A Strange History of the Calendar

[@mutixcelr8]

I like how you simplified and put an end to the argument of who's using the right calendar. Time and space just simply won't let us accurately measure and keep track o the days no matter how hard we try.

I'm obsessed with calendars and have written software to emulate the Roman Calendar and to show the correct days and calendars in the ancient era. So imagine my delight when this video about my obsession says at 6:46 "It doesn't tell you today is May 3rd." May 3rd is my birthday!

[@misskiya]

Lunar/ solar is the ancient Israelite calendar scriptures Nex The Most High told them to use the lights in the sky to clock the days, years and seasons. The new moon is definitely the natural beginning of the month as the word month itself is the proto Germanic word meaning moon.

Ironically 11 minutes shouldn't seem a wild digression since most waste far more time than that in a number of activities throughout their days. Fascinating bit of history with the Cleopatra tale as man seems more intent on pleasing the dictates of 21 year old princess ousted from her seat of power than caring about what day it truly was.

Why an extra day? A true year is 364 days (Enoch and the book of Jubilee talk about 364 days year) 13x28 (28 days is the period the moon takes to cycle the earth - meaning you will see a complete full moon at the same position every 28 days.

The best "calendar" is probably just to measure which direction the shadows point when the sun sets, in ancient times they would do this with little towers of rocks, this method is convenient and precise and very accurate. The second best is a lunar phase calendar, which is precise and very convenient but can be inaccurate; the third best is a solar calendar, which is precise and very accurate but can be inconvenient; and the fourth best is a lunar cycle calendar, which is convenient and accurate but can be very imprecise. Although this all varies depending on the specific method used.

The Egyptians used the lunar calendar because t two reasons first one the vapor canopy . You couldn't see the sign under the thick vapor canopy. Number two the Egyptians said the son moved positions in the sky from time to time.. which is true

The true inventor of the Gregorian calendar was Nikephorus Gregoras a Byzantine Greek in 1324. The Byzantine emperor didn’t want to create confusion and disagreements within his empire so he dismissed it. People don’t understand that the Renaissance in science and art actually started in the Byzantine empire but unfortunately after the ottoman conquest the brightest minds of the Greek world fled to the west so the Renaissance was continued in Italy because no civilization could flourish under the ottomans

​@@Leoforos13 Well, even a larger number of Greeks fled to Russia and yet Russia had no Renaissance. So what is your explanation for that?

@@gabriellima7900 The question itself is wrong. I am not saying that western countries like Italy cannot say that the were centers of the Renaissance, that would absurd . For this particular video I am commenting how the work of certain man (Nikephoros Gregoras) is not mentioned. The Eastern Roman Empire is seen in the west as backwards. In reality It was a beacon of medieval civilization where the foundations of the renaissance were laid. The artistic, technological and scientific progress of Byzantium is ignored in the west which makes sense since the Greeks were under Ottoman rule and could not promote their culture or make any cultural advancements and since historiography was in the hands of the westerners all the medieval Greek (Byzantine) figures of art and science don’t get the attention they deserve while their work is now claimed by others

[@Leoforos13]

@@gabriellima7900 So YES. It should be mentioned that all this progress of the renaissance in the west had already started in Byzantium. And it is not a matter of nationalism (Greek) or chauvinism. Yes the eastern Roman Empire especially in its final centuries was more ethnically homogenous (Greek) but you could also find Slavs, Armenians, Jews or even Turks. Anyone who was an orthodox Christian, identified as Roman and spoke Greek could ascend in the church, the army and the educational sector (or even become emperor)

The weekly cycle wasn't changed despite all the confusion taking place with the calenders. The year 1752 had 11 days removed from the calendar and this is the sequence of the weekly cycle, with the new numbers of the day: Wednesday, September 02, 1752 and the following day was Thursday, September 14, 1752. The Sabbath is still the same day and the Jews also keep it on the same day, even today.

[@adrian7856]

Sabbath is Saturday, while Sunday is the first day of the week. Since Christ died a Sunday the Christians made it the new Sabbath to celebrate Mass, and renamed it "Dominicus" in the Latin speaking world, which means "Day of the Lord". To make matters funnier, the Latin speaking Christians renamed Saturday to Sabbath, so now in languages like Spanish you have Sábado (Sabbath) followed by Domingo (Dominicus).

May I ask, why don't you think the keeping of time, started with Jubilee? You act like time keeping is natural, I would argue that obsessing over time, is not a natural concept. To act like it's natural, is dismissive. Only Jewish history gets to the root of the cause. Then God was born into the world and time wrapped around him, bc He is the alpha and Omega, beginning and the End. After this life, time will run on a different scale, called eternity. God will forever see you as perfect, or a sinner, for all eternity. Only way to be seen as perfect, before God, is to accept God's perfect sacrifice, His only begotten Son. But good video!
