Rosh Chodesh Sameach! (Happy New Month!)

April 6, 2024
Today is the 7th day of the 1st week of seven weeks. Today is the 7th day of the counting of fifty days from the day of the waving of the Omer on the morrow after the Sabbath.

Sunday, March 31, 2024, was יוֹם הֲנָפַת הָעֹמֶר Yom Hanafat Ha'omer (Day of the Waving of the Sheaf). When the Temple stood this day marked the official commencement of the grain harvest (Deuteronomy 16:7) and sheaves of barley were cut and brought to the Temple as a wave-offering (Leviticus 23:9-14). This day also marked the beginning of the 50-day count to חַג הַשּׁבֻעוֹת Shavuot (Pentecost; Feast of Weeks). Yom Hanafat Ha'omer was counted as Day 1 and Shavuot will be Day 50.

Happy New Year!

We are grateful again for your standing in the gap with us and lifting the biblical calendar before our good and gracious Heavenly Father and looking for His decision on when we should start the new year. I want to acknowledge your faithfulness in praying and lifting this process up before Him and that He hears our prayers and gives guidance.

Many have gone out with considerable cost and concerns for safety in the land of Israel to share with us their findings on the aviv in accordance with Yehovah’s calendar. We are very blessed to have them and the ability to see their findings firsthand at this time in history while on the other side of the world.

I have written a blog post about the Biblical criteria we used to determine if there was enough Aviv barley to determine a new year. You can read that here: https://solelsabbathfellowship.com/our-decision-on-aviv-2024

After determining the Biblical criteria we would follow in interpreting the testimonies, we noted that each of the five groups of searchers found aviv in the land in a variety of fields. One particular field, which was aviv, was in the exact area where Joshua and the people would have come into the land to eat their first Passover and begin harvesting the grain of the land to eat! That fulfills the two or three witnesses. Three of the five groups have declared the time to be aviv with a fourth stating this morning that he also found enough aviv to make an omer to fulfill that requirement for First Fruits in a few weeks.

We also received news that the new moon was seen in Israel a few hours ago, making tonight the beginning of a new month.

With the statements of these witnesses, Solel will be celebrating the Passover and Unleavened Bread this month and not be waiting for another month.

Thank you all again for your prayers as we look forward to celebrating the feasts of Yehovah together. Shalom and may we be blessed as we prepare ourselves to honor the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread.
