The 400-year Baktun in figure 14 centers the midpoint 360-years to specify lunar/solar separation time. Lunar/solar separation returns 210-years to be time split in half. The left-hand 105-years assign to the feminine half of lunar/solar separation (Eqn. 40). A solar-side time split 105-years is on the right-hand side. The summary assigns 105-years solar-side reckoning to the masculine half of lunar/solar separation time (Eqn. 39). The 400-year Baktun is instrumental to the secondary age category. By this token, 360-years are the midpoint between 354.75-years of lunar-side time and 365.25-years of solar-side time. Figure 14 rounds to the whole numbers 354-lunar-years and 365-solar-years for consistency.

Suppose you are one of the people recording the sky events. Modern chronology puts the date at 4,000 B.C.E. Since you are making the first calendar, you do not have any previous information to go by. There is no technology. There are no fancy computers to make calculations or store anything. There are no watches or telescopes to make your job any easier. You are busy trying to eek out a living from the soil. Your family needs to know when to plant seeds for crops, expect the rainy season and when to harvest. Your family is fortunate enough to raise a few cows and some sheep. Science tells us the life expectancy for people back then was maybe 35 years old.

At the age of fifteen, your father hands you the book of the holy writings. He tells you to watch carefully the positions of the moon and stars and to write them down. Every night you watch the moon change with the lunar phases. You record the moon's course against a starry background. You cannot get much sleep because in the daytime you are watching exactly where the sun rises and sets on the horizon. Day after day, year after year, you write down the rising and setting directions. You document the transit of the sun and note the positions of the stars.

You notice the sun has returned approximately to the same beginning place at the ripe age of 35. The whole process seems to repeat. You hand down the holy writings to your son when he turns fifteen. For the next twenty years, your son watches the sky and writes the same information. He passes it on to his son, and he does exactly the same thing. Your family keeps track of these records for twenty generations. After 400-years, one of your great-grandchildren, ad infinitum, notices the sun comes back to the original position, less a fraction of a degree. Knowledge of the stars and constellations generates religion in nearby villages. Word of the holy writings begins to spread and your family achieves royal status. Actual observation of the heavens is the only way to make the lunar/solar calendar.
 
A family or dynasty living in Egypt requires meticulous observation over 73 generations to make just one 1,460 year Sothic Cycle calendar. Traditional chronology credits King Djoser of the third dynasty with introducing the 365-day-solar-year in 2650 B.C.E. Djoser (Netjerykhet ) ruled between 2668-2649 B.C.E. and built the first stone Step Pyramid at Saqqara. Your family continues to make improvements on the calendar system.

Ptolemy III, (280-221 B.C.E.) officially included leap day calculations. His Canopus decree in 238 B.C.E. adds one day every four years to correct the gradual drift of winter feasts through the year. Leap Day adds a single day every four years to the existing winter solstice 5-day Feast of the Walking Stick. Feast of the Walking Stick celebrates the end of the 360-day-year. Romans would later rename the feast to Saturnalia. The family has been observing the motions of the heavens for over 3,000 years. Anyone in this simple example only had one opportunity to relay the information accurately down to his or her heirs.

There are some housekeeping issues to think about before going further. We must respect the attitudes and opinions of many people, past and present. Heritage and legacy esteem ancestors regardless of whoever they may be. There is more at stake than what meets the eye. Until now, these calendar numbers; the tools, numerical matching, and lunar-side and solar-side time splits are merely fragments of calendar patterns. They are all notes of the same song, time. We have recognized the Almighty God while exacting calendar information from diverse culture and other religions. Deities, gods and kings have played differing roles in calendar development. Beliefs in the afterlife and resurrection of the righteous affect religion.

The Holy Bible mentions polytheism and adverse spirituality. Negative connotations surround characters such as Seth and Enoch. The favor of God bestows blessings. The wrath of God is a curse to endure. Delving into the distant past exposes both beneficial and malevolent tendencies. Many layers of time have passed to soften and diffuse the supernatural works showcased by the Exodus. Miracles in the New Testament significantly changed Greek and Roman perceptions. Calendar research excavates deeply about foundational social structures.

The concept of professional ethics is mandatory. Safety and security for everyone are prime concerns in conjunction with sheer calendar numbers. Calendar science accesses intangible resources from the time stream that may touch other lives. The subjective nature of time makes possible the grandiose and sublime. Grace empowers us to know morally right from wrong. This quest directly seeks the spirit of the Holy Bible. Existing theology is always an asset that preserves basic human rights and justice for all. Ultimate social profit is the desired end.

The pyramid depicted in figure 6 shows the all-seeing eye associated with Osirus and the 1,461-year Sothic Cycle. The eye is similar to the eye appearing on the back of a United States one-dollar bill. Our founding fathers realized the significance of Egyptian mythology. Changes to the older Roman Julian Calendar in 1,582 A.D. to the Gregorian Calendar left colonists with mixed religious feelings. Hence, Constitutional directives called for the freedom of religion and the separation of church and state. Any changes to the 365-day-solar-year calendar can reverberate through time for literally hundreds of years.

The above example shows the gravity of profound calendar change. Historians usually indicate the Sothic Cycle lasting 1,460-years. Figure 6 cites the Sothic Cycle to be 1,461-years. In the text, a 364-day-year seems odd for people so advanced. The reason behind listing 364-days as opposed to 365-days for a solar year is the simple 1-day to 1-year concept of numerical matching. After King Djoser in the third dynasty, Egyptologists are sure 5-special-days were included following the 360-day midpoint, or Tun-year, of the Mesoamerican calendars. The Mayan calendar provides background l/s calendar information to aid our study. Lunar/separation times are crucial to the ancient past.

The 364-day calendar year is the ancient Jewish Jubilee calendar year. A 364-day calendar year is also the forerunner of the Egyptian Sothic Cycle calendar. Judaism tended to follow lunar reckoning in contrast to the Egyptians using solar reckoning. Within Judaism, both lunar and solar schools of thought were evident. Lunar/solar calendars permit application of the Mesoamerican calendar branch. One cannot abandon chronology. At this point, we must surpass existing chronology. We are moving into pre-history to study the calendar of the Antediluvian Patriarchs in detail.

New Year (Rosh Hashanah) in the Jubilee calendar year begins at sunset on the vernal equinox, March 21. Unlike the modern version, sunset on March 22 is the first day of the seventh month in the Torah Jubilee Year (Lev. 23:24-27). On the tenth day of the same month, the Day of Atonement is the most solemn of Jewish holidays. The modern Jewish Calendar observes Rosh Hashanah according to the autumnal equinox.

The Jubilee calendar year incorporates 10-days of l/s separation time. The difference between a 354-day-lunar-year and a modified 364-day Enochian Sect year is 10-days. An explicit 365-day-solar-year results in 11-days of l/s separation. The consistent notion of cascaded time is imperative to the ancient Jubilee year. The time stream, natural and supernatural, flows between the lunar-side and solar-side of the calendar. This supreme religious philosophy has guarded and preserved the
spiritual realm for eternity.

The four cardinal points of the year wield authority over the entire solar-side of the calendar. Two equinoxes and two solstices exhibit the viewpoint of having four different Jewish new years. The minimum and maximum daylight periods during the year's regular course each represent the beginning of four seasons. The calendar year of Enoch likewise divides into four equal 91-day quarters. Four major stars command the heavenly circuit and luminaries. They represent individual cascaded
control for a single day over three 30-day months per quarter. Enoch, in heavenly visions, describes the "secret year". All principalities, heaven and earth, are subject to 364-years, which constitute numerical matching with 364-days. One final day each year accumulates to empower the capstone 364-day calendar year by Enoch.

Genesis lists the Antediluvian Patriarchs in sequential order. Established chronologies transfix a linear, solar-year number line format to ages recorded for Adam and his offspring. Application of lunar/solar calendars extracts calendar fragments in the original ancient style. There are two theological issues at stake.

