To  such  of  their  Subscribers  who  may  not  have  seen  their 
Notice  in  the  Jewish  press,  the  Editors  deem  it  proper 
hereto  explain,  that  on  the  2nd  Tamooz,  (8th  July,)  5613, 
there  appeared  simultaneously  in  the  New  York  "  Asmo- 
uean,"  two  advertisements  ;  one  from  J.  J.  Lyons,  announ- 
cing "  AN  American  Jewish  Calendar  for  Fifty  Years, 
WITH  Tables  for  its  continuation  for  One  Hundred 
\  ears  more,  together  with  other  useful  and  interesting 
information  &c ;"  and  another  from  Abraham  De  Sola, 
announcing  "  a  Jewish  Calendar,"  also  for  Fifty  Years, 
with  the  addition  of  "  various  important  Tables,  and  an 
Introductory  Essay  on  the  Jewish  Calendar  System." 
80  soon,  however,  as  their  intentions  became  known,  by 
means  of  these  advertisements,  to  the  Editors,  it  was  con- 
sidered desirable  by  them  and  by  some  respected  friends,  to 
uidte  in  07ie  piilUciiion  the  best  features  of  both  vf orks. 
This  was  accordingly  done,  and  an  announcement  to  that 
c^ffe-c.t,  appeared  ;in  the  "  Asmonean"  of  9th  Tamooz,  (15th 
July.)  The  Editors  have  now  only  to  express  again  their 
liope,  that  the  claims  of  their  work  to  the  support  of  the 
•Jewish  public,  may  be  found  not  the  less  enhanced  by  this 
(combination ;  and  that  the  increased  care  and  attention 
which  they  have  been  enabled  thereby  to  bestow  in  the 
preparation  of  their  present  Jewish  Calendar,  may  render 
it  as  generally  useful  and  acceptable  as  possible.

To  the  pious  and  intelligent  Israelite,  few  subjects  of  study,  out  of 
the  pages  of  the  holy  law,  possess  greater  interest  or  importance  than 
an  inquiry  into  the  nature  of  the  Jewish  Calendar  system.  The  inter- 
est of  this  inquiry,  he  recognises  in  the  partial  light  it  throws  upon  the 
scientific  attainments  of  his  fathers  in  centuries  long  past ;  and  its 
vital  importance  he  readily  acknowledges,  because  that  in  the  rules 
and  principles  comprising  this  system,  he  perceives  the  means  by 
which  he  may  accord  a  due  observance  to  all  the  enactments  of 
God's  law,  having  reference  to  sacred  days,  times  and  seasons.  He 
recollects,  too,  that  without  a  fittmg  adjustment  of  the  mode  of 
computing;  time  in  the  Sacred  Writings  with  the  one  which  he  now 
adopts  from  the  land  of  his  sojourn,  he  may  be  led  unwarily  to 
perceive  in  these  writings,  appnrent  inconsistencies  and  contradictons 
with  which,  from  ignorance,  tlie  bold  and  conceited  sceptic  has,  in 
fact,  charged  the  word  of  God,  but  which,  with  a  little  inquiry  and 
trouble,  he  may  readily  remove.  For  these  reasons  alone,  then, 
does  he  regard  this  branch  of  knowledge  as  a  most  valuable  and 
efficient  auxiliary  to  his  due  understanding  and  observance  of  that  law 
which  is  his  inheritance : — For  these  reasons  alone,  also,  it  may  be 
considered  as  neither  an  unfitting  nor  unacceptable  adjunct  to  The 
Jewish  Calendar,  should  we  now  attempt  to  explain  the  Jewish 
method  of  computing  time,  and  buefly  to  elucidate  a  Calendar 
system,  venerable  as  it  is  excellent.  We  purpose  doing  this  by 
making  such  remarks  as  our  limits  will  permit,  under  those  heads 
which  the  subject  rightfully  includes.     And  first  of  Hours. 


A  A  O  Q  '■}  "^ 


There  i?  mad&  nV  dH-ect-tnention  of  Hours  in  the  law  of  Moses 
or  in  the  historical  portions  of  the-Jewish  ScrijDtures.  The  first  use  of 
tlto^ti^rnv^ij/i^/Qr  VathcT  itsChiJdaic  emphatic  form  anv^,  which  is 
geneyairyac'ceptc'd  as  au'equivalent  to  the  English  temi  "  hour,"  oc- 
curs in  Daniel  iii,  G.  Theonlyother  passages  in  which  it  occurs,  is 
in  the  same  book,  chapters  iii,  15  ;  iv,  16  ,  English  version,  19  ;  iv  30, 
(E.  V.  33)  and  v.  5, — in  all  which  it  has  generally  been  rendered 
"  hour"  by  the  Hebrew  commentators ;  though,  as  it  is  confessed,  an 
indefinitely  short  period  of  time  is  rather  understood,  than  one  equal 
to  the  24th  part  of  a  natural  day.  The  passages  which  might  be 
best  understood  as  referring  to  this  latter  length  of  time,  are  probably 
iii,  6 ;  iii,  15.  And  while  it  has  been  advanced  with  reference  to 
iv.  19,  that  it  is  not  probable  Daniel  should,  literally,  detain  the 
king  for  one  hour,  during  which  time  we  there  learn  he  "was  astonied," 
(Knn  nyu'S  ar^inrht)  it  may  be  replied  that  some  warrant  for  this 
interpretation  is  to  be  found  in  the  explicitness  of  the  text,  which 
has  not  only  the  definitive  Nnn  (one)  but  the  preposition  D  (as  or 
about)a.nd  that  about  or  nearly  an  hour  elapsed,  ere  Daniel  could 
collect  himself,  to  tell  Nebuchadnezzar  his  dream.  It  is  certain, 
however,  and  must  be  stated  in  this  connexion,  that  in  the  Talmud 
and  other  Post-Biblical  writings,  ni*u>  is  frequently  used  in  this 
indefinite  sense  ;  e.  g.  in  the  Shulchan  Aruch,  Treatise  Tephilah, 
chap.  93  §  1  ;  it  is  recommended  to  pause  one  hour  (nyir)  before  and 
after  engaging  in  prayer  ;  though,  even  here,  some  commentators  un- 
derstand the  word  literally.  But,  if  even  we  give  up  these  passages, 
this  will  not  prove  that  the  Israelites,  long  before  the  closing  of  the 
Scriptural  canon,  did  not  divide  their  days  into  24  equal  parts.  For, 
first,  we  have  to  take  into  account  the  great  astronomical  knowledge 
obtaining,  even  then,  amongst  them.  As  Jahn  aptly  remarks,  "  The 
interests  of  agriculture  and  navigation  required  some  knowledge  of  as- 
tronomy." Moreover,  it  is  traditionally  maintained  that  this  know- 
ledge was  even  antediluvian ; — Adam  being  a  great  astronomer.  Cer- 
tain is  the  fact,  that  the  great  length  of  the  antediluvians'  lives  was 
veryfavorable  to  the  acquisition  ofastronomical  knowledge  and  obser- 
vation. Josepli  in  his  dream  speaks  of  the  sun,  moon  and  eleven  stars 
bowing  down  to  him,  the  twelfth  ;"  thus  referring  to  the  constellated 
signs  of  the  Zodiac,  in  whose  bounds  the  sun  and  moon  are  always 
found.  Jacob  in  his  blessing,  specifies  these  signs.  Reuben,  *  unstable 
as  water'  is  Aquarius,  "h-].  Simeon  and  Levi,  coupled  together 
as  '  brethren',  represent  Gemini,  the  twins,  d-onh.  Judah,  a  'lion' 
is  Loo,  n-nK.  Zebulun,  '  dwelling  at  the  haven  of  the  sea',  repre- 
sents its  production.  Cancer,  the  crab,  (toiD.  Issachar  the  'servant 
unto  tribute,'  is  Taurus,  the  bull,  -nu',  which  the  ox  was  to  man  in  his 
labors  in  the  field ;  and  it  is  to  be  noted  that  the  Septuaghit  reads  for 
a"i3  "ion  '  a  tiller  of  the  ground.  The  three  signs  under  which  Dan  is 
represented,  follow  one  another  in  the  same  positions  as  in  our  Zodiac. 
He  is  a  'Judge,'  Libra  or  equal  Balance,  D'^tko  'He  biteth  the 
horse's  heel,'  just  the  position  of  Scorpio  with  respect  to  the  Centaur 
or  horseman,  representing  Sagittarius.  Gad  is  Sagittarius,  the 
Archer,  nxfp,  Asher,   '  royal  dainties,  is  Pisces  o*n.  Naphtali,  is 


A.ries,  the  ram,  vh\2.  Joseph,  tho  '  fruitful  bough,'  is  Virgo,  nbina. 
Benjamin  is  *  the  wolf,'  which  recently  supplied  the  place  of 
Capricorn,  and  which,  even  in  later  times,  is  represented  in  the 
Zodiacs,  as  being  led  bj  Pan  with  a  wolf's  head.  Hence  we  may 
conclude  that  the  sphere  was  known  to  the  Jews  at  least  5C60  years 
ago;  which  agrees  with  the  opinion  of  Sir  William  Jones,  who  traces 
the  Indian  Zodiac  to  have  beeen  known  and  represented  by  animals 
3000  years  ago.  There  is  little  doubt,  also,  that  this  Hebrew  Zodiac 
is  the  Mazzaroth  spoken  of  by  Job  in  his  astronomical  allusion  to  the 
celestisl  constellations."*  The  intercourse  of  the  children  of  Jacob 
with  tlie  Egyptians  was,  no  doubt,  also  instrumental  in  promoting 
their  astronomical  knowledge.  Moses,  who  was  learned  in  the 
wisdom  of  Egypt,  apart  from  other  considerations,  must  have 
increased  it :  and  so  must  many  of  the  succeeding  rulers  and  dignita- 
ries in  Israel,  the  wise  Solomon  especially,  in  whose  days,  there  is 
much  reason  to  believe  that  time  measures  were  in  use  among  the 
Hebrews, ;  though  there  is  no  express  mention  made  of  these  in 
Scripture  until  the  days  of  xUiaz,  some  two  centuries  and  a  quarter 
later.  In  2  Kings,  sx,  9, — 11.  we  read  that,  at  the  request  of  Hezekiah, 
"  the  shadow  was  brought  10  degrees  backward  by  which  it  had  gone 
down  in  the  nibyo  (E.  V.  dial)  of  Ahaz."  Without  entering  into 
the  lengthy  discussion  which  has  arisen  among  biblical  critics  as 
to  what  this  dial  of  Ahaz  really  was,f  we  find  that,  about  seven  centu- 
ries and  a  half  before  the  Christian  era.  tlie  Jews  were  cognisant 
of  the  means,  and  employed  them  too,  for  marking  the  progress  of 
time  by  the  sun.  And  this  knowledge  they  did  not  acquire  from 
Grecian  civilisation:  since,  as  has  been  shown,  it  was  only  in  the 
days  of  Auaximander,  two  centuries  after  Ahaz,  that  the  first  sun- 
dial was  introduced  into  Greece,  and  that,  it  is  said,  was  brought 
from  the  East  by  his  contemporary  Pherecydes ; — an  assertion 
supported  by  Herodotus,  who  says  that  the  Greeks  learned  from  the 
Babylonians  how  to  divide  the  day  into  hours  or  twelfth  parts.  But 
whether  the  Ba,bylonians  themselves  acquired  this  knowledge  from 
the  Jews,  or  the  Jews  from  them, is  deemed  by  many  learned  critics 
an  open  question.  That  their  days  were  divided  into  12  hours 
previous  to  the  destruction  of  the  second  Temple,  both  for  civil  and 
ecclesiastical  purposes,  is  very  evident  from  the  earliest  rabbinical 
writings ;  but  to  this,  further  reference  will  be  made  in  our  remarks 
on  DAYS.  Before  this  epoch  also,  we  find  the  elepsvdra  used  as  a 
time  measure.  This  instrument,  described  by  travellers  as  being  in 
use  in  Persia  as  late  as  the  17th  century,  was  a  small  circular  vessel 
of  thin  metal,  perforated  beneath,  and  placed  in  another  vessel  filled 
with  water.  The  diameter  of  the  perforation  was  made  of  such  a  size, 

*  See  the  Commentators,  and  "Lecture  on  the  Philosophy  of  the  Jews,"  by 
Aurthur  Lumley  Davids,  London,  1S33. 

