Chapter 330 Calendar Update
The moon calendar and the solar calendar have their own advantages and disadvantages.
From an agricultural perspective, the moon calendar is actually meaningless.
From the perspective of distinguishing dates, the solar calendar is far inferior to the moon calendar.
After all, in the Moon Calendar, just look up at the moon and you can actually determine what day it is today.
If the moon is full and wanes a few times, you can tell how many months have passed.
As far as Gerris knows, although the lunar calendar of the Celestial Empire was later called the lunar calendar, it was actually a combination of yin and yang.
The arrangement and date of the month are calculated based on the moon's roundness and malfunction, but at the same time, the 24 solar terms are bound to the direct regression line of the sun.
It can be said that the lunar calendar of the Celestial Dynasty, as a combination of yin and yang, attempts to take into account the advantages of both the solar calendar and the moon calendar.
How can I say this? At some point, I did it.
But many times, it is impossible to do it...
This result that is both necessary and necessary is the calendar of the ancient Celestial Empire, and the deviation occurs far higher than that of the simple moon calendar or the simple solar calendar.
Moreover, its complexity is so high that the old farmers cannot understand alone, so that revising the calendar has become a dynasty's act of declaring its orthodoxy.
For Gerris, although it is not impossible to formulate a yin and yang calendar, it is very difficult to promote it.
A calendar that is very difficult to promote is meaningless to Gellis at the moment.
Therefore, Gregorian chose a calendar that was a little more troublesome than the Julian calendar, but even an illiterate old farmer could understand it even if he spent more brain cells.
The Julian calendar mistakenly measured the year as 365.25 days. Although this incident had no effect at that time, as the thousand years passed, the actual solar year of 365.2422 had deviated nearly 10 days from the beginning.
In 1582, Pope Gregory announced that the day after Thursday, October 4, 1582 of the Julian calendar was Friday, October 15, 1582, which was deleted for 10 days.
Then, in order to make the 0.0078-day less than 365.25 disappear.
In the Gregorian calendar, every 400 years is a cycle, which is 3 leap days less than the Julian calendar.
In actual manifestation, every year that can be divisible by 4 is a leap year, but a year that can be divisible by 100 must also be divisible by 400 to be a leap year.
Therefore, 1700, 1800, and 1900 are not leap years, while 2000 is a leap year.
This situation is 97 times every 400 years, which adjusts the average length of the calendar to 365.2425 days, which is closer to the return year of the 365.2422 day when the earth revolves around the sun.
It takes every 3,300 years to deviate one day.
Easy to learn, easy to calculate, easy to understand, and very accurate...
The advantages of these Gregorian calendars make them almost unify all national calendars on the earth.
So much so that the Gregorian calendar was called the Gregorian calendar in the Celestial Empire.
The move to change the calendar of the Celestial Dynasty was not to admire foreign countries, but to be too simple and easy to use.
For Garys, the biggest advantage of adopting the Gregorian calendar is actually that it is.
He does not need to perform any astronomical observations and calculations, and can copy and reuse them directly by mental calculation.
The Gregorian calendar was opened by Pope Gregorian XIII in October 1582.
It is now 1200 years, and the difference between the two is 382 years. Divided by one 128, which means that it is about 3.
In other words, since Pope Gregory announced his disappearance for ten days in 1582, Gerris directly announced his disappearance for seven days in 1200, which was perfectly adapted.
In other words, today is September 21, and tomorrow will become September 28
Of course, that's more than that.
"I want to tell you! This year is the prelude to the calendar and the year when everything is refreshed!"
"And the next year will be the first year of the calendar!"
"Allah has already allowed me to tell me to pass all this knowledge through my mouth to all people under this sky!"
"Whether it is the elves or the angels, everything will be updated from today!"
Although the Gregorian calendar was actually an adjustment of the Julian calendar, it did not start to re-doc it.
But for Gerris, it's different.
