I realized that I left out some other vital pieces of information in proving that our current canon of the Bible does discuss a three hundred and sixty four day calendar.
- YHWH's Calendar is a seven day weekly calendar with a day being composed of evening and morning.
The day begins in the morning as God is Light and separated Himself from the Darkness: therefore He called the Light from Himself and separated it from the darkness. Since the sun rules over the day and is greater than the moon which rules over the night: it follows that Day is greater than the Night and appears first. Note that Day and Night are never to be mixed: therefore Morning = Sunrise and Evening = Sunset. It follows that the day begins in the morning as the evening is the end of the day. (Genesis 1:5, 8, 13, 19, 23, 31; 2:2-3 Cf. Exodus 16:22-27, Leviticus 7:25). If anyone disagrees with this then please keep in mind that Moses wrote the Torah and understood that the day begins in the morning.
- The first day of the first month of the year begins on the fourth day of the week (Genesis 1:14-19).
- The calendar begins in the spring as the heavenly lights were created one day after the grass, herbs, and fruit trees sprung forth from the ground (Genesis 1:9-19).
- Each month is composed of an average of thirty days (Genesis 7:24; 8:3).
- There are twelve months in the year according to king David (1 Chronicles 27:1-15).
Now when we do the math we see:
12 Months x 30 Days = 360 Days
But how can we prove that our current canon supports a three hundred and sixty four day calendar?

We can deduce that each month has alternating weeks of {4, 5, 4} per season which gives us thirteen weeks a season so, doing the math again:
13 Weeks x 4 Seasons = 52 Weeks! But why is this possible? How can we submit mathematical proofs? Remember that the very first week in Genesis 1:1-2:2-3 starts the count of weeks. Leviticus supports my theory:
"And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete: Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the Lord."
-Leviticus 23:15-16
The key phrases are "And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath[...] seven sabbaths shall be complete: Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days": for the Feast of Shavuot as we know begins on the fifteenth day of the third month which is the first day of the week (i.e. Sunday); and, when we count back fifty days we reach the twenty sixth day of the first month: so, we have officially found where we are to begin and end our count for the Feast of Shavuot. The reason why this is correct is that if we begin counting on the twenty second day of the first month which is one day after the sabbath of the Feast of Unleavened Bread: fifty days later would bring us to the twelfth day of the third month: this falls on the fifth day of the week which is five days after the weekly sabbath which is not the morrow after the seventh sabbath has been completed. We wrongly count a week as being any period of seven days: YHWH always counts the week beginning from the first day of the week to the seventh day of the week (i.e. Sunday morning to Saturday morning). This calculation is true because we are told to count seven sabbaths not, any sequence of seven days. According to this reckoning:
1 Week = Days 1-7
1 Week x 52 = 52 Weeks
We have fifty two weeks in a year not because:
365 Days/7 Days = ~52 Weeks
or
13 Months x 4 Weeks = 52 Weeks
...but because...
52 Sabbath Weeks = 52 Weeks
...this means that...
52 Weeks x 7 Days = 364 Days/Year
52 Weeks / 4 Seasons = 13 Weeks/Season
13 Weeks x 7 Days = 91 Days/Season
91 Days x 4 Seasons = 364 Days/Year
13 Weeks x 4 Seasons = 52 Weeks/Year
1 Year = 4 Seasons = 12 Months = 52 weeks = 364 Days
If this is true then why are the four extra days not counted in the twelve months? They are intercalary days meaning that they are inserted at the end of each of the four seasons: 1) Spring, 2) Summer, 3) Autumn, and 4) Winter.
We now have conclusive evidence that YHWH in the Tanakh has established a solar calendar of 364 Days: and now we have 1 Enoch and Jubilees as supplemental proofs.
I hope you find this information to be very fruitful in your service to God through your research and work.