The lineage of Adam is a Judeo-Christian core belief. To introduce lunar/solar calendar tools boldly amends accepted chronology and the greater impact upon humanity. Lost civilizations sought vigorously to record and preserve sacred calendar information. Some manuscripts are the product of recopied information many times over. The written knowledge may be far older than the document's physical age. Ancient texts have value by virtue of their antiquity. Supreme intent will accommodate the differing skill mix and faith eschatology of multiple cultures.

A unified theory of lunar/solar comparisons accesses supernatural influences. This material tightly focuses upon the seams and joints of time. Religious experiences and revelation fill the Holy Bible. Nearly every shred of testimony and miraculous deed combines the eternal presence of God with the calendar. The will of God and the time stream follow the natural lunar-side and solar-side banks. The calendar is an intangible aspect of spiritual writings. Knowledge of the Word, in conjunction with calendar deployment elevates our personal hopes, dreams and prayers. The benefit to readers accelerates unseen thought and word. Ageless worship techniques from the masters ensure others receive requested blessings. Fervent prayer stimulates the concussion of heaven. The best practical approach elicits humility of oneself and sincerity of heart. Genuinely felt emotions and concrete visualizations will strengthen a truthful purpose.

Abstract traces in ancient mythology supplement the anthropology of past culture. Clever screening of stories retold and rewritten gives historians the opportunity to discern the more important pieces that still survive. Architecture and other physical relics discovered are studied elements of bygone days. Customs and folklore secure clearer understanding of former society. In libraries and museums, our appreciation preserves distant heritage and hopefully the future will conserve those
days and things shared today.

Jewish, Egyptian and Mesoamerican calendars all adjusted a neutral 360-day length of year with intercalations. Ancient Jewry perpetuated seven-day weeks in an unceasing cycle of Sabbaths to accomplish intercalations. The Jubilee 50-year cycle counted 7-years in a Sabbath week. Each Jubilee culminated 7 cycles of 7-year-weeks for 49-years. The primary 105-year age of Seth twice repeats the Jubilee. Some writers feel the last fiftieth year was included for intercalation. Other sacred writings list two Jubilees that make 98 years, plus one additional 7-year-week for Seth. Either case numerically matches days to years with repetitive multiples to dominate l/s calendar development. Religious mythology was insistent upon the calendar mathematics of the empire.

A 260-day period comprised the agricultural sacred year that began and ended on the same dates during any standard 365-day-solar-year. The remaining 105-days every year serve to reinforce later multiples of years. The Jewish Calendar repeats the sacred number seven to describe time cycles similarly. For the 19-year Metonic cycle, about 105-days signify the solar-side time split of 19-year lunar/solar cycles. Mesoamerican calendars adapt a 20-year cycle known as a Mayan Katun cycle.

Both Egyptian and Sun Kingdoms' calendars emphasized repetitive multiples. Mesoamerican calendars used the 20-year lunar/solar cycle exclusively. These calendars multiplied the 20-year lunar/solar cycle again by 20-years to obtain "20-years of 20-years", or 400-years of years. The ancients had no way to express 400-years of years, so they simply called them "400-years." Multiplying the 20-years Katun l/s cycle by itself has the meaning of squaring time. A 20-year lunar/solar Katun cycle of the Mesoamerican Sun Kingdoms' calendar attributes 105-days to the solar-side and 105-days to the lunar-side of the calendar.

A Katun cycle that results in 210-days of lunar/solar separation time squares to build 210-years of lunar/solar separation time for any given 400-year Baktun period. Lunar/solar separation time matches 210-days with 210-years time split into halves for masculine and feminine time genders. Substitution can replace the 210-years of l/s separation with 400-year Baktun cycles. The 400-year-Baktun cycle forms part of the Dresden Codex.

The primary age of Adam was 130-years old at the time of fathering Seth. Adam's primary age 130-years double to complete a sacred-cycle of 260-years. The Bible matches days to years so that 130-days double to complete a Mesoamerican 260-day-sacred-year. In the pie graph of figure 11, the primary 130-year age of Adam shows relationship to the 260-year-sacred-cycle. The lower portion of figure 11 indicates the last 105-days and 105-years. Seth's primary age 105-days and 105-years compose a single matched term that serves to reinforce impression of 365-day-solar-years and 365-year-solar-cycles. Seth has the same solar-side, primary 105-year age at the time of fathering Enos.

The primary 105-year age of Seth carries significant numerical traits developed from calendar tools. The primary 130-year age of Adam first divides the 260-year-sacred-cycle. The 260-day-sacred-year parallels a 260-year-sacred-cycle. Seth's first solar-side time split 105-days add with 260-days to complete a 365-day length of year. After two 400-year-Baktuns, or an 800-year Generation Cycle, the resulting total solar-side time split is 210-years. The primary 105-year age of Seth halves 210-years to mark the first solar-side time split in the primary age category. Seth's matched time split 105-years add with a 260-year-sacred-cycle to complete the total 365-year-cycle.

The archaic Jewish Jubilee calendar was similar in concept to the Enochian Sect calendar that used 364-days. The role of the single last day every year evidences the common idea of numerical matching in ancient calendars. The cascaded notions of 105-days and 105-years, together suit a single numerical term. Solar-side time split is the determining half for 105-days and years in a single term.

In the genealogy of Genesis, Chapter 5, Seth is the first generation following Adam. Seth means founder, or originator in literal Hebrew. Seth is the baseline heir for the paternal chronology of Adam. Seth's primary 105-year age invoked the first solar-side time split following Adam's era. Solar-side time splits bisected the 260-year-sacred-cycle with the pretense of division to separate and to make holy those times to follow. Halves, and quarters of the 260-year-sacred-cycle began and terminated at intersections with solar-side time splits. Ancient eyes saw lunar/solar calendar patterns advance by watching and recording heavenly motions. The primary age category marking the halving, doubling, and dividing of time continues to Enos in the Holy of Holies sequel to Ages of Adam.
 


The next logical step to recording time was to double the 400-year-Baktun-cycle. Abraham's covenant with the Lord relates to a 400-year span in Genesis 15:13 - 16, with literal Hebrew definitions arising from the presence of ancestry. The next age bracket advances the l/s calendar to the 800-year era. Twice the 400-year-Baktun-cycle measures the 800-year Generation Cycle. Calendar references for the "begat" genealogy following Adam affix 800-year Generation Cycles to each named character's secondary age category. Actions of doubling and halving time interval tools discovered from associated calendars yield a repeating order. The procedure of God coming between and dividing time continues further lunar/solar separations.
 

Genesis 5:4

"And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters:"

Adam lived for 800-years in a full Generation Cycle following the birth of Seth. The secondary 800-year age of Adam arises from two successive 400-year-Baktun-cycles of the ancient Sun Kingdoms' Calendars. The 400-year Baktun holds the most significant position of the Long Count Initial Series. Mesoamerican dating usually begins the Long Count with 13 Baktun cycles. The secondary age category adds 400-year increments for each major l/s event. This work applies the 800-year Generation Cycle to describe the time following the birth of Seth until the death of Adam.

Critical points in the primary age category coincide with 400-year-Baktun-cycle transitions. The 260-year-sacred-cycle halves to chronicle the primary 130-year age of Adam. At this primary age category critical point, the 400-year-Baktun-cycle doubles to get 800-years in the secondary age of Adam. Baktun cycles add to the secondary age category total. Additions that extend the length of the l/s calendar required changing the masculine solar-side of lunar/solar separation time. Simply doubling the primary 130-year age of Adam would have resulted in the original 260-year-sacred-cycle. A different method needs to record the next layer of the calendar.

