Sunset Apr 8 through sunset Apr 9, 2016

1st day of the 1st moon, in SPRING of the new year.

Scripture has only summer & winter  -  spring = summer.

Memorial of Yahusha’s death

Sunset APR 21:  beginning of 14th day of 1st moon

APR 22 IS A “PREPARATION DAY” FOR THE FIRST DAY OF MATSAH 

Yahusha was impaled later during the daylight part of

the 14th of the first moon. He observed a Memorial with His talmidim the evening before at the arrival of the 14th. Passover is not a when, but a Who.  

YAHUSHA IS OUR PASSOVER, ONE OFFERING FOR ALL

PESACH   when they ate the Passover

Nearing sunset APR 22:  “On the14th day of  the 1st moon, between the evenings, is the Passover to Yahuah.”  Lev. 23:5  Our Passover died late on the 14th of the first moon.

MATSAH   Unleavened Bread For 7 Days

REST FROM WORK ON FIRST AND LAST DAYS

FIRST DAY:  FULL MOON & REST FROM WORK:

Sunset APR 22  -  sunset APR 23 “On the15th day of this month is the festival of Matsah to Yahuah  -  seven days you eat unleavened bread.”  Lev 23:6

THIS SHADOW-PICTURE DEPICTS CLEANING OUT THE “LEAVEN” (MEN’S TEACHINGS) FROM OUR HEARTS, PREPARING US TO RECEIVE THE “GOOD SEED” OF TORAH, 50 DAYS LATER AT SHABUOTH.

COMMEMORATES OUR DELIVERANCE FROM EGYPTIAN SLAVERY AND JUDGMENT OF ALL FIRST-BORN MALES OF MEN & ANIMALS.

The Passover was eaten on this night, the beginning of the 15th of the 1st moon, a night of vigil for the slaying of the first-born, and the great deliverance of Yisharal from Mitsrayim from the land of slavery.

For 7 days, all Yisharal is to abstain from leavened bread. This applies to all immersed believers.

FIRST-FRUITS  - SHADOW OF THE RESURRECTION

APR 24  -  On the morrow after the weekly Shabath during Matsah, Yahusha ascended to present

Himself as First-fruits around 9am.

The Wave-sheaf offering is traditionally

always on Abib 16, and this year it works out. The count to Shabuoth (7 x 7 complete weeks) is determined by getting this correct. This offering, called the first-fruits, was fulfilled by Yahusha when He resurrected. During the festival of Matsah (Unleavened Bread), the High Priest would wave”the first-fruits of the barley harvest on the “morrow after the Shabath”. Yahusha became the wave-sheaf offering because the resurrection was the object, and the wave-sheaf was the shadow.

7th day of Matsah: 21st day of 1st moon

Sunset APR 28  -  sunset APR 29

(REST DAY)

LAST DAY OF MATSAH COMMEMORATES THE PASSING THROUGH WATER OF ISRAEL AND THE DROWNING OF THE ARMIES OF PHARAOH. READ SONG OF MOSHEH (EX. 15) 

SHABUOTH (Hebrew, weeks) 50th day (REST DAY)

Sunset June 11 - sunset June 12, 2016

Shabuoth commemorates the giving of Torah at Sinai, the wedding anniversary for

Yahuah and Yisharal. Ten Commandments is read. The Covenant is our marriage.

From the morrow after the weekly Sabbath during Matsah, we count 7 intact, true weeks to the morrow after the 7th Sabbath, the

morrow being the 50th day, always falling on the 1st day of a week.

THE YAHUDIM CALCULATE FROM ABIB 16 IN THEIR COUNT TO SHABUOTH, YET WE KNOW YAHUSHA WAS IN THE TOMB ON ABIB 16, AND HAD NOT YET RESURRECTED AS FIRST-FRUITS (WAVE SHEAF), but this year Abib 16 is First-fruits.

TRADITIONALLY CALLED “PENTECOST” -GREEK FOR “COUNT 50.” FULFILLED AS RECORDED AT ACTS 2 WHEN TORAH WAS WRITTEN ON THE HEARTS OF NATSARIM, RENEWING THE COVENANT, RESTORING US TO FAVOR WITH YAHUAH THROUGH THE INDWELLING OF YAHUSHA’S SPIRIT.

IT IS NOT A BIRTHDAY, IT IS A WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.

 —  SEE JER 31:32

UNFULFILLED SHADOWS AHEAD:

Yom Teruah (REST DAY) 1st day of 7th moon:

Sunset Oct 2 through sunset Oct 3

YOM TERUAH (DAY OF SHOUT) - WE HEAR A SHOFAR BLOWN, SHADOW OF THE LAST TRUMP: THE COMING DAY OF THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD WHEN THE VOICE OF A GREAT MESSENGER WILL SHOUT LIKE A TRUMPET.

THIS IS THE FINAL WARNING OF THE COMING HARVEST OF THE EARTH BY THE REAPERS DESCRIBED AT YUAL 2 , MT. 24, AND PSALM 91.

Yom Kafar (REST DAY) 10th day of 7th moon:

Sunset Oct 11 through sunset Oct 12

YOM KAFAR, DAY OF COVERING. ACTS 17, PS 91 & YUAL 2. FORESHADOWS THE “DAY OF YAHUAH” - THOSE SEALED WITH THE NAME OF YAHUAH ARE REDEEMED, LISTED IN THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE (MAL 3:16). THIS IS THE REDEMPTION OF THE LIVING THAT FOLLOWS THE RAISING OF THE DEAD. THE FIRST-FRUITS WHO ARE ALIVE AT HIS RETURN WILL BE CHANGED IN THE WINK OF AN EYE, CLOTHED WITH NEW IMMORTAL BODIES.

 AND OUR WEDDING AT HIS RETURN

Sukkoth (REST DAY) 15th day of 7th moon:

LEV 23:33:  TENTS OR BOOTHS - REMINDS US OF ISRAEL LIVING IN TENTS 40 YEARS, BUT LOOKS FORWARD TO THE CONSUMMATION OF THE WEDDING FEAST AT THE RETURN OF YAHUSHA HA’MASHIACH ON THE DAY OF YAHUAH, FOLLOWING THE GREAT TRIBULATION AND JUDGMENT OF THE UNRIGHTEOUS.  YAHUSHA WAS BORN ON THE FIRST DAY OF SUKKOTH, IN A TEMPORARY DWELLING.

Closing day of festival  (REST DAY) LEV 23:36

22nd day of 7th moon:  Last Great Day

YAHUSHA WAS CIRCUMCISED ON THE EIGHTH DAY AFTER HIS BIRTH, AND THIS EIGHTH DAY LOOKS FORWARD TO A RE-NEWED CREATION WHERE RIGHTEOUSNESS DWELLS.

ALL HEARTS WILL BE CIRCUMCISED WITH A LOVE FOR TORAH.

"Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a festival, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days which are a shadow of things to come for the body of Mashiak."

Col 2:16-17 — See also Is 8:20

  Some follow new calendars  - Enochian, Creation, and “corrected” interpretations involving ‘sighted moons’ (Karaite-influenced).

To unite with the older brother we trust they know how weeks and festivals work, since there’s been no change since Yahusha walked among us.

WE DISTRIBUTE ORTHODOX HEBREW CALENDARS

Hebrew calendars from Torah Institute contain the true 7-day weeks, and are produced by Orthodox “rabbis.” Being designed by fallible men, these calendars will use certain inappropriate words such as the name of the month “Tammuz.” 

Because they don’t recognize the “sign of Yunah” they consistently calculate the count to Shabuoth from Abib 16, rather than the Sabbath during the week of Matsah.
