the day the lord died

I cruised this thread out of curiosity and noticed a couple of things which were not mentioned but which might have some bearing on the issue.A Jew writing to non-Jews might say something like, "Sabbath of the Jews" to indicate that it was kept according to the sacred lunar calendar wherein Shabat is celebrated, not on Saturday but on the new moon, and on the seventh day after new moon (first quarter), the fourteenth day after new moon (full moon), and the twenty first day after new moon (third quarter).We call them months is because they were originally synchronized with phases of the moon.Thus, Passover occurs on the seventh day after the first new moon of spring. Indeed, the entire week is sacred, but the really big party starts on the evening of the seventh; what we might call the evening of the sixth. Historically, the Jews have suffered a lot of grief in an attempt to honor the holy lunar timetable.If you'd like to be really confused, try synchronizing the lunar calendar with the solar calendar. That was one of the primary duties of ancient astronomers. That's why they were paid the Big Bucks!db------------------

I am working on something to put up at my website. Should be ready after the weekend.BTW, I visited your site and found it difficult to read the dark red text on the black background. I wear trifocals but I'll bet I'm not the only one who has mentioned this, yes?My website is new, and I am redoing a lot of my work to make it more accessible. Feel free to stop by and take a peek.http://www.sun-day-school.usdb

Thanks for the heads up. Thought I had set it up to allow Netscape.When you say "crashes" do you mean that your screen locked up? You get knocked offline? You lose the link? What?db

Beats the heck outa me! I wondered why there was so much code. I am a greenhorn when it come to all that. Been working with MS Front Page. It's back to the books for sure. Thanks for all the tips.db------------------

Thanks again for your help John.I am redoing the site for a number of reasons and am curious whether you have any problems with it as it stands today.I have found that it is easier and more effective to upload from yahoo's file manager than from Front Page itself. You are not the first person who has expressed criticism of FP and there do seem to be some glitches but I certainly enjoy the creative potential which it offers.dbhttp://www.sun-day-school.us

Dangit!I finally got them to display for me. Now you can't see them!?Thought I'd done everything according to Hoyle.Thanks for the tip.Now, Back to the drawing boards.db
