Define
New Moon- It is a must to know when the
New Moon or month begins, and to know this we must
define the words New Moon. Is it when the light
goes out and new light begins, like a beacon? Does
it have to be seen? Or does it have to be there?
Does New Moon mean to rebuild? At what point does
it start to rebuild? At conjunction or 1st visible
sliver? Could David have seen the 1st sliver when
he said tomorrow is the New Moon. I will wait here
until the 3rd day--- and on the 2nd day of the New
Moon his place was empty? Could he have seen a sliver
on the second day? If the answer is no light seen
1st day, but light seen 2nd day, and both days called
New Moon days then the definition of New Moon can’t
possibly be rebuilt light that can be seen. The
Scriptures doesn’t teach this; neither does
the example here support this teaching. This example
does support the moment after conjunction as New
Moon or rebuilding of the light whether seen or
not, and in this case was not seen, and called New
Moon so definition of New Moon is obviously rebuilding
or moment after conjunction.
Moses
was told by YHWH to rear up the tabernacle
on the 1st day of the 1st Moon Ex. 40:1 Now is the
rebuilding of a new month starts at 3:00 p.m. moment
after conjunction, (or old Moon gone), and day begins
at even, wouldn’t the 1st even of that rebuilding
or New Moon begin at dark? Wouldn’t this be
the 1st day of the rebuilding that Moses would rear
up the tabernacle? Wouldn’t the Sabbath be
seven days from here being this is the 1st full
day after the rebuilding? When does the rebuilding
start? After old Moon gone, or when you can see
the 1st sliver? Now if in Samuel when David said
tomorrow is the New Moon was after day had started,
say at 10:00 am then he could still say tomorrow
is the rebuilding--- and wait till 3rd day because
to keep the 1st day of the rebuilding, he would
have to wait till the next day at even to have a
full day, and the 3rd day would be the 1st full
day of the New Moon, but the day before was when
the conjunction started after the day began, and
this is why the 2nd day feast of the New Moon. Nowhere
in scripture does it speak of light that
can be seen as New Moon all light can be seen. Where
would you draw the line on seeing, from High Mountain,
airplane, would clouds matter? Light that can be
seen from where? Would they have climbed a higher
hill if one close by? Would they have lifted them
selves up in a hot air balloon to see over the horizon?
If they had the means or went up in a plane? Or
would they have known without seeing any light,
as David did?
