answered. “Go, make the tomb as secure as you know how.”
Matthew 27:54
When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, “Surely he was the Son of God!”
Mark 15:39
And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!”
Mark 15:44
Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died.
Mark 15:45
When he learned from the centurion that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph.

Bardesan wrote the following:
Bardesan, therefore, an aged man, and one celebrated for his knowledge of events, wrote, in a certain work which was composed by him, concerning the synchronisms with one another of the luminaries of heaven, speaking as follows :-- Two revolutions of Saturn, 60 years; 5 revolutions of Jupiter, 60 years; 40 revolutions of Mars, 60 years; 60 revolutions of the Sun, 60 years; 72 revolutions of Venus, 60 years; 150 revolutions of Mercury, 60 years; 720 revolutions of the Moon, 60 years.
And this," says he, "is one synchronism of them all; that is, the time of one such synchronism of them. So that from hence it appears that to complete too such synchronisms there will be required six thousands of years. Thus :-- 200 revolutions of Saturn, six thousands of years; 500 revolutions of Jupiter, 6 thousands of years; 4 thousand revolutions of Mars, 6 thousands of years; Six thousand revolutions of the Sun, 6 thousands of years." 7 thousand and 200 revolutions of Venus, 6 thousands of years; 12 thousand revolutions of Mercury, 6 thousands of years." 72 thousand revolutions of the Moon, 6 thousands of years."
These things did Bardesan thus compute when desiring to show that this world would stand only six thousands of years

Book of Jubilees, Chapter 6
32 And you are to command the children of Israel that they observe the years according to this reckoning, three hundred and sixty four days, and (these) will constitute a complete year, and they will not disturb its time from its days and from its feasts; for everything will fall out in them according to their testimony, and they will not leave out any day nor disturb any feasts.
33 But if they do neglect and do not observe them according to His commandment, then they will disturb all their seasons and the years will be dislodged from this (order.) And they will disturb the seasons, and the years will be dislodged, and they will neglect their ordinances.
34 And all the children of Israel will forget and will not find the path of the years, and will forget the new moons, and seasons, and Sabbaths and they will go wrong as to all the order of the years.
35 For I know and from henceforth will I declare it unto thee, and it is not of my own devising; for the book (sets) written before me, and on the heavenly tablets the division of days is ordained, lest they forget the feasts of the covenant and walk according to the feasts of the Gentiles after their error and after their ignorance.
36 For there will be those who will assuredly make observations of the moon, how (it) disturbs the seasons and comes in from year to year ten days too soon.
37 For this reason the years will come upon them when they will disturb (the order), and make an abomination the day of testimony, and an unclean day a feast day, and they will confound all the days, the holy with the unclean, and the unclean day with the holy; for they will go wrong as to the months and Sabbaths and feasts and Jubilees.
38 For this reason I command and testify to you that you must testify to them; for after your death your children will disturb (them), so that they will not make the year three hundred and sixty four days only, and for this reason they will go wrong as to the new moons and seasons and Sabbaths and festivals, and they will eat all kinds of blood with all kinds of flesh.
The Holy Hebrew Solar Calendar was replaced by the Hellenist in 167 BC with the Lunar Calendar. The Hellenist took over the temple from the priesthood in charge at that time. The Hellenist were a secret society that consisted of mainly the wealthy. This event is what lead to the Civil Hebrew Calendar.

The book of Jubilees is merely a secondary witness to 1Enoch. If you accept what is written in this passage then why do you not accept the book of 1Enoch as a witness of these same things? The section called "the book of the luminaries" from 1Enoch particularly lays out all of this and expounds the year in much greater detail than the book of Jubilees. Likewise the first statement from that section clearly states, (prophetically) that the year portrayed therein would hold firm unto the end of the age when a "new order of creation would be accomplished", (by the Father through His Messiah). The year was three hundred and sixty-four days, and each day was divided into eighteen parts, and there are clearly expounded four days which are the two equinoxes and the two solstices. The four months containing those days were therefore the only four months containing thirty-one days while all other months had thirty days. Three hundred sixty-four days, fifty-two weeks, and thus, exactly fifty-two Shabbatot. However the pole shift in the great day of Golgotha, which brought the sun down at midday, (as foretold in Isaiah 24:19-20 KJV and Amos 8:9-10 KJV) causing darkness over all the land from the sixth hour to the ninth hour, at the same time altered the length of the day, (not the length of the year) and thus "a new order of creation" was accomplished in the great day of Golgotha. The book of the luminaries from 1Enoch foretold this, and it was well known before the advent of Messiah, and it surely came to pass.
Enoch 72:1 (R.H. Charles 1917)
1. The book of the courses of the luminaries of the heaven, the relations of each, according to their classes, their dominion and their seasons, according to their names and places of origin, and according to their months, which Uriel, the holy angel, who was with me, who is their guide, showed me; and he showed me all their laws exactly as they are, and how it is with regard to all the years of the world and unto eternity, till the new creation is accomplished which dureth till eternity.

