This outfit certainly looks like they are taking a step in the right direction!

Their flavor of following Yah might be a bit more palatable than some of the flavors served by Yada.

Tagim,

You don't need advanced knowledge of the Torah to be able to discern what is true. Yahuwah tells us that the Torah is trustworthy and reliable, making understanding simple for the open minded.

That said, the site you referenced has some major errors in their "Principles and Statements of Faith". They also have errors in the FAQ section. I think you will get much more out of reading and studying from Yada Yahweh. This group doesn't hold a candle to what Yada Yahweh can help you with. I would recommend spending your time researching what Yada Yahweh has presented. I think it will be much more fullfilling for you.

I have read things in Yada Yahweh that have shook me to my core and helped me completely change my perspective. I don't think this site will do that for you.

Noach, a quick glance at the statement of fact in no way serves justice to what I am talking about. I attempted on two previous replies to better describe TorahClass.com and what the classes all consisted of, but, alas, my posts went up into cyber space. Honestly, and in reality, the classes trace ancient Hebrew genealogy and customs minutely from creation. With all due respects, you could not have spent adequate time there and have come to a different conclusion. The classes are harshly critical of the church. In fact, he accuses the church of largely ignoring the Torah, and particularly the Sabbath, dozens and dozens of times. So, at least in that regard, pardon my criticism of you. At every stroke the lecturer stresses that simply reading the NT and attending services leaves the worshiper wholly inadequate and unprepared to learning or knowing Scripture, and of being unsaved, by merely relying upon Yah's son.

Conversely, as Daniel has said, the foundational points, the customs, lives of the Hebrews, the how and why the Hebrews changed over the many centuries, is minutely detailed and far easier to digest than a reading of YY. And that was to be my main thrust, as Daniel has so eloquently pointed out. I spent months readying YY, everything on the site with the exception of "Tea with Terrorists." I walked from Babylon, trusting Yada and KP, as I still do today. Albeit, all that reading will not equate with the step by step examination of the Hebrews as they lived during that time, their thoughts, habits, culture, sacrifices which governed their lives and how to behave as directed by Yah (when even the Torah had not yet been given to Mo). It explains how Yah shaped his people by patterns. And those patterns continued throughout their generations as directed by Yah. The result, when the Greek translated, or made attempts to, the Scriptures, they botched it big time. Greeks think in logic and ask "why." The Hebrew learned by rote and patterns.

Because I have spent an adequate amount of time attending these "classes," I will borrow from Yada to tell you, Noach, if you want to bequeath a valid criticism of the site, spend an adequate amount of time there and come back with specifics. I dare say you will be much more generous in your response. I have often expressed to others I refer to YY that I find not a shred of untruth in his writings. I can say the same for TorahClass.com. The lecturer is simply laying out a well planned, documented explanation of Torah that is easily understood. The lecturer has no agenda and one purpose: to teach Torah, and that is does.

Finally I say, as Daniel does, there are many here who can and should benefit from a thorough understanding of Torah. It is a disservice to out of hand dismiss the classes merely maybe because it is a part of "organized religion."

Wow, feels like an agenda here Tagim. I'm just saying. I am confused as to why you even asked for comments on it. It appears that you are very passionate about this website.

I didn't say it didn't have any value in my last post, but I will say it now. I don't think it has a shred of value if they can't even get the Messiah's name right. "Yeshua" is a rabbinic corruption, yet they promote like its correct. That's as far as I need to get.

The stuff they have wrong, I learned in five minutes on YY. It seems that you are more eager to defend this site at all costs, than listen to criticism of it. If you find value in it, fine, but I think that group would be better served coming to learn from YY.

Unfortunately that is beyond the scope of my ability. What I can say is when it has happened to me I have found that if you press the back button on your browser what you typed is usually still there. And I would recommend always copy what you have written before clicking the post button, just to be sure. It's frustrating I know, and I wish there was something I could do about it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Not trying to be mean, but there is plenty of GREAT GREAT stuff here to learn about Yah & Torah and don't think it's a good idea to learn what runs contrary to Yah's TRUTH
.
HIS PREFERENCE is to us YHWH, but still promotes using" The LORD" (his statement of belief shows this)
For someone that is still in christian church this is a step in the right direction towards TRUTH (got to start somewhere and I started my journey at the same type teachings before finding YY), but having arrived here - it's big big steps backwards
There are major problems with the beliefs he presents - more wrong than right

