CALCULATING GOD’S CALENDAR & HOLY DAYS
From creation God appointed the Sun, Moon and Stars to tell us about the Holy Days in their seasons. “And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years” (Gen 1:14). The word “seasons”, as defined in Strong’s Concordance of the Bible, is taken from the Hebrew word “Moed”, meaning “an appointment, i.e. a fixed time or season; specifically a festival; by implication, an assembly (as convened for a definite purpose); technically the congregation; by extension, the place of meeting; also a signal (as appointed beforehand):--appointed (sign, time), (place of, solemn) assembly, (appointed, due) season, (set) time (appointed).” In other words, God has put on His calendar times when He wants to meet with His children. And God expects us to keeps His appointments on those Feast Days.
In Lev 23:2-4 Moed is translated “Feasts” and “seasons” (“Concerning the Feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations … ye shall proclaim [them] in their seasons”). In Psa 104:19 God says “He appointed the moon for seasons”. That’s why, in Lev 23 the Holy Days are designated by months/moons.