He could not tell these Muslims and asked them to learn from Christianity.
Because in that case, he will seem too biased to Christianity.
Therefore, Gerris simply went further, not saying that everyone should follow the Christian calendar.
Instead, everyone who believes in him will adopt a new calendar and start the year again!
In this new calendar, the year 1200 of the Confucian calendar will be the year BC.
In this new calendar, the year 1201 of the Confucian calendar is 1 AD.
Gerris's announcement also had written a letter and sent it to Jerusalem.
Then, there will be Tripoli, Antioch, Cyprus... and other areas that can be affected by Gerris.
【Look! The tabernacle of the Lord is in the world! God himself dwells with them, they will be His people, and God himself will be with them, and they will be their God. 】
[No more crying, no sadness, death will no longer exist, old things have passed, everything has been updated...]
Yes, it's all updated.
Gerris did not perform any miracles, because the words he said were the conciseness of miracles.
Time and history will prove Gerris' correctness, and the sun hanging high in the sky will become a clear proof.
Just like the Gregorian calendar, it has unstoppable replaced almost all the official calendars on the earth.
The update announced by Garys will also wash away the old things because of its correctness.
Later generations had no way to determine how Gerris calculated the detailed time of the solar year.
Was he alone received God’s revelation, or did he have arranged astronomical calculations as early as Jerusalem?
For later generations, this is more shocking than those miraculous moments recorded in the scriptures.
After all, people cannot imagine what they know. How Gerry can fight and how hard they can carry the tripod is actually just a matter of two sentences written by the writer of the book.
The people in the book want as much as they want, whether it is Samson or Xiang Yu.
But these knowledge that suddenly appears and then deeply changes the fate of mankind seems particularly terrifying.
After all, there is no reason...
The audiences in the audience didn't understand what kind of historical moments they had witnessed, but because Gerris' image was too profound, they were amazed.
As for those teaching scholars who knew what Gerris was going to do, they were more anxious than the other, but the leaders of various tribes pressed them down and kept them from speaking.
Time passed by little by little, and every minute and second confirmed Gerris' infallibility.
...
During this rally, Gerris was not simply announcing the renewal of the calendar, because so many people were present. Therefore, Gerris simply began to preach on the spot.
It is still to make it easier for those present to understand and remember clearly.
Gerris did not introduce his doctrine in a complicated way, but directly took many words from the Bible and the Quran.
These discourses correspond to the four pillars of Gerris' theology, or four moral standards.
1: Faith is action, not escape.
[Faith without behavior is dead. 】
[Allah will not change the situation of any people until they change their own situation. 】
The faith of the Gellis Order is not to wait for redemption, but to actively practice the faith. Faith does not stop at the satisfaction of the soul, but rather establishing justice and order in the world.
True believers do not passively accept revelation, but practice the truth in the world so that the world can change by their actions.
2: Responsibility is higher than forgiveness, responsibility is better than repentance
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
[Although the righteous falls seven times, they will still rise; but the wicked are overwhelmed by misfortunes. 】
[Everyone is only rewarded for his own behavior. 】
Repentance is not for one's own salvation, but for greater responsibility.
The purpose of forgiveness is not to make people forget their sins, but to make up for past mistakes with practical actions.
Even the slightest compensation will be given to God's most heart-wrenching salvation, because Gerris is the middle-class guarantee.
Three: Knowledge is enlightenment, exploration is faith
[You keen minds! You should teach others. 】
[You will know the truth, and the truth will give you freedom. 】
The Gerris Order does not consider revelation limited to ancient scriptures, but rather believes that exploring the world itself is a way toward the divine.
Knowledge is part of faith, science and faith are not opposite, and all pursuit of truth is part of religion.
Believers must continue to learn and think, explore nature, society and human beings themselves, in order to constantly approach divine wisdom.
Gerris' greatest miracle will never be those killings, or changes in light and shadow, but rather the way he brings to "truth".