It's been frustrating to have to keep tossing out things I've learned, after discovering it wasn't based on Yah's truth - and then learn more untruths, and have to purge them.
It's taken years of wasted money & time & limited brain space
Removing false understandings isn't easy as they get ingrained in our thought processes in ways you don't realize
You've arrived at a place that has LOTS & LOTS of good wholesome ingredients - don't want to see you eat poisoned & spoiled stuff and deal with the cramps and other stuff from eating bad stuff

If you want something easier to grasp and what is being presented @ YY - people here can give you some suggestions on other books and sites - it's not a YY only thing
Maybe even start with KPs writings on Torah - he will show you what the Jewish religious leaders to corrupt Yah's Torah



To fix the posting problem - write your post on word, then copy & paste it here
What seems to happen is that when you have a post window open for awhile - a timer logs you out, which makes the posting fail since an unlogged in person can't post
Also what can be done is when you goto post - reopen YY forum in a new tab and make sure you are logged in before you goto post

NO
Because that's NOT what I think - I should lie????
I think it would be better to keep my opinions to myself

With your reasoning - Yada shouldn't have written his writings because they are to bold with truth - he should have blended it with religious bs

Bottom line - I won't recommenced poison seeds - you can say I'm wrong all you want - Yahushua didn't, He unapologetically spoke TRUTHS and angered many many many people

Man, I wish we could sit around a table and talk together. The free flow of ideas and understanding would be priceless. Yahuwah would be right there with us. One day.

In the mean time, I have to pound away at this keyboard to make my thoughts come across. I’m terrible at typing.

Tagim/Daniel, there are certain basics that if a self promoted teacher of the Torah can’t figure out, would be very concerning to me. This group doesn’t seem to have a grasp of the basics. Their continued use and promotion of LORD and Jesus, especially from a group that claims to know the difference would make me question their priorities right off the bat. Their use and promotion of Yeshu(a) is downright sickening. Tagim, don’t be afraid to correct this teacher based on what you have learned from YY. If he brushes you off, especially regarding Messiah’s Name, I would definitely reconsider this groups motives. The truth is always more important than ideology.

Daniel, I wish I was strong minded, I’m not, but when it comes to Yahuwah, I am passionate, so is Walt. He took a wretch like me and showed me the way to Him and away from religion. There isn’t much time left. If people can’t deal with what you are teaching, there is nothing you can do about it. They have to change their perspective (metanoeo) before anything you say will sink in. Yahuwah was direct as possible with Abraham. There was no room baby steps. When He asked Abraham to walk with Him, it was a yes or no answer. Abraham didn’t need time to think about, or time to pack up his Christmas tree, or easter baskets. He chose wisely. The most loving and important thing we can do is present the truth bluntly. If it falls on deaf ears, move on.

There is no point in trying to learn something from a group, when you know more than them. One of the groups beliefs, is that the bible is the inerrant word of God, passed down with only minor translation errors. Tagim, based on what you have read in YY, you know this is a fallacy, a huge one. Why endure this type of error.

In the end, you have to do what you are comfortable with. If you enjoy and benefit from your Torah study with this group, wonderful, you can share what you have learned with us. You can also ask us for our opinions on their teachings. Since you asked us our opinions on the site, we have given them to you. I hope they have helped. None of my comments were critical of you, only of the site. I am happy you are with us in the YY forum.

It worked!

Thank you all, again, about how to get things right here. If all goes well on the next round, we might properly put an end to this thread, as it seems we four are the most and only interested; I will default to the rest. Yes, Roach, it would be just great to face your faces. I am sure there would be some hugs, too. Before I forget, I mentioned sometime ago about noticing posters with legends inviting to gather in the chat room. Is that a thing of the past, or still active. I tried PalTalk to get there, unsuccessfully. It is not important, just curious.

As I mentioned earlier, this forum is my first venture ever engaging in posting in a forum, and now the second time a controversial nature. The other one was circumcision. Well, I must fess up. I am 76 and uncircumcised. After much research, abundant help from members at large, I have made my decision. I see the surgeon Monday. Alas, he must first consult with me. I think I should bring my K-bar to the consultation. The only thing I hope to accomplish from that meeting is to convince him he should be paid from my insurance carrier. I should have called a Moyle. Anyway, pray Yah, that is a done deal. The other thing that constantly grieves me, causes endless pain and anxiety, is my relations with friends and family. More fess up.

