When does a day start? Evening or Morning?

When does the Biblical Day Start? Evening or Morning?

This is a great study and very interesting to learn the calendar and timing of His Feast days too. There are a few (well, many) verses that will help with this, and when a definition is needed, it is best to let the bible define itself. Is a biblical day sunrise to sunrise? Is a biblical day sunset to sunset? Or is a biblical day sunrise to sunset? (and some say dawn or daybreak to dusk).

longest/shortest day shadow clock

I had wondered what the easiest way would be to determine the beginning of the year...the equinox or more accurately the equilux when I happened across this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okRBa6yW1Mo

It is just a basic sundial but only measures the length of the shadow of the sun. The longest shadow is of course the winter solstice, the shortest the summer solstice. Using a simple pile of rocks or marks on a stick one could count the days between them, use half the marks or half the stones to count to the equinox.

Pretty simple.

Calendar - Does sighting the barley start the year?

This subject has been coming up lately and these are my notes about using the barley to start the year...

Calendar - The first Month and the Feasts in Season

Is January the first month? or spring? or green ears, Aviv?

The Bible Calendar...What time is it?

Ever wonder what system the Bible uses to determine an hour, day, month and year?
