As we are approaching the end of the book Bereshit, please find here a version of Bereshit with sources revealed. It has the J source as bold, the E source as italic, the PE source as common letters. Also Bereshit 14, taken from an source other than E, J, or PE, is written with common letters. Editorial additions are underlined. Enjoy!

The Prophecy of PE
Esav and Yoseph have no number assigned by PE. Therefore, we treat both in the same way, in the following diagram:
The two ages of 144, correspond to the two eschatological 144 periods, 5708 + 144 = 5501 + 351, where 11! + 182 = (18*351)2, and one half of 288. The age of Yishmael, 137, is one half of 274; both one-halves are according to 13! + 2882 = (288*274)2.
The age of Sarah, 127, is the period from 5366 until 5493, according to 10! + 152 = (15*127)2.
The ages of Avraham, Yitzchak, and Ya'akov, are 175, 180, 147, a mathematical series that leads to 144.
This is the prophecy of PE.

The Structure of PE
Four things to notice about PE.
Firstly, the text PE identifies the place of Yisrael as the land of Rameses, and not as the land of Goshen. The phraseכַּאֲשֶׁר, צִוָּה פַרְעֹה was possibly added to obfuscate the fact.
Secondly, the text has an alternative tradition about Ma'arat HaMachpelah, according to which only Avraham and Sarah are buried there.
Thirdly, the large abundance of numbers. The message is through them.
Fourthly, note how every person mentioned by name, is introduced: Sarah, his wife; Yitzchak and Yishmael, his sons; Esav and Ya'akov, his sons; and Ya'akov, his (i.e., Yoseph's) father.

The Text of PE
Here is the combined text of PE:
And Sarah's life was a hundred years and twenty years and seven years: the years of Sarah's life. And these are the days of the years of Avraham's life that he lived: a hundred years and seventy years and five years, and he expired. And Yitzchak and Yishmael, his sons, buried him at the cave of Machpelah at the field of Ephron, son of Zohar, the Hittite, facing Mamre, the field that Avraham had bought from the children of Heth. Avraham was buried there -- and Sarah, his wife. And the field and the cave that was in it were established for Avraham as a posession for a tomb from the children of Heth.
And these are the years of Yishmael's life: a hundred years and thirty years and seventy years, and he expired. And Yitzchak's days were a hundred years and eighty years, and he expired. And Esav and Ya'akov, his sons, buried him.
And Yoseph brought Ya'akov, his father, and stood him in front of Par'oh. And Ya'akov blessed Par'oh. And Par'oh said to Ya'akov, "How many are the days of the years of your life?" And Ya'akov said to Par'oh, "The days of the years of my residences are a hundred thirty years. The days of the years of my life have been few and bad, and they haven't attained the days of the years of my father's lives, in the days of their residences." And Ya'akov blessed Par'oh and went out from in front of Par'oh. And Yoseph settled his father and his brothers and gave them a possession in the land of Mitzraim, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses. And Yoseph supported his father and his brothers and all of his father's household, bread by the number of infants. And they were fruitful and multiplied very much. And Ya'akov lived in the land of Mitzraim seventeen years. And Ya'akov's days, the years of his life, were seven years and a hundred forty years, and he expired.

The Structure of P; Part Two
In the same fashion, we separate the following fragment of PE
כַּאֲשֶׁר, צִוָּה פַרְעֹה was deleted, after רַעְמְסֵס in PE. It presumably was added by the editor that made P and PE into what we know as P.