From a toddler to when I left to join the Marines during the Korean War (the one we are to forget about, the “Forgotten War,” I grew up in an area euphemistically called The South Bronx, about a couple miles southeast of the Yankee Stadium. We were predominantly Irish Catholic, hated Jews and Nig*&^s and spics. The apartment I lived there can be seen in the film, “Fort Apache, The Bronx” in the scene where one is thrown from my rooftop by the police. It was like that and more. By age 16 I was ejected from the all male Bronx Vocational High School. I should have been incarcerated for many years for my deeds, but wrongfully I spent merely a half dozen one night or more stands in jail. I confessed these sins to priests numerous time throughout the years to the tune of more than a hundred hail mary's, our Father(s) and act of contrition(s), because my gut has never felt right since. If I could see those priests today, I would wring their necks like sponges. And that would only scratch the surface of my anger. I left that environment and mindset of evil many years ago, but the anguish and hurt I have caused lives still within me daily. I have not been able to feel “clean,” still through Yah's son, while knowing only he can do that. That is why this study of the Torah is so important to me. There was no redemption for me at that time; the transfer of duties from Mo to the 70, then exactly the same PATTERN of transfer to His Son, the customs and PATTERNS as directed by Yah of how to shape his people – all were done with specific plan and purpose in mind, always shown by PATTERNS. The Greek never recognized that Yah taught by PATTERNS and that is why we see what we see today. This is what I see pounded out chapter by chapter, book by book, “PATTERNS, PATTERNS, PATTERNS, people! Don't you get it? You learn from your Bibles to ask why as translated through Greek logic. Yah never taught in logic. YHWH taught in PATTERNS and you better get it! Otherwise you are doomed.”

DANIEL WROTE:
I will no longer send weak minded religious people straight to KP & Yada's web-books. Here is why: I direct them to The Owner's Manual, they start reading, scroll down the page, then see the link to Questioning Paul. They click on the link to QP and then KABOOM! The weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth begins because they say that I am telling them that Paul was an agent of Satan, or worse, a homo.


I did the same thing. The net result: I have lost all my friends, all my relatives, and three of my five children. Even my closest in-law friend whom I thought I could approach and did will no longer allow contact and professes I have joined a cult. I am in the process of being in better relations with two of the three lost-to-me children and with your help I will succeed. All their ages are 50, 47, 44, twins 20. And this is after my third marriage now of more than 30 years. And now that I have your commitment to help I expect to hold you to that promise, and I will need your help. The 47-year old male is a 30-year prominent CC pastor in Los Angeles and we have agreed to dialogue. His guns are ready, mine are not. He has been to YY and is anxious to commence the dialogue.

Well, I have already given you too much of me to chew on; I am satisfied with what I have received, your promise. I have downloaded The Word, including some modules. Now I must spend countless more hours cleaning out my hard disk so I can organize and utilize the package.

I did have more to say in defense of this Hebrew/Jewish/Christian fellow, but I will not except brief mention below as at this point is now unnecessary. What I do is sneak onto the site, go down the hall to the classes and play them. Mind you, why I defend him so much is because he is all Torah, no “religious” overtone or pretext. If I were to package all his classes into what would become a very large book and lay it upon your desks, Walt and Roach, you would read it and say, “Good stuff. Nice reading,” because it is void of anything else he does outside of that class, all free. I just made assumptions that he has a Hebrew/Jewish/Christian congregation nearby. You would not see anything but a large novel as other respectful commentary people have done.

I not only respect your feelings on this matter (Roach and Walt), I think they are vital to this forum. I also appreciate and thank Daniel for given me breathing room. There is more than one way to skin a cat. I need to find the successful way, because thus far I have lost most everything. My wife now understands me, at least. Pray she joins with me as I will never change.

I will not post more on this subject as I think I have exhausted it, from my perspective, anyway. What I mean is, whoever reads this thread, sees a benefit/sees no benefit, should have had at least a full opportunity to choose. I have given and received.

If you read this, I was successful. If not, my computer will not last the night.

Nah, Rides, you are right, I beat it to death. Daniel or James can if desired move it elsewhere or keep it alive. I found this site, fell in love, read every thread of the forum, all books except one; now up to date, view the last posts and go from there. "Seek and you will find ..." all others wait for the welfare truck. New yes, but retired and able to put the time in, and I do. Shalom

Well, Rides, maybe. On second thought I might consult with James.

