Exposing Ellen White - Calman and Snow - 7th Day Adventist lies April 8, 2023
The letter by E. S. Calman:
Mr. Editor: I have been requested by a friend to write a few lines for your paper on the subject of the Jewish mode of reckoning time. I am a descendant of the ancient Karaite Jews, who have always rejected the authority of the Rabbins, and have ever considered the Old Testament as the only rule of our faith. We believe that the Scriptures teach us plainly when we should observe the Passover. We keep it on the same month that the Jews do; but we reckon the commencement of that month differently from them. They commence their month at the change or dark moon; we commence ours at the first sight of the new moon. The Rabbinical Jews have a great many traditions which they follow in preference to the Scriptures. They have a set of astronomical tables by which they calculate their feasts; but we follow nature as our guide. We believe that barley should be ripe before we keep our Passover; and if it is not ripe, we put off our feast one month that year. This makes occasionally a difference of one month between us and them. This was the case in 1843. The Rabbinical Jews kept their Passover one month before we did; and consequently their seventh month was one month earlier than ours. The Rabbinical Jews commenced their seventh month on September 12th, 1843; but we did not commence ours until October 13th. The tenth day of our seventh month will be October 22d, which will be the true Day of Atonement for this year.
We have no leap year as often as other Jews have. They have seven leap years in nineteen years; but we have only six in nineteen years. We never put in an embolismic or thirteenth month until after two common years; but they sometimes put it in after one common year. This makes a difference sometimes between us and them of one whole month.
The Rabbinical Jews reckon their time from sunset to sunset; but we reckon ours from sunrise to sunrise. Consequently our Day of Atonement will commence on Monday morning at sunrise, October 21st, and will end on Tuesday morning at sunrise, October 22d.
I am fully convinced that Br. Miller's calculation of the prophetic periods is correct; and I believe that every Karaite Jew in this city is of my opinion.
Yours respectfully,
E. S. Calman
