Biblical Calendar of Israel

 

Join people from all over the world who are beginning to observe the ancient Biblical calendar, the one used in Israel during the time of the Tenach (Old Testament) and also during the time of Messiah. To the best of our research, this is the most accurate Biblical calendar available.  (For background material on this calendar or to compute the calendar yourself, download our shareware program Moon.exe.)

Many Messianic Jewish believers are under the impression that the modern Rabbinical calendar is the same as the Biblical calendar. Unfortunately, this is not the case. It is true that the modern Rabbinical calendar is very close to the true Biblical calendar, but since the two calendars are calculated using entirely different methods, minor and major variations do exist. Why is this important? Yahweh has commanded us to follow His feasts according to His calendar, not a calendar that merely approximates His calendar. The modern Rabbincal calendar rarely has feast days at the same time as the Biblical calendar, thereby leading consciencious followers of Yayshua to observe days that have not been Divinely ordained and neglecting days that have been Divinely ordained.

For those whose hearts are truly set on following in the steps of our Messiah, what better time to celebrate the feasts and holy days than the same times He observed them while He was here?

(If you are wondering why the year is 6139 instead of 5759 as most Jewish calendars show, see our Biblical Chronology by Daniel Gregg. For a list of feast days through 2035, see Feasts.)

The Moon.exe program calculates Biblical Feast days, New Moons, and other useful data in determining the Ancient Biblical calendar. There are helps and notes included in the program. (Note: Requires Microsoft Windows or DOS operating system. Sorry, no Macintosh.)
