Brains, Bibles & Beyond! Season 2, Episode 2: Understanding the Jewish Calander Have you ever wondered why Passover, Pentecost, and the other biblical feasts seem to move around on our modern calendar? Or why understanding the Jewish calendar can unlock deeper insights into Scripture? In this episode of Brains, Bibles, & Beyond, we take a journey through the Jewish calendar and explore how God used sacred times and seasons to shape the life of Israel and ultimately point to Jesus Christ. We'll discuss lunar months, biblical feast days, the difference between the Jewish and Gregorian calendars, and why these ancient celebrations still matter for Christians today. Along the way, we'll examine how God's redemptive plan unfolds through the biblical calendar, what the feasts reveal about Christ, and whether modern believers should pay attention to these appointed times. Whether you're a Bible nerd, a history enthusiast, or just curious about the Jewish roots of the Christian faith, this episode will help you see God's timing in a whole new way. Join us as we discover that the biblical calendar is more than a way of counting days—it's a testimony to God's faithfulness, His plan of redemption, and His perfect timing.
