Kalenda is an 8 day celebration described in the Talmud as established by Adam for the children of Noah. Following an advent period of solemnity and fasting which was corrupted into "Saturnalia", the original celebration Kalenda began on the eve of Dec 25th (originally just after the winter solstice) and lasted until Jan 1st. The fact that it is still remembered today by high-church Christians is a still lasting testimony to the fact that Christianity once had a Noachite origin. The Christmas Proclamation "Kalenda" mentioned in the Talmud and Mishna (Avodah Zara 8a), concludes the prayer vigil held just before midnight mass at Christmas Eve. It may also be included in the Midnight mass itself immediately before the Gloria.
