Bible Answer: Currently, it is impossible to know, because the calendaring system used by the Hebrews in the Old Testament is unknown. There are a few month names mentioned. i.e. Ex 13:4 On this day in the month of Abib, you are about to go forth. By the time of the New Testament the Babylonians/Greeks had much influence on the calendar, thus the Old Testament Hebrew calendar is lost. Here is a good site for info about calendars in the Bible: http://www.bible-history.com/jewishyear/jewishyear_nelson_s_illustrated_bible_dictionary.html Norm |
