Calendar 0 Barley
About the New Moon and the Beginning of the Scriptural Year. The days marked as are the dates on which the new moon for each month is expected to be visible between sunset and moonset in Johannesburg. A Scriptural month is determined by the sighting of the moon and a month can only be days or 0 days long.. The Scriptural year begins with the first new moon after the barley in Yisra el reaches the stage in its ripeness called aviv. The month of Aviv (start of the Scriptural New Year) can only be introduced with the physical presence of barley in Yisra el.. If barley is not in its stage of ripeness called aviv, then an additional month is introduced, this ensures that the month of aviv (the first Scriptural month) always falls within its proper season.. It is important to look for the new moon as the Appointed Times / Feast Days are determined by the sighting of the new moon.. The dates of the Festivals in this calendar are based on the assumption that barley will be in the stage its ripeness called aviv just before the new moon of April 0.. In creating this calendar, various sources were consulted in order to calculate the sighting of the new moon. This calendar is to assist Torah observant believers in their planning, but in the final analysis, the sighting of the new moon is paramount.. Although all care has been taken to calculate the New Moons and Festivals Days as accurately as possible, we cannot take responsibility for the actual beginning of the Feast as the new moon should be sighted by the naked eye at your location.

Each portion is named after a key word in the opening paragraph of the portion. The custom of reading the Torah on every Shabbat was already practiced in the days of Yahushua our Messiah - Please see the next page. New Moons On this calendar the New Moons are expressed in the Hebrew form, literally meaning Head/Beginning New/Renewed, denoting the first sighting of the moon after conjunction. The day after the first sighting of the moon is the first day of a new month. The New Moon days in this calendar are calculated as close as possible for Johannesburg. It is recommended that you look out for the New Moon in your area. The New Moon (beginning of the new month) determines the dates of the festivals of the first month (Aviv) and the seventh month (Tishrei). It is very important to confirm the date of the New Moon of Aviv and Tishrei, for these will influence all the dates of the Set Apart appointments legislated in Wayyiqra (Leviticus). The Scriptural year begins with the first New Moon after the barley in Israel reaches the stage in its ripeness called aviv. Appointed Times The legislated appointments of Wayyiqra (Lev.) are all calculated from the New Moons. The Jewish festival dates do not always correspond with the New Moon calculated dates. In all cases the Jewish festivals can be recognised by the candle lighting times indicated on the calendar. Pesach Passover Festival of Matzot Festival of Unleavened Bread Shavu ot Festival of Weeks (Pentecost) Yom Teru ah Day of Soundings (Trumpets) Yom hakippurim Day of Atonement Festival of Sukkot Festival of Tabernacles Shemini Atzereth Eighth Day Other Dates Several other feasts are indicated in this calendar, such as the feast of Purim and Chanukah. Although these feasts are found in Scripture, they are not legislated in the Torah. We do however recommend that these festivals be observed in the interest of Scriptural awareness. Other days of interest or Jewish holidays are also indicated, such as Tu B Shvat, Fast of Esther, Yom haatzma ut, Tisha B Av, etc. We have also indicated other dates of interest regarding the Land of Israel, as well as the regular South African public holidays. This calendar was prepared and is published by, for the purpose of raising Torah awareness among believers. Lark Street, Rant en Dal Krugersdorp.