The scriptures chose to show the next masculine, solar-side of time projection as the primary 105-year age of Seth. By doubling the 400-year-Baktun-cycle, we get the secondary 800-year age of Adam. The primary age of Adam halves a 260-year-sacred-cycle (fig. 11). The secondary age doubles the 400-year-Baktun-cycle to achieve 800-years. Seth's distinctive 105-year solar-side time split is half of the solar-side 210-years time split. After Adam's 800-year secondary age, the complete 210-years of solar-side separation time divide in half for 105-years. The lower pie section of figure 11 shows 105-days and 105-years to be the primary age of Seth at the time of fathering the next character.

Baktun cycles having 400-years increment the secondary age category and synchronize the primary ages. Corresponding primary age category elements of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle interleave with solar-side time splits. Adam's first half of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle is followed by Seth�s first half of solar-side time split. Secondary age 800-year Generation Cycles repeat for each Patriarch from Adam through Jared.

Ideas of God dividing and coming between lunar and solar separation times transfer to people with other ordained principles. The mirror image of God was man. Pharaohs and kingly leaders of the ancient world mediate between the heavenly realm in the afterlife and mortal humanity below. God and man together conformed to notions of masculine, sun-side reckoning for lunar/solar time. The sky-father concept carries forth by assigning a lesser deity rule to past monarchs. Personal pronoun names and the generic literal meanings combine to explain characters such as Adam. Early theology substitutes monarchs, deities and other character names for specific allotted times.

In literal Hebrew and English, the name of Adam applies in two ways. The generic man exists in the mortal sense. Adam also recognizes the personal pronoun name for a deified king patriarch type of character. Working along these lines, synchronism between two types of years had to be developed. First, there was the agricultural 260-day sacred year. Secondly, a midpoint 360-day type of year was halfway between lunar and solar years. The 360-day midpoint length of year helped measure the time of God coming between and separating greater differences involved with lunar/solar calendars.

The 800-year Generation Cycle dominated the lineage following Adam. Once the secondary 800-year age of Adam had completed to produce the primary 105-year age of Seth, another 800-year Generation Cycle was counted to continue the pattern. Through the genealogy following Adam, i.e. Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, and Jared, each secondary age incorporates an 800-year Generation Cycle. Based on actual heavenly observations, this time had to pass to properly record later lunar/solar time splits found in the Holy Bible.

The oldest written calendar information in the world penetrates into the past extreme. We are using the ancient Jewish, Egyptian, and Mesoamerican calendars in braided fashion to develop the oldest trunk line of calendar science ever known. To put this material in better perspective, we should pause for a moment to grasp the magnitude of this discovery.

About 5,000 years ago, or 3,000 B.C.E., the early Egyptians were experimenting with stepped pyramid building. Djoser's Step Pyramid at Saqqara and Ziggurats have resemblance to later Mesoamerican stepped pyramids. Later ruling dynasties would modify their architecture to the sloped pyramid. The Great Pyramid of Cheops is a wonder of the ancient world and the most famous of the sloped pyramids. Wooden or reed sailing vessels may have served passage for people to carry the calendar to the New World and settle near the Yucatan Peninsula. Many are the Mayan ruins and others that support a link across the ocean so long ago. Pyramid facades and temple entrances show evidence of similar decoration. Stelae, standing stones, and sacred pillars often mentioned in the Old Testament indicate religious and social connections. The custom of carving stone pillars for writing, glyph pictures and preserving calendar records was common throughout Central and South America.

Sacred writings tend to mix calendar recognition with the afterlife. Life after death is a cultural belief practiced from the ancient world through modern times. Proper respect for the dead is a religious behavior imperative. Abel's blood crying out from the ground is our first scriptural evidence of burial having spiritual ties (Gen. 4:10). Eternal spirits in the heavenly realm are detached from calendar time restraints.

We know the story about Moses and the Exodus by the Israelites from Egyptian bondage. Moses grew up in the house of the Pharaoh and certainly had access to past Egyptian calendar information (Exodus 2:9-10). Egyptian temple initiates trained in the secret operations of the calendar. Priestly neophytes participated in special rituals. Both Hebrew and Egyptian religions monitored exactly who knew what regarding the deeper mysteries of the calendar. Mesoamerican lore preserves an abundance of calendar ceremonial rites. Leviticus tells the story of the revelation at Mt. Sinai, Jubilee Years and instructions for keeping sacred feasts and festivals. The Jewish Ordo de Secretis Intercalationis endorses the secret order of calendar intercalations. Given the sanctity of keeping Sabbath and other holidays as holy, calendar information is sacred.

Enoch achieves the status of Metatron following the transfiguration mentioned in Genesis 5:24 and Hebrews 11:5. Perception of the spirit world combines bits and pieces of calendar data with dual philosophies toward heaven and hell. Enoch 3 encapsulates angelology with imagery. The significant number 72 connects angels and heavenly princes. Raphatiel is the prince appointed over the constellations and accompanied by 72 great and honored angels (Ch. XVII:6-7). There are also 72 princes in the kingdoms of the world (Ch. XXX:2). Other references point to the righteous Metatron's 72 wings. Subordinate to the Holy One, vast numbers measure 354 thousand (parasangs) for the moon and 365,000 (myriads of) ministering angels for the sun (Ch. XVII:5-7). Numerical relationships written into the angelology of Enoch appear as metaphors, exactly like Egyptian mythology. For the other Patriarchs, ending the secondary age brought death. Death launched the afterlife continuity for humans and gods.

Enoch 3 is full of colorful metaphors that predominately associate with continuous weekly Sabbaths. Majesty in the heavens is complete at the four heads of four fiery rivers. There are 7 heavens and 49 costly stones in the royal crown which shines the light of the sun globe (Ch. XII:3). The ultimate Holy One is seated upon the Throne of Glory. Evangelical fire and brimstone copies Enoch 3. The brilliance of Shekina has 1,000 times the brilliance of the sun. A dark cloud veils Shekina to shield mortal people from the blinding light. Two great princes serve as keepers to write the book of the living and the book of the dead.

Enoch 1 and Enoch 2 characterize physical astronomy rather than concentrating on relevant heavenly visions. Operation of the 364-day Enochian year integrates closely with Mesoamerican and Egyptian calendar formats. Sabbath Days and Sabbath year-weeks conform to guidelines established by the Holy One. Lunar months having 29-days or 30-days expand to 29-years or 30-years in a month of numerically matched years. The potential exists to isolate 800-year Generation Cycles in each secondary age from the total secondary age. Birth, death and Enoch's translation outline all three works of Enoch. A lifetime 365-solar-year age suggests factors that influenced early calendars.

Religious attitudes toward agriculture derive from the calendar. Feast, famine, planting and harvesting depended upon the seasons. Movement of celestial light and dark objects formed the rungs of the calendar ladder. The Babylonian calendar compares with the Jewish in early periods. Dual Jewish and Babylonian monthly names are given in figure 2 for the Metonic 19-year Jewish Calendar. The state of agricultural products, special conditions, weather and the prevailing astronomical
opinions had impact on the calendar.

Early ages in the dawn of civilization need definite chronology or a presently known dating system. Nomadic hunters and seed gatherers began to develop culture, settling into small communities. Some 20,000 years ago in lands east of the Mediterranean Sea, the diversity of culture was spreading. An agricultural community arose in the "Fertile Crescent" portion of the world. Social graduation to using seasons of planting and harvesting was historically comparable with the advent of specialized labors. Rich soil of the locale and the availability of a fresh water supply permitted the land to be cultivated for crops. The eastern Mediterranean coastline supplemented human diet with an easy harvest. Greek writers later knew the fertile region between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates as Mesopotamia. Literally, the area was "between the rivers" to the Greeks. Biblical geography has aided historical science. Scripture reports l/s calendar eras with extraordinary language and meaning adequate for classical science.