■f  According  to  some,  the  ancient  Jewish  dial  was  a  kind  of  stairs  or 
steps,  the  time  of  day  being  distinguished  not  b3'  lines,  but  by  steps  or  degrees; 
and  the  shade  of  the  sun  moving  forward  every  half  hour  to  a  new  degree. 
According  to  others,  among  them  Parkhurst,  the  dial  was  not  horizontal  but 
vertical,  on  which  the  sun  descended  from  sunrise  till  noon.

that  it  filled  in  thi*ee  hours  and  then  sunk.  The  time  occupied  in  its 
filling  four  times,  was  therefore  a  day.  To  rectify  it  to  the  change  of 
time  in  winter,  when  the  days  are  shorter,  it  was  covered  internally 
with  wax,  that  the  water  might  the  sooner  subside  from  it. 
This  division  of  the  day  into  hours,  at  this  early  period,  is  also  seen 
from  the  prescriptions  of  the  Talmud,  having  reference  to  the  due 
time  for  the  reading  of  the  ];::):;  Deut.,  vi  4, 10,  &c.  and  the  nT?:j;  or 
Eighteen  Blessings,  which  we  will  here  set  down.  The  time  for 
reading  the  Shcmang  is  stated  in  the  Shulchan  Aruch  (chap.  58  §  1) 
to  be  from  that  early  part  of  the  morn  when  one  is  able  to  recognise  a 
well  known  companion  at  a  distance  of  about  four  amoth ;  ani  its  time 
may  be  prolonged  until  the  third  hour  of  the  day  (9  o'clock)  which  is 
a  fourth  part  thereof.*  It  is  recommended,  however,  to  read  it  at 
sunrise,  like  the  ancient  pious  ;  while  to  defer  doing  so  until  1 0  o'clock, 
is  to  lose  the  merit  of  punctuality.  The  time  for  reading  the  morn- 
ing prayer,  including  the  Amidah,  according  to  the  same  authority 
(chap.  89  §  1.)  commences  with  sunrise  and  lasts  till  the  end  of  the 
4th  hour,  (10  o'clock,)  wliich  is'a  third  part  of  the  day.  fThe  time 
for  the  additional  service  is  immediately  after  the  morning  service; 
and  thougli  this  prayer  ought  not  to  be  delayed  until  after  one  o'clock, 
it  is  permitted  to  read  it  all  day.  The  time  for  the  afternooti  prayer 
is  (S.  A.  chap.  233  §  1)  from  after  the  9|th  hour  (half  past  3)  until 
night, which  is  styled  Minc'kah Kctanah or  Lesser  Minchah,  according 
to  R.  Jehudah,  until  nn::2n  3b3  which  is  until  a  quarter  before  the 
11th  hour,  :j:while  Mi7icha  Gedolah,  or  the  Greater  Mincha  is  from 
half  past  twelve,  till  half  past  three.  From  the  Hagah  or  Gloss  on 
this  passage,  founded  on  Maimomdes,Hilchot  Tephilah,  we  learn  that 
these  hours  are  to  be  reckoned  in  accordance  with  the  length  or 
shortness  of  the  days  at  particular  seasons.  A  long  as  well  as 
short  day  is  divided  for  ecclesiastical  purposes,  into  12  parts  or  hours, 
and  by  this  rule  have  Israel's  sages  ever  been  guided.  For  secular 
purposes,  the  day  was  reckoned  from  6  A.M.  till  6  P.M.  in  contradis- 
tinction to  the  ecclesiastical  day  which  was  D-lDiDn  nwir  li;  "iniiT!  mbyo 
from  morning  dawn  until  the  appearance  of  the  stars.  The 
lime  for  the  Evening  prayer  is  from  the  appearance  of  the  stars 
until  midnight,  though  in  emergent  cases  it  may  be  read  till  the  next 
morning  dawn.  From  the  above,  some  authors  have  distinguished 
the  Jewish  hours,  1st,  as  lesser,  of  which  the  day  contained  12 :  and 
2d,  as  GREATER,  of  wliich  the  day  contained  four,  each  of  these  four  con- 
taining three  lesser  hours,  which  latter  they  style  day  hours,  and  the 
greater  they  call  Temple  or  prayer  hours.    In  Nehemiah  ix,  3  we 

•Dvn  run  «inti^  mrti^  'j  i^id  ir  mm  "^u^aji

read  Israel  read  one  fourth  part  of  the  day,  and  another  fourth  part 
they  confessed,  and  hence,  Mayer  and  others  think  that  the  greater 
hours  or  quarters  were  in  use  even  in  the  time  of  Nehemiah.  The  first 
of  these  greater  hours  commenced,  according  to  some,  at  six,  according 
to  others  more  corectly  at  sunrise,  and  lasted  till  nine;  the  second  ended 
at  noon ;  the  third,  in  the  middle  of  tlie  afternoon,  or  a  quarter  to 
3  ;  the  fourth,  at  sunset,  or  a  quarter  to  6.  Others  insist  upon  their 
having  been  only  three  greater  hours  of  prayer,  the  morning,  after- 
noon and  evening  ;  the  first,  asserts  tradition,  instituted  by  Abraham ; 
the  second,  by  Isaac  ;  and  the  third,  by  Jacob.*  The  practice  of  Daniel 
gives  support  to  this  asserted  division  of  tlie  day.  We  read  vi,  11, 
(10  E.  V.)  that  he  "  kneeled  upon  l)is  knees  ihree  times  a  day,  and 
prayed,  and  gave  thanks  before  his  God, as  he  did  aforetime."  Upon 
■which  passage,  R.  Sii.idioh  Hagaon  remarks — "These  three  occa- 
sions upon  which  Uaiuel  prayed  were,  the  n-inu'  morning,  nnDO 
afternoon  and  n'my  evening  prayers.  But  lest  thou  shouldest 
say  the  practice  was  not  a  constant  one  with  him,  but  only  com- 
menced that  day,  to,  the  text  saith  kh  nonp  ]n  ^2l^  mn  n  bip  ba 
which  means,  'as  he  had  been  accustomed  to  do  before,'  and  it 
was  in  consequence  of  this  practice  that  the  men  lay  in  wait 
to  condemn  him".  We  find  that  the  practice  of  Daniel  was 
the  practice  of  David  ;  for  the  Psalmist  exclaims,  "  Evening 
and  at  morning  and  at  noon  will  I  pray;" — Psalms,  Iv  17.  We 
would  remind  the  reader,  in  concluding  our  I'cmarks  on  hours,  that 
these,  being  numbered  from  the  rising  of  the  sun,  at  the  season  of  the 
Equinox,  the  Srd  would  correspond  with  the  9th  of  the  common  reck- 
oning, 6th  with  the  12th,  9th  with  3  in  the  afternoon,  etc.  It  is  also 
proper  to  remember  tliat  the  sun  in  Palestine,  at  the  summer  solstice, 
rises  about  five  of  London  time,  and  sets  about  seven.  At  the 
winter  solstice,  it  rises  about  seven,  and  sets  about  five. 

The  Hebrews  also  divided  their  Nights  into  greater  portions  or 
hours,  called  m"':u'K  or  watches.  We  find  reference  made  to  three 
such  in  the  pages  of  Scripture.  First,  we  have  m-io-,:'x  U'N'T  (See 
Lament,  ii.  19)  the  herjining  of  tht  ivatches  or  first  watch,  which  is 
affirmed  to  have  continued  till  midnight.  Second  nDiD-nn  mou^K 
middle  watch\  from  midnight  till  cock  crowing ;  (Judges  vii.  19) 
Third, -ipnn  m*2Ui'K  from  the  second  watch  till  sunrise,  (Ex.  14, 1  Sam. 
xi.  ii).  These  divisions  of  the  night  have  been  referred  to  the 
watches  of  the  Levites  in  the  Temple,  and  to  the  change  of  watch- 
men at  the  gates  of  the  city  and  the  Temple.  From  the  Orach 
Chayimchap.  1  §  2  it  would  appear  that  the  changes  of  the  watches 
were  three  only,  at  the  end  of  the  first  third,  of  the  second  third, 
and  at  the  end  of  the  night,:}:  consisting  thus  of  four  hours  each.    And 

*  Talmud  Treat,  Berachot,  fol.  26,  b.  From  these  prayer  hours  the  Roman 
Catholic  Church  has  originated  her  canonical  hours. 

■f  Those  who  assert  the  nij?ht  watches  to  have  been  four,  maintain 
that  the  middle  watch  was  so  called,  not  because  there  were  three  watches, 
but  because  it  lasted  till  midnight.  But  this  appears  to  be  more  fanciful  than 
correct ;  for  by  the  same  rule  the  succeeding  watch  might  be  so  called,  because 
it  commenced  at  midnight.

the  author  of  the  nan  iki  says,  we  are  always  to  consider  the 
night  to  consist  of  twelve  hours  whether  in  summer  or  in  winter.*  It 
has  been  asserted,  however,  that  prior  to  the  destruction  of  the 
Becond  Temple,  these  watches,  whether  for  convenience,  or  whether 
from  adoption  of  Roman  custom,  were  increased  into  four,  which, 
according  to  the  En<^Hsh  moie  of  reckoning,  were  these  :  1st.,  The 
jSi'en«?i7?m^c'/?,  from  twili:j,-iit  till  nine  o'clock.  2nd.,  The  Midnight, 
from  nine  till  twelve.  3vd.,  lite  Cock-crowing,  divided  into  1st,  2nd  and 
3rd,  from  twe've  till  three.  4th.,  Jllorning,  from  three  till  break  of 
day.  But  we  do  not  think  the  evidence  in  maintainance  of  this  and 
other  divisions  so  satisfiictory  as  in  the  former.  From  Lam.  ii  19. 
and  Fs.  cxix,  148,  we  learn  th.it  the  Israelites  had  means  to  determine 
the  period  of  these  watches,  but  what  they  were,  is  not  stated.  And 
from  Ps.  cxsviii,  1  ;  Cant.iii,  3,  7,  we  find  that  there  were  watchmen 
whose  duty  it  was  to  perambulate  the  city  by  night,  and  doubtless  to 
proclaim  the  hour.  We  find  another  distinction  of  time  made  in  Scrip- 
ture, which  is  the  interval  D-n-iy^  rn  "  between  the  Evenings " 
Ex.  xii,  6;  xvi,  12,  &<2.  The  iirst  of  those  is  explained  to  have 
commenced  at  noon,f  tlie  latter  at  sunset,  including  thus  the  interval 
between  midday  and  sunset.  A  religious  act  required  to  be  per- 
formed D'-myn  r^  "between  the  Evenings"  must  therefore  be  carefully 
performed  before  sunset,  or  it  would  be  accounted  as  done  the  follow- 
ing day.  Tliis  period  and  that  expressed  by  the  phrase  '^'nii-n  NinD  myn 
"  in  the  evening  wlien  the  sun  goeth  down,"i.  e.  is  declining  wcstward- 
ly, appear  from  comparison  of  Ex.  xii.  6,  Numb  ix.  35.  with  Dent.  xvi. 
6,  to  be  identical.  The  n  in  myn  may  therefore  be  properly 
rendered,  toicards.  The  first  Evening,  according  to  some,  should 
be  properly  considered  as  commencing  at  the  9th  hour  of  the  day, 
(3  in  the  afternoon,)  and  the  latter  at  the  11th  hour,  (5  o'clock).  But 
see  the  remarks  on  Minchah  above. 

With  respect  to  Days  we  have  already  seen  that  these  were  divided 
into  12  hours  ;  that  the  civil  day  commenced  at  6  A.  M.  and  lasted 
till  6  P.  M.,  and  that  the  ecclesiastical  day  lasted  from  morning  dawn 
until  the  appearance  of  the  stars.  In  addition  to  this  division  into 
12  hours,  we  find  them  to  have  been  divided  into  three,  according  to 
some,  according  to  others,  four  portions  or  greater  hours.  We  have 
now  to  observe  that  like  the  Roman,  the  Hebrew  days  have  been 
distinguished  by  Biblical  Aroehceologists  into  1st.,  The  natural  day 
consisting  of  day  and  night,  and  including  24  hours ;  and  2nd,  the  civil 
or  artificial  day,  which  was  the  vulgar  computation,  beginning  with 
Bunrising,  and  terminating  with  sunset.  The  natural  day  was  either 
secular,  lasting  from  sunrise  till  sunrise ;  or  sacred,  lasting  from  sun- 
set to  sunset.     That  the  sacred  or  ecclesiastical  day  commenced 

*  Ancient  profane  authors  of  the  greatest  ceTiJbrity,  also  refer  to 
the  division  of  the  night  into  tln'oo  watches.  See  Homer  lUad,  lib.  x.  252, 
253.     Livy,  lib.  viii,  c.  xxxiv,  and  Xenophon,  Anab.  lib.  iv. 

f  It  is  also  stated  to  have  commenced  at  the  9th  hour  of  the  natural 
day,  i.  e.,  at  3  P.  M.,and  the  latter  at  the  llth,  i.  e.  5  P.M.  Josephus  informs 
us  that  between  these  (9th  and  llth  hours)  the  Paschal  sacrifice  was  offered 
in  his  time.     DcEell.  Jud   lib,  vi,  c.  1,  p.  3.

fi'om  the  evening,  is  evident  from  the  plain  direction  in  Leviticus 
xsiii.  32.  "  From  even  until  even  shall  ye  observe  you*-  Sabbaths," 
again  from  Ex.  xii.  18,  where  the  feast  of  unleavened  bread  is  order- 
ed to  be  observed  from  the  14th  day  of  the  month  at  even,  until  the 
21st  day  at  even;  and  again,  from  the  commencement  of  the 
Gemarrah  of  Berachot  on  the  passage,  "  it  was  evening,  it  was 
morning  "  Gen.  i.  5.  From  the  fact  that  the  loth  day  of  the  month 
is  called  the  morrow  after  the  Passover  (Numb,  xxxiii.  3)  which  was 
kept  on  the  14th  day  at  even  (Ex.  xii.  6),  as  well  from  the  command 
in  Leviticus  xxiii.  32  just  cited,  it  ha?  been  concluded  that  Israel, 
during  their  sojourn  in  Egypt,  reckoned  all  their  days,  both  civil  and 
sacred,  from  sunrise,  as  did  the  Babylonians  and  other  pagan  nations 
of  the  East,  but  that,  as  with  other  precepts,  God  commanded  this 
alteration  to  be  observed  by  them  in  direct  opposition  to  the  customs 
of  the  idolators  who  commenced  their  day  with  the  rising  of  the  sun 
in  honor  of  that  luminary  and  other  gods  ;  in  doing  wliich,  hovv'ever. 
He  only  restored  it  to  its  original  epocha  intimated  in  Gen.  1.  5.  but 
which  these  idolatrous  nations  had  taken  upon  themselves  to  alter.  In 
accordance  with  this  institution,  we  find  a  day  styled  ~ipn  my  i.  e, 
"  evening-morning"  in  Daniel  vii.  1-4.  This,  the  Greeks  expressed 
by  their  vvx^ili''<^pov  (nuchthemeron)  wliich  may  mean  any  part 
or  the  whole  of  a  day  or  night.  A  thing  that  has  lasted  two  nights  and 
one  whole  day  and  a  part  only  of  the  preceeding  and  following  days 
would,  therefore,  be  said  to  have  lasted  three  days  and  three  nights.* 
There  is  allusion  to  six  divisions  of  the  day  (i.  e.  from  sunrise  to 
Bunset)  in  the  Scriptures,and  accordingly,  into  six  parts  hasthe  Hebrew 
day  been  divided.  1st,  -irrii'  or  ^f^D  hrealcof  day,  wliich  was  more  re- 
cently, as  some  think  in  imitation  of  the  Persians,  divided  into  2  parts  ; 
the  first  when  the  eastern,  the  second  when  the  western,  portion  of 
the  horizon  became  illumined.  The  Jerusalem  Talmud  divides  it 
into  four  parts,  the  first  of  which  was  called  ''T'^t^  rb^tK  (according  to 
some  "  the  morning  star''  see  Kimchi  and  the  Commentators  on  Ps.22. 
1.)  2nd.  -ipn  morning  or  sunrise,  3rd.  ^rrt  on  heat  of  the  day,  beginning 
at  9  o'clock.  Gen.  xviii.  1.  1  Sam.  xxi.  11,  4th.  a-nni'  midday. 
5th.  Dvn  nil  cool  or  wind  of  the  day,  from  the  wind  which  generally 
commenced  blowing  a  few  hours  before  sunset  and  lasted  till  the 
evening,  Gen.  iii.  8.  6th.  i-iy,  evening : — It  is  to  be  remembered 
that  the  longest  day  in  the  Holy  Land  is  only  14  hours  12  minutes 
English  time,  and  the  shortest  9  hours  48  minutes. 

