  • This lesson is a class on the Scriptural texts that speak of the New Moon as a set-apart or holy day on Yahweh's calendar. This day is oft neglected by Sabbath-keepers and/or Sabbath+Feast-keepers, and I am trying to bring it back into popularity among Torah-Observant Christians.

    Shalom brother. I'm a new subscriber. I love the subject matter and your calm and thoughtful manner of teaching, how you break it down to make it easy to understand. That's how I would do it. Also, I've been a luni-solar calendar believer for about 13 years now. It's ironic that a Saturday Sabbath SDA brother I have known for about 42 years now, told me in 2010 that the Sabbath (Saturday) was not the Sabbath. He gave me a book to read titled, The Great Calendar Controversy, written by 2 Seventh Day Adventists, a mother and daughter team. I was in shock for about 3 or 4 months, until I was convicted to follow Yah's calendar. By the way, the brother that gave me the book, in the end, did not accept keeping the Sabbath, as well as the Feasts, via the luni-solar calendar. Up to now, he is still keeping the Saturday Sabbath. I believe that It was not a coincidence that YAH put him in my path to introduce me to this subject. Praise be to Yahweh. In an interesting side note, the SDA Church back in 1938 studied this subject of the Luni-solar calendar. However, they hid the truth from the rest of the church for political expediency. The commission in charge of this study thought that this subject was somehow too radical or crazy, so they kept it quiet. Wow!!! May YAH continue to bless you. Mario from Goldthwaite Texas here.

    Hi
    Technology was just as advanced about celestial computations in antiquity as it is now! They had very accurate prediction capabilities for the heavenly lights with astrolabes and even more astounding, the mysterious Antikithera Mechanism! Moses being a learned man brought up in the royal courts of Egypt would have had a thorough education no doubt!

    Pray for me that I may find fellowship of those who keep all the holy days. I'm in NE Kansas way out in the country and its mostly catholic or mainstream Christianity. I have been attending SDA church as that is the closest thing I can find but they don't keep all the holy days. My partner and family don't understand so its been a struggle and I get discouraged at times. Thank you 💚

    Brother, I do not know your name, but thank you for this teaching. I am a Heavenly Calendar keeper and agree with everything you taught.
    I just want to elaborate on how I see 1 Sam 20 and the 2-day new moon. I believe this book and chapter is a very good example of 2 new moon days in a row.
    You also quoted Amos 8. Further confirmation of 2 new moon days. It is especially visible on these occasions when you can FEEL the impatience of this new moon that just will not end!
    This is how I see new moon day.
    It is always the 29th day. But the end of new moon day is where the difference comes in on how many days it is. And that is shown to us by the sliver. The sliver is unpredictable and we have to wait and observe. There is not one mobile app that can tell you that in advance. You can have a pretty good estimate with computerized models, but it is in the hands of Yahuah. Only He determines that day and shows us with the sliver. The first visible sliver is the sign in the heavens that the new moon day is over and that the next day is the first working day of the month/week. We then also know by the sliver that that day when the sliver is visible, was the 1st day of the month and count from there.
    Also, consider the scenario where you must give special offers mentioned in Numbers. How will you know when to do this, if it is not the day after the 29th day Shabbat?
    Then, I have a question. From Shabbat to Shabbat and New Moon to New Moon. These are future events. How can it be in the flesh? Is it not in the new dispensation, after we received our heavenly bodies? This question just struck me today while watching your teaching.
    Thank you and I am subscribing to not miss your advanced teaching!

      What a beautiful word of encouragement you’ve given to me brother. I thank you for that. My name is Matthew. Nice to meet you. 😊
      I appreciate your view on waiting - after the last Shabbat of the moon/month - to see a sliver to announce the *end* of the new moon period. We don’t follow that exact method, but ours aligns with yours most of the time, and what you do makes very good sense.
      I take “all flesh” in Isaiah 66 to refer to our new flesh. All flesh is not the same; there is an earthly body and there is a heavenly body (1 Cor. 15:49-40). So it’s definitely heavenly bodies in Isaiah 66:22-23.

      @Truelamb2024 Research all languages carefully… many European languages use a word (for Saturday) that has nothing to do with rest or Sabbath. Regardless though, we should take our cue from Scripture, not from what different nations call a certain day in their language. I can’t with a clear conscience step outside of Holy Scripture for my foundation on what day the Sabbath should be kept. I have to find the Sabbath timing first in Scripture, and only then step outside of it for secondary source material.

    As the work 6 and rest the 7th cycle, the keeping of the new moon days doesn't break this cycle. If we believe in the God who created all things in an orderly fashion then all things he gives us in his Torah are a part of this order. The new moons don't break the Sabbath cycle any more than the Jubilee years break the Sabbath year cycle.
    I for one rejoice in having as many opportunities to meet with the YHVH as he has provided. This is just another time devoted to seeking his face, Hebrews 11:6.