The Mediterranean coastlands supported agriculture. Mild winters, fertile soil and the autumnal rainy season provided ideal growing conditions. People lived near the exalted "Garden of Eden" all year long. Maturation of the societies blended the ability to share cumulative knowledge gained, pass this resultant knowledge down to their children and engage in deductive reasoning that allowed the group to acquire skills. Humankind had satisfied basic needs of food, clothing and shelter to logically plan. Citizens gravitated into small groups to aid one another and became dependent on specialized vocations. The agricultural economy developed into city life, complete with a variety of labor divisions. These techniques of social grid work provided mastery of increasingly complex skills. Civilization was beginning to evolve.

Historians generally agree that agriculture had begun roughly 10,000 B.C.E. - 8,000 B.C.E. in that part of the world called Mesopotamia. Domesticated sheep and cattle also existed during this time. The scriptures mention that Abel kept sheep and Cain was a tiller of the ground (Genesis 4:2). Initial confirmation adheres to the need for an accurate calendar in order to establish planting and harvesting times during the year. Three agricultural festivals that date from the Exodus are the Festival of Unleavened Bread, Feast of Tabernacles and the Feast of First Fruits. Optimizing crop production would be the effective goal of a precise calendar.

The Jewish Jubilee calendar year included two growing seasons that ended in harvest celebrations. Five days after the Day of Atonement, the fifteenth day of Tishri celebrates a 7-day festival called the Feast of Tabernacles, or Sukkot (Lev. 23:34, Deut. 16:13-16). Seven days commemorate the forty years that the children of Israel wandered in the desert following the Exodus from Egypt. The temporal nature of life gives reason to erect temporary shelters, wherein eating at least one meal per day in the Sukkah honors God's provisions. The whole family decorates the Sukkah booth with fruits and vegetables. Partial walls and roof admit sunlight and provide shaded areas. Later observances converted this Festival of Ingathering harvest celebration into a historical festival. Also called the Feast of Trumpets, Tabernacles was the only feast with specific instructions to rejoice. The lulav (branches of four species) and the etrog (citron) are traditional wave offerings. The Feast of Booths marks thanksgiving for the fruit and grain harvest. Grapes for wine, barley and wheat were the crops gathered. Coming at completion of the entire harvest, the shofar blast heralds the second bounty in the modern calendar year.

Fifty days after the Passover anniversary celebrating the night of the Exodus is the Feast of First Fruits (Numbers 28:26). Known as the springtime feast holiday Shavu'ot, the festival occurs during the Jewish month of Sivan (Esther 8:9). English translation adapts the word sometimes to Shav'ot, Sabbouth, or Shabout. Seven weeks of seven days determines the name Feast of Weeks for same festival and the transition day from the sixth to the seventh day in the month of Sivan. Sivan is the third month of the sacred festival year, and the ninth month of the modern Jewish Calendar year. The sixth of Sivan honors Shavu'ot for a single day only in Israel. Elsewhere, the sixth and seventh days of Sivan observe Shavu'ot. The 50-day lapse between the two festivals represents the complete 50-year lunar calendar of Moses. God ordained Shavu'ot to celebrate the revelation at Mt. Sinai. This holiday marks the anniversary of giving God's teachings to Moses. God gave the Hebrews the first Five Books of Moses, which are called the Torah in Judaism, or the Pentateuch by Greek terminology. Shavu'ot emphasizes the Torah with the use of dairy products.

The early agricultural society ended the waiting period for the harvest. Most likely predating the Exodus, Counting the Sheaves for fifty days culminated with the first fruits of spring. Farmers brought the first fruits of the land to the Temple. Rejoicing in the bounty of the grain harvest marked the end of the 50-day interval. Decorating with flowers, green plants, fruits, and vegetables are part of the tradition for the spring season. Avoiding meat and the use of leather goods reminds Jewish people to preserve living things during Shavu'ot. With the destruction of the second Temple in 70 BCE, the agricultural ritual of the first fruits became symbolic. The encounter at Mt. Sinai became the focus of the festival.

The Old Testament calendar system used differences between the lunar year provided by 12-months of new moons and solar years measured against the stars. The Great Flood sealed evidence of a vast floating chronology. The traditions and folklore of Mesopotamia deeply embed the calendar system based on the sun, moon and stars as natural timekeepers. Sometime prior to about 3,000 B.C.E. this calendar centers geographically near the ancient city of Byblos. Trees likely held lunar month carvings that later transferred to vertical stone columns. The stationary marker sited motions of the heavens and recorded them for later generations. The typical concept is that a small pocket of civilization evolved ahead of surrounding cultures, probably from Sumerian roots and moved southward into the Sinai Peninsula and Egypt.

Before Abraham led the Hebrews away from Ur and King Menes united the two lands of Egypt, the calendar of Genesis reveals several thousand years. Ages recorded for the Antediluvian Patriarchs from Adam through Jared entailed two distinct categories of lunar/solar timekeeping. The primary age category references the 260-year sacred cycle. Halves and quarters of the 260-year-sacred-cycle denote the time until the character fathers, or starts, the next named character. The secondary age category references successive 400-year-Batun-cycles. Baktun cycles count from 1 to 13 in multiples of two Baktuns that measure a Generation Cycle. The last thirteenth Baktun cycle signifies the end of the Great Cycle. Enoch's transfiguration of 300 years in the secondary age category culminates the Great Cycle of 13 Baktun cycles. The final lifetime 365-solar-year age of Enoch shows a pronounced transition from the 12 lunar month year to 365-day-solar-years. The identical l/s pattern carries forward to Mesoamerican calendars.

 

The secondary 800-year Generation Cycle is the final tool needed to resolve the genealogy of Adam. Segments of 800-years increment the secondary age category at every primary age division. Generation Cycles illustrate the wisdom of ancient minds. Extending the ancient recordings expresses by repeating the secondary 800-year age of Adam. A repeating 800-year Generation Cycle was included with the secondary age for each later descendant Patriarch. Antediluvian characters from Adam through Jared utilize the 800-year Generation Cycle as part of their respective secondary ages. The 800-year Generation Cycle was a single unit of time. Components from lunar/solar calendar systems assemble the advanced Generation Cycle tool.

Generation Cycles allow modern society to examine early scriptures based on identical content meanings. Numeric remnants of the calendar and names attached to it constitute basic ingredients found with the Jewish Calendar, Egyptian Calendar and Mesoamerican Calendars of the Western Hemisphere. Manifest in mythology and religion, proto-historic gods and deities aided formulation of the calendar. The calendar used an agricultural sacred-year of 260-days within every year of 365-days and extends by repeating 800-year Generation Cycles. Three different calendars combine for a hybrid understanding of extremely remote bonds in history. All three above were major calendars of the ancient world and commence between 4,241 B.C.E. and 3,113 B.C.E. years. Entwined with the mythology of the Egyptians and Israelite folklore, the Mesoamericans add their beliefs regarding this advanced form of the calendar. A pattern emerges to span nearly 8,000-years of history prior to the Great Flood of Noah.

The secondary age category begins the first 400-year-Baktun-cycle. Mere 20-year cycles brought the heavens to a very close arrangement compared to the original state. The 20-year l/s cycle required further calendar refinements. The 400-year-Baktun-cycle enhances lunar/solar timekeeping over 20 multiples of 20-year l/s cycles. The 400-year-Baktun-cycle was a product of the Mayan Calendar and the comprehensive period to indicate 210-years of l/s separation time. The 400-year-Baktun-cycle doubles to get the secondary 800-year age of Adam. The secondary 800-year age of Adam completes the first 800-year Generation Cycle. Later descendants of Adam continued to add 800-year spans.

The Mesoamerican Calendars employed a 52-year Calendar Round that used both the 260-day-sacred-year and the 360-day midpoint length of year. Working like meshed gears, 52-Haab-years of 365-days each and 73-sacred-years having 260-days each pinpointed any calendar date. The 52-year Calendar Round of Mesoamerica is famous to archeology. After 18,980-days, the 52-year Calendar Round repeats. An intensive ideology focused upon the Calendar Round preserved religious and social customs. The Calendar Round derives from the original calendar of Adam.