The Structure of P; Part One
On the surface, P has an awful expression of death. In Bereshit 25:8, Bereshit 25:17, and Bereshit 35:29, it says that "he expired, he died, ... and he was gathered to his people," three expressions of death in one sentence. This is a sign of composition, of the source PE with the source P.
Here follows, in bold, the first part of the source PE:
חֶבְרוֹן: בְּאֶרֶץ, כְּנָעַן around the death of Sarah, and the expressions of death are more normal. PE has its own structure, which will become clear after part two, the next post.
וַיִּהְיוּ חַיֵּי שָׂרָה, מֵאָה שָׁנָה וְעֶשְׂרִים שָׁנָה וְשֶׁבַע שָׁנִים--שְׁנֵי, חַיֵּי שָׂרָה. וְאֵלֶּה, יְמֵי שְׁנֵי-חַיֵּי אַבְרָהָם--אֲשֶׁר-חָי: מְאַת שָׁנָה וְשִׁבְעִים שָׁנָה, וְחָמֵשׁ שָׁנִים, וַיִּגְוַע. וַיִּקְבְּרוּ אֹתוֹ יִצְחָק וְיִשְׁמָעֵאל, בָּנָיו, אֶל-מְעָרַת, הַמַּכְפֵּלָה: אֶל-שְׂדֵה עֶפְרֹן בֶּן-צֹחַר, הַחִתִּי, אֲשֶׁר, עַל-פְּנֵי מַמְרֵא. הַשָּׂדֶה אֲשֶׁר-קָנָה אַבְרָהָם, מֵאֵת בְּנֵי-חֵת--שָׁמָּה קֻבַּר אַבְרָהָם, וְשָׂרָה אִשְׁתּוֹ. וַיָּקָם הַשָּׂדֶה וְהַמְּעָרָה אֲשֶׁר-בּוֹ, לְאַבְרָהָם--לַאֲחֻזַּת-קָבֶר: מֵאֵת, בְּנֵי-חֵת
וְאֵלֶּה, שְׁנֵי חַיֵּי יִשְׁמָעֵאל--מְאַת שָׁנָה וּשְׁלֹשִׁים שָׁנָה, וְשֶׁבַע שָׁנִים; וַיִּגְוַע

Esav's Age
In addition to the number 9*42 (144) and the age of Sarah, 127 years, we have the numbers in
13! + 2882 = (288*274)2
where 274 is twice the age of Yishmael, and 288 is twice the number 144. Again the number 144, in addition to 5708 + 144 = 5501 + 27*13. There is one age that is not reported by P, the age of Esav. It should be clear, the age of Esav is 144.
Note that the above equation is mathematical, technological, in nature, and the same is true for the number 127. No way, that the numbers 127, 137, and 144 were known to special in the days of P. Hence it is prophecy. But if one would still want to deny that it is a prophecy, we will now address a truly remarkable structure of P, a structure that should settle the case.
13! + 2882 = (288*274)2
where 274 is twice the age of Yishmael, and 288 is twice the number 144. Again the number 144, in addition to 5708 + 144 = 5501 + 27*13. There is one age that is not reported by P, the age of Esav. It should be clear, the age of Esav is 144.
Note that the above equation is mathematical, technological, in nature, and the same is true for the number 127. No way, that the numbers 127, 137, and 144 were known to special in the days of P. Hence it is prophecy. But if one would still want to deny that it is a prophecy, we will now address a truly remarkable structure of P, a structure that should settle the case.

Coincidence or Prophecy
The number 9*42 is not the only eschatological number. The age reported for Sarah, 127 years, is another one. Can this be a coincidence? Or, is there prophecy in P, formulated using a mathematical series, hidden in the ages of the Avot, and of Sarah? Time for an investigation!

The Missing Age
175 = 7 * 52, 180 = 5 * 62, and 147 = 3 * 72.
It is a very remarkable fact. Was there a mathematician among the authors of P? What did he want to encode?
One age is notably missing, in the Torah of P, and that is the age 144 = 9 * 42. Could it be that 9 * 42 is an eschatological number instead? Note that 5708 + 9 * 42 = 5501 + 27*13.

Men of Truth
Chiddush follows Chiddush. Perhaps it is now possible to say the following.
In the beginning, G-d created, using the Midah of Din. He created the monkeys, the old-world monkeys and the new-world monkeys. He created them in 92*10*11*13*29*212 years. Then created HaShem the apes, using the Midah of Chesed, all kinds of apes. He created them in 292*214 kiloyears. Finally, HaShem G-d finished creation, in Truth, with Rachamim. He created man, man and woman, all kinds of man. He created them in 132*162*29*11K years.
The monkeys among man, Yishmael, the wild asses of men, uncivilised men, are making war with the apes among man, with Esav, with the blood-ruddy, the hairy ones. The men of Din against the men of Chesed, as it were. It has to be. Out of this will come the men of Truth, the giants, who will take the place of the apes and monkeys among man.

