Some people and church groups that keep the Holy Days of God are convinced that the Hebrew Calendar is defective. They claim that its rules for calculating the feast days of God are not based on Scripture but on Jewish tradition. They are adamantly OPPOSED to the rules of postponement used in the Hebrew Calendar, which they view as an invention of men. In denouncing these rules, they assert that the "postponement" of the new moon of the seventh month (Tishri) was instituted by the Jews for political or physical convenience. Is the calculated Hebrew Calendar really BROKEN as some teach? How can we know the truth? Is the calculated Hebrew Calendar in complete HARMONY with the astronomical cycles that God has ordained, and does it fulfill EVERY Scriptural requirement for determining His appointed times? Written by Carl D. Franklin, an excellent series of research papers examines some of the basic Scriptural principles that govern all determinations of time. Questions answered in this in-depth series include: What CALENDAR did Jesus and his disciples use to keep God's Holy Days such as Passover and Pentecost? What YEAR did Jesus die? Did he die in 30 or 31 A.D.? Was Jesus crucified on a WEDNESDAY or FRIDAY? Was Jesus DEAD for three days AND three nights? What is the Quartodeciman Controversy and what did APOSTLE PAUL do about it? How are God's annual Feast days determined? Is the Hebrew Calendar DEFECTIVE? Are the calendar rules used for God's Feast days based on JEWISH TRADITION?
