Enoch's Calendar

[Gibs]

The Calendar Given to Enoch

Book - Secrets of Enoch Chap. 16:

They took Enoch and again placed him in the east at the course of the moon.

1 Those men showed me the other course, that of the moon, twelve great gates, crowned from west to east, by which the moon goes in and out of the customary times.

( The “gates”, the 12 divisions of the year that the moon goes in and out of. )

2 It goes in at the first gate to the western places of the sun, by the first gates with thirty one days exactly, by the second gates with thirty one exactly, by the third with thirty days exactly, by the fourth with thirty days exactly, by the fifth with thirty one days exactly, by the sixth with thirty one days exactly, by the seventh with thirty days exactly, by the eighth with thirty one days exactly, by the ninth with thirty one days exactly, by the tenth with thirty days perfectly, by the eleventh with thirty one days exactly, by the twelfth with twenty eight days exactly.

3 And it goes through the western gates in the order and number of the eastern, and accomplishes the three hundred and sixty five and a quarter days of the solar year, while the lunar year has three hundred fifty four, and there are wanting to it twelve days of the solar circle. Which are the lunar epacts of the whole year.

( “epacts” are days added to harmonize the lunar with the solar calendar )

( Notice the moon, lunar looses 12 days in the year from the solar. Our 12 divisions shouldn’t be called months as that word means “moonths” and our divisions are solar in length as laid out by Enoch. )

4 Thus, too , the great circle contains five hundred and thirty two years.

5 The quarter of a day is omitted for three years, the fourth fulfills it exactly.

6 Therefore they are taken outside of heaven for three years and are not added to the number of days, because they change the time of the years to two new months towards completion, to two others diminution.

7 And when the western gates are finished, it returns and goes to the eastern to the lights, and goes thus day and night about the heavenly circles, lower than all circles, swifter than the heavenly winds. And spirits and elements and angels flying, each angel has six wings.

8 It has a sevenfold course in nineteen years.

Enochs Calendar started the first division at the spring equinox and the last division was 28 solar days. Our calendar has the same length divisions but starts the year in a different place and places the shortest division the second division. So you see our calendar is correct with Enoch except for some changing around the divisions or gates.

Also our 12 divisions rightfully shouldn’t be named months as months is “moonths. And a moon cycle is shorter than all our 11 divisions except for the one.

1Jo 4:4 ¶ Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