Whether from the Ethiopic or Greek clearly R.H. Charles here renders the first usage of what would have been aion in the Greek as "eternity" (highlighted above) when it should read "age" instead because of the context itself: "with regard to all the years of the world and unto the [end of the] age, till the new creation is accomplished which endures unto [the] ages." The same appears to be the case with the other most popular extant translation:
Enoch 71:1 (R. Lawrence 1883)
1. The book of the revolutions of the luminaries of heaven, according to their respective classes, their respective powers, their respective periods, their respective names, the places where they commence their progress, and their respective months, which Uriel, the holy angel who was with me, explained to me; he who conducts them. The whole account of them, according to every year of the world for ever, until a new work shall be effected, which will be eternal.

Also, dear moonchild, it is not "new moon" but rather "new month".
An evening consists of the time period from when the sun begins its downward trek across the sky until sundown. On an eighteen hour sundial where each hour is eighty minutes as opposed to sixty, such as the sundial of Ahaz, the time of "the going down of the sun" would begin at about 1:20PM in the modern terms of a twenty-four hour clock, (and therefore the scripture says "between the evenings").
And as already stated:
And there is evening, and there is morning: Yom Echad. - Genesis 1:5
The moonstruck lunatic seleniazomenous cannot understand. :crackup:
Elohim made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and lesser light to rule the night, (Genesis 1:16). The greater light rules over the sons of the light and the lesser light rules over the sons of darkness. The sons of light walk by the light of the day and are sons of the day, (John 11:9-10 ASV, John 12:36 ASV, Ephesians 5:8 ASV, 1 Thessalonians 5:5 ASV) and this no doubt includes the calendar by which the sons of light walk. The sons of darkness walk by the lesser light and thus their calendar and days are likewise ruled by the moon, (GSN#4583 seleniazomai, moonstruck).

Also, dear moonchild, it is not "new moon" but rather "new month".
A new month for Jews in Israel, but not in America.
GSN#3561 noumenia ~ GSN#3501 neos (new) + GSN#3376 men (month).
Nothing about GSN#4582 selene, (the moon) and neomenia, (new month) and men-menas-mesin, (month-months) will be found throughout the entire Septuagint version of the entire TaNaK. Those who translated the Hebrew Scriptures into the Greek Septuagint, and likewise even Paul, (Colossians 2:16) did not understand chodesh to mean the moon or new moon.

Regards to New Moon. In the bible, the first day of the month began with the New Moon.
Why should I take your word for it without any evidence?
I call your bluff: prove it. :crackup:

The following passage is the first place "new moon" is found the KJV Masoretic Text:
1 Samuel 20:5 KJV (Ye olde king James Talmudic moonlighters rendering)
5. And David said unto Jonathan, Behold, to morrow is the new moon, [HSN#2320 chodesh] and I should not fail to sit with the king at meat: but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field unto the third day at even.
Can either of you tell me how it is that David, Jonathan, and king Saul with his court all knew when the new moon would occur, even before it actually occurred, if indeed the first sliver of light from the new moon must be observed before the day the new moon can be proclaimed?
1 Samuel 20:5 LXX-Septuagint
5. και ειπεν δαυιδ προς ιωναθαν ιδου δη νεομηνια αυριον και εγω καθισας ου καθησομαι μετα του βασιλεως φαγειν και εξαποστελεις με και κρυβησομαι εν τω πεδιω εως δειλης
νεομηνια : neomenia : GSN#3561 noumenia (GSN#3501+GSN#3376) - "new month"
Ye and ye olde king Jimmy with his court of court jesters are essentially third and fourth century Talmudists, moon watchers, and observers of clouds, though ye know it not. When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and gloomy. Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but the appointed times ye cannot discern!

I'm not really sure what the deal is here. One man esteems one day above another.
Another man esteems every day alike.
From that scripture it looks like the dude is saying he's gonna hide out for three days after they declare the new moon sometime tomorrow.
I might be interested to know what time of year this moon was and what kind of spiritual truth may be gleaned from knowing a little more about it.
Also what was the importance of sitting at the king's table after the new moon or month was declared.
Looked like he was gonna be 3 days late, what's up with that?
Just curious.