The Middle Value
In this post, I argued that the real value for the age of the Universe would have to be the middle value.
And, in denotation, 292*214 kiloyears is the middle of 92*10*11*13*29*212 years, and 132*162*29*11K years.
But, regarding the intension of the expression, 132*162*29*11K can be seen as the golden middle of 292*214 kiloyears and 92*10*11*13*29*212 years; the middle between a short, square, value, and a long, not so square, value.
I did not see this before, but intensionally, the "middle value" is equal to 132*162*29*11K years.

Three Estimates Revisited
We saw earlier three estimates for the age of the Universe. They can be written as:
- Estimate one: 92*10*11*13*29*212 years, which is 13,758,750,720 years.
- Estimate two: 11*132*29*256*1000 years, which is 11*132*29*256 kiloyears, which is 13,801,216 kiloyears.
- Estimate three: 292*214 kiloyears, which is 13,778,944 kiloyears.
The experimental value of the age of the Universe was updated on September 24, 2015. The first estimate now seems to be ruled out by the narrowing value, currently 13.799 ± 0.021 billion years. The third estimate has theoretical advantages, and it is still possible, but it is the second estimate, best written as 132*162*29*11K years, where the experimental value likely seems to go.
It is exhilarating. It is frightening.

The Eschatological Calendar
The eschatological calendar is an eternal calendar, which starts in the year 1329 and changes generation every 480 years, just like the previous one. From the year of adoption, until shortly after the year 6000, the two calendars coincide. The period of 480 years, and the year 1329, are explained here and here.
The complete Java program is here. The lines
double m0 = T - (5. + n)* K + L + 14.;
and
a = (12 * year + 12 + n)% 19;
and
this(year, ((year - 1329) / 480));
have been changed. The Qeviyot of the eschatological calendar can be found here, from the year 1329 until the year 7200. During this range of 6000 years, the calendar is quite accurate with respect to the Equinox.

The Sanhedrin Of Truth
What kind of Sanhedrin am I talking about? About the Sanhedrin of Truth. About the Sanhedrin that is so in love with HaShem, so in love with the Truth, so Chayav to the Truth, that they cannot possibly keep ignoring the voice of Eliyahu, the truth in the academic approach to Torah. They will find the way to do Teshuva, to before the time of D and P. Teshuva out of love. Out of love of the Truth. Out of love of HaShem. This is the Sanhedrin that I address.

My Guess
I imagine that the calendar based on round numbers will be attractive to Sanhedrin. For one, it keeps the Psak of the gemara in Rosh Hashanah 21, according to which the latest date the Spring Equinox is Nissan 16. Second, it is an eternal calendar, which goes to generation five in the year 6000, 3600+5*480. This is easy to remember.
The Qeviyot of this calendar can be found here, until the year 6500. The complete Java program is here.

Take Us Out
The historical task of the Sanhedrin is to bring back the Judaism of the early prophets, of Yeshayahu, of Hoshea. Currently, the Datiyim imagine a return to the Judaism of the end of Bayit Sheni, and the Chilonim imagine nothing of this kind. Very few imagine a return to the Judaism of Bayit Rishon. But politically, we have already returned to the time of Bayit Rishon. Only religiously, we are still in the Galut. It is the task of Sanhedrin to take us out. If they grab the task, how good. But if not, salvation will come from a different place.

Eternal Calendar Based On Round Numbers
I suggest a fourth possibility for Sanhedrin to consider: an eternal calendar based on round numbers; (year - 3600) / 480. Here is the complete program.

