The first sabbath wasn’t on a Saturday.. it was on the 22nd day of the 2nd month per exodus.. then it would lead it to be the next would have come on the 29th22nd of that month as commanded by God. Then the new moon would dictate the first day of the next month... 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th of each month determined by the moon (not like our sun calendar today) .... and the sabbath will move on different days of the week if we are truly following His word... problem is, the sabbath could be on a few Tuesdays in our ‘traditional’ days of week within a ‘tradional’month.. tough to ask off these days when churches temples govts have chosen Saturday or Sunday (or friday for Muslims)... our 5 day work week isn’t from God. Nor is our calendar... We have all been deceived about the Sabbath... when you search this out and discover it on your own, what would you do? Keep His Sabbath or your churches? Your govt? Your temple? Your false prophets? Not an easy question as we have been conditioned to mans calendar ....His Sabbath will occur on Saturdays and Sundays and Fridays and etc.... now let every one wrap around that concept...

I have studied this idea in some middling detail - But I rejected it, primarily because Judaism, despite it's faults, has kept a record all the way back to the 2nd Temple period (the time when Yeshua walked the earth). At the time of the 2nd Temple, as today, the Sabbath was honored in a weekly fashion on the seventh day. Since Yeshua honored that day, and provided no correction, I can reasonably assume that this is certainly one thing the Jewish tradition has correctly transmitted.

Equally problematic is that the only day the Jews have named (for time immemorial) is the seventh day - 1st day, second day, third day [...] sixth day, Sabbath Day. This reinforces the weekly count as a continuing and unbroken thing.

And finally, wrt the Prophecy, if the days were reset at the beginning of each month, it becomes virtually impossible - nay, flatly impossible - to determine that the prophecies were (and are being) fulfilled so very precisely as they obviously have been fulfilled. IOW, the Prophecy works according to the moon cycle of months in determining months and years, but requires the fixed week and the determination of days in order to calculate regardless of calendar.

And one can extrapolate the problem of 'resetting the week' into the Prophecy itself - What does one do with a 'prophecy of weeks', wherein the weeks are a determination of '7 year groups' if weeks reset? How can they be calculable in that case? In fact, they can't, but they are calculable (the numbers physically work) if the uninterrupted succession of weeks remain.

[...] our 5 day work week isn’t from God. Nor is our calendar..

Oh, I am well aware of that.

We have all been deceived about the Sabbath

I heartily agree - But the deception is Sunday, not the Seventh Day. You are welcome to try to convince me, but the Prophets stand in your way - The Prophecy is my thing, and is finally the proof that YHWH is God, and it is beautiful how perfectly it works - to the very day... to the very hour. I doubt entirely that your method can trump that.
