Englische Gereimbook

The Englisch Calendar (Englische Gereimbook) is dated from Creation, not the Birth of Jesus. It is a lunisolar calendar, with a 19-year Metonic Cycle that determines when to insert a leap month on the calendar. The months start the night of the new moon, and each day begins at sundown and ends at sundown the next day.

Year
The year is calculated based on the chronology of the Bible according to the Septuagint. As anyone knows, there is no such thing as Year 0. So the first year is Year 1 of Creation.

Adam was created in Year 1. In Year 2, he had completed 1 year of life, so he was 1 year old in Year 2. Therefore, when the Bible said he was 230 years old when his son Seth was born, that is Year 231.

To put this in a more easily analyzed chart:

If you look in this chart, everything comes from the Septuagint of Genesis 5. A few notes: Methuselah was 187, not 167 when his son Lamech was born. The Septuagint has 188 years of age for Lamech, while the Masoretic and Josephus had 182, and according to this investigation, the original was 182, so we will continue with that.

So that means Year 1, when time started, Adam was created. He died in 931 at 930, and lived to see Mahalalel grow up. Noah was born in 1657, and when he was 600, the Great Flood occurred, 2257 After Creation. (Remember, there is no year 0. The first year is Year 1).

The next chart takes us from Noah and the Flood to Abraham and the entry into Egypt.

Here we continue Noah who was born in the 1657th Year of Creation (there is no Year 0). Shem was 100 2 years after the Flood, so the Flood was when he was 98, so he was born when Noah was 502, in the 2159th Year of Creation (not 2158, because there is no Year 0).

The years are according to Genesis 11 in the Septuagint, because the Masoretic chronology was deflated in the 2nd Century AD to deflect Christian claims of Christ's position as Messiah.

So, according to this chart and the Septuagint, Abraham was born in 3489, and received the Promise of God, and a son when he was 100, Isaac, which means Isaac was born in 3589. When Isaac was 60, his son Jacob was born (3649). When Jacob was 130, Israel went into Egypt, which means the entry into Egypt was in 3779.

According to Exodus 12:40, the people of Israel would be in Canaan and Egypt 430 years. Half of this, 215 years, was already in Canaan due to Abraham leaving his fathers' land, so they were in Egypt 215 years. So, 3779 + 215 = 3994. So the Exodus took place in the 3994th Year of Creation, which was when Moses was 80. So Moses was born in 3914.

Solomon began to build his temple in the 480th year after Exodus. So 3994 + 480 = 4474. The Temple was begun in the 4474th Year of Creation and completed seven years later, in 4481 (4474 + 7). Rabboninc sources say it stood 410 years before being destroyed in 587 BC. King Solomon was 20 when he became King in -971 BC (commonly accepted year), meaning it began in -967 BC. So 4474 is 967 BC.

That means that Creation took place 4474 years before 967 BC. That means 967 + 4474 takes year 1 to 5440 BC. If 4474 if 967, and we go forward, 1 BC is 966 years later, or 5440 After Creation. 1 AD is one year later (because there is no Year 0). So 1 AD is 5441 AC. So 1900 AD is 7340 AC, 2000 AD is 7440 AC, 2020 AD is 7460 AC, and 2022 is 7462 AC. Jesus was born in 5 BC (Jewish 3756), which is 5436 AC.

Start of Year
The year starts in Winterfylleþ, the first new moon of Winter. The Englisch since 444 (The coming of the English in their reckoning) reckoned years in nights and winters. It would make sense then to start the year with winter. To them there were two main seasons, winter and summer. We now divide the year into 4 seasons: Lenkten (spring), Summer, Hærfest (Autumn), and Winter.

For 2021, that was October 6 at sundown, beginning Winter and 7462 YoC.

Months
The month begins with the first crescent after the new moon, like the Hebrew Calendar. There are 12 months, but a 13th added at the end of the year, becoming "third Liða."

The months are: Winterfylleþ, Blootmonþ, ærer Ȝool, æfter Ȝool, Solmonþ, Reeþmonþ; Eastermonþ, Þrimilcemonþ, ærer Leiðe, (Þrileiðe), æfter Leiðe, Weedmonþ, Haliȝmonþ.

The leap month is added during the 19-year cycle in years 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 17, and 19. The Jewish called these 'pregnant' years.

So for 2021-2022 (7462), the dates translate: - For 2023/7463:
 * Winterfylleþ 1 - October 6, 2021 (sundown)