A Great Cycle in the Mayan Calendar expands the 52-year Calendar Round to 5,200 years. Concentric time shifts the reference from days to years. The scale multiple is exactly 100 times greater in the Great Cycles versus the Calendar Round. The Long Count Initial Series and the Great Cycle are variations along the same theme. The Long Count was a popular way to synthesize calendar meanings in the mid-twentieth century. Mesoamerican chronologists point to the cyclic nature of Mayan calendar time. A Great Cycle consisting of 5,200-Haab-years follows the same sequence of 13 Baktuns as the Long Count.

Twelve consecutive 400-year-Baktun-cycles give rise to the presumed Mayan Creation date of 13.0.0.0.0. The Mayan Baktun numbers range from 1 to 13 in the Long Count Initial Series rather than 0 to 12. The Long Count is a number line, linear format developed for convenience. On the other hand, the Great Cycle presumes 12 Baktuns have already elapsed prior to 13.0.0.0.0. The Great Cycle repeats after 5,200-Haab-years, or 7300-sacred-years, whereas the Long Count happens once.

Judeo-Christian history began with similar lunar/solar time reckoning concepts. Archaic evidence reveals that 800-year Generation Cycles were entrenched during the era of Adam and Eve. The time line establishes earliest Bible followers held acquired skills in astronomy, mathematics and communications. Actual observation through ancient eyes taught astronomers the 20-year lunar/solar cycle repeated the same heavenly sun, moon and star positions. The rational key to this calendar system accounts for precise fractions of degrees to the horizon, the phase of moon and gradual star locations. Lunar/solar time keeping order warrants a calendar system that later transferred to Mesoamerica either intact or in pieces. Located near Byblos and Ur, a small pocket of culture preserved the calendar in Genesis 5.

The calendar numbers found in the Holy Bible is, was, and ever shall be -- everlasting. The eternal domain belongs to God. Beginning with Adam (generic man) and Eve (sunset, Ĕrēve), the calendar is the human way to measure time and our precious treasure from the Bible. Message skills developed to permit transfer of the sacred calendar knowledge. The Word is the sanctuary for calendar material that begins over 10,000 years ago. Genesis 5 holds the 800-year Generation Cycle legacy of the ancient past.

Calendar science highlights more awareness and esteem for early people than what is currently agreed. Primeval humanity wrote this calendar material in the familiar style common to their culture. Countless languages and interpretations preserve the sacred calendar numbers. From original Hebrew and Greek, through Old English and modern, we have the astonishing knowledge of distant past history. Beyond the sheer numbers and impressive calendar math, this Bible study describes absolute time reckoning in the sense prevalent back then. Our modern task is to adapt present understanding to reflect a people with extraordinary abilities.

Adam and his descendants accent a culture with outstanding perception and reasoning. Adam first identified a primary 130-year age, which was half of a 260-year-sacred-cycle. Seth was the first masculine, solar-side time split written for two Mesoamerican 400-year-Baktun-cycles. The next l/s time split in the primary age category quarters the 260-year-sacred-cycle to derive the primary 90-sacred-year age of Enos. Third descendant in Adam's line, Enos was born when Seth was 105-years old. At the end of the primary 90-sacred-year age of Enos, Cainan was born. The calendar system of halving, doubling and dividing time predicated most history.

In order to describe ancient theories of time reckoning, the 260-day-sacred-year and the 260-year-sacred-cycle divide in half. The calendar applies numerical matching to obtain 130-days and 130-years in a single term. The division of 210-l/s-separation-days for a 20-year cycle results in 105-days of solar-side time split. The calendar squares 20-years by multiplying a 20-year cycle by itself. The resulting 400-year-Baktun-cycle numerically matches 210-l/s-separation-years.

Significant steps in the secondary age category occur for each 400-year-Baktun-cycle. The 260-year-sacred-cycle in the primary age category halves for the primary 130-year age of Adam at the completion of the first 400-year-Baktun-cycle. The second 400-year-Baktun-cycle increments the secondary age category to attain the first Generation Cycle for Adam. The third 400-year-Baktun-cycle equally halves 210-years of lunar/solar separation to get 105-years of solar-side time split. A fourth 400-year-Baktun-cycle adds to Seth's secondary age category. Seth's secondary age category concludes 1,600-years l/s time.

The end of odd 400-year-Baktun-cycle multiples are the halfway point transitions that determine changes in the primary age category. For example, the first 400-year-Baktun-cycle ending signals the halfway division of the primary age 260-year-sacred-cycle. The end of the second 400-year-Baktun-cycle also ends the first Generation Cycle for Adam. A third 400-year-Baktun-cycle ends to halve 210-years of l/s separation time. The halfway transition point of Seth's secondary age category starts, or "begets", 105-years of solar-side time split in Seth's primary age category. A pattern emerges to alternate divisions of the 260-year-sacred-cycle with solar-side time splits in the primary age category.

Given by Genesis 5:6, Seth's primary age at the time of fathering Enos is 105-years. The first 800-year Generation Cycle finishes the secondary age category for Adam at the end of two successive 400-year-Baktun-cycles. The secondary 807-year age of Seth uses the same method. Seth repeats the 800-year Generation Cycle for the second time. Seth's primary age halves 210-years of separation time to show 105-years of solar-side time split instead of dividing the 260-year-sacred-cycle. Divisions of the 260-year-sacred-cycle alternate with successive solar-side time splits.

Genesis 5:7

"And Seth lived after he begat Enos eight hundred and seven years, and begat sons and daughters:"

The secondary 807-year age of Seth prescribes 800-years to be a partial segment device within the whole period. The 800-year Generation Cycle repeats to hold place value in the secondary 807-year age case of Seth. The third and fourth 400-year-Baktun-cycles in the Antediluvian lineage combine for the second 800-year Generation Cycle.

The secondary 807-year age of Seth includes an 800-year Generation Cycle, plus another 7-sacred-year component. To account for the last 5-year adjustment of either 360-days or 365-days, the ancients chose the 260-day-sacred-year unit. Another 7-sacred-year component adds with 800-years to describe the entire secondary 807-year age of Seth. Remaining time following each 800-year Generation Cycle always adds to the Patriarch's secondary age. Through the ancestry and the character of Jared, reversing conversions between 260-day-sacred-years and 360-day-Tun-years took place.

Seth, the first generation after Adam, completes a 365-day-solar-year and 365-year-solar-cycle as shown in figure 11. The primary 105-year age of Seth adds with a 260-year-sacred-cycle for 365-years. A 360-day midpoint length of year leaves 5-days per year unaccounted for at the end of 365-years. Two viewpoints are possible with the 260-year-sacred-cycle steadfast. The first case is a 365-year-solar-cycle period in conjunction with a 360-day midpoint length of year. A 5-year difference exists between the 365-year-solar-cycle and 360-years.

The 360-year midpoint length of cycle was fundamental to lunar/solar calendar operations. A difference of 100-years from the 260-year-sacred-cycle compares with the primary 105-year age of Seth. Seth's primary 105-year age is actually a composite that includes two distinct sub-periods. The first 100-years are between the 260-year-sacred-cycle and the 360-year midpoint cycle. The last 5-years compute 7-sacred-years in the secondary age category. Three methods estimate 7-sacred-years in equations 41-46.

Equation 41a multiplies for 1,800-days using a 365-year-solar-cycle that has 360-days per year. The alternate method in equation 41b likewise multiplies for the same 1,800-days using a 360-year midpoint cycle and a 5-day feast period remaining between 360-days and the 365-day-solar-year. The secondary 800-year Generation Cycle of Seth repeats Adam's secondary 800-year Generation Cycle with 1,800-days or more leftover.