The  introduction  of  weeks  as  a  period  of  times,  dates  as  far  back 
as  the  Creation.  "God  blessed  the  seventh  day  and  sanctified  it,"  and 
henceforth  every  weekly  return  of  that  day  was  to  be  observed  as  a 
period  of  rest,  Gen.  ii.  3.     This  division  of  time  was  marked  in  the 

*  From  a  similar  custom  of  their  Gothic  ancestors,  introduced  from 
Germany,  the  Enj>:hsh  have  no  doubt  introduced  those  words  expressive  of 
such  a  mode  of  calculation,  as  fortnight,  sen'night,  &c.  According'  to  Ceasar, 
the  same  custom  prevailed  among  the  Celtic  nations.  "All  the  Gauls  "lie 
writes,  "  measure  time  not  by  the  number  of  days,  but  by  nights."  Accord- 
ingly they  observe  their  birth-days,  and  the  beginning  oi  months  and  years, 
in  such  a  manner  as  to  cause  the  day  to  follow  the  night.

days  of  Noah  and  by  liira  observed.  See  Genesis  vii.  4. 10.  viii.  10.12.* 
In  ch.  xxix,  27,  Laban  requires  Jacob  to  fulfill  Leah's  week,  ynu' 
{shabooang  a  week)  which  can  only  be  understood  of  the  seven  days  of 
the  marriage  feast,  in  contradistinction  to  the  O-rii'  ymr  seven  years  of 
service  specified  in  the  context.  The  ancient  marriage-feasts,  as  we 
find  it  expressly  stated  of  Samson's  (Judges  xiv.  12)  lasted  7  days. 
The  division  of  weeks  obtained  among  the  Israelites  previous  to  the 
delivery  of  the  law  (Ex.  xvi.  26,)  and  from  the  number  of  days 
assigned  to  the  seven  weeks  intervening  Passover  and  Pentecost  (Lev. 
xxiii.  15)  the  identity  of  the  weeks  of  the  Mosaic  law  is  sufiiciently 
established.  "With  respect  to  the  names  of  the  days  of  the  week,  we 
find  that  while  the  Egyptians  gave  to  them  the  same  designation 
which  they  assigned  to  the  planets,  the  Israelites,  on  the  contrary, 
were  directed  to  follow  such  a  nomenclature  as  would  always  remind 
them  of  institutions  they  were  called  upon  specially  to  uphold. 
The  names  of  their  days  therefore,  all  had  reference  to  the  Sabbath,| 
and  were  written  nsua  inx  one  day  on,  or  after  the  Sabbalh,  d'c.  &c. 
or,  7WN"i  Dv  the  first  day,  &c.  &c.  certainly  more  worthy  of  general 
adoption,  than  the  English  or  other  Saxon  terms,  which  suggest  so 
many  abominations  of  p  ganism.  The  whole  seven  days  were  also 
included  in  the  term  r\ii2/  which  may  therefore  be  rendered  "week" and 
n'yif'Z  nnx  one  day  in  the  week,  <fec.  There  have  also  been  distinguished 
as  extraordinary  or  prophetical  weeks,  the  following  periods :  1,  The 
week  of  loceks,  consisting  of  seven  weeks  or  49  days,  succeeded  by  the 
50th,  the  Pentecost,  or  Feast  of  weeks,  7rtvri]K0(Tri)  Dent.  xvii.  9. 10. 
2nd,  The  week  of  years : — This  consisted  of  seven  years,  during  the 
last  of  which  the  land  was  to  lie  fallow,  while  the  Israelites  were  to 
observe  it  as  a  period  of  rest  from  agricultural  labors.  See  also 
Dan.  ix.  24,  3rd,  The  week  of  seven  sabbatical  years,  consisting  of 
49  years,  which  were  succeeded  by  the  year  of  Jubilee.  Leviticus, 
XXV.  1,  22,  26,  34. 

It  would  seem  most  probable  that  Months  should  first  have  been 
measured  by  lunar  changes,  since  these  were  most  easy  of  observa- 
tion to  the  unassisted  eye  and  mind  ;  but  it  has  been  maintained  by 
many  eminent  Jewish  writers,:}:  that  the  months  observed  by  the 
Israelites  until  the  exit  from  Egypt,  were  solar.  We  cannot,  nor  is 
it  necessary  to,  enter  at  length  into  the  controversey  which  has  arisen 
in  consequence  of  this  position  ;  but  we  will  briefly  state  the  rea- 
sons and  computations  by  which  it  has  been  thought  to  be  estab- 
lished. The  waters  of  the  flood  are  stated  in  Scripture  to  have  pre- 

*  The  Nigri  in  Africa,  are  said  to  have  received  this  division  of  weeks 
from  the  sons  of  Noali.     See  Oldendorp's  Gesch.  der  Mission,  I,  308. 

■f  And  althougli  the  Hellenist  Jews  have  a  name  for  Friday,  yet  this 
also  had  reference  to  the  Sabbath,  for  it  was  Paraskeue,  i  e.  Preperation  for 
the  Sabbath.  This  was  also  the  method  of  counting  among  the  Arabians, 
Syrians,  and  other  Kastern  nations,  as  may  be  seen  from  the  Syriac  Calendar, 
cited  by  Home.

vailed  upon  the  earth  from  the  seventeenth  day  of  tte  2nd  month* 
(Gen.  vii.  11,)  until  the  17th  day  of  the  7th  month  (ib.  viii.  4)  which 
would  make  five  full  mouths.  We  also  find  from  Gen.  vii.  24,  that  the 
waters  prevailed  upon  the  earth  one  hundred  and  fifteen  days. 
Now  loO-r-5,  leaves  30  for  the  number  of  days  contained  in  each  of 
the  5  months.  It  has  been  objected  with  force  on  the  other  side,  how- 
ever., that  this  would  not  be  proof  sufficient,f  since  in  these  6  months 
there  would  be  about  2  days  deficient  of  the  riglit  time  ;-tlius,  12x30 
=360,  and  not  365  ;  as  required  for  the  solar  reckoning.  Our  limits, 
however,  suffer  us  not  to  dwell  longer  upon  this  question;;}:  but  be  it 
as  it  may,  it  is  clearly  established,  and  generally  admitted,  that 
from  the  period  of  tlie  command  to  elect  Nissan  as  the  beginning 
of  months  (Ex.  xii.  2)  the  Jewish  months  have  ever  been  lunar, 
being  either  a-Kbo/w/^,  containing  thirty  days,  or  a-nnn  deficient 
containing  29  days.  This  distinction  became  necessary,  because  of 
the  synodical  lunar  month  being  about  29^  days  ;  wliat  one  month 
would  be  deficient  of  this  time,  was  made  up  by  the  periodic  use 
of  the  other.  For  further  testimony  the  reader  is  referred  to  the 
book  of  Ecclesiasticiis  xliii.  6,  the  books  of  Maccabees,  Josephua 
Ant.  lib.  iii.  10.  and  Philo.  Vit.  Mos.  lib.  iii.  By  the  command 
Lev.  xxiii.  10,  IT,  to  bring  an  omer  of  first  fruits  to  the  priest  on  the 
morrow  of  the  Passover,  a  system  of  intercalation  arose  affecting 
the  number  of  months,  to  which  we  have  to  refer  hereafter.  The 
next  important  instituton  having  reference  to  months  we  find  in 
Numbers  x.  10,  where  the  beginnings  of  the  months  □D^ii'tn  ^V!ir\\  are 
directed  to  be  observed  with  due  solemnity.  Now  the  beginning  of 
the  month,  strictly  speaking,  is  when  the  moon  comes  into  conjunc- 
tion with  the  sun,  the  moment  of  which  conjunction  can  only  be  known 
through  an  amount  of  astronomical  knowledge  and  calculation 
which  there  is  no  evidence  to  show  the  Israelites  possessed  so  soon 
after  their  departure  from  Egypt.     The  commencement  of  the  festi-

f  The  reader  is  referred  particulary  to  the  Commentary  of  Aben  Ezra, 
on  Gen.  viii.,  3,  uliere  this  objection  is  stated. 

I  Sufficient  has  been  advanced,  however,  to  show  from  the  one  fact 
that  the  months  consisted  of  thirty  days,  the  utter  groundlessness  of  the 
assertions  mude  by  those  who,  although  generally  from  pious  motives, attempt 
to  explain  away  tlie  long  lives  of  the  antediluvians,  by  making  their  years  con- 
sist of  months,  &c,,  &c.  Apart  from  the  stigma  they  attach  to  the  Bible 
narrative  as  one  not  to  be  depended  upon,  since  when  it  states  one  thing 
another  is  meant,  the  incorrectness  and  absurdity  of  their  thesis  is  evi- 
dent by  taking  first  the  case  of  Adam,  lie  begat  Seth  when  he  was  130  years 
old,  wliich,  the  years  taken  as  months,  would  make  him  some  ten  years  old 
when  Seth  was  born.  Seth  being  ycjunger  than  Cain  and  Abel,  he  would 
according  to  this  computation  be  about  six  years  old  when  Eve  was  brought  to 
him,  a  gross  contradiction  of  Scripture,  which  speaks  of  the  woman  being 
taken  from  the  man.  Peleg  and  Serug  according  to  this  system  must  have  had 
children  when  about  three  years  old  !  others  aXfivc ! — Sed  Jam  satis  est.  Non-

val,  referred  to  in  the  text,can  only  be  understood  therefore,  of  the  first 
phasis,  or  appearance  of  the  moon,  which  God  ordered  as  a  season, 
that  they  were  fully  able  to  determine  themselves  and  by  their  own 
observation.  But  they  were  not  left  to  do  even  this,  for  as  it  was 
of  infinite  importance  that  the  matter  should  be  well  known  by 
Israel  generally,  not  only  that  they  might  observe  uniformly  and  at 
the  proper  time,  the  feasts  of  new  moon,  but  all  the  other  festi- 
vals also,  it  became  a  matter  proper  for  aiiihority  to  decide. 
Hence,  the  Talmud  affords  us  much  interesting  and  valuable  infor- 
mation on  this  important  subject,  preserving  a  traditional  account  of 
great  weight  and  of  almost  universal  acceptance  among  scholars 
both  J  ewish  aud  Christian,  as  to  the  manner  and  rules  for  determin- 
ing and  consecrating  the  new  moons,  some  of  the  most  important  of 
which  we  shall  here  append.  The  reader  will  please  remember 
that  the  beginning  of  the  Jewish  months  was  not  reckoned  from  the 
moon's  conjunction  with  the  sun,  but  from  the  time  the  former  emer- 
ges from  the  latter,  and  is  first  visible  in  the  west  after  sunset ;  and 
hence  the  appropriateness  of  applying  the  terms  m%  literally, 
"  moon,"  and  u'nn  "  renewal,"  to  express  "months"  in  Hebrew,  since 
they  actually  commenced  with  the  renewal  of  the  appearance  of  the 
moon."""  This  premised,  we  proceed  now  to  condense  from  the  Mishna, 
(Treatise  Eosh  Hashanah)  the  information  above  referred  to,  interpo- 
lating some  necessary  explanations,  and  referring  the  English  rea- 
der to  Revs.  De  Sola  and  Raphall's  Translation,  (p.  157,)  for  further 
details. 

Ch.  1  §  3.  Messenj^ers  were  sent  out  from  Jerusalem  (to  announce  else- 
where the  day  on  which  tlie  Saiihedrin  had  fixed  the  last  new  moon)  for  the 
foUowina'  six  months,  for  Nijsan  on  accoinit  of  the  Passover  ;  Ah,  for  the  fast ; 
Elul,  for  the  feast  of  New  Year;  Tishri,  for  the  regulation  of  the  festivals, 
Kislev  for  Hadnuka,  Adur  for  Purim,  aud  lyar  during  the  existence  of  the  2nd 
Temple  for  the  second  Passover.  §  4.  For  the  new  moons  of  two  months, 
the  witnesses  might  profane  the  Sabbath  by  travelling  to  Jerusalem,  viz  :  for 
those  of  Nissan  and  Tishri,  because  on  these  months  only  the  messengers 
went  to  Syria,  and  the  festivals  are  regulated  by  them.  During  the  existence  of 
the  2nd  Temple,  the  Sabbath  might  be  profaned  for  any,  because  ot  the  regu- 
lation of  the  offerings  on  the  feast  of  new  moon  on  their  proper  day.  §  6. 
Even  had  the  new  moon  been  seen  high  on  the  horizon,  (and  there  was  reason 
to  believe  therefore  it  had  been  seen  in  Jerusalem,)  the  Sabbath  might  be 
])rofaned  by  the  witnesses,  nor  were  they,  as  is  seen  in  §  6,  for  any  reason  to 
be  detained  in  their  progress.  With  respect  to  the  witnesses.  §  7,  Father  and 
.son  and  relatives  m  every  degree  may  be  allowed  as  competent,  but  (§  8) 
immoral  characters,  such  as  gamblers,  &c.,  are  not  admitted  to  give  evidence, 
but  denounced  as  incompetent  witnesses.  Even  in  cases  of  inconvenience  or 
exigency,  witnesses  were  obliged  to  give  their  evidence,  (^  9)  and  in  the  event 
ot  their  being  unknown,  (Ch.  II.  §  1)  others  were  seat  with  them  to  testify 

*  It  is  also  he  remembered  that  there  are  three  kinds  of  months  do- 
pendent  upon  and  correspondent  with  the  three  following  revolutions  of 
the  Moon,  1st,  the  Tropical  being  of  27d.  7h.  43'  4"  6795.  2nd,  the  Sidereal  of 
27d.  7h.  43'  11"  52.59.  3rd.  the  Synodic  of  29d,  12h.  44.'  2,''  8283.  The  tropi- 
cal revolution  which  signifies  the  complete  revolution  of  12  signs  performed 
round  the  earth,  is  distinguished  as  a  periodical  month.  The  sidereal  which 
means  a  return  to  the  same  point  or  star,  is,  as  will  be  perceived,  a  few  seconds 
longer  than  the  tropical,  because  of  the  precession  of  the  equinoxes.  The 
synodic  is  the  time  from  one  conjunction  with  the  sun  to  another.  In  29d. 
12h.  44'  2''  8283,  the  moon  will  be  found  to  be  again  in  conjuunction  with  the 
sunlthe  earth  being  at  the  distance  of  29  °  6'  20"  2  from  the  point  of  the  former 
conjunction.