Acknowledgements
Thanks are due to Carl Friedrich Gauss for coming up, in 1802, with the extremely brilliant orinigal formula, or algorithm, and to Zvi Har'El for his brilliant
elucidation of the algorithm, and for giving programs, in C, and in Java. I propose to have the (generational variant of the) Java code as a part of the Halachic standard (with the required minimal substitutions, specified by the Sanhedrin). The third person to be thanked is James A. Shneer, who wrote the wonderful book The Jewish Calendar and the Torah: Introduction - 2nd Edition. I am sure the book was created with the Gauss algorithm, probably with one of the programs of Zvi Har'El. A change in Halacha would be welcomed by Shneer, I guess, as an opportunity to make a special edition of his book.

Eternal Calendar
We can construct an "eternal" calendar program, which is based on the assumption that the calendar started in 3409, and changes generation every 476 years. The program goes, automatically, to generation 5 in our days. Here is the complete program,
which regenerates the output of this post. The "eternal" calendar behaves fine, as you can verify yourself, from year 4000 to year 8000.
Generational Gauss Class
We can define a generational Gauss class by changing three lines of this Java code.
We add a generational parameter n to the class constructor. That is we replace the line
public Gauss(int year, boolean g)
by the line
public Gauss(int year, boolean g, int n)
We replace the line
private static final double m0 = T - 10. * K + L + 14.;
by the line
double m0 = T - (10. + n)* K + L + 14.;
and move it down to below the constructor. Lastly, we change the line
a = (12 * year + 17) % 19;
into
a = (12 * year + 17 + n)% 19;
Then generational Gauss objects.with the third parameter 0 are "equal" to the original objects. Generational Gauss objects with third parameter 5 are "equal" to changed Gauss objects specified here. Generational Gauss objects with third parameter 4 are "equal" to the changed Gauss objects hinted to here.
Finally, here is the complete Java program that prints the output of the previous post, with the generational Gauss class.
public Gauss(int year, boolean g)
by the line
public Gauss(int year, boolean g, int n)
We replace the line
private static final double m0 = T - 10. * K + L + 14.;
by the line
double m0 = T - (10. + n)* K + L + 14.;
and move it down to below the constructor. Lastly, we change the line
a = (12 * year + 17) % 19;
into
a = (12 * year + 17 + n)% 19;
Then generational Gauss objects.with the third parameter 0 are "equal" to the original objects. Generational Gauss objects with third parameter 5 are "equal" to changed Gauss objects specified here. Generational Gauss objects with third parameter 4 are "equal" to the changed Gauss objects hinted to here.
Finally, here is the complete Java program that prints the output of the previous post, with the generational Gauss class.

The Earliest Pesach
The earliest Pesach, according to the proposed new calendar, until the year 6000:
5790: 19-03
5809: 20-03
5828: 18-03
5847: 20-03
5866: 20-03
5885: 20-03
5904: 19-03
5923: 20-03
5942: 19-03
5961: 21-03
5980: 21-03
5999: 21-03
One time, the date is 18-03, too early perhaps. Three times the date is 19-03, acceptable. Five times the date is 20-03, fine.
However, the rule that just two years, 6 and 7, are skipped to arrive at the new calendar, is easily understood. Moreover, the new calendar that we proposed is valid for some 500 years.
If the earliest of the earliest Pesach dates is deemed unacceptable, the solution would be to go from year 5 to year 19 (less intuitive), together with a different, though equally simple prescription to change the Java program. The resulting calendar would be valid maximally until about 5950.

That Is All
Based on this analysis, we change only two lines of code in Java, and the program calculates the Jewish calendar as in this post.
We change to the new proposed calendar by replacing the line
private static final double m0 = T - 10. * K + L + 14.;
by the line
private static final double m0 = T - 15. * K + L + 14.;
Moreover, the line
a = (12 * year + 17) % 19;
is changed into
a = (12 * year + 3) % 19;
That is it. That is how I did it.
So, this is what it amounts to, the issuing of the decision that years 6 and 7 of the cycle (one time only) be skipped, and that we proceed with year 8, and the prescription that two lines be changed in the Java code, as above. That is all.
private static final double m0 = T - 10. * K + L + 14.;
by the line
private static final double m0 = T - 15. * K + L + 14.;

