These are dates of this
year's Holidays according to the true Biblical Calendar, based on the Abib (ripening
barley) and crescent New Moon.
This schedule is IF "abib" is found by March 11th,
2005. If "abib" is not found we will have a 13th month and there will
be a different schedule. See the Karaite’s website for information about Abib (barley) http://www.karaite-korner.org/abib.shtml.