eonceminp:  their  character.  Formerly,  evidence  as  to  the  appearance  of  the 
Bew  moon  was  received  from  any  one;  but  when  the  heretics  corrupted  tlie 
witnesses,  it  was  ordained  that  evidence  sliould  be  received  only  of  those  whose 
good  character  was  well  known.  §  2.  Formerly,  fires  were  lighted  on  the  tops 
of  the  mountains,  to  announce  the  appearance  of  the  new  moon  ;  but  when 
the  Samaritans  led  the  nation  into  error,(by  lighting  these  mountain  beacons  at 
wrong  times,  to  mock  and  mislead  the  Jews,)  it  was  ordained  that  messen- 
gers should  be  sent  out.  §  3.  In  what  manner  were  these  mountain  fires 
lighted  ?  They  brought  long  staves  of  cedar  wood,  canes,  and  branches  of 
the  olive  tree,  also  the  coarse  threads  or  refuse  of  flax,  which  were  tied 
on  the  top  of  them  with  twine  ;  with  these,  they  went  to  the  top  of  the 
mountain,  lighted  them,  and  kept  them  moving  to  and  fro,  upward  and 
downward,  until  they  could  perceive  the  same  repeated  by  another  per- 
son on  the  next  mountain,  &c.  The  names  and  orders  of  the  mountain 
stations  are,  §  4,  Mount  of  Olives,  Sartaba,  Grophinah,  Hoveran,  and  Beth 
Baltin ;  they  did  not  cease  to  wave  the  flaming  brands  at  Beth  Baltin  to 
and  fro,  until  the  whole  country  of  the  captivity  (Babylon)  was  as  a  blazing 
fire.  §  5.  There  was  a  large  court  in  Jerusalem,  called  Beth  Yangzek,  where 
all  the  witnesses  *  met,  and  where  they  were  examined  by  the  Beth  Din. 
§  (3.  Their  examination  was  conducted  by  inquiring  of  the  oldest  of  the  first  pair 
(they  were  examined  according  to  their  priority)  as  to  the  form  of  the  moon, 
whether  her  horns  were  turned  towards  the  sun,  or  away  from  it  ?  to  the 
north,  or  south  of  it  ?  what  was  her  elevation  in  the  horizon  ?  towards 
which  side  was  her  declination  ?  the  width  of  her  disk,&c.  The  second  witness 
(of  the  pair)  was  then  examined,  and  if  his  testimony  agreed  with  that  of 
the  former,  it  was  declared  valid.  The  remaining  witnesses  were  then 
superficially  examined,  not  because  of  the  necessity  of  the  case,  but  to 
encourage  them  to  report  on  future  occasions.  §  7,  The  chief  of  the  Tribunal 
then  said,  '  The  feast  of  the  New  Moon  is  Mekoodash,'  (consecrated)  and 
all  the  people  proclaimed  after  him,  '  Mekoodash,  Mekoodash.'f  Whether 
the  New  Moon  had  been  seen  at  the  proper  time  (at  latest  31st)  or  not, 
it  was  consecrated.  §  8.  Raban  Garaliel,  prince  of  the  captivity,  and  chief 
of  the  Sanhedrin,  had  on  a  tablet,  and  on  the  walls  of  his  room,  various 
delineations  of  the  figure  and  aspects  of  the  moon,  which  he  showed  to  igno- 
rant witnesses,  asking  them  whether  it  was  of  tliis  or  of  that  form."  A 
very  interesting  and  important  case  is  mentioned  in  §  8  and  §  9,  bearing  on 
the  question  of  relative  weight  of  opinion  and  authority,  to  which  we  can 
but  refer  the  reader ;  for  here  we  must  conclude  our  extracts  from  the 
Mishna,  with  tlie  following; — Ch.  Ill,  1.  "If  the  Beth  Din  and  all  Israel  saw 
the  New  Moon,  (on  the  night  of  the  30th  day)  or  if  the  examination  of  the 
witnesses  had  already  taken  place,  but  it  had  become  dusk  before  the 
word  '  Mekoodash'  had  been  pronounced,  the  month  will  be  intercalary." 

,  *  Abendana  says,  "  It  seems  to  have  been  the  peculiar  ojBfice  and  em- 
ployment of  the  tribe  of  Issachar,  to  watch  the  lunar  changes,  and  they 
are  said  to  be  'men  that  had  understanding  of  the  times.'  1  Chron  xii.  32."

f  By  some,  David  is  said  to  allude  to  the  proclamation  of  the  New 
Moon,  when  he  says,  Ps.  Ixxxi,  3.  "  Sound  the  trumpet  on  the  New 
Moon,  &c."  The  present  form  of  proclaiming  the  day  on  which  the  feast  of 
the  New  Moon  is  to  be  observed,  is  well  known  from  its  insertion  in  the 
Jewish  Liturgy.  Not  so  well  known,  perhaps,  is  the  very  ancient  for. 
mula,  still  used  by  the  Jews  in  China,  where  they  are  supposed  to  have 
settled  soon  after,  if  not  before,  the  destruction  of  the  first  Temple.  (See 
Basnage,  Jost,  and  "  The  Jews  in  China,"  by  James  Finn,  Lon.,  1843.)  Here

From  the  Mishna  it  appears,  then,  that  during  tho  existence  of 
the  Sanhedric  court,  the  number  of  days  of  the  mouth  was  decided 
bj  them  ;*  that  this  number  was  made  to  be  dependent  by 
them  on  the  period  of  the  moon's"  phasis  ;that  if  it  was  seen  on  the  30th 
day,the  29th  was  decLired  the  last  day  of  the  month  ;  but  if  it  was  not 
seen  until  the  31st  day,  thU  was  appointed  the  first  day  of  another 
month.  Independently'  of  availing  tliemselves  of  actual  observation, 
the  Sanhedrin,  as  we  learn  historically,  were  possessed  of  great  astro- 
nomical knowledge,  being  obliged  by  their  office  to  apply  themsel- 
ves to  the  study  ;  and  having  occasion  also  to  refer,  in  consecrating 
the  months,  to  astronomical  calculations  of  a  complicated  cha- 
racter.f  When  the  practice  of  sending  messengers  to  communicate

'  Attend  and  listen,  ye'priests  and  Levites  I  The  rabbies  have  instituted 
and  fixed  tlie  new  moon  of  the  month  N.  N.  (the  next  following),  on  the 
first  day  of  the  next  week,  which  day  shall  be  the  first  day  of  the  month. 
This  shall  be  a  good  omen  for  us  and  all  Israel,  now  and  speedily.  May 
those  who  rest  in  the  dust  rise  speedily  from  their  dust;  may  tho  dis- 
persed (of  Israel)  be  gathered  ;  may  our  eyes  and  your  eyes  behold  the 
rebuilding  of  the  sanctuary,  the  re-establishment  of  the  temple,  and  the 
kingdom  of  Messiah,  Son  of  Uavid,  and  the  consolation  of  the  city  of 
Jerusalem.  Now  and  speedily  may  all  Israel  be  gathered.  Amen.'  Then 
follows  a  form  for  the  days  of  the  week,  inSyriac;  then  the  names  of  the 
months  (the  same  as  among  other  Jews),  beginning  with  Adar,  the  last 
month  of  the  Jewish  year,  then,  next,  the  second  Adar,  (in  an  interlunary 
year),  and  closing  with  Shebat,  the  eleventh  month  of  the  year." 

The  above,  which  is  extracted  from  the  "  Jewish  Intelligence,''  for  Ja- 
nuary, 1853,  may  with  confidence  be  referred  to,  as  proof  of  the  antiquity 
of  the  present  system  of  Hebrew  intercalation,  &c. 

*Parkhurst,  under  the  head  chodesh,  shows  "from  scripture,  that  the  Jewish 
months  are  not  synodical  months  ;  and  secondly,  that  in  the  passage  where 
chodesh  is  supposed  to  denote  the  visible  neio  moon,  it  hath  another  mean- 
Jng.'' 

•}•  These  facts  are  sufiicient  reply  to  the  author  of  "Modern  Judaism,"  who 
with  his  usual  blind  prejudice,  attacks  this  account  of  the  consecration 
juid  appointment  of  the  months  among  the  Hebrews,  by  an  argument  with 
which  any  assertion  in  sacred  and  profane  history  might  be  overruled.  It 
does  not  appear  to  him  satisfactory,  and  hence,  cannot  be  true.  The  case 
of  cloudy  weather  he  i)uts  in  support  of  his  objections,  is  weak  enough, 
and  sufficiently  exposes  his  prejudice  or  ignorance.  It  has  been  answered 
by  our  quotations  from  the  Mishna  above,  and  by  the  Abbe  Fleury,  in  his 
(Moeurs  des  Israelites,  IV,  3.)  who  justly  remarks,  "  The  air  is  so  serene 
in  Judea,  that  it  seldom  happened  that  the  clouds  hid  the  moon;  but  when 
it  did  so  happen,  the  error  it  occasioned  was  immediately  rectified,  and  not 
suitVred  to  pass  into  the  next  month."  And  indeed,  Mr.  Allan  seems  to 
be  himself  quite  aware  of  the  weakness  of  his  plea ;  at  least  he  stands  self- 
condemned  when  he  says,  (Modern  Judaism,  p.  365.  Lon.  EJ.,  1816.)  "  All 
irregularities  indeed  might  be  adjusted  by  an  earlier  or  later  intercalation 
of  a  13th  month.  But  this  is  a  ludicrous  tradition  of  the  Rabbles."  (lb. 
p,  366.)  It  must  become  amusing,  however,  even  to  those  who  are  not  fol- 
lowers  or  admirers  of  the  Rabbinical  Institutions,to  perceive  how  this  writer, 
jn  horror  of  one  ludicrous  tradition  of  the  Rabbies,  actually  recommends 


15 

the  appearance  of  the  new  moon  was  adopted,  it  became  obligatory 
upon  those  living  distant  from  Jerusalem,  who  could  not  receive 
the  news  sufficiently  early,  to  observe  an  extra  day  as  a  fes- 
tival, since  they  could  not  be  aware  whether  the  month  had  been 
pronounced  a  full  one,  or  not.  And  these  duplicate  festivals 
are  yet  observed  by  the  body  of  Israelites  living  out  of  the  Holy 
land,  notwithstanding  the  certainty  of  present  calculations,  on  pleas 
and  for  reasons  which  cannot  be  stated  here.  The  names,  and  other 
matters  connected  with  the  months  we  shall  consider  in  our  remarks 
upon  YEARS  to  which  we  now  proceed. 

In  the  Mishna  (Treat.  Rosh  Hashanali  cb,  I,  §  1.)  we  learn  that 
"  there  are  four  periods  of  commencement  of  years,  viz.  on  1st  Nissan 
is  a  new  year  for  computing  the  reign  of  kings*  and  for  festivals, 
(i.  e.  it  commences  the  ecclesiastical  year.)  The  first  of  Elool  is  a 
new  year's  day,  whence  to  compute  the  titheing  of  cattle.  The  1st 
of  Tishri  is  new  year's  day  for  the  ordinary  or  civil  year;for  the  compu- 
tation of  the  sabbatical  years  (Lev.  xxv.l.)  and  of  the  Jubilees;  for  the 
planting  of  trees,  (Lev.  six.  23,)  and  for  herbs.  On  the  1st  of  Shebat, 
according  to  Beth  Shammai,  on  the  15thaccordmg  to  Beth  Hillel,  is 
the  new  year  for  the  titheing  of  trees."  It  has  been  shown  by 
Hebrew  writers  that  Israel,  during  their  sojourn  in  Egypt,  reckoned 
their  years  from  the  1st  Tishri,  whereon,  it  is  most  generally  assert- 
ed, creation  commenced. f  But  that,  as  we  learn  from  Ex. 
xii.  2,  from  their  departure  out  of  Egypt,  Abib  or  Nissan  was  to 
be  henceforth  the  first  month  of  their  ecclesiastical  year,  while  for  all 
civil  purposes,  the  commencement  of  the  year  was  still  to  be  observed 
from  the  first  of  Tishri.  In  proof  of  this,  we  have,  besides  the  just 
cited  passage,  Ex.  xxiii.l6,  where  it  is  said  the  feast  of  Tabernacles  is 
to  be  observed  near  the  going  out  or  close  of  the  year,  tit^T)  hk  ■;2 
when  the  produce  of  the  fields  was  gathered  in.  Secondly,  from 
Ex.  xxxiv.  22  where  its  time  is  said  to  be  at,  or,  near  the  year's 
revcikition  or  end  nr^'n  naipn.ij:  Further,  we  have  Lev.  xxv.  9,  where 

anotiier,  uhknown  to  himself,  doubtless,  when  he  says,  "  The  more  correct 
presumption  is,  that  Moses  coiistructe<l  Lunar  and  Solar  Tables  for  the 
direction  of  his  successors,  in  the  reg-ular  solemnization  of  their  Passovers 
and  fi'asts.''  One  does  not  even  become  the  advocate  of  Rabbinical  dicta, 
when  he  requires  in  the  name  of  common  justice  and  common  fairness, 
something  more  than  a  re  erence  to  biassed  Latin  translations,  upon  ^vhicb. 
these  viould-be-critics  of  the  ancient  writings  of  the  Jewish  people,  found 
chiefly  their  groundless  and  unworthy  attacks.  For  a  longer  notice  of  Mr. 
Allans  remarks  here,  see  "Hebrew  Authors  and  their  Opponents,"  by 
Abraha.ii  de  Sola. 

*  If  a  king's  reign  commenced  but  a  week  before  Nissan,  this  week 
w'ould  be  acccunted  the  first  of  his  rcigu. 

f  In  the  Talmud  (Treat.  Rosh  Hashana)  we  find  R.  Eleazar  refers  the 
creation  to  the  month  Tishri,  at  the  period  of  the  autumnal  equinox  ;  but  R. 
Joshua,  to  Nissan,  the  vernal  equinox.  R.  Joshua's  dictum  is  generally  adopt- 
ed. The  question  is  fully  discussed  by  Abarbanel,  and  R.  Meuasseh  beu 
Israel  in  his  "Conciliator,"   (vol.  1,  p.  127,  Lindo's  edition.) 

