Your whole argument here rests on putting the Psalm to music and then getting creative with how they relate to each other because you think it fits better. I find this very unconvincing.
It may interest you to know that scripture in its original language has a poetic structure that flows through nearly every passage - complete with rhythmic word puns and rhymes. It's something we lose when translated into other languages like English.

So literary devices like what's in Psalm 81 aren't the exception, but the rule. In fact, most of the psalms written by King David are poetic.

If one were to go by the first visible crescent this month, it is March 19, at 3.1%. Since division of days are reckoned from evening to evening, New Moon day (the daylight portion) is March 20th. Day 1 of new lunar month. Counting to 14 places Passover on the evening of the 2nd of April, which is a Monday.
You can go back and redefine your New Moon even two days when there isn't one. Even if you do this, at the very earliest passover would fall on a Saturday.
Yes If you mean "Passover" as in "the feast of unleavened bread", then that would just make next Monday the holiday this year. But if you mean "Passover" as in "the preparation day before the feast", then the preparation would fall on the prior work day: this coming Sunday this year...meaning the Day of First Fruits will be on the following Sunday.

With every new day, new month and new year being determined by sight and not by calculation it means the feasts are never guaranteed to be on the same day of the week each year, teaching us to humble ourselves and follow God's lead for all time, all the time.

Anyway, for those who insist a New Moon is Dark or first visible crescent, you can believe that, but count 14 days and you'll wind up later than Friday the 30th, the day you are celebrating passover. .
Agreed, we are to follow our Father's calendar as instructed in scripture not man's calendar...but as you know, it was prophesied in Daniel 7:25 that the "little horn" would seek to change times (calendar) and laws (commandments) as it persecutes God's people, and has indeed done so. So it won't match the Gregorian or Jewish calendar every year.

But yes, this Friday wouldn't be considered the 30th of the month if we followed the sighting, but properly the 12th of the month.

Right. A pillar of fire to give them light. Not the moon. Remember this is the first passover. If the moon was full, they wouldn't need an extra light source so they could see, now would they?
The pillar of fire was leading them. Read the text. Even if the full moon was visible, the extra light from the pillar of fire would have aided their ability to see in the night, so I am not sure what point you are trying to make, since it is not the moon they were following.

Resurrection Sunday, or Easter as some people call it, is also determined by the phase of the moon, being set to be recognized/celebrated on the first Sunday following the first full moon after the vernal equinox.

It was Tuesday, don't matter No one knows today.
However we do know that Scriptures are TRUE. Scriptures teach that Jesus Christ rose on the first day of the week. Scriptures also teach that Jesus was in the heart of the Earth three days and three nights. These things are TRUE, and are most certainly Scriptural.

Thursday already should have won.

I don't understand what you people are doing.

Days ; Thursday, Friday, Saturday
Nights; Thursday, Friday, Saturday

Resurrection on Sunday. Everything is right with the world.
What you are not understanding, is that Wednesday evening at 6 pm is the start of Thursday. Jesus was crucified on Wednesday, He died at 3pm Wednesday. 3 hours later at 6 PM, Thursday started, this Thursday was a High Sabbath.

The first day of the week, started Saturday evening at 6 PM. Jesus Rose from the Grave sometime between 6 PM and Midnight, which is the first day of the week.

Luke gives us all the information needed to know precisely when He died. There are very reliable secular histories that have no interest in deception that ell us about the men and events Luke mentions.

From what Luke tells us, we can be certain that Jesus was born in 5 B.C.

that means that Jesus turned 30 in 25A.D.

The Passover of His death is known to be the third of His earthly ministry.

Therefore we know He died in 28 A.D. Astronomical calculations show that 14Abib, 28 A.D. was a Thursday.
Thursday according to us or the Jews? Our Thursdays start at Midnight. Their Thursdays start on WEDNESDAY at 6 PM.

the Sabbath ended at sunset on what we would call Saturday. sunday morning is still sun. morning, early in the morning , Matthew uses the word dawn, which means what it says, so the sda/ Hebrew roots theory is a long stretch, with a lot of assumptions. so, we can assume another Hebrew roots fail.

The Creator's days start and end at sunset. Not any pre-determined time 6pm or 12midnight. Sunset happens at a different time evey day, it changes by a few minutes every day.

I personally would not put very much weight in a computer program to be absolute truth, it should be viewed as just a mere novelty, because the algorithm of the program doesn't take in account for the fluctuation of time. Which is constantly in a state of fluctuation, God created the universe and everything in it to be so. Like a odd ball 4 leaf clover in a field full of 3 leaf clovers perfectly imperfect. the universe is that as well. As we are too that slight imperfection in us is our free will to choose. If God created us to be perfect there wouldn't have been any disobeying in the garden.

A 24 hour day is not exactly 24 hours it changes alittle, the moon cycle is not 29 days, it's about 29.53 days and is not constant some months it might be 29.51 the next month 29.54 and so on. Our year is not always 365.25 days that changes as well. these changes in time as we know it are from gravitonal push and pull in our solar system and universe on planet's, Sun's, nebulae's galaxies etc.

lets say the moon cycle was just a mere 10 seconds off of being exactly 29 days a month instead of 12 hours and a few minutes off from being exact 29 days or 30 days. In 1 year that is 2 mins, In 30 years the lunar calendar would be off by 1 hour, in 720 years that equals to 1 full day off and that is with just a mere 10 seconds off.

the gregorian calander has 4 week months mostly with 12 months a year with seven named days that repeat ever week and which it does with not accounting for the fluciation of daily time. Right now our day light time is increasing by 3 minutes a day until the longest day of the year then it reverses and we loose 3 mins a day, yes all that happens within a 24 hour period but the 24 hour period isn't exact it as well fluxiates.

to try and go back in time to line up the gregorian/Julian calendar with rather using the updated Jewish calendar or the older lunar calendar either one doesn't matter, the algorithm used are flawed because there is to much fluctuation in time itself by design from our creator.

I believe the best anyone can say is this, such and such happened on the 14th Abib and on the first day of the week such and such happened in their time not ours.

i think there is a bigger meaning to why we should not look back like this about time, IMO God doesn't want us to be concerned about what exactly the day was on the Gregorian/Julian calendar, but to focus on what is ahead not behind as far as time goes. it cannot be calculated to much fluctuation for it to be completely correct and the truth. God knows which exact day on the Julian calendar it was in that time of history we don't nor could we.
The Biblical calendar has had two minor adjustments which have been well documented.

The Julian and Gregorian calendars have had several adjustments which are also well documented. Because the Biblical calendar is internally adjusted to not allow it to be more than a day out of sync with the solar calendar and that day is adjusted out every 68 years; the fluctuations in time are compensated for, with respect to determining the Gregorian day of the week of any given Biblical date.

The fact that Jesus died on Friday and rose again on Sunday is proven by the fact that the women waited with their spices until the Sabbath day was over. They would have waited the shortest possible time.

The Creator's days start and end at sunset. Not any pre-determined time 6pm or 12midnight. Sunset happens at a different time evey day, it changes by a few minutes every day.
You are absolutely correct, i am wrong. From now on when referring to this topic, i will not say 6pm or midnight, but will indeed say sunset. Thank you for correcting me on this matter. :)

The fact that Jesus died on Friday and rose again on Sunday is proven by the fact that the women waited with their spices until the Sabbath day was over. They would have waited the shortest possible time.
If Jesus died on Friday and rose on Sunday, then Jesus Christ is a Liar. He plainly said He would be in the heart of the Earth for three days and three nights. Do you think Jesus is a liar? or maybe what you believe is wrong, and Jesus did not lie.
