Dude, the Hebrew calendar is already set according to the phases of the moon, and those who calculate it have been doing so their whole lives and all agree. If anyone's off, it's got to be you. Why would you be calculating the dates for things, anyway? The calendar already exists.
And to what extent do you know Hebrew? Why throw words into your English that have perfectly intelligible names in English? Do you need to write בני ישראל when we know perfectly well what "the children of Israel" means in English?
I'm all about Hebrew. I speak Hebrew. I teach biblical Hebrew online. I love the language, but I don't think the words have magical meanings that don't exist in English. We speak English on this forum. You can certainly express yourself in English.
If Hebrew is serious for you, and you want to communicate in Hebrew, we can do that. My problem is that it seems that you're trying to attach magical meaning to Hebrew words.