4: Justice is the core of faith, not personal salvation
[May fairness be like the water rolling, and justice be like the river surging. 】
[When you see something unjust, you should stop it with your hands; if you cannot, stop it with words; if you still cannot, you should hate it with your heart, which is the weakest belief. 】
Faith is not about escaping from the world, but about letting the world change by faith.
In the face of injustice, believers must take action. Even if you cannot change it directly, you must at least resist it, rather than accept oppression or surrender to evil.
Gerris had considered these four pillars a lot before, but this was the first time he had said it systematically.
Of course, this is actually Garys' transformation, even a kind of growth.
In the past, Gerris would have distinguished the scriptures from others in order to be "correct" and "orthodox".
But after this stage, Gerris no longer needs to quote scriptures and distinguish the disciples of the Prophets or the disciples of the Heavenly Brother who have reduced their value word by word.
Because distinguishing scriptures is the responsibility of the students, as a teacher, what he has to do is to write scriptures that future generations can distinguish!
Of course, it can also be roughly understood that as long as Gerry is successful enough, then there will be a great scholar who will defend him, so why should he do it yourself?
Compared to the outcome of those specific scriptures, what Gerris needs to do is to grasp the core intention and have continuously passed on it.
On this issue, Gerris has actually gradually deviated from the scope of liberation theology and tried to become more universal.
...
The cold wind blew through the hills of Anatolia, and the withered grasslands shone with glimmer in the winter sun.
The herdsmen wore heavy wool cloaks and rode their horses slowly, driving the flocks and camels to migrate to the south's winter farms.
The harvest in September comes quickly and goes quickly.
In the blink of an eye, November came. On this day when the cold wind was rising, the herdsmen of the Uktu tribe must go to their respective winter pastures before the first snow fell.
No matter how many accidents and sufferings we experienced in 1 BC, the herds are the lives of the shepherds, and no matter what, they must continue to grazle.
The sound of cow rings and sheep bleats came one after another, mixed with the barking of dogs, echoing in this empty world.
Among this huge herd, one person is particularly tall.
Her long golden hair was tied behind her head and she simply tied her ponytail.
Now Gerris is wearing a shepherd's fur coat and waves the sheep whip in his hand, walking north with the herds.
Unlike what many people think, the winter farm is not necessarily southward, for the Uktu department.
The main purpose of their winter ranch is actually to find water sources.
In a continental climate, it is unlikely that the winter is low in temperature and rain, and it is expected that the sky will be rained at any time to make up for it.
But snow is a water molecule that can be used at any time.
Therefore, for the Uktu, it is natural to go to the Black Sea where there is more moisture and is prone to snowfall.
Because Gerris wanted to continue to understand the lives of herders, and he could also go to Trabisson, so he headed north with the Arslan family.
In the past two months, Gerris has not only guided the Ottoman Turkic leaders to complete the architectural system of a Turkic conference, but also received Paladins from Antioch.
After having Paladin from Antioch, many things can actually be the boss.
Not only the details of agricultural farming, but also the structure of the parliamentary system, can also be given certain guidance in reference to the system of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.
Gerris has never been known for being responsible for specific matters, and everyone is actually used to it.
Many times, Gerris takes the initiative to go to the frontier of faith, and uses his amazing charm to expand the activity space of the church.
However, this time there is some difference from before.
Because the end point was to go to Trabisson, in addition to the native Arslan, Gerris also had some more followers.
Among these people, not only are Paladinmen like Alexandros, but also one more Mohammed.
Faced with Mohammed's request for advice, Gerris did not hide his own private affairs. After briefly introducing some of his own teachings, he allowed the other party to follow him.
Many things cannot be understood in just a few words, but can be verified by words.
When Gerris and others drove the herd around a mountain pass, the cold wind blew in his face.
Arslan walked at the front of the team and pointed to the foot of the mountain that was like a desert.
"We're coming..."