X  The  fact  of  these  texts,  referring  rather  to  the  season  than  to  the 
month,  is  sufficient  refutation  of  Mr.  Allan's  objection  to  Abendana's  re- 
marks in  the  same  connexion,  ia^which  he  has  been  followed  literally,  by 
David  Le%'j.

the  Jubilee  is  ordered  in  the  seventh  month  ;  from  Joel  ii.  2S,  and 
fi'om  Joseplius.  We  have  already  said  that  the  months  of  which 
the  Jewish  year  consisted,  are  lunar.  But  since  12  lunar  months 
contain  only  354  days,  8  hours,  49  minutes  and  some  seconds,  thus 
falling  some  11  days  short  of  a  solar  year,  about  33  years  would 
carry  back  the  beginning  of  the  year,  through  all  the  four  seasons, 
to  the  same  point  again;  and  thus  a  complete  year  would  be  gained 
from  the  solar  computation.  Now,  while  the  Israelites  continued  in 
the  land  of  Canaan,  the  agreement  of  the  lunar  and  solar  years  was 
thus  secured  : — On  the  second  day  of  the  Passover,  which  was  the 
16th  of  the  first  month,  (Abib  or  Nissan)  an  omer  of  the  first  fruits 
of  the  ripe  grain  was  require!  to  be  offered  to  the  Lord,  (Lev.  xxiii, 
10,  11.)  When  the  last  month  of  the  ecclesiastical  year,  i.  e.,  Adar, 
had  arrived,  therefore,  and  it  was  discovered  from  the  backward- 
ness of  the  season,  dependent  upon  the  revolution  of  time,  that  the 
grain  was  not  sufficiently  ripened  for  the  offering,  an  extra  month 
called  Adar  Sheni  or  Veadar,i.e.,  the  second  Adar,  w.as  introduced, 
and  the  Passover  thus  observed  "  in  its  proper  season."  This  inter- 
calary month  would  be  required  to  be  employed  sometimes  every 
second,  and  sometimes  every  third  year.  There  were  other 
causes  besides  the  one  already  stated  for  the  intercalation  at  the 
Passover  period : — thus,  the  lambs  must  have  grown  sufficiently  for 
the  Passover  sacrifices ;  and  it  became  necessary  to  allow  time  for 
the  ripening  of  the  wheat,  so  that  the  two  loaves  offered  as' the  first 
fruits  of  their  wheat-harvest  could  be  brought  on  the  feast  of 
Weeks ;  again,  that  the  produce  of  the  field  might  be  gathered  in,  as 
required,  before  the  arrival  of  the  feast  of  Tabernacles.  The  15th 
of  Nissan,  then,  could  not  be  observed  as  the  first  day  of  the  Pass- 
over, if  it  occurred  before  the  vernal  equinox,  but  an  intercalation 
was  made  by  which  its  observance,  and,  consequently,  that  of 
the  other  festivals,  would  be  deferred.  Such  was  the  system  obser- 
ved during  the  Israelites  stay  in  Canaan.  There,  they  could  readily 
learn  the  decif^ions  of  the  Sanhedrin.  But  when  holy  city  and 
Temple  were  taken  from  them,  as  a  just  return  for  their  multiplied 
transgressions,  and  they,  themselves,  dispersed  in  every  quarter  of 
the  world,  it  became  necessary,  in  order  to  secure  the  uniform 
observance  of  their  sacred  days,  at  their  proper  season,  that  a  de- 
terminate system,  founded  upon  correct  scientific  principles,  should 
be  generally  adopted  by  Israelites  wheresoever  they  were  ;  and 
this  was  done.  We  are  told  that  to  attain  this  end,  and,  at  the 
same  time,  for  the  purpose  of  equalising  the  lunar  and  solar 
periods,  they  first  made  use  of  a  cycle  of  84  years,  which  was  adop- 
ted from  them  by  the  primitive  Christians  for  the  appointment  of 
their  Easter  for  several  centuries,  but  which  was  found  faulty ; 
whereupon,  both  Jews  and  Christians,  at  the  same  time,  adopted 
JMeton's  celebrated  c}'cle  of  19  years,  at  the  period  of  the  Council 
of  Nice  (A.C.  325).  But,  in  faet,  it  would  appear  that  this  cycle 
was  borrowed  by  Meton  and  Euctemon,  who  "  published  their  cal- 
culations to  the  Greeks  assembled  at  the  Olympic  Games"  from  the 


11 

ancient  Jewish  tables,  some  430  years  before  the  Christian  era,  and 
Voo  years  before  the  Council  of  Nice.*  The  Mishna,  compiled 
about  the  year  140  of  the  Christian  era,  refers,  in  numerous  pas- 
sages, to  the  intercalary  year ;  and  there  further  appears  in  its 
pages  numerous  indications  of  the  existence  of  general  principles  of 
a  calendar  system,  though  there  be  no  direct  statement  or  exposition 
thereof,  prior  to  the  public  teachings  of  those  great  and  learned 
men  to  whom  the  introduction  of  the  present  Jewish  Calendar 
system  has  been  referred.  The  first  of  these  we  notice  is  Rab  She- 
muel,  who  became  Rosh  in  Naliardcea,  in  A.  M.  3997,  according 
to  the  "Yuchasin"  and  "Tsemach  David"  of  Ganz.  Among  other  titles 
be  received  the  name  of  the  "Astronomer",  being  always  known  as 
-K^'n-i"  bxinu'' ")  because  of  his  especial  celebrity  in  that  science.  Of 
him  it  is  said  -ynn^T  -b-nu'S  N-nu^-T  ^V-iiu'  n^b  rin^T  that  the  paths  of  the 
heavens  were  as  familiar  to  him  as  the  roads  of  Nahardoea.  But 
in  still  higher  terms  is  his  contemporary,  Rab  Ada,  spoken  of. 
Although  most  branches  of  knowledge  were  familiar  to  him,  yet  he 
excelled  in  arithmetic.,  geometry,  and  astronomy.  The  great 
Maimonides  in  his  elaborate  treatise  limnn  inip  (Consecration  of  the 
months,)  speaks  in  approval  and  admiration  of  his  calculations — to 
which  he  accords  the  praise  of  perfect  contrivance,  and  astronomical 
exactitude,  as  indeed  do  all  scholars,  Jews  as  well  as  Christians, 
and  of  these  even  the  most  inveterate  opponents  and  detractors  of 
the  Rabbies.  Dean  Prideaux  says,|  "  His  work  may  be  truly 
reckoned  the  greatest  piece  of  art  and  ingenuity  that  is  to 
be  found  among  the  Jews."  In  short,  he  laid  the  foundations 
for  the  Jewish  Calendar,  which  the  eminent  Hillel  Hanasi, 
great  grandson  of  R.  Yehudah  Hakadosh,  the  compiler  of  the 
Mishna,  completed  : — "It  is  the  same  system  which  we  now  follow, 
and  w!  icli  we  shall  ever  follow  througliout  the  dispersions  of  Israel, 
until  the  coming  of  our  redeemer.":]:  The  peculiarity  of  Rab 
Ada's  system  was  the  introduction  of  fractions  (Slths)  which  Rab 
Shemuel  had  not  publicly  taught.  According  to  Rab  Ada,  the 
solar  year  contained  365  days,  6  hours,  55  minutes,  25|^  seconds. 
The  lunar  month  from  one  conjunction  to  the  other  29  d  ,  12  h.,  44' 
Sy,  and  the  lunar  cycle  of  19  years  6939  d.  16  h.  33'  3i".  This 
calculation  upon  which  the  Jewish  Calendar  is  based,  so  agree3 
with  the  Gregorian,  or  New  Style,  in  use  among  Christians,  (intro- 
duced, be  it  remembered,  by  Pope  Gregory  XIII,  as  late  as  1582 
of  the  Christian  era,  some  fourteen  centtirics  after  the  publication  and 
adoption  of  Rab  Ada's  calculations,)  that  there  arise  only  a  differ- 
ence of  about  two  days  in  five  centuries.  The  scheme  generally 
adopted,  upon  authority  of  Hillel  Hanasi,  in  further  detail,  is  this  : 
— The  Cycle  consists  of  19  lunar  years,  and  contains  235  months, 

*  Even  Mr.  Allan  joins  the  learned  Dr.  Hale  in  this  opinion,  which  has 
been  ably  maintained  by  the  celebrated  Anatolius,  Bishop  of  Laodicea,  A,C, 
270.

*  A  difference  of  opinion  exists  with  reference  to  the  order  of  the  emhoiis- 
mic  series,  According  to  the  Kabbies  they  are  the  3rd,  6th,  8th,  11th,  Htli, 
16th  and  19th.  K.  Gamhel  says  they  are  the  3rd,  6th,  8th,  11th,  14th,  19th  : 
and  R.  Eleazar,  3rd,  5tli,  8th,  11th,  14th,  16th,  19th.

twelve  synodical  lunar  months,  each  of  which  has *a  suitable  name  given  to

Prom  tiie  above  it  appears  that  the  following  months  are  always 
Q-Nbo  Full,  or  having  3u  days,  viz.  Nissan,  Sivan,  Ab,  Tishree,  Shebat; 
while  the  following  are  ancn  deficient,  having  29  days,  Iyar,Tamooz, 
Elool,  Tebet,  Adar  ;  the  latter,  however,  having  30  days  in  Bissex- 
tiles, and  Adar  Sheni,  29.  With  respect  to  Heshvan  and  Kis- 
lev ;  these  are  sometimes  borh  full,  in  other  words,  Heshvan  has 
sometimes  30  days  when  Kislev  will  also  have  the  same,  and  then 
the  year  will  be  no-bu'  Perfect ;  sometimes  both  are  deficient, 
when  the  year  will  be  r\'^'cn  Imperfect ;  sometimes  Heshvan  is 
deficient  and  Kislev  full,  when  the  year  is  mnDD  Ordinary.  As 
intimated  elsewhere,  the  variations  in  these  months  have  the  effect 
of  securing  an  observance  of  the  Passover  in  its  due  season,  and 
also  an  agreement  with  the  synodical  lunar  month — thus,  to  avoid  a 
deficiency  of  some  44^  minutes  every  month,  amounting  to  nearly 
nine  hours  in  twelve  months,  an  additional  day  is  periodically 
given  to  Heshvan,  which  then  contains  30  days.  When  Heshvan 
and  other  months  contain  30  days,  the  thirtieth  day,  as  well  as  the 
first  of  the  succeeding  month,  is  observed  as  u-nn  ti'Nn  the  feast  of 
New  Moon;  for  since  the  synodic  month  contains  only  29d.  12  h. 
44'  2"  8283,  it  is  evident  that  one  half  the  thirtieth  day  is  in  the  old 
month,  and  the  other  half  in  the  new,  in  which  manner  they  could 
not  be  observed  according  to  Jewish  custom,  full  distinct  days  being- 
required,  and  these  "  from  evening  to  evening," — hence,  the  whole 
day  is  observed,  and  of  necessity,  the  morrow,  being,  as  it  is,  the 
first  day  of  the  new  month.  From  1st  Samuel,  xx,  5,  compared 
with  verse  27  of  the  same  chapter,  it  would  appear  that  the  prac-

say,  because  the  trees  then  were  beautified  with  bails  and  blossoms;  others

tise  of  celebrating  these  two  days,  obtained,  even  in  the  days 
of  Saul,  say  2770  years  ago.  The  following  are  those  months* 
in  which  one  day  Rosh  Hodesh,  is  observed :  Kissan,  Sivan,  Ab, 
Tishri  and  Shebat,  the  Slman  of  which  is  kd^uti  ;  and  those 
on  which  two  days  are  observed,  lyar,  Tamooz,  Elool,  Marchesran, 
Adar,  Adar  Sheni,  the  Slman  of  which  is  KnNKO.  Kislev 
and  Tebet  have  sometimes  two  daj'^s,  sometimes  one  ;  thus,  when 
Heshvan  and  Kislev  are  both  full,  then  Kislev  and  Tebet  will  have 
two  days  R.  H.,  and  when  these  are  both  deficient,  only  one.  When 
the  one  is  deficient  and  the  other  full,  then  Kislev  will  have  one,  and 
Tebet  two  days.  These  months  have  been  divided  into  four  portions 
called  msipn  Tekuphot,|  or  revolutions,  of  three  mon-ths  each, 
containing,  according  to  Rab  Ada,  94  days  519  helakim  or 
portions,  (for  facility  of  computation,  the  Rabbies  have  divided 
the  hour  into  1080  such  parts  ;  these  are  divisible  by  any  of  the 
units  but  7,)  and  31  seconds.  These  Tekuphot  receive  their  names 
from  the  months  with  which  they  commence.  We  have  thus  nHnpn 
^"3  Tekupha  of  Nissan,  at  the  vernal  equinox,  when  the  sun  enters 
Aries,  including  Nissan,  lyar  and  Sivan.  This  period  was  styled 
ynn  njr  seed  time.  In  this,  day  and  night  are  equal.  II,  nuTi  nt:r\pr\ 
The  Tekupha  of  Tishri,  at  the  autumnal  equinox,  when  the  sun 
enters  Libra,  including  Tishri,  Heshvan  and  Kislev,  called  T'l^nn  nu 
houseing  or  vintage  time,  when  the  day  and  night  are  equal.  In  the 
latter  month  of  this  Tekupha,  viz.  Kislev,  there  commences  the 
reading  of  the  prayer  called  Dirnn  nDin  the  proper  time  for  which, 
according  to  Rab  Shemuel,  is  60  days  after  the  siin  enters  Libra, 
which,  during  the  19th  century,  will  be  on  the  6th  October;  but 
thereafter,  in  consequence  of  1900  not  being  Bissextile,  it  is  to  be 
reckoned  from  the  7th.  Now  if  the  date  of  the  Hebrew  month  be 
sought  which  corresponds  with  6th  October,  which  is  generally  in 
Tishri,  the  same  date  in  Kislev  is  the  day  on  which  BarecU  Alenu, 
is  to  be  commenced  ;  except  in  a  perfect  year,  Bissextile,  or  ordinary, 
when  it  is  to  be  read  a  day  earlier.  In  a  year  preceding  a  Bissex- 
tile, it  is  one  day  later.  The  summer  prayer  commencing  li'-nx  iD3ia 
is  commonly  read  the  first  night  of  the  Middle  Days  of  Passover. 
III.  nntD  nH3ipn  The  Tekupha  of  Tebet,  at  the  period  of  the 
winter  solstice,  when  the  sun  enters  Capricornus,  including  Tebet, 
Shebat  and  Adar,  called  t)-Tinn  nv  the  stripping,  or  late  autumn  sea- 
son, when  the  nights  are  double  the  length  of  the  days.  IV.  n?2n  r\'li^pn 
Tekupha  of  Tamooz,  at  the  summer  solstice,  when  the  sun  enters 
Cancer,  including  Tamooz,  Ab  and  Elool,  called  '^■')iji-r,  ny  harvest  time, 
when  the  days  are  double  the  length  of  the  nights.:}:     The  general 

*  Distinguished  by  R.  Menasseli  ben  Israel,  in  his  "Thesoro  dos  Dinim"  as 
*'reyes"  and  "ministros." 

f  For  the  "  Tekuphat  Ilachamah"  see  the  "  Bcker  Yizrach ''  of  the  late 
revered  Rabbi  David  Meldola. 

i  The  year  was  also  divided  into  six  season  divisions  of  two  months  each 
viz  ;  Zerang,  Katsir,  Kor,  Chom,  Kayits,  €hor«ph.—{Q^xx.  viii.  22.)  The  first 
commenced  in  the  latter  half  Tishri,  &c. 


