The Eight Days Of Creation

Updated: May 27, 2015, June 5, 12, 13, 2015

Might this change our perspective of time, our perspective of The Beginnings of our Years and our Months and our Weeks?

In the beginning (or In the Chief/First of time, the First Day of Time Appointed to man, the First Day of the Year, the First Day of the Month--could be the First Day of the First Month of the Year as well, as we will see very shortly) Elohim created the heavens (the Universe, that of course includes the sun and the moon and the stars, except at this point in time, Light was not called forth yet,) and the earth.
(Gen 1:1 The Scriptures 1998+)

The Hebrew word ראשׁית rê'shı̂yth H7225, translated as In the beginning, from the Hebrew root word ראשׁ rô'sh roshe H7218 which means The Chief (of time), or the First (of time), in this case day, as confirmed in Gen 1:5.

The passage could be translated as In the Chief Day, the First Day, (of the Year and Month) ...

And The Chief Day IS when the Creation of the Universe took place -- the Heavens (the sun, moon, and the stars) and the Earth, that should include Time and Space. This is the First Day of the month, and the first day of the year. It is the New Moon Day.

It is confirmed in Numbers 10:10 and Exodus 12:2--

Also in the day of your gladness, and in your solemn days, and in the beginnings(H7218 ראשׁ rô'sh Chief/First) of your months (New Moon Day), ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; that they may be to you for a memorial before your (~~God~~ Elohim): I am (~~the LORD~~ YHWH your (~~God~~ Elohim).
(Num 10:10 KJV)

“This month is the beginning(H7218 ראשׁ rô'sh Chief/First) of months for you, it is the first month of the year for you.
(Exo 12:2 The Scriptures 1998+) (YHWH was speaking on the New Moon Day).

And more references: Pro 8:23, Ecc 3:11, Isa 40:21, 41:26, Eze 40:1

Side Note:

“I1 was set up2 ages ago, at the first, Before3 the earth ever was.
Footnote: 1: Torah, which contains the Plan of Salvation, and Blue Print of YHWH's Kingdom progressively revealed through His prophets, in metaphors, idioms, parables, and physical realities, as our trainers, and when we do do them, until Yahushua Transposed it into the Spiritual Kingdom, our obedience to His Torah should bear fruit, that fruit is Faith. Faith, because our Trainer which is the Torah will have opened our Spiritual Eyes to see the Kingdom of YHWH.
2: Anointed, Ordained -- The Torah, and Later the Living Torah who is 100% Human Seed, was Anointed, Ordained In The Beginning.
3: the Heavens were created First, then the Earth, in the beginning.
(Pro 8:23 The Scriptures 1998+)

H8064 שׁמה שׁמים shâmayim shâmeh shaw-mah'-yim, shaw-meh': The second form being dual of an unused singular; from an unused root meaning to be lofty; the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible arch in which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve): - air, X astrologer, heaven (-s).
Please NOTE:: The word "Created" means already "completed" which would imply that the sun, moon and the stars were already there. And this is consistent with the Scriptures used of the word "H8064 שׁמה שׁמים shâmayim shâmeh shaw-mah'-yim, shaw-meh'".

And He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward the "heavens"1, and count the stars if you are able to count them.” And He said to him, “So are your seed.”
Footnote: 1 The same Hebrew word for Heaven in Gen 1:1, 22:17, Ex 32:13, Deut 1:10, 10:22, 28:62.
(Gen 15:5 The Scriptures 1998+)

and lest you lift up your eyes to the "heavens", and shall see the sun, and the moon, and the stars – all the host of the heavens – and you be drawn away into bowing down to them and serving them, which יהוה your Elohim has allotted to all the peoples under all the heavens.
Footnote: Deut 17:3
(Deu 4:19 The Scriptures 1998+)

So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself upon their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Yashar? Thus the sun stopped in the midst of the heavens, and did not hasten to go down for an entire day.
(Jos 10:13 The Scriptures 1998+)

If Time is related to Light, then we can deduced that Time was brought forth with the Light as well. Might that be the reason why the translators have overlooked it? For It happened on the day that followed the First Day. It was the 2nd Day of the Month, of the Year.

Now Time was created In The Beginning. But the translators of our Bible at the time they were translating it, their filter of calendation was probably the calendation we use today.

The key to this understanding is hidden in the English word "were" found in Genesis 1:5. It was a mistranslation from the Hebrew word היה hâyâh H1961.

H1961 היה hâyâh haw-yaw': A primitive root (compare H1933); to exist, that is, be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary): - beacon, X altogether, be (-come, accomplished, committed, like), break, cause, come (to pass), continue, do, faint, fall, + follow, happen, X have, last, pertain, quit (one-) self, require, X use.

