Description: Explains the relationship between the Hebrew civil calendar and Hebrew religious calendar and describes the history of the Hebrew month names.
Jewish (Hebrew) Calendar - Origin And History The Jewish calendar - also known as the Hebrew calendar - and its history is described on this web page. The Jewish calendar - including the Hebrew months and the Jewish calendrical system of calculating dates - traces its origins to the Babylonian calendar. Regarding Jewish calendar month names, with some rare exceptions, the Hebrew Bible does not mention any months by name; instead it mentions the month by number which is the reason for the "Month Number" column. The months of Cheshvan and Kislev are determined by calculations that depend on which day of the week that the first day of the month of Tishri (or Tishrei) would occur in the following year and on what time of day when the full moon would occur in the month of Tishri in the following year.
