1 Enoch 79
1And now, my son Mathusala, I have shown thee everything; and _the account of_ every ordinance of the stars of heaven is finished.
2He showed me every ordinance respecting these, which _takes place_ at all times and in all seasons under every influence, in all years, at the arrival and under the rule of each, during every month and every week. _He showed me_ also the decrease of the moon, which is effected in the sixth gate; for in that sixth gate is its light consumed.
3From this is the beginning of the month; and its decrease is effected in the sixth gate in its period, until a hundred and seventy-seven days are completed; according to the mode of computation by weeks, twenty-five _weeks_ and two days.
4_Its period_ is less than that of the sun, according to the ordinance of the stars, by five days in one half year precisely.
5When that _their_ visible situation is completed. Such is the appearance and likeness of every luminary, which Uriel, the great angel who conducts them, showed to me.