As you can see, Strong's did not even list the word "were" as one of its possible definition. It appears this was a copula or auxiliary, but also appears as a wild guess.

But in the light of the Truth already Restored, listed above. A correct translation is uncovered, and is in order.

And (~~God~~ Elohim) called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning ~~were~~ followed(H1961 היה hâyâh) the first day. (The First Day was the Creation of the Universe, IF that was the 1st Day, then this was the 2nd Day that followed the First Day, make sense? Therefore, This is the 2nd Day of the month or the moon or the 2nd day of the year; and the 1st day of the work-week of creation.)
(Gen 1:5 KJV)

The same Hebrew word was also translated as followed in 1 Kings 16:21, so we are not making assumptions, rather we are restoring the words mistranslated in this passage, and also restoring the context by deduction:

Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts: half of the people followed(H1961 היה hâyâh) Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him king; and half followed Omri.
(1Ki 16:21 KJV)

The First Day, the Chief Day (1st Day of the Month and 1st Day of the Year) was the Creation of the Universe -- the Heavens and the Earth, that is including the sun, moon and stars. That was before the light was brought forth On the 2nd day of the moon/month/year.

Light was brought forth On the day That Followed the 1st Day, (Gen 1:3-5). Therefore, it was the 2nd day that Light was brought forth. And so on, Make sense?

Now fast forward to the 7th day of the moon/month or the year, please refer to the 7th day on the Creation Calendar above, notice: the 7th day is also Day 6 of the Creation Week:

And (~~God~~ Elohim) saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning ~~were~~ followed(H1961 היה hâyâh) the sixth day. (Therefore, This was the 7th Day of the month or the moon; and Day 6 of the work-week of creation.)
(Gen 1:31 KJV)

And on the seventh day (of the moon or the month or the year of creation; Day 6 of the work-week of creation ~~God~~ Elohim) ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day (of the week, also the 8th Day of the moon/month or the year of creation) from all his work which he had made.
(Gen 2:2 KJV)

Quick Side NOTE on the Sabbath:

YHWH, Elohim could not be Working and Resting at the same time on the 7th-Day, could He? "And on the seventh day Elohim ended His work" could only mean, He worked from morning till evening, that is explicitly written.
Therefore, He could only End His work of Creation on the 7th-Day of the Moon/Month (Lunar Month), otherwise, it would be violating the commandment to rest on the 7th-Day of the Hebrew Week (which is Lunar Week). Because, In the Chief/First Day, Gen 1:1, which, we can deduce, (Num 10:10, Exo 12:2, Psa 81:3), is New Moon Day, He Created the heavens and the earth, and on the 2nd Day of the moon, which is also the 1st day of the week of creation, Elohim started working on His creation, and on the 7th-Day of the moon/month, which is also the 6th-Day of the creation week, He ended His work of creation.
"On The 7th-Day Elohim ended His work", "and the 7th-Day He rested", both phrases are explicitly stated in this passage, Gen 2:2, and the ten commandments, Exo 20:11, Also explicitly stated YHWH work six days, and rested on the 7th-Day. This 7th-Day rest, in the ten commandments, could only mean the 7th-Day of the Hebrew Lunar Week. Therefore, the other 7th-Day, stated in this passage, could only mean the 7th-Day of the moon or the Lunar Month. It is then, they would be in harmony. Ending of work on the 7th-Day of the moon and Resting on the 7th-Day of the Hebrew Lunar Week would make sense, otherwise, this passage would seem contradicting, Selah!
If we filter this passage on the current Gregorian Calendar week, it would appear contradicting. Selah! How can YHWH End working at evening on the 7th-Day and be keeping the 4th commandment on the 7th-Day? Think about it!
The Perpetual Saturday Sabbath since creation, is a big LIE. Think about it!

Quick Side NOTE on the New Moon as Beacon to the Sabbath:

The New Moon Day as a Beacon Signal to the Sabbath can actually be found written in Gen 2:3 in the original Manuscripts. But this Can Not be read in our printed Bibles. Because it was Not Translated. Consequently all printed Bibles are Robbed of this Truth. If Restored, the passage would read like this:
And Elohim blessed the (Beacon Signal) and the seventh day (as opposed to night) and set it apart, because on it He rested from all His work which Elohim in creating had made.
(Gen 2:3 The Scriptures 1998+) http://biblehub.com/text/genesis/2-3.htm Accessed: April 24, 2015
Please see: Beacon Signal To The Sabbath for How To Find It ~ http://echoofrestorationtruths.blogspot.com/2015/04/beacon-signal-to-sabbath.html

Now, Gen 1:1-5 Cleared:

In the (~~beginning~~ First/Chief Day; the observer was outside the box) (~~God~~ Elohim) created (complete) the heaven (with the sun, moon and stars -- the celestial bodies) and the earth.
(Gen 1:1 KJV)

