Bible Question: what is the time line for the seven feasts in the o.t.. jewish calander time line. please. we start our year in january. they start theirs in a another month.... |
Bible Answer: zil4god, first of all you have to realize that the Jewish calendar has TWO calendars. There is the civil year, with which they just celebrated their “New Years Days” Rosh Hashanah (a 2 day celebration). The civil year starts with the month called Tishre, which is “our” September and October. On the third day of the New Year is TzomGadalyah (Fast of Gedaliah). 9This 1st month (Tishri) of the “civil year” is the 7th month of the sacred year. Actually, according to the Torah, the seventh month Nisan/Abib begins their sacred calendar.) Then comes Yom Kikkur (Day of Atonement) on the 10th day. Then comes Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles) on the 15th through the 21st days is a harvest festival time. Then comes Shemini Atzeret on the 22nd day. Then comes Simhat Torah on the 23rd day. Kislev is their 3rd month of the civil year. Sometimes it has 30 days in it and sometimes they have only 29 days. It is their 9th month of their sacred calendar. This coincides with our Nov and Dec. Hanakkah (which lasts for 8 days) is on the 25th of Kislev. The story of “why” etc. can be found in the books of Maccabees. Purim – the festive festival is in the Jew’s month of Adar – Tannit Ester (Feast of Easter) is the 13th and 14th day. The Pesah (Passover) – A Jewish Celebration of Liberation – is celebrated next. Nisan 15th to 22nd, Nisan takes in the last of March and first of our April. Sivan – the Feast of Weeks – is celebrated on the 6th and 7th day of Sivan (between our May and June. Blessings, Taleb |
