January 1 lies inside Year 6Nisan Year 6: 1n BC → AD 1n. Nisan Year 7: AD 1n → AD 2n. The winter covenant date is not the spring year boundary.
The regular MT Creation template runs 4121 → 4115 → 4114 BC: six years, then one of rest. The Incarnation week follows the same 6 + 1 order, 6 BC → AD 1 → AD 2. Astronomical labels −5, +1 and +2 make the intervals explicit.
File 07 supplies the MT Creation-week model, including Adam’s sixth-year opening at 4116 BC. File 13 supplies the Incarnation week. Its Nisan form is 6n BC → AD 2n; Year 6 is 1n BC → AD 1n and Year 7 is AD 1n → AD 2n. January 1 is inside Year 6, not the Nisan boundary. This compares corresponding structures; it generates no reflected date.
