question about Hebrew new year - WatchingforYeshua - 03-14-2023
Hello everyone, I hope your day has been great.
I was reading in Shemot (Exodus) about the establishment of the first of the year and Passover in the month of Nisan. I also recently read that the New Year is celebrated in the month of Tishrei? I was wondering if anyone could talk about the change? Thank you!

Good question.
The answer is as far as I know, is that there are seversl "New Year's" in the Hebrew bible, not just one.
Each is related to something different.
