"The decoding reveals more about the sect’s calendar, they said—that it begins on a Wednesday, which was when all holidays were celebrated..."

Eisenman and Wise should have a smile today (Dead Sea Scrolls Uncovered).

PLZ note also the referenced quote above from the article: Wednesday was when all holidays were celebrated. Let's see...Tuesday night, Wednesday, that's one. Wednesday night, Thursday, that's two. Thursday night, Friday, that's three days and three nights...

"Destroy this Temple and in three days I will raise it up."

The Solar Calendar of 364 days was to be instituted by the Qumran Group if they came to power. They also used the Mishmarot Rotations as a check against false Holy Days reckoning by the Jerusalem Clique.

What happened at the 4 BCE Passover? I wonder...
