In the previous blog, we discussed how Day Four’s greater and lesser lights marked the appointed time of Feasts, highlighting the connection between light and YHWH’s festivals. The Hebrew term for the two luminaries was me-o-rot (p) מְאֹרֹת, a word closely connected to the Tabernacle’s menorah.

The purpose of the two luminaries was to provide light to the earth. The Hebrew word for light, `owr, אוֹר, has a numerical value of 207 (א = 1, ו = 6, ר = 200)

A year consists of two seasons: long days of sunlight and long days of darkness, similar to the hours of day and night. The seven months of light in the Calculated Hebrew Calendar (CHC) are Abib (30 days), Iyar (29 days), Sivan (30 days), Tammuz (29 days), Av (30 days), Elul (29 days), and Tishri (30 days). The total days of these seven months (30 + 29 + 30 + 29 + 30 + 29 + 30) is 207, stamped with the word value of light.

Only the months with 30 days contain Holy Festivals. A 29-day month hosts an annual Feast.

All yearly adjustments to the CHC occur outside of the seven months of light, ensuring a fixed 207-day count for the Festivals of Light throughout each year.

Takeaway:
YHWH’s feasts occur in the seven months of light, which are themselves marked with light.
