Purim Purim 3/14 to 16th of 2025
Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present
your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto YaH, which is your reasonable
service. (Some say "I only keep the Sabbath and the Feast Days, not Purim.")
Lukas 11:42 But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of
herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of YaH: these ought ye to have done, and not
to leave the other undone.
Esther 7:1 So the king and Haman came to banquet with Esther the queen.
:2 And the king said again unto Esther on the second day at the banquet of wine, What is
thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee: and what is thy request? and it
shall be performed, even to the half of the kingdom.
:3 Then Esther the queen answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, O king,
and if it please the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my
request:
:4 For we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if
we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the enemy
could not countervail the king's damage.
:5 Then the king Ahasuerus answered and said unto Esther the queen, Who is he, and where
is he, that durst presume in his heart to do so?
:6 And Esther said, The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid
before the king and the queen.
:10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the
king's wrath pacified.
Let us get the wicked Hamans out of our Nation, churches and homes in YaHOSHA MESSIAH.
The instructions of YaHVaH are above all that for those willing to obey
the Governor of all the Universe.
Rev 3:8 I know thy works (commandments...)
Keeping the FEASTS. Start with Passover in Vy./Leviticus 23 If you desire, go to Feast
NOT Ceremonial law, but Sacrificial law.
2 Chronicles 7:14 "If My people will humble selves.." Yah will pluck those up by the
roots who forsake His Statutes and Commandments
Equinox is on 3/17 not 3/20. 3/20 was by edict of Constantine to distance us from the Hebrew calendar.
was made by Constantine at his
infamous Council of Nicea in 325 A.D.?
Notably, one reason the date of March 20-21 was set as the Vernal Equinox by this papal
council was to prevent Passover and Easter from ever falling on the same day (which some
year, it does, using the March 17 Tekufah)!
“In 325 (A.D.) the Council of Nicaea established that Easter would be held on the first
Sunday after the first full moon occurring on or after the Vernal Equinox. From that
point forward, the Easter date depended on the ecclesiastical approximation of March 21
for the Vernal Equinox.
Easter is delayed by 1 week if the full moon is on Sunday, which
decreases the chances of it falling on the same day as the Jewish
Passover. The council’s ruling is
contrary to the Quartodecimans (14th day keepers—a term which referred to people keeping
the 14th day, which is Passover), a group of Christians who celebrated
(Passover) on the day of the full moon, 14 days into the month.”

Most years, the Biblical calendar isn’t effected by mistakenly using the March 20-21 date
as the Tekufah. This is because the next Biblical year doesn’t begin until the first new
moon following the Tekufah. But sometimes (as happens this year), there is a new moon
that falls between March 17 and March 21. For example, this year there is a new moon on
March 19 (the sighting is the eve of March 18), placing that new moon
between March 17 and 21. This has
created some discrepancy between Lighted Way Ministries’ 2018 Biblical
Calendar and some others.
Because we understand March 17 to be the true Tekufah, we count the New (renewed)
Moon.With the corrected date of the Tekufah and a right understanding of how to calculate
the New Moons, Torah-keepers are well-equipped to construct an
accurate Biblical calendar, according to Leviticus 23 and the Creator’s original plan.
