For the past one-and-a-half weeks, Sandi and I have been on a seven state road trip—our first real vacation in more than a year. We’ve been visiting family and sightseeing along the way. I’ll post some photos later. Anyway, we’ve been in and out of cell service and haven’t always been able to connect to the internet, and, in all honesty, I haven’t had my mind on this blog too much. But a couple days ago, I posted the dates for Passover, and got the calendar dates wrong, although the days of the week were correct. Someone called me today while we were in the Black Hills of South Dakota to inform me of the error. Thank you Mark! Now that I’m at our hotel and am able to connect to WiFi, I have correct the typos on my my previous blog post. Just to make sure that there’s no confusion, here are the dates again:
This year, 2022, Passover, based on the abib barley and the new moon in the land of Israel, will begin the evening of Saturday, April 16, with Passover day being on Sunday April 17. The first high day the Feast of Unleavened Bread will fall on Monday, April 18. Our family will be holding our seder at the end of the day on Sunday going into the evening of Monday.
My apologies for the confusion.
Blessings and more blessings to everyone in Yeshua the Messiah!
Could you please confirm your dates. You will have to forgive me if I do not fully understand the calendar that you are observing as I am relatively new to your web site and blog.
FYI and FWIW….I received the report from Devorah that the new moon was not seen on Saturday evening because it was cloudy…therefore the first of the month is Sunday evening. Perhaps there is another source for the new moon sighting? Or perhaps you observe the Passover another day, etc.?
Our dates are confirmed. They also agree with Devorah. We are not aware of any other sources in Israel that saw the new moon at the end of the 29th day. We didn’t put out our info until we were certain about this. Don’t know what more I can say. Blessings.
