Happy First Day of Creation!
Chabad.org ^ | 24th of Elul 5781 years ago | G-d Almighty

Posted on 09/13/2020 7:25:43 PM PDT by Phinneous

Hayom harat olam. Today the world was created. Who doesn't keep to their Jewish calendar these days! Even if you have decoupled Easter from Passover, you'll still find interesting the fact that the Jews have a calendar almost 5781 years old. And today is the day G-d said "Let there be light" on the first day of creation.

The sixth day of creation is Rosh Hashana-- because the head of the year begins when man (Adam-- from the Hebrew words "earth/dust" and "similar" because Adam was from the dust, and had faculties that reflected G-d's faculties, so to speak***, of intellect and emotion) So the creation of Man is the head of the year, Rosh Hashana.

Friday night is the beginning of Rosh Hashana. A sweet new year to all. May we all be signed and sealed in the book of life.

And today is the day G-d said "Let there be light" on the first day of creation.

The Torah begins with the Fibonacci Series. It's true! It's a cumulative song. :)

סדרת פיבונאצ'י

913 =

בראשית

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13...

I wonder, wonder who, who-oo-ooh, who
(Who wrote the book of love)
Tell me, tell me, tell me
Oh, who wrote the Book of Love
I've got to know the answer
Was it someone from above?

ספר האהבה

= 358

"The space between the lines is called בינה"

( = 67 -- אלול, לב יהודי)

בינה aka:

FACE - The Secret of Elul

Mafte'ach "Sol"

Line by line, every good boy does fine!

There you go, it explains why David knew when it was midnight -- it was always midnight in David's house. Midnight oil, the miracle anointing oil that never runs out! Full of love, full of understanding -- the FACE of God.

Who'd want to look away even for a second?

The Light of the World pierced the darkness that was on the face of the deep.

I am not a “young Earther”.
This calendar, in its figuring, means that the pyramids are less than 4000 years old.

The pyramids date to 2200 to 2400 BC - so 4200 to 4400 YA.

The monuments at Gobekli Tepes date to around 8000 BC so 10,000 years ago.