21 

rule  laid  down  for  the  appointed  time  of  tbe  Tekupbot  is  that  the 
Tekupha  of  Tebet  commences  eight  days  before  January ;  of  Nissan, 
seven  days  before  April;  of  Tamooz,  six  days  before  July;  of 
Tishri,  seven  days  before  October.  To  assist  the  memory,  a  lo'D  or 
memoria  tecJaiica  has  been  formed  in  the  word  fiTn,  each  letter 
of  which,,  being  a  numeral,  indicates  the  number  of  days  before 
each  month  when  the  Tekupha  commencen.  There  are  various 
other  meinorice  techniccc  and  rules  which  it  becomes  proper  now  to 
notice ;  and  first,  those  having  reference  to  the  days  on  which  the 
various  festivals  may,  or  may  not,  be  observed.  Here  they  fol- 
low : — 

I.  nrs  "^in  xb  i.e.,  the  first  day  of  the  Passover  may  not  be  celebra- 
ted on  n,  the  2nd  day  of  the  week,  Monday;  nor  t,  the  fourth,  "Wed- 
nesday; nor  \  the  sixth,  Friday.  Among  the  various  reasons 
assigned  for  this  rule  are,  that  if  the  Passover  occurred  on  the 
first  mentioned  day,  a  Monday ;  Rosh  Hashanah  (new  years  day) 
would  fall  on  Wednesday,  and  Kipoor,  the  Day  of  Atonement,  on 
Friday  ;  and  tlius  two  sabbaths  or  sacred  days  would  become  blended 
together,  which  must  not  be.  Purim  would  also  fall  on  Saturday, 
when  the  opposite  characters  of  the  feast  and  sacred  day  would  ren- 
der a  proper  and  consistent  observance  of  both  together,  at  one  time, 
impossible.  If  Passover  occurred  on  the  second  mentioned  day  n 
Wednesday,  then  Kipoor  would  fall  on  Sunday;  but  it  has  been  seen 
that  Kipoor  and  Sabbath  may  not  immediately  follow  each  other. 
If  Passover  occurred  on  the  third  mentioned  day,  t  Friday,  Rosh 
Hashanah  would  be  on  Sunday,  and  Hoshanganah  Rabah  on  Satur- 
day, on  which  latter  day  the  ceremony  of  taking  the  willow,tfec.,  could 
not,  in  conformity  with  traditional  interpretation,  be  performed.  11. 
niu'n  U'X"i  nnx  xb  i.e.,  Rosh  Hashanah  maj  not  be  celebrated  on  x,  Sun- 
day. T  Wednesday,  or  t  Friday.  The  rule  is  that  this  important 
festival  should  be  observed  at  the  time  of  the  monthly  conjunction, 
unless  this  occur  after  noon,  when  the  next  day  is  kept,  unless  it  and 
the  conjunction  in  the  first  instance  also,  be  on  nx  Sunday,  Wed- 
nesday or  Friday,  when  it  is  to  be  observed  on  Monday ;  Thursday 
or  Saturday.  If  the  conjunction,  in  an  ordinary  year,  take  place  at 
a  quarter  past  nine,  A.  M.,  (more  correctly  9  h.  11  m.  20  s.,)  on 
Tuesday,  then  New  Year's  day  will  be  deferred  two  days  later,  viz. 
uatil  Thursday  (e.g., in  5616;  see  the  Calendar,)  by  which  provision,the 
proper  number  of  daj^s  is  allowed  to  the  preceding  month,  Elool. 
When  the  conjunction  occurs  on,  or  after,  half-past  3,  P.M.,  (say  3  h. 
80  m.  52  s.)  on  Wednesday,  in  a  year  immediately  following  a  Bis- 
sextile, Rosh  Hashanah  is  then  observed  on  Tuesday,  (e.  g.  in  561*7  ; 
see  the  Calendar).  The  following  table  contains  a  continuation  of 
the  memorue  techjiicce  and  rules  for  the  removal  of  the  Festivals  i —

The  above  list  is  rectified  according  to  three  of  the  most  correct 
editions  of  the  "  Shulchan  Aruch/'  with  which  it  has  been  collated. 
There  are  discrepancies  between  it  and  some  Hebrew  writers  on 
the  Calendar,  (e.  g.  Abudaram,)  which  have  arisen,  no  doubt,  from 
mistakes  of  the  copyists,  or  from  printer's  errors.  They  will  be 
discovered  and  rectified  by  an  examination  which  our  limits  do 
not  allow  us  to  make  here ;  but  we  continue  with  the  Sima- 
nim: — We  have  already  seen,  that  to  secure  an  approximation 
of  time  between  the  Hebrew  and  synodical  month,  different 
numbers  of-  days  have  been  given  to  certain  months  at  cer- 
tain periods,  affecting  thereby  the  length  of  the  year.  It  will 
be  readily  concluded  from  the  above  table,  that,  in  consequence  of 
the  there  required  alteration  in  the  commencement  of  the  year  and 
months,  as  well  for  the  removals  of  the  festivals,  that  various 
other  modifications  in  the  lengths  and  forms  of  the  months  and 
years  must  take  place.  Thus,  there  are  not  less  then  f(jurteen  varia- 
t-o  o  in   the  form  of  the  year,  which,  as  in  the  table  above,  are 

•  We  have  also,  niU3TI1U''i;  ]  Kb,  i.e.  the  tontli  clay  of  Tebet,  which  is  tlie 
fast,  cannot  be  kept  on  Sabbath.  One  particular  reason  assigned  is,  that 
the  observance  of  the  fast  may  not  be  deferred,  because  it  is  said,  concerning 
it,  "in  the  self- same  day'' as  the  day  of  Atonement.  The  ** Beth  Yoseph " 
rejects  this  exposition  us  groundless, 


expressed  by  Shnanim  for  convenience  and  to  aid  the  memory. 
By  explaining  the  construction  of  three  such  Shnanim,  the  others 
will  be  easily  understood.  It  is  to  be  remembered,  that  the  first 
raid  last  letters  in  all  are  numerical,  e.  g.  I.  mra,  in  which  n  is  2,  and 
n,  5.  The  first  number  f  hows  on  what  day  of  the  week  Rosh  Hasha- 
nah  (the  commencement  of  the  civil  year)  occurs,  in  the  kind  of 
year  which  the  Siman  represents.  In  our  example  it  is  n  the 
second,  or  Monday.  The  last  number  shows  the  day  of  the  week 
on  which  Rosh  Hodesh  Nissan,  the  commencement  of  the  ecclesias- 
tical year,  and  also  the  Passover,  falls;  in  the  example  it  is  n,  or  Thurs- 
day. The  middle  letter  indicates  the  nature  of  the  year  and  ig 
either  u',  as  in  the  example,  the  initial  letter  of  nri-bir  Peifect,  in 
which  Heshvan  and  Kislev  will  be  both  full,  as  before  explained; 
w  n,  the  initial  of  mnn  Imperfect,  in  which  Heshvan  and  Kislev  are 
deficient;  or  it  will  be  D,  the  initicil  of  mnCD  Ordinary,  in  which 
Heshvan  is  deficient,  and  Kislev  full.  Our  second  example  is  :inn 
n  shows  that  new  year's  day  is  on  Monday  ;  n,  that  the  year  is 
Imperfiict,  and  3  that  Rosh  Hodesh  Nissan  falls  on  Tuesday.  Our 
third  example  is  n3:,  2  to  show  that  new  year's  day  is  on  Tuesday, 
D  to  show  that  the  year  is  Ordinary,  and  n  to  show  that  Rosh  Ha- 
desli  Nissan  falls  on  Thursday.  This  explained,  we  detail  the 
Simanim  as  follows : —

These  changes  in  the  appointment  of  the  festivals  are  fully  treated 
of  by  writers  on  the  Jewish  Calendar  under  the  head  nTmi  mj;"'2p 
i.e.,  fixing  and  removing  of  days.  They  are  of  two  kinds:  the 
first  we  may  style  Planetary ,  and  the  second,  Exigent.  Planetary 
Removal  we  have  already  explained  in  our  remarks  upon  months, 
since  the  term  merely  conveys  that  rules  were  laid  down  to  defer 
the  consecration  of  the  new  moon  until  after  the  completion  of  its 
conjunction,  which  is  styled  1h^^o.  It  may  be  added  here,  however, 
that  if  this  took  place  before  noon,  that  is,  during  any  of  the  >[ 
eighteen  hours  contained  between  this  time  and  the  preceding  even- 
ing at  six  o'clock,  v/hich  commenced  the  day,  then  the  new  moon  is 
celebrated  on  this  day  ; — As  Abudaram  writes,  "were  the  Moled  oi 
Tishree  even  but  one  helek  or  scruple  before  noon,  it  is  to  be  conse- 
crated and  called-nnaiVioJuniorMoled,"  but  not  till  the  following  day 


24 

]f  the  conjunction  was  after  12  o'clock.when  it  is  called  ypv  nbn?3  Senile 
Moled.  This  removal  is  expressed  by  the  term  n"  (eighteen)  refer- 
ring to  the  18  hours  which  affect  it,  and  is  remembered  by  the  further 
» phrase  or  Siman,  nivn  inx^  nu'm  b^^DV  r\rir\  ^^K  "nr^  nivn  anp  ibi: 
Exigent  Removal  has  been  instituted  to  avoid  the  inconvenience 
and  impropriety  of  two  festivals  being  celebrated,  the  one  immedi- 
ately after  the  other.  And  yet  this  is  not  always  avoidable.  Thus, 
if  Passover  fall  on  Sunday,  it  immediately  follows  on  the  weekly 
Sabbath  ;  and  if  it  fall  on  Saturday,  then  Pentecost  will  fall  on  Sun- 
day and  immediately  succeed  the  weekly  Sabbath.  Occasionally, 
there  obtains  a  removal  produced  by  a  combination  of  the  above 
two,  wliich  we  may  call  Combined  Removal,  and  further  distin- 
guished as  first  single  and  second  doicble.  Single  Combined  Removal 
means  that  the  festival  is  deferred  one  day  only,  whereas  Double 
Combined  Removal  means  that  the  festival  has  been  removed  for  a 
longer  period.  Abudaram  in  his  lucid  treatise  gives  examples^ 
which  illustrate  the  above  distinctions.  For  the  first  kind,  let  us 
suppose  the  Moled  of  Tishree  had  not  taken  place  before  Sunday 
noon ;  then,  while  Planetary  Removal  would  require  Rosh  Hash- 
anali  to  be  deferred,  because  it  was  after  n'  or  eighteen  hours,  Exi- 
gent Removal  would  also  require  that  it  should  be  deferred  a  day, 
since  it  cannot  be  celebrated  on  a  Sunday,n'n  -nn  Nb,as  it  would  imme- 
diately succeed  the  weekly  Sabbath.  Thus,  the  Slman  toDpn  lun  con- 
veys that  in  the  year  following  a  Bissextile,  if  the  conjunction  had  not 
been  concluded  on  the  second  n  day  of  the  week  before  the  15th 
ID  hour  and  589th  "ciDpn  helek,  the  feast  is  deferred  till  the  following 
day,  Tuesday.  Double  Combined  Removal  is  thus  exemplified.  If, 
the  conjunction  should  not  have  taken  place  until  Saturday  after- 
noon, then  Planetery  Removal  defers  the  celebration  of  Rosh 
Hashanah  till  the  following  day,  it  having  taken  place  after  n" 
eighteen  hours.  But  as  this  day,  Sunday,  would  immediately  fol- 
low the  weekly  Sabbath,  the  festival  is  deferred  one  day  longer, — 
thus  the  Siman  T-ii3.T.  This  denotes,  that  if  in  a  common  year,  the 
Moled  be  on  the  third  day  or  Tuesday  n,  not  before  the  9th  hour 
10,  and  204  Ti  helakim,  the  celebration  is  deferred  till  Thursday  the 
5  th  day — This,  however,  is  not  of  frequent  occurrence.  We  now 
proceed  to  add  some  rules  more  or  less  dependent  upon  the 
above,  which  it  is  useful  to  know,  and  are,  as  usual,  conveyed  by 
Simanim. 

U^  Xn  di  uj  ^i  li« 

This  remarkably  ingenious  Siman  (see  Shulchan  Aruch,  ch. 
428,  93)  is  merely  a  combination  of  the  first  and  last  six  letters 
of  the  Hebrew  Alphabet,  the  first,  k,  being  joined  with  the  last,n; 
the  second,a,with  the  last  but  one  r,  <fcc.  As  the  letters  are  also  nume- 
rical, they  are  enabled  to  show,  in  the  present  Siman,  the  days  of 
the  week  on  which  the  festivals  of  the  year  occur,  in  connection

desh.

with  the  days  of  Passover ;  the  first  letter  of  each  syllable  denoting 
the  day  of  Passover,  while  the  inverted  letter  exhibits  the  festival, 
&c.  Thus,  on  the  same  day  of  the  week  as  is  k,  first  day  of  Pass- 
over, will  be  n,  i.e.  nxn  nyu'n,  or  -mn  the  fast  of  Ab  or  Tamooz. 
Same  day  as  a,  second  day,  will  be  u^,  ^. (?.,mi;i a U', Pentecost; same  day 
as  :),  third,  will  be  i,  i.e.  r\y<VT\  ttn");  same  day  as  i,  fourth,  will  be  p,  i.e 
rmnn  nx-ip,  Simchat  Torah,  on  which  the  reading  of  the  law  is 
recommenced  ;  same  day  as  n,  fifth,  will  be  y,  i.e.  "nsD  mv,  Kipoor 
same  day  as  ^,  sixth,  will  be  %  i.e.  the  past  oma,  Purim. 