Equation 42 finds the total 1820-days for the identified 7-sacred-year portion of Seth's secondary 807-year age. Seth's 7-sacred-year supplemental time multiplies by the 260-day-sacred-year for 1820 days. Seth's primary 105-year age had been the solar-side result after the third 400-year-Baktun-cycle.

Substituting the more familiar 365-day-solar-year and the 365-year-solar-cycle into the calculations shows the incredible accuracy of the ancient calendar. A 365-year-solar-cycle substitutes in place of the 360-year midpoint length of cycle. Comparable substitution uses a 365-day-solar-year in place of 360-days to result in 1,825-days (Eqn. 43). The last 5-years in Seth's 105-year primary age amounts some 1,800-days to 1,825 days. Time beyond the 800-year Generation Cycle approximates to 7-sacred-years, which add in the secondary 807-sacred-year age of Seth.

Where the equations are redundant, either case divides by a 260-day-sacred-year to find two values approximating 7-sacred-years. For 1,800-days, dividing by 260-day-sacred-years equals 6.92-sacred-years (Eqn. 44a). In the case of 1,825-days, dividing by 260-day-sacred-years results in 7.02-sacred-years (Eqn. 44b). The last analysis closely approximates 7-sacred-years as supplemental time in the secondary 807-year age of Seth.

The Enochian 364-day calendar suits cascaded time layers for Seth. A 100-days and years single term continues with the last 5-years in the primary age category. A calendar year of 364-days provides 105-days in 105-years. The last 5-years of Seth's primary 105-year age multiply by 364-days in Eqn. 45. Exactly 1,820-days divide by the 260-day-sacred-year to secure the last 7-sacred-years in the secondary age category (Eqn.46). Both the primary age 5-years and the secondary age 7-sacred-years are congruent to 1,820-days.

The Ethiopian Book of Enoch (I) advises the perfect calendar year has 364-days. A 364-day Jubilee calendar year quite possibly demonstrates the oldest mention of cascaded time. Affiliations with initial Egyptian Calendar practices clarify 4-days assigned to solar-side and 6-days assigned to the lunar-side of the calendar. The final summit day of the 365-day calendar year and four controlling days, one for each quarter of the year, were the principal rulers of time.

Our tools enable current Bible students to explore the most remote thought processes ever. A final revelation point examines the Leap Day inclusion. Most people today are familiar with the Leap Day inclusion every four years. The single Leap Day addition every four years in our modern calendar was once a vital element for the ancient Egyptian Calendar. The Egyptian Calendar summed the quarter-day fraction every year. The last year of 365-days adds the summit to make the entire Sothic Cycle 1,461-years long. Leap Day had a very important role in remote calendars. Enoch, seventh Antediluvian Patriarch from Adam links with the Egyptian Calendar. The Enochian Sect applied a curious 364-day calendar year with the parallel theme of numerical matching. Leap Days exist rooted in the 400-year-Baktun-cycle. A 400-year repeating Leap Day cycle appears in our present calendar.

The present Gregorian calendar labels the current 2005 calendar year. Our calendar embraces fine-tuning. Leap Day is normally included every fourth year on February 29. The Leap Day adjustment is required to keep the star positions on track over successive years. A 400-year cycle exists by restricting Leap Days to century years not evenly divisible by 400-years. Pope Gregory XIII modified the Julian calendar and associated Leap Day correction rules in 1582 to maintain proper Easter calculations. Easter was slipping farther into summer. The namesake calendar reform dropped the 10-days between October 5 and October 15 in 1582. The rule implemented excluded Leap Days in centennial years not evenly divisible by 400-years. Thus, the years 1700, 1800 and 1900 excluded Leap Day. The years 1600 and 2000 added Leap Day in the usual manner. Solar year stability needs only 97 Leap Day insertions in a 400-year period.

The calendar math from the three oldest major calendars: the early Jewish Calendar, the Egyptian Calendar, and the Mesoamerican Calendars shared phenomenal accuracy that resembles our modern Gregorian calendar. Leap Day adjustments were fundamental to the religious eschatology of ancient Egypt. Lunar/solar 19 and 20-year cycles anchored the four cardinal points of the solar year. A winter solstice celebration later called Saturnalia served to perpetuate the Egyptian calendar. The vernal, spring equinox began the Jewish Jubilee calendar year and the New Year of the ancient Greece. The book of Enoch cites the summer solstice. Fall harvest festivals such as the Feast of Tabernacles from the Jewish lunar calendar reference the occipital, fall equinox. Leap Day calculations in our present calendar identify a 400-year pattern that reflects the Mayan 400-year Baktun-cycle.

The translated "generation" alludes to Abraham's first-born son after 400-years. Gen. 15:16 implies knowledge of a 400-year period. Strands referenced from sacred literature testify that given 400-year-Baktun-cycles weave into our modern view of Biblical chronology. A multiple of two 400-year-Baktun-cycles specify the 800-year Generation Cycle. The 400-year-Baktun-cycle is the final bridge to Mesoamerican history.

The calendar detailing Adam's lineage exhibits numerical matching. In a single term, 365-day-solar-years and 365-year-solar-cycles occur throughout the text. Conceptions of days and years having the same numerical value elaborate the meaning for "and all the days of ... were ... years." Calendar study secures the components of 105-days and 105-years as a single term. The agricultural 260-day-sacred-year and the matched 260-year-sacred-cycle describe a single term also.

The complete genealogy of Adam to Noah expands in the Holy of Holies. Applying lunar/solar calendar math from the three oldest sources: the Jewish Calendar, Egyptian Calendar and Mesoamerican Calendars discovers definite agreements for the ages of Adam. Progressing through the genealogy following are the lunar/solar calendar records that extend from the oldest sources of Genesis scriptures ever known. Each Antediluvian Patriarch character in the lineage to Enoch reports time reckoning common to ancient civilizations. A primary age category and a secondary category define elements of the lengthening calendar. Birth until the next named son is the primary age category. The secondary age category is the time measured from fatherhood to death. The primary ages of Adam and his son, Seth, begin to recount vast spans of time.

The lunar/solar calendar order of the Patriarchs continues to unfold in the same manner. Components from other calendar systems assemble to employ advanced tools. The named characters from Adam to Jared list a primary age category time that associates with the 260-year-sacred-cycle. The secondary age category includes the 800-year Generation Cycle. Two multiples of a 400-year-Baktun-cycle are combined for all six repeating 800-year Generation Cycles. Additional time adds to the secondary age 800-year Generation Cycles and calculates in 260-day-sacred-years.

The Antediluvian Patriarchs incorporate a spiritual hierarchy. Birth, life and death events mark strategic points to illustrate lunar/solar calendar reckoning. Natural and explicit, the recognized eras are numerical remnants left to us by a skilled society. Kings, deities and the nature of gods all played a role in ancient cosmology. References to supernatural beings and visions are most noteworthy in the writings of Enoch.

The lifetime age of Enoch, the seventh patriarch from Adam, was 365-years. More precisely, a 365-day-solar-year and the 365-year-solar-cycle appear as a 365-days-and-years single term. The solar calendar of Enoch was rooted in both Egyptian mythology and Jewish lore. From the three books of Enoch, a curious 364-day length of calendar year lends new insight by reserving the last day of the solar year. A final day and year single term serves again, numerical matching of days versus years. Enoch blends with parts of many prophetic scriptures, such as "... one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day" (II Peter 3:8). Ideas of an angelic, heavenly host compare with other sacred Jewish writings that regard supernatural entities. The Talmud, Dead Sea Scrolls, and the Book of Jubilees are such examples. Calendar information is serious business.