Shneer's Notation for the Qeviyot
I follow Shneer's notation for the Qeviyot. This notation is
(C|L)(D|R|A)(2|3|5|7)
where
C stands for Common year and L stands for a leap year.
D stands for a Deficient (353 or 383 days) year, R stands for Regular (354 or 384 days) year, A stands for Abundant (355 or 385 days) year.
Finally, the number at the end denotes the day in the week Rosh HaShana falls.
For instance, LR3 is a regular leap year (384 days) and it starts on a Tuesday. For instance, CA2 is abundant common year (355 days) and it starts on a Monday.
(C|L)(D|R|A)(2|3|5|7)
where
C stands for Common year and L stands for a leap year.
D stands for a Deficient (353 or 383 days) year, R stands for Regular (354 or 384 days) year, A stands for Abundant (355 or 385 days) year.
Finally, the number at the end denotes the day in the week Rosh HaShana falls.
For instance, LR3 is a regular leap year (384 days) and it starts on a Tuesday. For instance, CA2 is abundant common year (355 days) and it starts on a Monday.
New Qeviyot and The Dates of Pesach
Below follow the Qeviyot and the dates of Pesach that are going to be be needed if Sanhedrin would decide to go with the proposal here. It is generated by a computer program based on this. Specifics follow in subsequent posts.

Next Chance
The universal 19-year cycle can be succinctly written in terms of its leap years, 1,3,6,9,11,14,17. In our current calendar, year 17 is mapped to year 1 of the universal cycle. This year, 5776, is year 3 of the universal cycle, a leap year. The Sanhedrin could not change it, not because they are not aware of the fact that 15 Adar Beth 5776, would-be Pesach, is well after the Spring Equinox, but because as a Sanhedrin they are not recognized by the majority of the people of Israel.
The next chance is year 9 of the universal cycle, year 5782. It could be declared, by the Sanhedrin, to be year 11 of the universal cycle. Alternatively, using the standard numbers, year 6 of our current calendar, should become year 8. Going forward then, leap years are as usual, the years 3,6,8,11,14,17,19. May we merit it.

The Jewish Calendar
Likewise, these are the "cycle numbers" of the middle path:
8,
10,
29,
35.75,
49,
64,
100,
1000,
35750,
71471.
This is the higher path, the longer path, the more ultimate path. As the middle path, it can help to the right and to the left. To the right, 49 helps the count of Chesed, and because of that, 8*35.75 helps to adjust 16*18, on the left. And, as a compromise between left and right, the age of the Universe is set to be 29^2*2^14 kiloyears.
Together with steps of the Meshichin, the path becomes:
7,8,
10,
12,13,
15,16,
18,19,
27,28,29,
35.75,37
49,
64,
100,
1000,
35750,
71471.
The combined path, until 19, can be completed as:
2,
4,5,
7,8,
10,
12,13,
15,16,
18,19.
This can be read as the 12 normal years of the 19-year cycle. In other words, it represents the Jewish calendar. The current calendar follows if the year 17 of the 19-year cycle in the conventional system, year 5774 is the last instance, is year 1 of the universal cycle.

The Steps Of The Meshichin
To who understands. The cycle lengths of the two Meshichin follow a pattern:
7,
12,13,
15,16,
18,19,
27,28,
37.
This corresponds to "steps" of the Meshichin, as follows:
left,
right, left,
right, left,
left, right,
left, right,
right.
7,
12,13,
15,16,
18,19,
27,28,
37.
This corresponds to "steps" of the Meshichin, as follows:
left,
right, left,
right, left,
left, right,

Rightly So
We edited the Torah. It is obvious. Christianity, with its belief in G-d the Father, does not believe that we edited the Torah, as some Jews do not believe that we edited the Torah. But we edited the Torah. The Quran is right. We changed the story of the Akeidah, but we did not substitute Yishmael for Yitzchak, as the Quran has it. We changed the story of the sacrificing, to G-d, of Yitzchak, into the story of his survival, by the grace of Hashem. And by the grace of Hashem, we will survive the onslaught in the name of God.
It is about morality. The western world, and Christianity, has a lesson to learn. The Islam comes to teach that lesson. But we will withstand the onslaught. Because the issue is moral. Yes, the Torah is edited. Rightly so.
