If JW use the Hebrew calendar, they should not be celebrating on March 23.At this point, Passover falls around the second full moon in years 8, 11 and 19. Our leap years fall in years 3, 6, 8, 11, 14, 17, 19 of a given 19-year cycle, regardless of the true equinox date. At this point, we do not use the astronomical equinox to calculate anything.You need to understand the following, all of which is somehow included in the article, but might not be obvious: ![]() No Jew that I am aware of celebrated Passover on March 23. Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 21:50, 12 December 2016 (UTC) Reply You are correct that this past Passover fell around the second full moon after the equinox. Did any Jews celebrate on Mar 23? I'm a bit overwhelmed by the article. This year (2016) they celebrated on March 23. The Jehovah's Witnesses claim to use the Hebrew calendar to determine Nisan 14, so that they can celebrate that. The next one was April 22, which was the date of Passover. It seems to me that Passover in 2016 fell on the second full moon after the equinox. I hope this is where I can ask my question. Debresser ( talk) 22:39, 21 January 2015 (UTC) Reply It is a technical detail, a highly technical and rather minor detail, and as such seems unnecessary. I have no specific knowledge regarding the questions asked above. StevenJ81 ( talk) 18:53, 21 January 2015 (UTC) Reply I removed it once, only because it seemed out of place. Note that I am not taking sides-I only want to settle this without further edit warring. ![]() Until we solve this here, I propose to revert any attempt to put the edit back in the article. I propose we answer these questions here and come to a resolution, and then decide where (if anywhere) this edit should go. Everyone: Again, leaving aside for the moment the question of where in the article this might go, am I missing anything else that is causing this edit war?.Opponents: Leaving aside for the moment the question of where in the article this might go, why is this an inappropriate or confusing example? Alternatively, is the example ok, but the wording poor? Side question: is there a year closer than 2019 when Passover falls on the second full moon after the equinox?.Proponents: Do I correctly state the case?.Apparently, the proponents of these edits wish to include it as an example of how calendar drift can push Passover to the second full moon after the equinox rather than the first. We seem to be having an edit war here on the subject of Passover 2019. This article has been rated as C-Class on the quality scale.
