Hello John and Doves,
Here are two more possible dates for
the Feast of New Wine/Acts Pentecost:
Zadokite
Priestly Calendar:
The Zadok Way website uses the the Zadokite Calendar which is based
on Biblical references, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the book of
Jubilees and the book of Enoch.
The Feast of New Wine is on the 3rd day
of the fifth month. This is "an eternal statute, from
generation to generation...They shall rejoice this day in
the festival of new wine."
In Matthew 9:17, Jesus tells us
"Neither do they put new wine into old wineskins or else
the wineskins burst and the wine is spilled, and the
wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into
fresh wineskins and both are preserved."
'What Yeshua is conveying in this
parable is that the old skin or your old sinful ways
cannot contain the inheritance and blessings to
come. But through repentance and belief, the old is
thrown off and He provides a new skin ready to handle the
convenantal blessings He wants to pour into us."
"This feast is about offering Yahweh
the new new harvest...and adopting a new skin before the
blessings of New Wine can be poured inside."

This link is to the Zadokite Priestly
Calendar - a calendar that is the "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."
The 3rd day of the fifth month is Feast
of New Wine - July 21, 2024. The
50th day count. The full moon is July 19 on the
Zadok calendat.. "..the Zadok calendar...it
perfectly divisible by seven, it uses both the sun and the
moon as witnesses and it is in line with the priestly
order that is laid out in 1 Chronicles 24."
The Zadok Way website believes that this calendar is "as
close as we can get to the calendar that the ancient
Hebrews were keeping prior to the captivity."

Luis
Vega's Count:
Luis Vega covers this topic in much
detail and great depth - lots of study has been put into
this topic over many, many years..
These two 'counts' are very
close. July 21 is a Sunday. July 23 is a
Tuesday.
The
Third Day of the Fifth Month is 3 Av - Based on the New
Moon, What Day Is That?
It will probably be sighted on July 7
or 8. Let's say July 7 is Day 1. So
the third day of the fifth month is July 9. Tishah
B'Av, or 9th of Av is July 15
If the Fifth Month starts in
August: The new moon of August is on August 4 in
Jerusalem. (same link as above) at 2:13 PM. So the
first day of the month could be August 5. So the third day
of the fifth month would be August 7. Tishah B'Av is
August 13. (This day matches up with Dr. Awe's date
for Feast of New Wine/9th of Av - see my other Doves
letter today: "Another Look At Some Of The Feasts Of
The Lord...." and he counted to this day using the
Dead Sea Scroll count and Leviticus 23 count.
Just more possible dates for Feast of
New Wine and Acts Pentecost.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!
Maranatha!
