Refer to Chapter 14 of Bible Prophecy Secrets for details on how to observe both the Spirit of God’s Law and the Letter of His Law as it pertains to the Holy Days. You can download the first three chapters for free, or access the full-length book here: https://www.bibleprophecyunlocked.com/​​

Note: The previous year (5860) is a 13-Month Year (as opposed to 12 months). due to [1] the wild (not domestic) barley in the land of Israel not being in the state of “Abib” with [2] at least one omer (two liters) of barley grain that is able to be collected from an open field of wild barley [3] at the end of the 12th Hebrew Month. Therefore, a 13th Month was declared in 5860.

Also, the dates provided for any future new moons are only estimates because we must always practice looking for physical confirmation of a new moon sighting with the naked eye in order to begin each month.

󠀠🌾 Barley Update on 16-Feb-2026 ➤

Becca Biderman, our most reliable witness living in the Land of Israel, has been sharing regular updates regarding the state of the wild barley on her YouTube channel. She posted a video from two days ago confirming that the barley is developing fruiting heads at this time. Click here to watch her video: “Wild barley in Jezreel Valley 2/16/2026”.

At the current rate, we should absolutely be expecting this current year to have 12 months, and a 13th month intercalation will not necessary. This means that the anticipated New Moon date of March 20th will begin the New Year. Of course, we must wait for confirmation of (1) the barley and (2) the New Moon sighting before making a firm declaration.