If you are new to this thread, to understand its message, you must read it from the top, Feb. 1. James (moderator) did bifurcate it from another thread to start it here with its own title. It is controversial, but worth your time.

The matter is intended to reach neophytes and intermediaries in Torah and to give them the opportunity to grasp what is so desperately needed in life, a firm foundation in Torah.

For placing TORAH CLASS here I received much warranted criticism as can be viewed in the above posts. However, I did and still do feel so strongly in my opinions stated, that YOU GO TO TORAH CLASS (neophytes and up) where you will get that needed foundation. Some here, I perceive, utilize this board as a chess game, most to give of their knowledge, still others to gain knowledge. TorahClass.com is the place to gain Torah knowledge. Whatever your purpose here, if you take the classes there (free, on line), you will be able to come back and do battle with the Giants, as did David, also to give more to those in need.

EncounterHim, I told you you would love it. I guaranteed it. These GIANTS here are great people and will protect you always, even while being critical. Remember, it will be your biggest pleasure when you have the good knowledge they are so very eager to impart to you and anyone else on this forum. It is obvious they have lived with it for a very long, long time. It is all you can hope for to know what they know and to then, as they do, give.

I am happy for you and your wife for taking my advise by attending these classes. Keep posting here on your evaluation and progress. You and your wife will love being here in this forum, I GUARANTEE IT. In my searching, I have found no better grouping of humans gathered in one place, with Yada and Ken Power sitting as Chief Priests sitting right at the Tabernacle door. Welcome!

Thank you for your concern, Richard. Today was that consult day; you know two billings. I am to be called for the main event on their first available opening.

Perfect place for the not so ambulatory; pc replaces the tv screen. It is a good show.

Link still appears to be a problem.

So you have elected to not go the DIY route with the sharpened K-bar...

Been there, done that. Most painful injection I've ever had, it really stung.

Have fun though.

Well everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and I suppose what one considers minor, is an opinion. That said I would disagree with this statement entirely. Many if not most of the "revisions", I call them men usurping God's authority and copy editing His Word, are far from minor.

Further more if they are so minor, why were they made, and why do we not correct them?

Is replacing Yah's name with the adversaries title, LORD, minor, well I guess it is a matter of opinion, but given the fact that he gave us His name an average of seven times per page, I would say that it is not minor to him.

Further more, the corruption of the text is not just in word changes, that we now know where made, it was in the vocalization added by religious rabbis. These vocalizations change, minimize and alter the meaning of many words, and are used as a way to control understanding.

Further, further more our translation serve to butcher the text even more.

So to claim that the modern English translations are even close to 100% faithful to the text from which they were derived, is just patently false.

But don't take my word for, buy a copy of the DSS bible, one which shows the variations in it, and see what the changes made were.

I don't think that is what is being said by Mr. Torahclass. I took his meaning to be that the text of the Tannakh (what you Christians call the Old Testament) matches up quite nicely between the DSS and [Codex Lenningradus], with minor variations. (In Sunny's quotation, he doesn't actually cite CL, but I think that is what he would be talking about.)

He is also not going into how the MT really tweaked the text, hard, to make it look like Our Guy was not MessiYah. To be fair, the MT is a (written) vocalization, not a 'text' to be used in terms of a like-for-like 'textual comparison'.

Brother James is quite right in pointing out that the English translations of the Apostolic Writings are no where near as reliably transmitted as the text of the Tannakh. It is painfully obvious that the "New Testament" translators are trying to make is look as though Our Guy wasn't Jewish.



To be fair, my copy of DSS has a 'translator's notes' page at the very front that says words to the effect of: 'out of respect for the Jewish tradition, when YHWH is found in the text it is rendered as LORD... '

Mr. Torahclass may be oversimplifying a little too much, but I think he is trying to make the point that the textual transmission of the Tannakh is much more reliable than that of the Apostolic Writings.

To his credit, at least he is not telling Jews that they must follow "Jesus" and join him after "Sunday worship services for the bar-b-que (pork) picnic". Mr. Torahclass is trying to 'get it right' and is light-years closer to the way things were back in the first century than 99.999% of all christians. He may not express things just the way a Seventh-Degree YY'er would, but at least he is trying! (I still plan to visit him, later this year.)

Let's not be the 'army' that shoots its own 'wounded'!