The  first  letter  of  these  words  (which  may  be  rendered  "  Peleg 
lives  for  ever,")  is  the  initial  of  D""!!!),  Purim ;  the  next  two,  :ib  (33) 
stand  for  the  33rd  day  of  Homer,  which  is  always  on  "Tt  (18)  the 
eighteenth  day  of  lyar,  The  Siman  conveys  that  on  the  same  day 
as  is  Purim,  will  be  abiyb,  always  the  3 3rd  of  Homer,  or  1 8th  of  lyar. 
Shul.  Aruch.  ch  428,  S.  1. 

Here  3  is  the  initial  of  n-nDD  Ordinary  (years)  and  n  of  n"!Dn  Im- 
perfect (years),  3  of  f:  the  Lamp  (of  Hanukah)  y  of  niy  eve,  m  of 
r]':]i'rf  i^Nn  New  Year,  m;  of  no-bu'  Perfect  (years), »  of  ar,  day  m  of 
njuTi  u^H'^,  new  year.  The  Siman  may  be  translated  "  The  power  of 
the  maid  is  song,"  and  denotes  that  in  Ordinary  and  Imperfect  years 
n'3,  tlie  first  day  of  Hanukah  3,  occurs  on  the  same  week-day  as  the 
preceding  Rosh  Hashanah  Eve  nh'y,  and  in  Perfect  years,  u>,  the 
first  day  of  Hanukah  falls  on  the  same  day  "  as  the  first  day  of  the 
preceding  Rosh  Hashanah  n'n. 

Denotes  that  when  a  Monday  and  2  Tuesday  are  "jbr^n  "the  king" — 
a  term  applied  to  Rosh  Hashanah ;  God  on  that  day  being  specially 
regarded  as  iDDii'nn  ibon  the  King  of  Judgment, — and  there  being,  in 
consequence,  two  Sabbaths  between  Rosh  Hashanah  and  Succot,  then 
is  riD  severed  or  separated  (fromP.Nitsabim)  the  portion  ']b^^  (P.51.) 
which  is  read  between  R.  H.  and  Kipoor.  ro  has  here  the  sense  of 
breaking  ov parting  as  in  Lev.  ii.  6. 

Having  now  at  some  length  described  the  kinds  and  changes  of 
the  Jewish  years,  it  remains  for  us  to  add  a  few  words  as  to  the 
Jewish  computation  from  eras.  These  were  various.  Thus  we  find 
that  one  era  or  epoch  used  was  from  the  lives  of  the  Patriarchs, 
Gen.  vii.  11,  viii.  13  ;  next,  they  reckoned  frem  the  Exodus  and  insti- 
tution of  the  national  polity  (Ex.  xix.l,  xl.l7  ;  Numb,  i.l,  ix.  1 ;  1st. 
Kings  vi.  1);  again,  from  the  building  of  the  Temple;  1st.  Kings, 
ix.  10;  2nd.  Chron.  viii.  1) ;  again,  from  the  reigns  of  the  kings; 
next,  from  the  Babylonian  Captivity,  Ezek.  i.  \,&c.  They  also 
computed  from  the  Seleucidcean  era,  called  the  era  of  the  Greeks,  in 
the  books  of  Maccabees.  It  commenced  with  the  accession  of 
Seleucus  Nicanor  to  power,  about  312  years  before  the  Christian  era. 
About  this  time  it  is  supposed  the  Hebrews  first  commenced  to 


♦  26 

compute  from  ihe  Creation.  (Abendana  makes  it  only  100  years 
before  bis  time,  i.e.  850  years  ago.)  Tbe  precise  duration  of  tbis 
era  is  not  more  obscure  tbau  tbe  precise  number  of  years  elapsed 
since  creation,  wbicb,  altbougb  not  a  question  of  tbe  bigbest  impor- 
tance, bas  yet  been  mucb  discussed  by  Rabbinical  writers.  But 
obscurity  must,  necessarily,  obtain  in  tbis  inquiry,  from  tbe  circum- 
stance tbat  tbe  period  wben  tbe  400  years  servitude  in  Egypt 
commenced,  is  very  debatable.  We  can  bere  only  refer  tbe  reader, 
wbo  would  know  more  of  tbis  discussion,  rife  among  the  Talmud- 
ists  themselves,  to  the  Commentators,  especially  Don  Isaac  Abar- 
banel,  on  Gen.  xv.,to  nmm?2U>  on  Exodus  xviii.,  nm  Nnb-DQ  on  Ex. 
xiii.,  noiriDn  on  Ex.xiv.,  and  to  tbe  Targum  of  Jonathan  on  Ex.xii.  The 
present  computation  bas  been  most  generally  adopted.  According 
to  it,  the  present  year  is  AnnoMundi,  5614,  which,  as  the  custom  is, 
we  have  designated  on  our  title  page  by  means  of  a  scriptural 
quotation.  The  one  we  have  selected,  as  most  appropriate,  is  from 
Psalm  xc.  12,  and  means  "  Teach  us  so  to  number  our  days."  Tbis  is 

**** 
called  a  \did  or  motto.  Another  might  be  nnbn  by  rrnn.  On 
adding  together  the  numbers  represented  by  tbe  letters  with  aste- 
risks, we  shall  find  they  amount  to  614;  and  hence  p'ob  the  initials  of 
the  words  ]  'jp  D"iDb,  i.e.,  "according  to  the  lesser  reckoning,"  are  added 
to  denote  that  the  thousands  are  omitted. 

The  limits  which  we  have  laid  down  for  ourselves,  preclude  a 
farther  discussion  of  tbe  subjects  of  which  we  have  now  briefly 
treated.  But  if  our  readers  have  been  enabled  from  what  bas  been 
advanced  to  possess  themselves  of  the  general  features  of  the 
Jewish  Calendar  system,  and  the  Jewish  method  of  computing 
time,  we  shall  have  performed  all  that  we  proposed  to  ourselves, 
and  all,  perhaps,  that  they  expected  or  desired  here,  from  us.  Those 
who  seek  a  more  complete  exposition,  we  refer  to  the  Hebrew 
Commentators,  particularly  to  Rashi  and  Aben  Ezra,  (tbe  latter  on 
the  Section  xn,)  and  to  Abarbanel  on  tbe  Pentateuch ;  to  Maimoni- 
des  in  his  U'-nnn  imp  ;  to  Abudaram  in  bis  treatise  on  the  Calendar, 
which  bas  been  translated  into  English  by  Abraham  de  Sola ;  the 
mD-iny  idd  ;  the  ntybx  ,-i  "p-iD  ;  to  the  Tn  nj/o  -)DD  of  R.  David 
Repbael  Meldola;  aud  to  the  learned  and  interesting  correspondence 
of  Isaac  Samuel  Reggio,  and  Hayim  Selig  Slominski  in  the 
Hebrew  Magazine  T?2n  cn3  for  5601,  1841.  Among  Christian 
writers  there  will  be  found  much  illustrative  matter  and 
detailed  calculations  in  tbe  following: — Spencer  De  Legibus 
Hebroeorum,  Wahner's  Antiquitates  Heb.,  Lamy's  Apparatus

land's  Autiq.Heb.,  Jabn's  Archoeologia  Biblia,  Godwin's  Antiquities, 
Carpenter's  Calendarium  Palestinae,  and  Theodor  Fricdleben's 
Lehrbuch  der  Chronologie.  There  are  some  elaborate  tables  at  the 
end  of  Dr.  Adam  Clarke's  Commentary  ;  and  Allan,  also,  has  com- 
piled some  lesser  tables  in  his  "Modern  Judaism";  but  this  work,  as 
well  as  some  other  modern  productions,  must  be  read  with  extreme 


27 

caution,  as  they  contain  many  errors  and  misrepresentations.  We 
conclude  by  appending  a  list  of  the  Jewish  Festivals,  &,c.,  accom- 
panied with  references  and  remarks  deemed  useful  and    necessary :

1st  Day. — Eosh  Hashanah,  New  Tear,  called  also  Yom  HaziTc- 
karon.  Day  of  Memorial,  and  Feast  of  Trumpets;  as  some  say 
Zecher  ailo  shel  YitschaJc,  in  memory  of  the  ram,  entangled  by  its 
horns,  offered  instead  of  Isaac.  It  is  the  beginning  of  the  civil  year, 
and  traditionally  accounted  as  the  anniversary  of  Creation.  It  is  a

3.  Tsoni  Gedaliah,  Fast  of  Gedaliah,  observed  to  commemorate 
the  treacherous  murder  of  Gedaliah  beu  Ahikam,  Governor  of  Ju- 
dea,  (2  Kings  xxv.  25,)  called  by  Zechariah  (viii.l9,)  the  Fast  of  the 
Seventh  Month,  If  it  fall  on  Sabbath,  it  is  kept  on  the  morrow, 
Sunday.  Aben  Ezra,  in  his  comment  on  Zecli.  viii.  19,  says  the 
'■'  four  fasts"  were  not  institued  by  a  prophet,  but  voluntarily  adopted 
by  the  people. 

5.  Fast  for  the  death  of  R.  Akiba  ben  Yoseph,  &c. — Discontinued. 

T.  Fast  for  the  apostacy  of  the  Golden  Calf.     D.

as  a  day  of  expiation  and  fasting ;  Ex.  xxx.  10.  Its  appropriate 
ceremonies  and  observances  are  detailed  in  the  Portion  of  the  Day 
and  in  the  additional  service.  Excision  is  denounced  against  those 
who  profane  it ;  Lev.  xxiii.  26.  Its  special  offerings  ;  Num.  sxix. 
1.  The  Year  of  Jubilee  was  proclaimed  in  the  Temple  on  this 
day  with  the  sound  of  trumpets.  "  All  the  feasts  will  be  abrogated 
except  the  Day  of  Atonement  and  Purim." —  Vayikrah  Rabhah. 

15.  Succot,  Feast  of  Tabernacles,  called  also  Hag  Haasiph,  Har- 
vest Feast,  commemorates  the  Israelites  dwelling  in  Succot,  or 
booths,  on  their  departure  from  Egypt ;  also,  the  houseing  of  the 
harvest.  Ex.  xxiii.  16  ;  Lev.  xxiii.  33.  Num.  xxix.  12  ;  Deut.  xvi. 
13  ;  2  Chron.  vii.  8  ;  Neh.  viii.  14.  It  lasts  seven  days,  exclusive 
of  the  Feast  Eighth  of  Assembly.  It  is  now  solemnised  by  "dwelling 
in  the  Tabernacle,"  taking  the  Palm-branch,  Citron,  Willov.^  and 
Myrtle ;  besides  the  special  services  of  the  Synagogue.  On  this, 
as  on  the  Passover  and  Pentecost  festivals,  all  the  males  were 
obliged  to  go  up  to  Jerusalem.  The  intermediate  days  are  called 
Hoi  Hammoed,  or  lighter  festival. 

21.  Hoshanganah  Rahhah,  the  seventh  and  last  of  the  festival, 
so  called,  because  (seven)  additional  circuits  were  made  in  the  Tem- 
ple, and  additional  Hosanahs  are  addressed  to  the  Throne  of  Grace 
on  this  day.  It  is  observed  with  heart-stirring  and  special  solemnity 
by  the  Portuguese  Jews. 

22.  Shemiui  Atseret,  Feast  of  the  Eighth  Day,  (Lev.  xxiii.  36,) 
whereon  the  peple  prepared  to  take  leave  of  one  another,  and  the 
Biccurhn,  or  ripe  fruits,  were  offered  with  great  rejoicing.  Prayer 
for  rain  to  nourish  the  world  is  offered  on  this  day. 

23.  Sinihat  Torah,  Festival  of  rejoicing  for  the  Law.  On  this 
day  the  reading  of  the  law  is  finished,  but  immediately  recom- 
menced, that  there  may  be  no  intermission  therein,  in  accordance 
with  the  scriptural  ordinance.  Two  persons  are  appointed  fur  this 
honorable  duty ;  first  is  Hatan  Torah,  Bridegroom  of  the  Law, 
who  finishes  the  reading ;  and,  second,  Hatan  Beresheet,  Bridegroom 
of  the  Beginning,  who  recommences  it.  The  Sabbath  following 
this  festival,  when  the  whole  of  the  first  section  of  the  Law  (Bere- 
sheet) is  read,  is  called  Shabbat  Beresheet.  Dedication  of  Solomon's 
Temple  finished.

portions  of  the  Prophets  which  best  correspond  in  subject  matter  to  the 
Boctions  of  the  Law,  in  the  days  of  Autiochus  Epiphanes,  who,  after  the  mas- 
sacre of  manv  Israelites,  plundering  and  polluting  their  Temple,  prohibited 
the  reading  of  the  Law. 

2.  To  find  if  the  year  is  Common  or  Bissextile ;  divide  the  given  year 
by  19.  If  the  remainder  be  0,  3,  6,  8,  11,  14  or  17,  the  year  is  Bissextile, 
otherwise,  it  is  Common.  The  quotient  will  show  the  number  of  the  com- 
pleted cycle,  and  the  remainder  will  be  the  year  of  the  cycle,

EXPLANATION 

OF  THE  FOLLOWING  CALENDAR. 

TWO  TABLES  ARE  DEVOTED  TO  EACH  YEAR  : 

Table  1st.— Containing  all  the  New  Moons,  Festivals  and  Fast?, 

with  their  corresponding  dates  in  the  Solar  3'ear,  is 

divided  into  three  columns.     The  first  exhibits  the 

dates  of  the  Solar  months  on  which  these  New  Moons, 

Festivals  or  Fasts  occur.     The  second  contains  their 

names ;  and  the  third  shows  the  days  of  the  week 

upon  which  they  are  celebrated. 

