Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

 Because I celebrate Hanukkah does not mean that I cannot celebrate Christmas. So for Christmas I do especially after you read my Hanukkah posts say "Merry Christmas.". Merry Christmas. And I will say that outside of any song you have handed down to you by holy tradition the best Christmas album I have come across is Joy by Jewel especially Silent Night, Born Is the King of Israel, and O Little Town of Bethlahem she also has the worldly tunes and Jewel even performed at the Vatican, she went from California to the Vatican.

 Since I did not have any opportunity to give gifts this Christmas I have an offer to put out here. There are so many junk bibles today about a year ago I set out to get an original copy of the bible in original english, that is the 1611 King James Authorized Bible titled The Holy Bible, it is a rare book and thank's to University of Pensylvania rare books library that I got it. It is hard to find these days and almost all bibles in english are edits of this original English bible. If you speak English this is the best choice because it comes from the original authority of english, the English King's College there is perhaps no more authoritive source on english and how to speak english than this book. That is the bullet point. 

• The 1611 KJV is undisputably the most authoritative bible in the English Language.

NOTE: Anyone that would dispute this bullet point is wasting your time arguing and working to mislead you.

I have uploaded my copy of The Holy Bible to a box.com account to be able to share it to learners.

My gift offer for this Christmas open until next Christmas is to teach a Bible study for well composed adults (8 and up), beginning with the Original 1611 introduction, from The Holy Bible  by appointment only. Contact me now to collect your Christmas gift.

Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

At the New Year people do all different kinds of things like watching a disco ball drop in Times Square New York. I made it a point to halt any plans, activities and tasks and if they need to be completed I will just start again. It a tradition to make a new years resolution so my resolution will be to set a year long flexible agenda for 2026. My resolution is to keep a flexible agenda for the 2026 year. Feel free to post your resolve for a new year in the comments section of this blog entry.

I know there are different calendars with competetive new years but nearly all of these are preserved from the Gregorian calendar anyway. None of these time keepers have kept an unbroken record but restarted from the calendar we use now in some kind of ancient world preservation attempts. When you read my Hanukkah post you see my mention of the Israeli calendar being a day off and yes it probably has to do with setting the date and comparing it to the modern calendar also all computers use. 

NOTE: These are not idle complaints. I did attempt to resolve this problem by asking Jerusalem Channel to point a webcam at Jerusalem's public clock for me to get a snapshot of a reference point to synchronize watches and correct the calendar, my Hodeshim. Jerusalem Channel replied to say they do not have access to a live webcam and for a TV channel, I wouldn't ecpect this from a TV station.
