Shalom Everyone!
We are pleased to announce the release of our newest video teaching. In this video, we will tackle the ever so complicated question of intercalation.
Do we need to intercalate?
Why or why not?
Which method should be used?
In Yeshua Messiah,

2022 - 2023 Official Zadokite Calendar PDF
Zadok Way presents the 2022-2023 Zadokite Priestly Calendar. This calendar is a culmination from the contributions of scholars, theologians, and fellow laborers in Yeshua. Many, past and present, have contributed to the most extensive research of the Qumran Zadokite calendar to date. This is the expression of our combined work by the guidance of the set-apart Spirit. We continue to learn and apply the details of the calendar as we are guided into understanding by the Spirit.

Shalom, Question on Calendar Intercalation video.
Thank you for the Intercalation video. I really feel this is the best calendar and makes the most sense. Until now I could not understand how you handled the 365th +1/4 day. The intercalated week makes perfect sense. Question: How did you decide to intercalate in 2020 instead of 2019 as other teachings did? Does the start of the year have to be after the equinox or can it be the same day? What make the most biblical sense in your understanding?
Blessings and thanks for your teachings. Love your site.
With great respect to you all here at Zadok Way, Remnant House Ministries does not agree with the intercalation of a week to the calendar of YAH this year.
When you added a week to your calendar this year, you moved the new year beyond 4 days from the Equinox to begin on the 25th. We do not agree that the intercalation was to happen this year for this reason. It would appear an intercalation would be needed in 2022 but not until.
We would be happy to open discussion concerning intercalation for the sake of UNITY in the body of Messiah.
In the King’s Perfect Love,

Thank You so much for your explanation of intercalation. I’m always trying to find answers, maybe you can help. This is based on the Earth making a complete circuit around the Sun. The Word tells us in Genesis 1: 10 And “G*D” called the dry land Earth:… And in Genesis 1: 14 And “G*D” said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and seasons, and for days, and years.
Genesis implies that the Earth was created before the Sun and Moon. Can you please explain why the Word seems to imply the Sun is in circuit in the firmament above the Earth? Thank- You.
I trust God over man. And therefore take him at his word that the earth is fixed, it does not move, and the sun, moon, and stars were placed in the sky for the earth only–sobthatvwe have a calendar. It is Enoch who said By the stroke of one man’s pen can the entire world be deceived. Standardized education seeks to hide the Creator. I also have not found any place in creation that says the earth was suddenly launched into orbit around the sun. This is where sun worship became a thing, instead of worship of the image of God, Yeshua, the image in which all the sons of men were made! His throne is on the sides of the north (north star) where you will OBSERVE the accuser (draco) who stands and accuses us at the throne day and night. From my study of the chambers of the winds in enoch, it would appear that the earth is a circle set inside of a diamond where the ‘sides’ or ‘corners’ point in the 4 cardinal directions. All of this has something to do with Ezekiel’s wheel within a wheel as well. The lord throne is right there at the northstar and this wheel within a wheel is the circle he drew at the BOUNDARY between light and darkness. Everything surrounds earth. We are not in the heavens. He made the heavens above, AND the earth below, AND abyss under our feet. Shalom.
Would like to offer a few things to think about. I have like you, been trying to put all the pieces together in my mind, using texts and archaeology. What I can say is that though science has told us the exact timing of equinox, I like to remember that for 5000 years we didn’t have these tools and therefore man had to use observation only. This is why we have structures like the pyramids so that past civilizations could observe when the equinox actually occurred. According to Enoch, it is the day that we have equal parts: 12hour day/12 hour night. Now if u look up the history of the spring equinoxes and go to ‘hours of daylight’ you will find that the observable equinox, or the day that is exactly 12hours light/12 hours darkness, actually happens 4 days sooner than the astronomical date–around March 16th each year. Interesting! But there’s more.
I decided to go back in time, 100 years or so at a time. I believe in the 1750s, I think 1753, you will notice a sudden SHIFT in equinox dates. In ONE YEAR the equinox jumped backwards 10days, and is recorded prior to the 1750s as occurring around March 6th! What is going on here? Is this what we would call procession? I’m not sure. I offer it to you as research.
Lastly, the Lord keeps telling me that the festival of SHAVUOT has something to do with this calendar intercalation issue. After all he has predetermined according to daniel that 70 SHAVUOT will be determined upon thy people till all things be fulfilled. Have you found any connection to SHAVUOT and your intercalation of a week? Enoch does address intercalation at the last chapter concerning luminaries. He says something like an about an extra 5 days because of the OVERPLUS of the sun (365.25 days perhaps). Now keeping with the sabbath years–you don’t plant or harvest in a Sabbath year. So is it possible that you don’t intercalate until the 7th year, like hitting a refresh button? And then somehow SHAVUOT too is connected to the 7th year.
Also what about the part in Jubilees that says we are not to ‘reckon’ the season change days in the counting of the year? Not sure how that works but wondering if you might share your thoughts. The thing with always starting the year after the equinox is that passover must be celebrated on it’s fixed day in it’s season.
What I do know is that all of these answers should be observable in the heavens. Obviously the moon has 7 phases to match the 7 day creation and SABBATHS, and should also tell us the sabbatical year. We should be able to look up and know ‘oh it’s the sabbath, or oh it’s a feast day’s because the calendar is above our heads.
Anyway any knowledge is greatly appreciated. It’s so much to digest. I had passover 2020 as April 3rd- so I do my best to remain FLEXIBLE so Yeshua can keep teaching me. Funny thing is, I bet you one day it will all seem so simple.
