Revelation 12:6, 14 This is because the sun is the sign used to determine the times, and not the moon. And on the fourth day He created the sun and the moon and the stars, and set them in the firmament of the heaven, to give light upon all the earth, and to rule over the day and the night, and divide the light from the darkness. And YHWH appointed the sun to be a great sign on the earth for days and for Shabbats and for months and for feasts and for years and for Shabbats of years and for jubilees and for all seasons of the years. And it divides the light from the darkness and for prosperity, that all things may prosper which shoot and grow on the earth. These three kinds He made on the fourth day. Jubilees 2:8-10 This Scripture tells us the same thing that is written in Bereshith 1:14-19. Here also, the moon is not mentioned as being used to determine days, months, years, Sabbaths, or Appointed Times. It is the presence or the absence of the sun that determines whether the sky is lit up with the greater light of the sun, or the lesser light of the moon and the stars that is seen when the sun is absent. So, the sun is the sign that determines the times.
YHWH’s Natural Calendar The Book of Enoch lays out the calendar. This is also the calendar referenced in Jubilees, and kept by the remnant assemblies throughout history. The course of the sun is what sets the days, months, years, Sabbaths, Festivals, and so on. Take the time to read and understand the Book of the Luminaries, starting in Enoch 72. This is the first commandment of the luminaries: The sun is a luminary whose egress is an opening of heaven, which is located in the direction of the east, and whose ingress is another opening of heaven, located in the west. I saw six openings through which the sun rises and six openings through which it sets. The moon also rises and sets through the same openings, and they are guided by the stars; together with those whom they lead, they are six in the east and six; in the west heaven. All of them, are arranged one after another in a constant order. There are many windows both to the left and the right of these openings. First, there goes out the great light whose name is the sun; its roundness is like the roundness of the sky; and it is totally filled with light and heat. The chariot on which it ascends is driven by the blowing wind. The sun sets in the sky in the west and returns by the northeast in order to go to the east; it is guided so that it shall reach the eastern gate and shine in the face of the sky. Enoch 72:2-5
