'Abyb - Yahowah's New Year


Yahowah's true "Head of the Year" is in 'Abyb!

"The Doorway to Life and the Entrance to Heaven may be Pesach | Passover, but the gateway to God remains being shamar | observant. It is by “shamar – closely examining and carefully considering” Yahowah’s testimony that we come to know and understand how “‘asah – to act to engage in and profit from” the Mow’ed.

Based upon this statement, Yahowah is asking us to notice that there is something special about ‘Abyb which pertains to Pesach. It is a “chodesh – time of renewal.” The reflected light from the moon’s surface is “chadash – renewing and growing.” Come ‘Abyb, the retreat of life into the chill of winter is over as we witness spring’s renewal and growth. During ‘Abyb, barley is developing but not yet fully formed, such that the maturing kernel is still receptive to light, water, and nourishment. This is the moment in the cycle of life before the grain, which is indicative of saved souls, becomes hard and shriveled in the head, and thus unreceptive. Pesach occurs in ‘Abyb for all of these reasons – each of which Yahowah wanted us to appreciate.

We are, therefore, being encouraged to act upon Yahowah’s offer while we are young, when our minds are malleable, and we are growing and receptive. While there are notable exceptions, when we grow old, we typically become more set in our ways and are less willing to change.
This statement also serves to tie Yahowah’s liberation of the Children of Yisra’el together with Passover, affirming that we are called to carefully observe the connections which God has made. There is no other way to know or approach Yahowah. It is the best way to understand His offer and provision.

God “yatsa’ – descended, extending Himself, to bring His people out” of Mitsraym | the Crucibles of Political and Religious Oppression | Egypt. Rather than embrace the politics and religion of man, Yahowah delivered the Children of Yisra’el from “Mitsraym – the cauldrons of cruel persecution where the people were confined and restricted by military and economic institutions.” Mitsraym is the plural of “matsowr – to be delineated as a foe and besieged during a time of testing and tribulation.” It in turn is from “tsuwr – to be bound and confined by an adversary, besieged, assaulted, shut up, and enclosed in the likes of a concentration camp by those showing great hostility.” There was no place on Earth more political or religious, and yet, it was from this “laylah – darkness” that God rescued His people. Therefore, He did not want them to be under the influence of either institution." Yada Yah Vol. 4 Invitations, Ch. 4 Heaven's Gate

"Sadly, Jews have made a religious mess of Yahowah’s Invitations to Meet. With only an inedible bone tossed upon a plate of vegetables, the Seder has made a mockery of Pesach | Passover and actually mimics Qayn’s | Cain’s rejected offering. Chag Matsah | UnYeasted Bread has been relegated to a missing ingredient and is, therefore, no longer celebrated. Bikuwrym has become an agricultural holiday. Shabuw’ah is largely ignored to avoid any association with Pentecost. And Taruw’ah was replaced with Rosh Hashanah. Then the purpose of Kipurym was inverted. Instead of reconciling their relationship with Yahowah, religious Jews torture and slaughter chickens. Even Sukah has been corrupted, as it is observed by overpaying rabbis for the “Four Holy Species,” including the ugliest, most overpriced, and bitter of useless fruit – the Etrog." Intro To God Vol. 3, Ch. 4


"The rabbinical year begins with Rosh Hashanah, the celebration of the Babylonian New Year. It replaces Yowm Taruw’ah. “Yom Kippur” is observed at the right time but in the wrong way. It has become a fast to afflict one’s soul. “Sukkot” is rapidly fading in popularity and now has little in common with Yahowah’s instructions. The rabbinical holidays of Shemini Atzeret (8th day of Sukah), Simchat Torah (renewal of the annual reading schedule), and Hanukkah (the Festival of Lights is increasing in popularity) follow. Purim has become the preferred holiday among religious Jews. It commemorates events presented in the Book of Esther, which is a fanciful tale without a hint of Divine inspiration. It is observed in the spring, a month prior to Passover (4/4 in 2023)." Yada Yahowah Vol. 4 Invitations, Ch 6


"The Miqra’ey are not to be replaced by ceremonies and rituals conceived by man. Those who observe Easter and Christmas, Rosh Hashanah and Hanukkah, All-Hallow’s Eve and St. Valentine’s Day, Ashura Day and Ramadan, the Solstice or May Day, or any other manmade poligious (political/religious) scheme contribute to the deception and add to the fog which separates mankind from God." Yada Yahowah Vol. 5, Ch 1


A new year begins on the 1st of ‘Abyb, in the Spring, not when the Babylonians observed Rosh Hashanah.