Table  2nd.— Showing  the  order  of  reading  theParashiot  (Portions  of 

the  Law)  on  every  Sabbath  during  the  year,  with 

the   corresponding  dates    in   the   Solar    moiiths,    is 

divided  into  two  sections  of  three  columns  each.     In 

the  1st  column,  the  dates  of  the  Solar  months  aro 

given  for  every  Sabbath  in  the  year ;  In  the  2nd., 

are  contained  the  names  of  the  Parashiot,  read  on 

these  Sabbaths;  And  in  the  Srd.,  are  noted  certain 

days,  distinguished  in  the  Ritual,  occurring  generally 

on    Sabbaths;    also    the   Sabbaths  when    the   four 

Parashiot   Shekalim,   Zachor,   Parah   and  Hahodesh 

are  read.     The  second  three  columns  of  this  Table, 

divided  by  double  lines,  are  merely  in  continuation 

of  the  first. 

Note. — -Sunday  :^  indicates  that  the  observance  of  the  Fast,  which 

happened  on  the  preceeding  Sabbath,  is  deferred  until  the  Sunday 

following ; — it  not  being  lawful  to  fast  on  a  Sabbath,  except  it  be 

the  day  of  Atonement. 

Thursday  Q  denotes  that  the  Fast,  which  would  happen  on  the 
succeeding  Sabbath,  is,  for  the  same  reason,  to  be  anticipated  on  the 
Thursday  preceeding. 

When  two  Parashiot  are  included  in  brackets,  opposite  one  date, 
tbey  are  to  be  read  together  on  the  same  day. 

The  insertion  of  the  words  "  Barech  Alenu,"  generally  on  the  4th 
of  December,  is  to  denote  the  date  upon  which  the  prayer  com- 
mencing with  these  words  in  the  Amidah  or  Shemoneh  Esreh  Bera- 
chot,  is  to  be  read.

TABLES 

FOB,  THE 

CONTINUATION  OF  THE  JEWISH  CALENDAR 

TO 

THE   YEAR   5776. 

BEING    A    PERIOD    OF    BIX    LUNAR      CYCLES,     CONTAINING    ONE    HUNDRED 
AND    FOURTEEN    TEARS. 


EXPLANATION. 

The  Index  Table  contains  six  columns.  The  1  st  Column  shows  the  number 
of  the  year  in  the  Lunar  Cycle;  the  2nd,  the  number  of  years  since  the 
Creation  of  the  World;  the  3rd,  the  nature  of  the  year,  Mhether  Common, 
Bissextile,  Perfect,  Imperfect  or  Ordinary  ;  the  4th,  shows  the  Table  of  the 
New  Moons,  Festivals  and  Fasts  to  be  consulted;  the  5th,  points  to  the  par- 
ticular column  in  the  Table  thus  indicated,  to  find  the  days  of  the  New 
Moons,  Festivals  and  Fasts  for  any  given  year  :'(At  the  foot  of  this  column 
will  be  found  directions  for  reading  certain  Parashiot  for  that  year) ;  the 
6th,  exhibits  the  particular  column  in  the  2nd  Section,  whereby  the  English 
dates  of  the  New  Moons,  Festivals  and  Fasts  for  any  given  year,  may  be 
ascertained,  as  also  the  number  to  be  added  to  the  dates  therein  indicated. 

Table  1st,  for  Common  Years,  is  divided  into  Two  Sections. 

Section  1st,  shows  the  order  of  the  New  Moons,  Festivals  and  Fasts,  with 
the  days  on  which  they  happen,  arranged  in  seven  columns  ior  the  seven  dif- 
ferent kinds  of  Common  Years  of  12  months.  At  the  foot  of  these  columns 
will  be  found  the  directions  for  reading  certain  Parashiot  separately ;  also  the 
proper  Sabbaths  for  reading  the  Parashiot  of  Shekalim,  Zachor,  Parah  and 
Hahodesh.  Section  2nd,  contains  a  series  of  English  dates  (of  the  Solar 
Months)  arranged  in  six  columns,  to  which  must  be  added  the  number  shown 
in  the  6th  column  of  the  Index. 

Table  2nd,  for  Bissextile  Years  is  divided  into  Two  Sections. 

Section  1st,  shows  the  order  of  the  New  Moons,  Festivals  and  Fasts,  with 
the  days  on  wnich  they  happen,  arranged  in  seven  columns  for  the  seven  differ- 
ent kinds  of  Bissextile  Years  of  13  months.  At  the  foot  of  these  columns  will 
be  found  the  directions  for  reading  certain  Parashiot  jointly ;  also  the  proper 
Sabbaths  for  reading  the  Parashiot  of  Shekalim,  Zachor,  Parah  and  Hahodesh. 
Section  2nd,  contains  a  series  of  English  dates  (of  the  Solar  Months)  arranged 
in  six  columns,  to  which  must  be  added,  the  number  shown  in  the  6th  column 
of  the  Index. 

EXAMPLE. 

If  it  be  desired  to  know  the  days  of  the  week  and  the  English  dates  for  the 
two  first  days  of  Pesach  in  5663,  turn  to  the  Index  Table,  where  5663  is 
shown  to  be  a  Perfect  Common  Year  (of  355  days,)  on  a  line  with  which  will  be 
found,  Table  I.  V.  A.  add  21.  Table  1  refers  to  the  Table  for  Common  Years 
of  12  months,  5663  being  a  Common  Year.  V  indicates  the  particular  column, 
in  that  Table,  to  be  sought,  in  which,  on  a  line  with  Pesach,  will  be  found  Sun- 
day and  Monday.  Pesach  therefore  in  5663  will  be  on  Sunday  and  Monday. 
A  refers  to  the'Column  thus  marked  in  Section  2nd,  of  the  same  Table,  con- 
taining a  series  of  English  dates,  where,  to-  those  dates  on  a  line  with  Pesach 
must  be  added  21,  as  directed  in  the  Index.  Thus,  the  dates  found  on  a  line 
with  Pesach  in  the  column  marked  A,  are  March  22  and  23.  By  adding  21  they 
would  be  March  43  and  44.  March  having  only  31  days  the  remainder  shows 
them  to  be  April  12  and  13. 

In  the  same  manner  the  date  of  any  other  Festival,  &c.,  may  be  ascertained; 
always  remembering  to  add  the  number  in  the  Index  to  that  stated  in  the 
Table.  When  the  number  thus  added  exceeds  the  number  of  days  in  any  given 
month,  the  excess  is  to  be  taken  for  the  date  in  the  following  month. 

Note.— This  mark  Sun*  shows  the  Fast  to  have  happened  on  the  preceeding  Sabbath  and  its  observance  is  deferr- 
«d   to  tlie  Sunday  folIo\viiig,  in  wliich  case  one  day  is  to  be  added  to  the  English  date,  indicated  in  the  Table. 

This  mark  Thut  0,  show.'i  that  the  Fast  of  Esther  would  happen  on  the  ensuing  Sabbath,  but  it  is  to  be  anticipated 
uR  the  Thnrsday  preceeding.     Two  days  must  therefor*  be  deducted  from  the  English  dates  indicated  in  the  Table.

[There  are  no  attainable  records  of  the  early  settlement  of  Jews 
in  Canada,  prior  to  the  conquest  of  the  Proviuce  by  England. 
Samuel  Jacobs,  Simon  Levy  and  Aaron  Hart  arrived  in  Canada  in 
1760.  They  accompaniecl  det:ichments  of  infantry  under  the 
command  of  General  Haldimand,  immediately  after  the  conquest. 
Aaron  Hart  remained  in  Thi^ee  Rivers,  and  was  employed  as  a 
Commissary  to   supply  tJie  troops  with  forage,  provisions,  <fee. 


151 

J'rom  this  period  to  the  year  1'7'74,  there  came  to  reside  in  Canada 
David  Salesby  Franks,  Ezekiel  Solomons,  Andrew  Hayes,  Jacob 
Mam'is,  Isaac  Judah,  Lazarus  David  and  Levy  Solomons.  In  1775, 
was  purchased  a  piece  of  ground  in  the  St.  Antoine  Suburbs,  Mon- 
treal, for  a  Beth  Haini,  to  which  an  additional  piece  of  land  was 
added  in  1809,  the  gift  of  David  David,  upon  whose  property  was 
erected  in  K"otre  Dame  Street,  adjoining  the  present  Court  House, 
the  first  Synagogue  building  possessed  by  the  Jews  in  Canada. 
The  earhest  record  of  interment  in  the  Beth  Haim  of  Montreal, 
is  that  of  Lazarus  David,  22nd  October,  1776  ;  while  the  oldest 
standing  grave  stone  is  that  of  Moses  Nathan,  7th  March,  1804, 
the  first  mentioned  tomb-stone  having  been  replaced  in  1824  by 
another  under  which  it  was  placed.  In  the  town  of  Three 
Rivers,  a  piece  of  land  was  appropriated  by  the  Hart  family 
for  a  Beth  Haim,  one  half  retained  by  the  family,  the  other  for 
the  use  of  all  Israelites,  The  ground  which  is  in  Alexander, 
off  Hart,  Street,  is  still  used.  On  the  24th  July,  1826,  a  very 
earnest  and  able  appeal  for  re-organization  and  revival  was 
issued  to  the  Israelites  of  Lower  Canada,  by  Benjamin  Hart,  Esq., 
of  the  City  of  Montreal,  to  whom,  during  a  portion  of  the  period 
intervening  the  abandonment  of  the  old,  and  the  building  of  their 
present,  Synagogue,  his  co-religionists  were  indebted  for  a  temporary 
place  of  worship  in  his  own  residence,  S.  W.  corner  of  St.  Helen  and 
ReeoUet  Streets.  On  15th  Oct.,  1832,  a  meeting  of  the  "  registered 
members  of  the  Jewish  Persuasion,"  in  Montreal,  was  held  agreeably 
to  an  Act  passed  with  the  Royal  Assent,  1 8th  January,  1 83 1 ,"  for  the 
purpose  of  forming  the  present  members  into  a  Congregation,  (fee." 
On  30th  June,  1835,  was  passed  "  a  deed  of  sale  from  the  repre- 
sentatives of  the  late  Gabriel  Cotte  to  the  Trustees,  <fec."  of  the 
present  Synagogue  lots  on  Chenneville  and  Lagaucheti^re  Streets ; 
and  in  1846,  the  Legislature  passed  an  Act  incorporating  them  as 
the  "  Congregation  of  Portuguese  Jews  of  the  City  of  :  Mon- 
treal." In  Berthier,  a  piece  of  ground  off  the  property  of  the 
late  Henry  Joseph,  was  devoted  for  the  purpose  of  bmial,  when 
he,  a  respected  merchant  of  Montreal,  and  for  many  years  a  much 
esteemed  resident  of  Berthier,  "  fell  a  victim  to  the  pestilence 
■which  devastated  this  Province"  as  is  declared  on  his  tomb,  the 
Hebrew  inscription  of  which  bears  date  23rd  Sivan,  5592,  21st 
Jime,  1832 — near  his  grave  some  other  (family)  interments  have 
been  made.  In  the  City  of  Toronto,  the  Israelites  purchased  a 
piece  of  ground  for  a  Beth  Haim  in  5612 — 1852,  and  the  Israelites 
of  Quebec  did  the  same  in  5613.]

Portuguese  Minhag.  The  first  settlement  of  Jews  in  the  City  of  New 
York,  is  supposed  to  have  been  about  the  year  5410 — 1650.  The  earliest 
known  records  are  copies  of  a  petition  of  Salvador  d'Andrade,  dated  Decem- 
ber 17,  1655,  to  the  Directors  General  and  Council  of  the  New  Nether- 
lands, and  of  a  remonstrance  signed  by  Abraham  de  Lucena  and  others, 
dated,  March  10th,  1656.  In  the  Documentary  History  of  the  State  of  New 
York,  Vol.  1 .,  Governor  Andros,  in  his  answers  to  certain  inquiries  about  New 
York,  in  1678,  included  Jews  amongst  the  inhabitants,  and  in  Vol.  3,  mention 
is  made  of  the  Rev.  Abraham  de  Lucena,  applying  as  a  Jewish  Minister,  to  His 
Excellency  Governor  Hunter,  in  1710,  to  be  exempted  from  Militia  and  civil 
city  duties,  stating  that  these  privileges  had  been  allowed  to  his  predecesors. 
The  first  minutes  of  congregational  affairs  at  present  in  possession  of  the 
Congregation  "  Shearith  Israel,"  written  in  Spanish  and  English,  are  dated 
Tishree  20th,  5489 — 1728,  and  have  reference  to  certain  wholesome  rules  and 
regulations,  adopted,  5466—1706,  twenty-three  years  previous.    Before  the 


161 


erection  of  a  regular  Synagogue,  prayers  were  read  in  a  frame  building 
in  Mill  Street,  in  the  first  Ward,  about  100  feet  east  of  the  lot  on  which 
the  first  Synagogue  was  built  in  54S9 — 1729,  and  consecrated  on  the  eve 
of  the  7th  day  of  Pesach,  5490 — 1730.  This  place  of  worship  was  taken 
down,  re-built  on  the  same  site  in  5377 — 1817,  and  consecrated  on  the  eve  of 
Shabat  Hagadole,  5578 — 1818,  the  Congregation,  in  the  interim,  worshipping 
in  a  large  room  in  an  engine  house  in  Beaver  Street,  a  few  doors  west  of 
Broad  Street.  During  the  prevalence  of  the  yellow  fever,  in  1 822,  service 
■was  performed  in  a  school-house,  corner  of  Henry  and  Oliver  Streets.  In 
the  spring  of  5593 — 1833,  the  property  in  Mill  and  Beaver  Streets  was  sold, 
but  the  materials  of  the  old  Synagogue  having  been  reserved  by  the  Trustees, 
were,  as  far  as  possible,  used  in  the  erection  of  the  present  place  of  worship 
in  Crosby  Street,  which  was  consecrated  on  the  eve  of  the  first  day  of  She- 
buot,  5594 — 1834.  The  Congregation  worshipped  in  the  meanwhile  in  a  large 
room  flfted  up  for  that  purpose,  over  the  New  York  Dispensary,  corner  of 
"White  and  Centre  Streets,  which,  without  interruption,  has  ever  since  been 
used  by  various  congregations  as  a  temporary  Synagogue.  The  first 
Beth  Haim,  as  far  as  is  known,  was  on  the  corner  of  Madison  and  Oliver 
Streets  purchased  in  5441 — 1681,  and  stood  on  a  high  hill  adjoining  the 
ground  purchased  in  1729 — 5483,  extending  to  Chatham  Street,  then  called 
the  Kings  High  Way.  Interment  having  been  prohibited  by  the  Common.