And (the observer is now inside the box) the earth was without form, and void; and darkness (precedes light) was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of (~~God~~ Elohim) moved upon the face of the waters.
(Gen 1:2 KJV)

And (~~God~~ Elohim) said, Let there be light: and there was light.
(Gen 1:3 KJV)

And (~~God~~ Elohim) saw the light, that it was good: and (~~God~~ Elohim) divided the light from the darkness.
(Gen 1:4 KJV)

And (~~God~~ Elohim) called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning (~~were~~ followed) the first day, (Light was brought forth after the First/Chief Day, which is the 2nd Day, which can also be the First Day of the Work Week of Creation).
(Gen 1:5 KJV)

Therefore, The Creator ended His work of creation in the 7th-day of Creation (parallel to the 7th Day of the moon/month in our day), also Day 6 of the creation week. And rested on the 7th-Day of the week, after the first six days of the work week of creation, which was also the 8th Day of the creation parallel the 8th day of the month/moon in our day.

Therefore, the New Moon Day is the memorial of Creation. And the Seventh-Day of the correct Lunar week is the memorial of the Hallowed Rest from working on the creation. That rest that is also yet to come. That Rest, the "already believed 7th millenium -- rest", according to this revelation, is actually, in physical reality, The Eight Day (of the creation week), which is a physical parallel of the 8th Day of the moon/month, which also prophetically points to the beginning of Eternity.

“Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, saying, ‘On the fifteenth day (please check on the Creation Calendar Above, the 15th falls on the 7th Day of the week, the Sabbath Day to YHWH) of this seventh month/7th moon is the Festival of Booths for seven days to יהוה.
(Lev 23:34 The Scriptures 1998+)

‘On the first day is a set-apart gathering (it is a High Sabbath, the yearly feast is on the weekly Sabbath), you do no servile work.
(Lev 23:35 The Scriptures 1998+)

‘For seven days you bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. On the eighth day (if you count 8 days from the 15th day on the Creation Calendar above, you will arrived on 22nd day, which is also a weekly Sabbath) there shall be a set-apart gathering for you, and you shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. It is a closing festival, you do no servile work.
(Lev 23:36 The Scriptures 1998+)

Now, that we have put the New Moon Day into its proper place in Creation. Might that change our beginning of months to be the dark phase of the moon, or No Moon Day, or Conjunction? Psalms 81:3:

Blow the ram’s horn at the time of the New Moon, At the full moonH3677, on our festival day. (Psa 81:3 The Scriptures 1998+)

H3677 כּסה כּסא kese' keseh keh'-seh, keh'-seh: Apparently from H3680; properly fulness or the full moon, that is, its festival: - (time) appointed.
Strong's Hebrew and Greek Dictionaries on eSword PC

Ancient Hebrew Lexicon of the Bible (AHLB) on eSword PC

From the Ancient Hebrew Lexicon of the Bible, the Hebrew word translated as Full Moon could also be translated as Covered or Concealed, in which case the Light of the Moon is Covered or Concealed. It is No Moon or Dark Moon or Conjunction.

Because in the beginning, there was no Light yet, on the Earth, If ever there was already Light in the heavens, something has covered or concealed it, from the observer on the earth, between the Earth and the Moon. But also, Light was brought forth (on the Earth or on the Heavens also? We might know this in succeeding revelations of the Lamb) in Gen 1:3, the 2nd Day of the Moon/Month, which is also the 1st Day of the week.

Please Note also that there is a comma after New Moon, therefore the New Moon and Full Moon in this passage could only be giving us clues of the phases of the Moon, in which case these two phases are obvious: the Full moon and the Dark moon or No moon or Conjunction are the exact opposites. Might it be saying that the New Moon day is the opposite of Full moon, which is Dark moon or No moon or Conjunction?

And If, "In the beginning" is dark, could it mean that the Dark moon, or No moon or Conjunction is the New Moon Day referred to in Num 10:10, Exo 12:2, and Psa 81:3? I am inclined to believe so.

Lately, it dawned on me to clear the Word "Chodesh".

H2320 חדשׁ chôdesh kho'-desh

From H2318; the new moon; by implication a month: - month (-ly), new moon.

H2318 חדשׁ châdash khaw-dash'

A primitive root; to be new; causatively to rebuild: - renew, repair.

renew verb re·new \ri-ˈnü, -ˈnyü\

: to make (something) new, fresh, or strong again

: to make (a promise, vow, etc.) again

: to begin (something) again especially with more force or enthusiasm

Questions:

When the moon begins to reflect light, is it renewing (to be new) or is it already renewed (New)?
If New Moon is "to be new", Might It Be No Moon or Dark Moon or Conjunction, before it begins to reflect light?
And might the First Visible Crescent be the First Day of the Work Week? Please comment below.
