As a Christian I like to know what the Bible says about science, history, morality, and other topics that when taken apart should come from our GOD inspired book The Bible. One of the topics I have been very interested in lately is the Hebrew calendar. In the beginning the Hebrew Calendar was based on spotting a new moon. The the amount of days in the month ended when the next new moon was spotted again. So some months had 29 days and other months had 30. It does not have a specific pattern but randomly according to the new moon.
When the new moon is spotted that day becomes the first day of the month. At that point the Hebrew Holidays are placed on specific number of days in the month. That would be like having Thanksgiving on the 25th day of November every year. That could make it where Thanksgiving fell on a Thursday, or a Saturday, or even a Monday.
The following is some of the information I gathered and put into chart form. I left a link to the information in Google Docs.

We got even more interested in the Hebrew Calendar Moon Cycle when we witnessed the new moon in the Roman year of January 18, 2018. Here is the link to the video on YouTube.
I’ve always been interested in the Jewish calendar. Thanks for the chart.
