Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
The calendar used by most of the Churches of God is the calendar created by the Jewish Sanhedrin's leader, Hillel II after 320AD. In his effort to create a calendar for all times, he used the metonic cycle which was a discovery by Greek astronomer Meton. This 19 year cycle allowed using a repeating cycle of leap years and the start of the new year would be determined by this cycle. There are many things that the Jews changed from the calendar that they used during the time that Christ lived. They included a process called postponements that are designed to move the Day of Atonement from being next to the weekly Sabbath. If one studies the Jewish calendar they will find these errors and more. Our purpose in this study was to go through scripture and make a calendar that will be based on scripture. A calendar that anyone can do and teach their children. A calendar that doesn't rely on another person, religious group or corporate organization.

2 Samuel 22:2-4,31 NKJV
And he (King David) said: Yehovah is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;
The God (Elohiym) of my strength, in whom I will TRUST; my shield and the horn (strength) of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge; my Savior, You save me from violence.
I will call upon Yehovah, who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies.
As for God (EL), His way is perfect; the word of Yehovah is proven; He is a shield to all who TRUST Him.