      Can you please explain this for me video maker? When a ceremonial sabbath landed on a weekly Sabbath, it was considered a high Sabbath. This proves they NEVER broke their weekly cycle!!! They fell on different days of the week every year because the start of the year was based on the first cresent after the site of the abib or early barley!
      Nobody can know the exact date of any of the feast days during Christ time according to any of our calenders Because the start of their years were based on what cant be measured today!!! So you cant say that because passover didnt fall on a Saturday according to the date YOU THINK according to our calender as PROOF they changed weekly sabbath every year. The fact that all through the bible the feast days and ceremonial days fell on different days of the week every year proves they NEVER broke the weekly cycle!! Your "proof" proves you wrong!!!
      12x28=336 days. So according to their 28 days a month lunar calender, they had around 24 extra days inbetween the start of each new year. Because 360-336=24. There is obviously more than 336 days in a year. And so instead of worrying about leap years and this and that, God had them start the beginning of each new year of which the feast and ceremonial sabbaths were based on, he had them start the next year according to the first sign of abib early barley and the cresent moon. This kept their years perfectly in sync. Brilliant. And the fact the feast days never fell on the same day of the week every year and they called the ceremonial sabbaths that fell on the weekly sabbath a high sabbath, proves that they never changed their weekly cycles ever!!!
      Because if they did, then ALL feast days would fall on the same day of the week every year, and yet they dont! And never did! Repent people. Stop encouraging others to doubt and disobey Gods 4th commandment. Its a high crime against God. Repent. Dont harden your hearts to this Truth. Youll be judged for it. Its okay if you didnt know before, but now you do. Yes, October 22 was based on the biblical way of calculating the day of atonement, absolutely. Whats your guys point?

    You commented on 1 Samuel 20 toward the end in regards to a question someone had. It says in verse 27, And it happened the next day, the second day of the month, that David’s place was empty. So the day before was the New Moon, the 1st day of the month. So would that day 2 still be counted as the first working day after the new moon?

I have heard about the fact that where it is translated moon could be done month. Which would give as the feast of the New month. Do you have any thoughts about that? I am very thankful for your teachings and testimony of life. It has been guiding my towards Yahweh and in my relation with Yashuah. Blessings to you and your ministry!

    • @emjmnc
      @emjmnc  Рік тому +1

      People who make the “new MONTH” argument are usually people who are trying to dismiss the moon from being a vital part of the Scriptural calendar. A new MOON does begin a new MONTH, but the English words moon and month are related, and the Hebrew word chodesh is related to yerach and yareach, both dealing with the actual orb of the moon.

    Shalom. Yahuah be praised. The 30th day of the month is the first day of the new moon - and in those days all months had thirty (30) days. We see the example of it being celebrated in scripture in the same way as the second day of the new moon. It does seem that the second day of the new moon has a special significance, it being the first day of the new month which begins the next cycle of four weeks. We do not have any Scriptural basis however, for not observing the 30th day or observing it any differently from the first. We should then, follow the example of Scripture.

    I see the assertion that "moon" and "month" are interchangeable, but I do not see any support for that claim. Chodesh means "month" in Hebrew. Yareach means "moon" in Hebrew. I sourced all of the scriptures that were used in this presentation as they were given, but every "new moon" is literally "new month." Even the Greek in the New Testament supports this language. Noumhnia means"new month" in Greek (Colossians 2:16). Selhnh (pronounced sel-ay'-nay) means "moon" and is named after the Greek Goddess of the moon. An example of "moon" is found in Acts 2:20.
    All scripture from different eras in different languages make a distinction between "month" and "moon." I think we should, too. There is nothing is scripture that suggests that the first day of a month is the "new moon."

      Ecclesiasticus 43 states "the month is named after the moon".
      Moon in hebrew is yereach.
      Month in hebrew is yerach.
      See, they are directly related.
      Chodesh however does NOT mean "month". The hebrew word for month in scripture is yerach.
      Chodesh only means "renew, renewal".
      But modern day people translate it as month, because they speak the language and know that month and moon are named after each other, so they draw the conclusion.
      It's called "rosh chodesh".
      Rosh = first
      Chodesh = renewal
      The first renewal (of the month: yerach). This means the first day if the month. There is ONLY one new moon day. There is ONLY one FIRST day of the month.

    1 samuel does not support a 2 day new moon day. Sure it may take the moon a span of 2 days to fully renew, but scripture says it is "new moon day", SINGULAR.
    1 samuel 20:34 does NOT say "the 2nd day of the feast" in the hebrew text. The word feast does not exist in the hebrew text of this verse, only in the adultered english translation.
    It says "on the 2nd day of the month". The word translated as month is chodesh. Which is often understood as renewal, renew, month.
    In the 2nd day of the month, the moon is still renewing its light, and its light still has not appeared, because new moon day originates at conjunction in darkness.
    The verse is simply telling us that it was the 2nd day of the months renewal of a new month. It NEVER calls it new moon day or a feast.
    This desire to ADD to scripture what is NOT actually said, just because of a lack of understanding, can never be accepted.
    Its always called new moon DAY, singular. No text anywhere justifies a 2nd day added to this feast.