Preparation is necessary to continue this discussion of the Holy Bible and some of the world's oldest and most sacred writings. The numbers recorded are absolute, precise definitions of ancient calendar mathematics perhaps 10,000 years ago. The Antediluvian Patriarchs, or pre-flood fore fathers, are generally considered simply leaders. The Patriarchs include the "begat" family descendants following Adam in chapter 5 of Genesis. Like the ancestry of Kings and Pharaohs, entire epochs of
time describe the lifetime rule. A primary age measures years from birth to fatherhood of the next named son for each character. A secondary age then follows until the character's death. All primary ages form the primary age category and secondary ages constitute the secondary age category. The Bible sums the primary and secondary ages to give a lifetime age total for each character. Our study will span the named Patriarchs from Adam through Enoch.
 
In Old Testament days, the Holy of Holies or the Most Holy Place, was the most sacred part of a temple. Levite priests were the only people allowed to enter the Holy of Holies during special worship times. Priests burned incense and performed sacrificial ceremonies. The famous Ark of the Covenant adorned this Most Holy Place. The Holy of Holies was usually located toward the rear of the Tabernacle and surrounded by a thick curtain (Exodus Ch. 25-40). Inside the Holy of Holies, a golden lamp stand, table, incense altar and bronze altar usually accompanied the Ark of the Covenant. The table held the "Bread of the Presence". The Ark and most tabernacle furnishings had rings and carrying poles. Sheets of gold covered the portable furnishings.

God specifically directed Moses to build the Ark of the Covenant for the liberated Hebrews. Leviticus combines the Jewish sacred calendar year of feasts and festivals with relevant topics about holiness. Rules for keeping 7-day Sabbaths have supreme importance. Various movements within Judaism perpetuate associated customs. Physical objects of ritualistic worship decorated priestly ceremonies.

The Ark of the Covenant has symbolized Judaism at large for the last several thousand years of the traditional Jewish calendar. The Ark was a consecrated object that symbolized a portable Most Holy Place for the temple. Joshua later led the Israelites across the Jordan River near Jericho. When the priests who carried the same Ark reached the Jordan River and their feet touched the water's edge, the water from upstream stopped flowing. This miracle demonstrates the power of the Lord resting upon the Ark of the Covenant in the midst of the river Jordan.
 

Joshua 3:17

"And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan,
and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan."

 
The Lord's wrath demands equal respect. King Uzziah of Judah learned that pride can be one's downfall. Uzziah transgressed against the Lord his God by entering the Most Holy Place with intentions of burning incense upon the altar. When confronted by Azariah the priest and eighty others, the reserved practice of burning incense to the Lord in the temple became apparent. The priests warned King Uzziah.
 

2 Chronicles 26:18

"And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense: go out of the sanctuary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be for thine honour from the LORD God."

King Uzziah became angry, and while still holding a censor to burn incense, he was afflicted. Leprosy broke out on Uzziah's forehead at that very moment. King Uzziah was a leper, forced to live separate and excluded for the rest of his life.

These two examples help illustrate the importance of maintaining the sanctity of the temple, and especially the Holy of Holies. Like Torah scrolls, the Holy Bible and other documentary evidence, the method of media used to convey an accurate representation of the Word of God is incidental to the fundamental knowledge gained. Sacred calendar information is a very dedicated part of that Word, and reflects the kind of knowledge with which Moses left Egypt. Gold laden artifacts and incense were merely ritualistic. The essence of a living God was abstract without either form or flesh. The oldest knowledge of the Word supplemented the Exodus venture.

Lunar/solar calendars were used in ancient times to measure these ages. A theology that aligned mechanics of the lunar/solar calendar with the lives of prevailing rulers weighed heavily upon ancient records. King lists and spiritual rulers often shared the heavenly realm. Special mediators between God above and mortal people below, the Antediluvian Patriarchs provide new revelations.

Calendar research of the Holy Bible begins with basic lunar counting procedures. Spiritual connotations and literal translations aid our present understanding. Ideas of God coming between, separating and dividing time expanded to include months and years. Worship principles encompassed lunar/solar calendars of ancient people. The Jewish Calendar is the oldest l/s calendar still in continuous use for Jewish people. A survey of the Jewish Calendar and the 19-year l/s calendar cycle traces the origins back to the Exodus. Agricultural feasts and festivals were ordained in scripture. Intercalary days add 7-months, or 209 days, in unceasing 7-day weeks to keep the lunar-side of the calendar on track with the solar-side. The Jewish Calendar is a lunar/solar model to help explore similar calendar instruments.

Ancient people of the Mediterranean coastlands, Mesopotamia and the Yucatan Peninsula shared lunar/solar calendar concepts and religious practices. Past evidence already exists to secure a vantage point that renders pre-historical culture. Calendar tools develop to apply consistent lunar/solar perceptions to other time reckoning systems. A 360-day length of year centers every year between 354-day-lunar-years and 365-day-solar-years. The architecture of stepped temples, mythological lore and sacred texts document relationships long ago. Ruling authorities often displayed calendar records on standing stones or sacred pillars. Engravings and testimonials provide supporting evidence. Extended treatment of lunar-side and solar-side components create lunar/solar calendars for numbered multiples of years. Mystical interpretation aligns gods and deities with cosmology. Jewish, Egyptian and Mesoamerican calendar techniques are useful examples of ancient past calendars.

The Egyptian Calendar recognizes a 1,460-year Sothic Cycle. Converging pyramid slopes introduce cascaded time thinking. Controlling stars, named for gods, exerted influence during set astronomical cycles. Numerical matching of X number of days with X number of years was also a common characteristic of ancient calendars. Identical lunar/solar origins led to using 210-days, or 7-months of 30-days each, in a 20-year l/s cycle. Mesoamerican 20-year l/s cycles squared to become 400-year-Baktun-cycles. Numerical matching scaled the intercalary 210-days to signify 210-years for every 400-year-Baktun-cycle. Two 400-year-Baktun-cycles add together to create an 800-year Generation Cycle. The 800-year Generation Cycle repeats for each character from Adam to Jared in the secondary age category. Some features and folklore surrounding the Egyptian Calendar transferred to the Western Hemisphere about 3,000 B.C.E.

Legends and calendar evidence survives to indicate Mesoamerican culture adopted l/s calendar traits. Individual calendars of the Yucatan Peninsula branched to become the Aztec, Incan and Mayan Calendars. Gears serve to illustrate Mesoamerican 52-year Calendar Round operations. The bulk of this work refers to accepted Mayan nomenclature for established time cycles. The sacred 260-day-Tzolken-year and civil 360-day-Tun-year multiplied together in the 52-year Calendar Round. Egyptian and Mayan calendars add a special 5-day festival period at the end of the year. A 360-day-Tun-year lengthens for the complete solar 365-day-Haab-year. Background material gained from the ancient Jewish, Egyptian and Mayan Calendars allows us to penetrate more deeply than ever before. The Book of Enoch and the Book of Jubilees impart more sacred text evidence of distant past calendars.

The unifying methodology of combined lunar/solar calendar systems climaxes to explain time recorded for the Antediluvian Patriarchs in the Holy Bible. Beginning with the Ages of Adam, we have the proper calendar tools to understand extreme past lifestyle. The archaic style of early people measured time. Each character lists a primary age from birth to fatherhood and a secondary age until death. Significant l/s calendar times correlate with numbered ages in the primary age category. For Adam, the primary 130-year age matches half of the 260-year-Tzolken-sacred-cycle. Two 400-year-Baktun-cycles add to make Adam's secondary age 800-year Generation Cycle. Secondary ages from Adam through Jared link with multiples of the 400-year-Baktun-cycle in the Mayan 5200-year Great Cycle.

Lunar/solar separation time divides in half to expose the primary 105-year age of Seth. The secondary 807-year age of Seth repeats an 800-year Generation Cycle. The last 5-years in Seth's primary 105-year age compares equally to the last 7-sacred-years of the secondary age category. Time reckoning in Genesis shares identification of specific intervals with names and numbers. Number patterns are the framework of calendar science.

