from the article: Thus, we can more clearly see the analogy Jesus made with His words: "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only" was in regards to this important festival of Rosh HaShanah.

Context doesn’t indicate that. The disciples were asking about the end of the age.

And Jesus, being quite strict with respect to the Torah (as its ultimate author), would have regarded the first day of the year as the first day of Nisan (Abib) per Exodus 12:2.

Did you forget to read verse 37?

The very next verse ties this one with the coming of the Son of Man.