Hey, at least he is saying that the text has been 'redacted'!

Most of christendom believes that the 'bible' was written in 17th century English, and accuse you of being in a cult for even suggesting that there is any variation among the texts.

BTW: It really makes me bat-excrement-crazy when I hear people praying in "King James English"!

Mr. Torahclass is taking (and encouraging others to take) 'baby steps'. More is the pity!

Bill, I'd like to hear what you think, sir!

Hi, Bill.

My wife and I watched the initial video and we enjoyed it (with reservations). However, I must take my stand with Noach and Walt regarding the site's "Statement of Faith." Also, whenever I see or hear someone referring to our Father as "G-d", "the LORD", "YVHV", "Jehovah", etc., I just close my eyes, shake me head, and get away from them as fast as I can. As for those who cannot deal with the truth when it is presented as absolute fact, if they are truly seeking Yahuwah then they will feel His inner urging to return over and over again until their understanding is finally opened. I know, because that is what happened to me, especially as regards Saul of Tarsus. So if someone insists that they are a teacher of Yahuwah's Torah, yet they don't know enough to proclaim and use His Name, I must conclude that they do not know Him very well at all.

Rather than following any more of the lessons at TorahClass.com, my wife and I have decided to focus our studies on Yada's latest version of Yada Yahweh. If time remains and Yahuwah wills that we live, we shall dive into Ken's The Owner's Manual. I have already read much of these on my own, but now my wife has "gotten the bug" and I am excited about accompanying her from the beginning. That leaves no time at all, in my judgment, for anyone even remotely leaning towards religion.

Daniel, I love you, man, but I cannot accept the "celebrate the differences" line. It sounds spineless and mewly (is that a word?). Now, I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are neither of those, so it puzzles me that you fly that banner. I mean, it just sounds so ... liberal, like President Carter's naive question, "Can't we all just get along?" Hell, no! We stand with Yahuwah! Period. He Himself commanded us not to tolerate false teachers, idolaters, etc. I personally do not believe He accepts grey; to our Father, things are black or white, right or wrong, hot or cold. Did He not say exactly that? "Because you are neither hot nor cold, I will spew you out of My mouth." Where is the "celebrate the differences" in that, Daniel? I wouldn't go on like this were I not so stunned that you, of all people, would push that stand.

Anyway, may each of us have a peaceful Sabbath with Yahushua and Dad.

Richard

You are absolutely right, Daniel, it was Rodney King who said that! Now why was I laboring under the mistaken idea that it was the evil Mr. Carter, that devil who always supports our nation's enemies? Whatever. I stand corrected.

And I was wrong again about your tag line, too. I guess my impression was that you're saying to embrace the differences, i.e., be tolerant. So my take on what you said is not what you actually said. There is a lesson in there somewhere.

Anyway, thanks for pointing out to me where I was wrong. No, wait, that's not redneck macho enough. Let's go with, "Hey! You wanna step outside and DISCUSS it?" :D

Peace to you all on this Sabbath day.

Richard

As for the Torah Class, I have been reading it; I am only near the end of Exodus right now. I am learning a lot, and it is very easy-to-read. I think it is good for my friends to read it, because I think they will understand it; for some reason even my college-educated friends seem to find Yada's writing extremely difficult to understand, and therefore, they don't read much of it. I see the Torah Class folks discuss the fact that Yahowah's name has sadly been edited out of the translations, but yet they continue to use the term "Lord", etc. I will be sending them some of my (our) thoughts about this.

Has Yada posted any updates to YY yet? On the YY website, I do not see anything dated later than May, 2010.

By the way, anyone know if the barley is aviv? Is it possible that Passover will begin on March 20?

I was also wondering if Yahowah had warned the Japanese of this earthquake beforehand?

