YHWH establishes a new covenant
Genesis 9:8-17, Jubilees 6:15-16
God spoke to Noah and his sons who were with him and said, “Look, I am now establishing my covenant with you and with your descendants after you, and with every living creature that is with you—the birds, the cattle, and every wild animal of the earth with you—all that came out of the ark, every beast on the earth. I will establish my covenant with you: never again will all flesh be wiped out by the waters of a flood, and there will never again be a flood to destroy the earth.”

God also said, “This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all generations to come: I am placing my bow in the clouds, and it will be a sign of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the bow appears in the cloud, I will remember my covenant between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. The bow will appear in the clouds, and I will look at it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.”

Then God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

Feast of Weeks established
Jubilees 6:17-38
For this reason, it is ordained and written on the heavenly tablets that the feast of weeks should be celebrated each year in this month, to renew the covenant annually. This entire festival was celebrated in heaven from the time of creation until the days of Noah—26 jubilees and 5 weeks of years. Noah and his sons observed it for 7 jubilees and 1 week of years, until Noah’s death. After he died, his sons abandoned it until the time of Abraham, and during that period, they ate blood. But Abraham kept the feast, as did Isaac, Jacob, and his children up to your time. In your time, the children of Israel forgot it until you renewed its observance on this mountain.

The Lord said, “And command the children of Israel to keep this festival throughout all their generations as a commandment for them: 1 day each year, in this month, they are to celebrate the festival. It is the feast of weeks and the feast of first fruits. This feast has a dual purpose and a double significance. Celebrate it according to what is written and engraved about it. I wrote it in the first book of the law—the one I wrote for you—that you should celebrate it at its appointed time, 1 day each year. I also explained to you the sacrifices associated with it, so the children of Israel would remember and observe it each year in this month, 1 day every year.”

On the new moon of the 1st month, the 4th month, the 7th month, and the 10th month are the days of remembrance and the seasonal divisions of the year. These dates are recorded and ordained as a lasting testimony.

Noah established these for himself as feasts for future generations, and they became a memorial to him. On the new moon of the 1st month, he was commanded to build the ark. On that same day, the earth became dry, and he opened the ark and saw the ground. On the new moon of the 4th month, the underground springs were sealed. On the new moon of the 7th month, all the springs of the deep were opened, and the waters began to drain back into them. On the new moon of the 10th month, the mountain tops became visible, and Noah rejoiced. Because of all this, he established those dates as memorial feasts forever, and so they are ordained.

These events were recorded on the heavenly tablets. Each period was 13 weeks long, and the memorial days passed from 1 to the next, from the 1st to the 2nd, from the 2nd to the 3rd, and from the 3rd to the 4th. Altogether, the commandments cover 52 weeks, completing the year. This is how it is engraved and ordained on the heavenly tablets.

There is no skipping this commandment—not for a single year, or from year to year. Command the children of Israel to count the years using this method: 364 days make up a full year. They must not alter its timing by shifting days or feasts, because everything will occur as it should according to this record. No day is to be missed, and no feast should be thrown off schedule.

But if they fail to observe this according to the commandment, they will throw off all their seasons. The years will fall out of order, the appointed times will become confused, and they will abandon the correct observances. All the children of Israel will lose track of the years, and forget the new moons, the seasons, the sabbaths, and they will misunderstand the calendar of the years. I know this, and now I declare it to you. This is not something I made up—the book lies open before me, and the division of days is ordained on the heavenly tablets. This will happen if they forget the covenant festivals and instead follow the festivals of the Gentiles in their error and ignorance.

Some people will certainly start observing the moon, and how it disrupts the seasons, arriving 10 days early each year. Because of this, they will throw off the yearly cycle, and declare abominable days as days of testimony, and make unclean days into feast days. They will confuse all the days—mixing the holy with the unclean, and the unclean with the holy. They will be mistaken about the months, sabbaths, feasts, and jubilees.

For this reason, I command and warn you to testify to them. After your death, your children will disrupt this order by failing to observe the year as 364 days. Because of this, they will go astray regarding the new moons, seasons, sabbaths, and festivals—and they will eat all kinds of blood with all kinds of flesh.
