Calendation Practicum
1
To create a monthly/yearly calendar based on the biblical luni-solar calendation:
(1) With data on the vernal equinox the lunar conjunction nearest the equinox
is needed to fix beginning of Abib, 1st month of the year. However, when this
conjunction is the one before the equinox, it is not acceptable if it brings the
Passover before the equinox. (e.g. 2016 & 2019 – see below).
(2) the conjunction is on the last day of the lunar month and it is followed by
the New-Moon day (=1st day of the lunar month) which falls on the Gregorian
date which follow the dawn [i.e. sunrise] after the conjunction using the
biblical calendar (with sunrise-to-sunrise day reckoning). It is on the same
Gregorian day of the conjunction if the conjunction is from 12 a.m. to dawn; it
is on the next day if it occurs after dawn. [Note: Date/time of the conjunction
and the sunrise time are location dependent.]
The monthly calendar will show whether the month ends with 29th or 30th
(transitional day).
Leap year with intercalary 13th month: In the rabbinic Jewish calendar the
leap years are 2011, 2014, 2016; 2019; 2022.
See in the file <Walk through the Scripture #5 - Time, Calendar and
Chronology>.

Determining the New-Moon day of a month
At [luni-solar] conjunction ('astronomical new moon') a new moon begins to rebuild – a
new month is to be coming. The conjunction is located in the last day (from sunrise-to-
sunrise) of the lunar month (be it 29th or 30tha).
The first day of a new month – 'New-Moon Day' – begins on the first dawn after
conjunction [www.worldslastchance.com/yahuwahs-calendar] (here 'dawn' mean 'sunrise')
– the "dawn after conjunction" method.
To find the New-Moon day on Gregorian date is a matter of finding what day is for the
dawn that which comes after the conjunction.
Data needed for determining the (Gregorian) date of the New Moon day of the month
→ date & time of conjunction & sunrise → Yerusalem time (location dependent!)
In contrast, the traditional sighting of the (visible) first crescent as was practiced in the
ancient Israel is simply impractical.b
a
Q: transitional day 30 – what months does it occur in the biblical calendar?
b Watch for a new crescent begin on 29th of the lunar month on their calendar. But if observation
(who) is reported (to whom) and verified and announce (to whom), the next day (on their
calendar?) is first day of the lunar month (New-Moon day) (but on what Gregorian day?). If it is
not seen on the evening of 29th, then a 30th day is added to that month and the next day after 30th
day is the first day of the new lunar month (= New Moon Day for that new month). Here there is
also a problem of overlaying the date of the lunar month onto the Gregorian date.
By the very nature and definition, the dark moon itself is to be in the last day (29th or 30th) of the
lunar month. Q: How are the moon rise and moon set times related to visibility of the first crescent
moon?

Determining the first month of the new year
The New Year is reckoned by the New Moon closest to the vernal equinox, which will place
the Passover (with the full moon) after the equinox.
Data needed for determining the (Gregorian) date of the New Moon day of the first month of
the lunar year, that is, the date of Abib 1:
(1) the vernal equinox date and time (location independent)
(2) the conjunction time and the sunrise time (location dependent).
Time and date are location-dependent – Data for Jerusalem should be used.

Year 2019* – After Adar II; Equinox -- Mar 20 (21:58 UTC) – is the problematic case. Conjunction
closest to Equinox is Mar 6 (15 days from conjunction Mar 6 to equinox), compared to the next on
Apr 5 (16 days from Equinox Mar 20 to the conjunction Apr 5). The difference is only one day.
However, if earlier conjunction is chosen, it would bring the Passover on Mar 20, the day of the
Equinox. The Passover cannot come before the equinox. So, the right choice would be April Passover
(same in the rabbinic Jewish calendar) Then, the preceding month must be 13th month in the Biblical
calendar.
Year 2016** – Here March conjunction IS closer to the Equinox. From the conjunction of Mar 9 to
the March 20 of Equinox (which is earliest spring equinox since 1896) is 11 days vs. from the Equinox
March 20 to the next conjunction Apr 7 is 17 days with quite large difference of 6 days. However, if
the closer conjunction is chosen, it would bring the Passover only 2 days past the equinox. Is it
acceptable? On the other hand, when the Apr conjunction is chosen, Abib 1 on Apr 8 approximates
Nisan 1 on Apr 9 (with Nisan 14 on Apr 22) (Nisan date come a day later – see $ below). [Full moon
Mar 23; Apr 22]
$ - -Abib 1 = Nisan 1 and Abib 14 = Nisan 14 for the Gregorian date. Here why some months have
discrepancy between the date of Abib 1st and Nisan 1st by one day (even though they have the first
month of year at the same Gregorian month). ? Problem of incorrect reckoning of Nisan 1 - How so?
Q: Does when abib of barley observed in Israel fit for the Passover dating when the calculated date of
Passover is after, but very closer to, the Equinox?

The Jewish calendar has the preceding month as Adar II. Nisan 1 & 15 are in Apr not in
March.
Here, the conjunction (Apr 7) which comes after the equinox is taken for beginning of the
1st month. Apr 8 is for Abib 1. In the Jewish calendar, Nisan 1 is on Apr 9. Likewise,
Nisan 14 (ereb pesach) is on Apr 22, instead of Apr 21 for Abib 14 (Passover day).
