Thanks for your reply, PC.
Are you saying the medium never claimed to be channeling Jesus?

Are you saying you deduced the medium was channeling Jesus?
The festivals, at least, in the lunisolar calendar were Rosh Hashanah (New Year’s Day, Tishri 1), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement, Tishri 10), and Sukkoth (Feast of Tabernacles, Tishri 15).
Ka Apaz told you that {Aristeo's calendar system} would be implemented in the year 2001. Too bad that was another of her false prophecies.
PC,
passover always falls on the first full moon after the spring equinox, so no matter how you and your alleged spirit consultation argue, Jesus if crucified was crucified in teh spring. So something like Apr. 6
The Israelites came out of Egypt where they lived for 430 years.
What kind of calendars did the Egyptians use?
Did you know that Jesus Christ was not crucified during Passover?
Where is Cyrene?
Why is Simon “coming out of the country” to his way to Jerusalem?
About what time was it when Simon met the entourage of Jesus?
Got any evidence for this that isn't from your own website?
Libya.
Could be any number of reasons. People travel at all times of year. Perhaps he was nipping into town for some supplies.
Not possible to tell from the quoted text.
Horuscopes.
Did you know that Jesus Christ was not crucified during Passover? He was crucified more than two weeks after the Passover. Passover was held on the fourteenth day of the first month. He was crucified on the thirtieth of the first month. ...
.. So Simon was from Cyrene who went to Jerusalem for a pilgrimage (Exodus 23:15; Deuteronomy 16:16). He was at Jerusalem from the fourteenth to the twenty-first. After the festival, he must have visited some relatives going to the country. On his way back to Jerusalem, he met the entourage of Jesus.
Jesus was crucified on the thirtieth of the first month, 16 days after Passover. Did you know that because He was scourged 5,455 times, the three kilometers from His imprisonment inside Jerusalem at a fort took them three days and three nights to travel. ...

You are correct, Astreja. Cyrene was Libya. So Simon was from Cyrene who went to Jerusalem for a pilgrimage (Exodus 23:15; Deuteronomy 16:16). He was at Jerusalem from the fourteenth to the twenty-first. After the festival, he must have visited some relatives going to the country. On his way back to Jerusalem, he met the entourage of Jesus.
Jesus was crucified on the thirtieth of the first month, 16 days after Passover.
Did you know that because He was scourged 5,455 times, the three kilometers from His imprisonment inside Jerusalem at a fort took them three days and three nights to travel.
That is why when they met Simon of Cyrene on their way to the crucifixion site, they asked Simon to carry the cross.
They hurried up because there were two consecutive days of Sabbath coming (high day Sabbath on Friday and the regular weekly Saturday Sabbath).
Mark 15:25 states: “And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.” What is the third hour? That is 9am. By noon, Longinus lanced the dying Jesus to a certain death. So Simon of Cyrene must have met the entourage of Jesus about 8am and was asked to carry the cross.
Jesus was not crucified on Passover when there were many people present in Jerusalem because “there [would] be an uproar among the people” (Matthew 26:3-5; Mark 14:1-2; Luke 22:1-2).
So they imprisoned Jesus during the festival and after the pilgrims had left the city.
But how did they Set them?
My Bes guess is they used the Sekhmeter, an early form of Atumic clock, to establish a standard time throughout the Two Lands.
Where do you get this stuff? Leviticus 23 says that the Passover/Unleavened Bread shall be in the first month, and that same chapter says that Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur and Sukkoth will be in the seventh month. This was all pre-exile, and no mention of Tishri.
Dedication (Hanukah) is not in the Torah. It is referenced in the New Testament, although it merely says it was "in winter".
It is also referenced in the Book of Maccabees, which is held as non-canonical for most non-Catholic Christians.
And the idea that the Jews copied the date of Passover from the date of Easter? That's just weird.
That's interesting information, PC.
This is something you picked up in one of the seances?
Simon of Cyrene visited some relatives in the country?
Jesus was scourged 5,455 times?
I say “must have visited some relatives”. This is my opinion. We were not able to ask Ama what the purpose of Simon of Cyrene in the country was. What do you think?
Quite frankly, I think you've been getting off lightly by having people put most of the blame for this long-running farce on the old crone. To my way of thinking it's mainly down to you making up things and implying that she said them that's the real source of all this malarky.

These that I am sharing to you maybe new to you.
This first month is where Passover was. This was retained in the purely lunar calendar along with the Feast of the Dedication (John 10:22) when the Israelites adopted the Babylonian lunisolar calendar in the seventh century BC. When Jesus was crucified in 1 BC, the Israelites were using these two kinds of calendars but merged these into one in 358/359 AD in what it is today. When the Israelites reformed their calendar, they placed Passover and Feast of Unleavened Bread from Nisan 14 to 21. They moved the Fast of Esther in Nisan 15 to Adar 13. They also fixed the Feast of the Dedication (of the First Temple) now called Hanukkah to Kislev 25.
It was only in 358/358 AD that the Israelites fixed Passover in Nisan when they reformed their calendars, long after the crucifixion of Jesus.
