Notes: 1st month of the year (Aviv) determined by the first New Moon with a 14th day after

the Spring Equinox. From Aviv 1 begin count: 14th day at evening is Passover.

The first Hebrew Month is called Aviv but its Babylonian/secular name is Nisan.

{1}: Aviv 1 is the day the Mishkan was erected in the wilderness. “Mishkan” is the Hebrew word for Tabernacle.

{2}: Purim is not a commanded festival. It was added by the Jews during the time of Esther (See Esther 9:20-32). Though it was not commanded, it should be remembered as a time when Yahweh saved the Jews from extinction. Purim is traditionally celebrated with the reading of the Book of Esther.

Wavesheaf (Sefirat HaOmer) is recognizable but not keepable. It is the morrow after the weekly Sabbath (Leviticus 23:11-16), thus 50 days later will be Pentecost/Shavuot. This is the same “Morrow after the Sabbath” or “First day of the week” when the women found the empty tomb (Lk. 24:1).

The second Hebrew month is called Ziv in Scripture but its Babylonian/secular name is Iyyar.

destruction of the Second Temple. Jewish tradition states that this was also the day the First Temple was destroyed, as well as the day the spies of Bemidbar / Numbers 13 gave a bad report, and thus caused them to wander for 40 years.

Notes: The tenth Hebrew month is not named in Scripture. Its Babylonian/secular name is

Tevet. Chanukkah is not a commanded festival. In fact, the story is not found in Scripture at all,

but rather in the apocryphal books of 1 & 2 Maccabees. However, history does testify that the story is true. 1 Maccabees 4 details how Judas called Maccabee (lit. “Judas the Hammer”) purified the Temple after the Greeks (under Antiochus Epiphanes) defiled it. The theory behind why eight days were chosen is that they had celebrated Sukkot just a couple of months prior, and so they already had a pattern of joyous celebration lasting for eight days. John 10:22 tells us that Yeshua was at the Temple on the “feast of dedication” (Chanukkah). Though it never says He kept it, it is implied that He did. (Why else would He be there that day?).