A correlation exists between the ages written for the Antediluvian Patriarchs and specific lunar/solar calendar information known long ago. Prehistoric style established numbering to mark the passage of time. Days and years count according to the most ancient calendar system ever devised. The Holy Bible preserved time by naming eras for past monarchs. In remote history, knowledge and power coincided with operation of the calendar. Short summaries for the Biblical ages of Adam and Seth follow. Time Emits has published a separate Holy of Holies for the listed Patriarchs Enos, Cainan, Mahaleel, Jared and Enoch.

A special place called the Holy of Holies was common to ancient Judaism and compares with ancient Egyptology. Entry to this area of the temple was limited to the religious elect. Reasons for protecting this very sacred calendar material preserved the social framework of theocracy. Supernatural occurrences manifested in predictable ritual and behavior inside the Holy of Holies. Seemingly random magical instances occasionally transpired upon worshipping participants.

By testimony and spiritual occurrences written in the Holy Bible, we accept proof of miraculous deeds. Optimizing our lives to seek Him is a fundamental purpose of time. A substantial relationship exists between time and the Holy Spirit. Very old time cycles in this vein awaken dormant magical forces. Virtually untapped resources having divine properties expose. Raw manifestations directly happen to an elevated level of spiritual awareness. The discerning person realizes paranormal situations through personal dreams and emotions. Some instances can alter the physical form world. Our search to know the ways and mindset of God may lead to spontaneous and unexpected actions. Religion reserves Sabbaths and other worship times to connect people with the Almighty.

These numbers and their meanings are the actual building blocks of time itself. Time Emits will continue the quest to do calendar research in conjunction with the Holy Bible. The Holy of Holies will detail similar calendar practices and analysis for the Antediluvian Patriarchs from Enos, the grandson of Adam, to Enoch. Penetrate hundreds and even thousands of years, unto the foundations of the world with the eternal Lord. The Holy of Holies follows Ages of Adam to deliver an ultimate message to those who have understanding.

Thousands of years have elapsed since the first Patriarchs began measuring time. The course of world history has obscured exact characterizations and meanings of the Antediluvian times. The floating history offered by Genesis 5 is unfixed in terms of modern Gregorian calendar dating. Long ago and today, the calendar date stamps past events. Modern science adapts ancient history to fit our solar calendar system. The intention dates every event within the confines of B.C.E. or A.D. to establish or enhance credibility.

Two entirely different subjects are worth pondering. The absolute age of the Holy Bible and the general viewpoint regarding human anthropology cede to discussion. These commencements need addressing before anyone can posit a date for the Creative Week. Jewish scholars regressing backward from 359 C.E. and the standardized modern Jewish Calendar, have attempted to determine Creation by mixing calendar science with known events. To some extent, the Egyptian Calendar emerges as a guideline. The Egyptian Calendar supports the Deluge in 2,345 B.C.E., the Exodus between 1,460-1,470 B.C.E and many other significant dates in Jewish chronology. Maya writings and calendar studies advanced in western chronology following the 1950's. Over 100 years of archeology and exploration have led to the modern version of the Mayan Calendar.

The best way to map chronology is to benefit from the same calendar system that ancient people once lived by. Ages listed in Genesis mandate that scientists adjust their calculations to a corresponding lunar/solar strategy. Treating these numbers as superfluous or abstract dismisses tremendous potential. Culture, art and history have deeply rooted facets in the ancient past. The ramifications of this calendar science discovery to the world are monumental.

 
Synopsis for the Biblical Ages of Adam

• The integrity of calendar durations and distant religious eschatology are preserved. The calendar maintains days and years as different unit measurements of time.

• Biblical mention of the famed ages of Adam in chapter 5 of Genesis was deeply rooted in the ancient lunar/solar calendar system.

• Numerical matching is a basic concept discovered in ancient lunar/solar calendars. The 365-day-solar-year and the 365-year-solar-cycle numerically match in a 365-days-and-years single term.

• The 260-day-sacred-year and the 260-year-sacred-cycle relate by numerical matching. The 105-day portion of a 365-day-solar-year and a 105-year portion of a 365-year-cycle relate by numerical content.

• Middle Eastern lunar/solar calendars using the 19-year cycle resulted in 209 days of lunar/solar separation. The Mesoamerican Calendars approximate lunar/solar separation time to be 210 days during a 20-year cycle. Shared intervals of both calendar types prove the original Bible calendar was the stem.

• The primary age of Adam was 130 years of 360 days per year when he begat Seth. The 260-year-sacred-cycle is divided in half for the primary 130-year age of Adam.

• The Great Cycle and the Long Count Initial Series of the Mesoamerican Sun Kingdoms' Calendars of Central and South America employ Mayan Baktun 400-year lunar/solar cycles.

• The Great Cycle includes 13 Mayan 400-year-Baktun-cycles, which amount to 5200-Haab-years of 365-day-solar-years. Two 400-year-Baktun-cycles add to make one 800-year Generation Cycle visible in the secondary ages.

• In the Mesoamerican dual calendar system, a Great Cycle equally expresses as 7300-sacred-years of 260-days each.

• All primary ages belong to a category. Primary ages begin with a named Antediluvian Patriarch's birth and end with the next named offspring son.

• All secondary age belong to a category that measures from fatherhood until death of the named character. Secondary ages from Adam through Jared consist of one 800-year Generation Cycle plus additional 260-day-sacred-years.

• The secondary age of Adam is the first 800-year Generation Cycle. An 800-year Generation Cycle includes two 400-year-Baktun-cycles. The Generation Cycle derives from the Mayan Great Cycle or the Long Count Initial Series having 5200-Haab-years of 355-day-solar-years. Depending on the context used, the Mayan Great Cycle can also mean 5200-Tun-years of 360-days each.

• The ultimate power of God and time inspired the Creation. Survival meant the concerns of raising food and nurturing the children. The calendar was the only way to measure events for both instinct and nature.

Synopsis for the Biblical Ages of Seth

• The effects of cascaded time form an elementary pattern:

• Seth in the Bible relates with the Egyptian mythological Seth. Fixed, sacred pillars that held calendar records symbolized Semitic Baals and Seth. Seth was the first-generation founder of the patriarchal age order.

• The 19-year lunar/solar calendar cycle measures 209-days of lunar/solar separation time. The 20-year lunar/solar calendar cycle approximates lunar/solar differences to be 210-days of lunar/solar separation time.

• Four layers of cascaded time are visible for Seth. The 260-day-sacred-year adds 105-days to figure a combined 365-day-solar-year.

• The solar-side half of 210-days lunar/solar separation time found with a 20-year-cycle is 105-days.

• A 400-year-Baktun-cycle divides 210-years of lunar/solar separation time to get 105-years of solar-side time split half. The 400-year-Baktun-Cycle results from 20 multiples of 20-year-cycles.

• The 260-year-sacred-cycle plus another 105-years total the combined 365-solar-year cycle.

• The 260-day-sacred-year adds 100-days to figure a 360-day midpoint length of year. The 360-day length of year is the middle position between lunar and solar calendar years in early calendar systems. By the same token, a 260-year-sacred-cycle adds 100-years for 360-years.

• Five days and years were treated as a single term to be added to the 100-day-and-year single term.

• Two 400-year-Baktun-cycles add for the 800-year Generation Cycle in Ages of Adam. An 800-year Generation Cycle provides two 105-year solar-side time splits in the secondary 800-year age of Adam.

• The primary 105-year age of Seth includes the last 5-years of 365-days each for 1,825-days. The Enochian 364-day calendar year results in 1,820-days exactly.

• The secondary 807-year age of Seth repeats the 800-year Generation Cycle. An additional 7-sacred-years, or 1,820-days, equal the last 5-years in the primary 105-year age of Seth. Five additional 364-day-solar-years, or 1,820 days, divide by 260-days for 7-sacred years. Seven-sacred-years are added to the secondary 800-year Generation Cycle of Seth to arrive at 807-years.
