The calendar dispute goes back at least 2000 years, as we see the dispute in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
The top 3 calendars are:
Hillel II - The calendar of rabbinical Judaism and different groups of believers.
Zadok - The calendar of the Essenes and different groups of believers.
Aviv - Observed by Karaite Jews and different groups of believers.
In my opinion, there's no way to validate the calendar that GOD uses. But I also believe God understands our sincere desire to follow is commandments, and He has enough grace for if we make a mistake.
My recommendation:
Observe the calendar that your local group feels comfortable with.
But you need to be aware of ALL of the calendar Feast days. At a certain point, prophetic events will begin to happen and I believe they will happen on the calendar GOD uses. Therefore, watch and see what lines up. Then you'll know which calendar He has revealed.

If we believe and understand that Messiah Yeshua died in 30 C.E., and we believe that Yeshua died on a Wednesday then all one has to do is see what the sun, moon, and stars did during the month of Passover to determine what calendar Yeshua followed.

The Hillel II calendar didn't exist at that time, so the Sadducees and Temple priesthood would have used a variant of Aviv.
However, the Essenes would have been observing a different calendar at that time.
Some say that Yeshua observed both. As the last supper would have been a sedar meal on one calendar, while the rest of Judaism observed the sedar the next evening after His death on the cross.
I'm not arguing one calendar over the other.. but just throwing this possibility out there.

By what you have said above what Jewish holiday starts soon and when? People says Rosh Hashanah is today? Isn’t it feast of tabernacles or the day of trumpets then the day of atonement? I am just trying to get wht is the real feasts and not the man made ones. Are these correct? Attachments:

Devorah's Date Tree (Judges 4:4-5) provides first-hand New Moon Observations and Barley Inspection Reports from the Land of Israel. It is headed by Devorah Gordon, who has been living in Israel, and working on restoring the Biblical Calendar, for over 25 years.
Yesterday, she wrote:
"We just got back from looking for the New Moon on 3 October 2024, and at the time of this writing, we aren’t aware of any positive naked eye sightings from this evening’s observation. It takes an average of 29.53 days for the moon to complete its lunation (from our perspective on Earth), which means that a lunar month is either 29 or 30 days. Therefore, when we don’t see the moon at the end of the 29th day, we know to begin the Biblical Month at the end of the 30th day. [This may explain how David knew the following day would be Rosh Chodesh (New Moon Day) (Samuel A20:5).] As this was the end of the 29th day, if you don’t receive an update from us that a positive report come in later, then tomorrow (4 October) evening will be the beginning of the Biblical Month. If no positive reports come in, we’ll plan to go out again tomorrow evening to witness the New Moon, and share that report with you following the observation. For those that asked, it’s our understanding, that the Biblical Calendar is to be set according to the signs (Gen 1:14) in Israel (Dt 6:1, Dt 11:8-9, Dt 30:11-14). Therefore, if one is currently living abroad, it’s generally recommended to use Israel as an International Date Line. In other words, once the New Moon is sighted in Israel, they would begin the Biblical Month when evening starts in their part of the world (the Biblical Month must always begin in Israel first). Remember, although we’re told to keep the commandments wherever we may live, the moadim (appointed times) are set holy days (Lev 23:4), based on the timings in The Land."  |
