11th Month /10th Day -1st from Sabbath (sunday)

Genesis 8:6-9

6After forty days Noah opened a window he had made in the ark.7and sent out a raven, and it kept flying back and forth until the water had dried up from the earth. 8Then he sent out a dove to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground.9But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark.


Qumran 4Q252, fr. I (Gen. vi, 3—XV, 17)

9But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark.


Jubilees 6:23-31

And on the new head of the first month, and on the new head of the fourth month, and on the new head of the seventh month, and on the new head of the tenth month are the days of remembrance, and the days of the seasons in the four divisions of the year. These are written and ordained as a testimony for ever.

And Noah ordained them for himself as feasts for the generations for ever, so that they have become thereby a memorial unto him.

And on the new head of the first month he was bidden to make for himself an ark, and on that (day) the earth became dry and he opened (the ark) and saw the earth.

And on the new head of the fourth month the mouths of the depths of the abyss beneath were closed. And on the new head of the seventh month all the mouths of the abysses of the earth were opened, and the waters began to descend into them.

And on the new head of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen, and Noah was glad.

And on this account he ordained them for himself as feasts for a memorial for ever, and thus are they ordained.

And they placed them on the heavenly tablets, each had thirteen weeks; from one to another (passed) their memorial, from the first to the second, and from the second to the third, and from the third to the fourth.

And all the days of the commandment will be two and fifty weeks of days, and (these will make) the entire year complete. Thus it is engraven and ordained on the heavenly tablets.

And there is no neglecting (this commandment) for a single year or from year to year.


Jubilés 6:21-27

Et la tête du 1er mois et la tête du 4e mois et la tête du 7e mois et la tête du 10e mois sont les jours de mémoire et les jours des saisons dans les 4 partitions de l’année ; ceux-là sont écrits et ordonnées comme un témoignage pour toujours.

22 Et Noah les leur recommanda pour lui-même comme des fêtes pour les générations à jamais pour qu’elles deviennent un mémorial pour lui : A la tête du 1er mois – il lui fut permit de faire une arche, et en ce [jour] la terre devint sèche et il ouvrit l’arche et vit la terre ;

23 à la tête du 4e mois – les entrées des profondeurs de l’abîme au-dessous furent fermées ;

24 à la tête du 7e mois – toutes les entrées des abîmes de la terre furent ouvertes et les eaux commencèrent à y descendre ;

25 et à la tête du 10e mois – les sommets des montagnes se voyaient, et Noah fut heureux.

26 Et à ce sujet il leur ordonna pour lui-même comme des fêtes en mémorial à toujours et elles furent ainsi ordonnées et ils les mirent sur les tablettes célestes.

27 Chacune avait 13 semaines de l’une à l’autre et [passait] leur mémorial de la 1e à la 2e et de la 2e à la 3e et de la 3e à la 4e, et tous les jours de l’ordonnance sont de 52 semaines de jours et [cela constitue] l’année au complet ; ceci est gravé et ordonné sur les tablettes célestes et il n’y a pas de négligence [à ce commandement] pour une seule année ou d’année en année.