Shalom

I must say, "Im loving every second." Torah Class is just what this ole boy needed. And the reason for it is because when my dad died and we got him into the ground, I went driving by myself through the countryside. Wondering not so much as to why my brother hadn't attended the service, bc I knew his Jehovah Witness religion wouldn't be condusive with a Church of Christ setting. But just wondering what his feelings were, I called him. We were talking about our father and our upbringing. Now my brothers been in a wheelchair since I was in the 6th grade. He was in that hippie generation. We were all christians that attended our local C of C service and most still do. My brother back in the 60's decided he'd had enough and started rebelling in the worst way. Well to make a long story short. He was using drugs like LSD and selling also. When one night he'd ingested LSD and had a bad trip, my mom knew he was going nuts couldn't control him, herself. Well anyhow, that night my mom put him in a wheelchair bc he tried killing her with a buthchers knife when all us kids were sleeping. We were very lucky that she had my dads pistol and I'll leave it there. That's just to let you guys know a little of where i'm coming from in this letter. Sorry I'm not eloquent with my words. But this is how I came across YY. I pulled over on the dirt road and gave my brother that call. Now from the time he was put into that chair, it became a job for me to take care of my now crippled brother. My parents did all they could for him. My poor mom was just racked at what she HAD to do just to save the rest of us and not a one of us ever questioned her actions, for they were right in our minds. Well we all have a story, and I know mine was so I'd be there that day on that country road. I always have had an close relationship with my brother and his being in the chair hadn't changed that. What changed it was when he became a JW. Use to our perception of God from a C of C veiw, I felt he was being deceived. Well we just drifted in and out of our relationship. After growing up and marrying, my wife and I actually tried the Kingdom Hall a couple of times in efforts to mend some of our ways. Well it didn't take hold with us, so he and I drifted further apart. The phone call after our dads death(some 30yrs later) is where i'm going with this. I was on the verge of crying when I told him i couldn't anylonger feel like there was a god for me. I felt I'd never had any feeling whatsoever of His presence in my life and that if He does exist, Bubba, pray I find Him and He lets me know. Well of course my brother told me what he felt was Fathers name. I just couldn't feel it myself. I was looking for something physical i guess. Well weeks went by and I just shelved that conversation with my brother and continued in life as usual. Well after some time, I finally keyed into my computer, What's His name, or something like that. With no effort of mine, YY came across my screen. Now I'm a dummy when it comes to understanding written words. I sometime must re-read several times for it to soak in. For the life of me, I couldn't get enough of YY. Everyone else I introduced to it, and most are college grads, just couldn't understand it. For the life of me I couldn't understand how they couldn't grasp this mans words and a dummy like me could. My wife whom's worked for me and has been around me for 30yrs was getting freightened. She seriously thought I was about to put on sandels and start a walk to Jerusalem. This stuff that college grads couldn't grasp, was putting me into a world others knew nothing of. Couldn't get enough of it. So slowly, my wife started reading over my shoulder out of couriousity, and probably mose concern for me than anythng else. Well thank Yahuah she did. We both re-read the entire book along with Kens, FH and alot of his, TOM. And then it happened for the both of us. Tagim, can't thank you sir enough. Torah class is bringing it all together for us. While I can't for the life of me grasp howcome some can't seem to understand Yadas words, I can only thank My Father YHWH for bringing me to the truth. My brothers prayer must have been heard. He might be sorry though, I've loaded his e-mails with all the deceptions, and guess what? No re-ply!
Well that's a little of who and what I am and how I came to understanding. Thank you brothers and sisters. I feell I will be searching for all my life, but with this foundation I'm now building on, thanks to tagim, I can finally settle down some. Thank you again! And one day, if I can bring my brother who's now is now turning 60, out of religion, he might be my brother in Yahushua. For now I believe he's locked into it and will not hear another.

Shalom Lassie1865,

According to Paleotimes and Karaite-Korner, the barley is not abib in Israel.

Jerusalem, Israel
No Aviv Barley, New Moon of Thirteenth Month Sighted
On March 6, 2011 the barley we examined in the Judean Desert and Jordan Valley was nowhere near Aviv. These are locations the barley is known from previous years to ripen earliest. The barley was mostly in the vegetative state but we also found large amounts of barley that had just flowered (cotton-stage). This is consistent with our findings on Friday March 4, 2011 in the northern Negev. The lack of Aviv barley means the new moon on April 4, 2011 will be the beginning of the Hebrew year and Chag HaMatzot (Feast of Unleavened Bread) will begin at sunset on April 18, 2011.
The new moon of the Thirteenth Biblical Month was sighted on March 6, 2011. It was first sighted from Kefar Eldad by Bruce Brill at 6:03pm and then from Jerusalem at 6:11pm by David Cachicas followed shortly thereafter by Willie Ondricek, Keith Johnson, Nehemia Gordon, Devorah Gordon, Daniella Cachicas, Yoel Halevi, Pat Skewes, and Miri Burgin.
