A dear friend who keeps up with Ken Johnson's work wrote me early this morning. Apparently yesterday- the day of the attack, was Purim on the Dead Sea Scroll calendar- according to Dr Ken Johnson.Soo who thinks Israel's attack on Iran will kick off next Monday on Purim LOl ?
So there may be some significance with the date as the DSS calendar is the one that the ancient Essenes kept track of, and it was slightly different than the modern Jewish calendar system which is based on the ancient Pharisee calendar. The calendars diverged sometime after the Babylonian captivity.
