Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
YHVH created the sun and the moon and set them in the heavens, in part, to show when to observe His Festivals. The date listed on this calendar for the start of the 1st month and the 7th month is based on the first projected sighting, after sunset, of the renewing of the light of the moon.
Ephesians 2:1-3 NLT
Once you (we) were dead because of your (our) disobedience, and your (our) many sins.
You used to live in sin just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil-that commander of the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God.
All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God's anger, just like everyone else.
