When the earth was finished it brought forth
its first fruit -- The day. The first complete
day was the seventh day of creation and the Sabbath began the
world as we know it. These seven days were to be considered a
measurement of time forever -- A
week . The week is the last vestigial element of
Jehovah's calendar that continues to the time in which we
live. The measurement of the day has been polluted. The
measurements of months and years have been polluted. However,
the week is the last measurement of time that has remained,
and try as one might to find a historical rationale for doing
so, there is no reason to measure days in this arbitrary
fashion other than the record of Scripture that the week is,
indeed, seven days long.
As children of
Jehovah we should make ourselves familiar with His
calendar. He has left us with the Scriptures
to calculate and identify His moedim. (His appointed times,
seasons.) If they were not important, or left to the
discretion or arbitrary alteration of man, He would not have
so clearly outlined their demarcation in His holy
Scriptures. He told us when a day starts - when a day
ends - when the months start and when the beginning of years
are to be marked. We have compiled this Biblical information
into a printable calendar -- the Sacred Biblical
Calendar
