HISTORY OF THE CALENDAR
Not having a method to measure time and seasons would cause chaos.
The divisions of the years, months, days, hours and minutes were wisely given to us by God, according to the seasons to avoid the chaos.
The first month in the Hebrew calendar is not January.
The Lord said, "This month will be to you the beginning of months.
It will be the first month of the year to you” (Exodus 12:2).
The month the Lord was referring to was the month of Nisan (Esther 3:7), also called Aviv or Abib (Deuteronomy 16:1), which coincides with the months of March and April in the Gregorian calendar used worldwide.
