Hebrew month guides

The Hebrew months give Christians another way to notice the biblical story unfolding through the year. These guides are designed to become familiar companions: return to them as the months turn, open the Scriptures again, remember what God has done, and ask how to walk faithfully in the season in front of you.

The Hebrew year has more than one meaningful “beginning.” Exodus 12 gives Nisan first place in the numbering of months, while Jewish year numbering turns at Tishrei. Holding both together helps us read Scripture and Jewish practice with greater clarity rather than squeezing the calendar into a single modern framework.

Each month already offers rich ground for prayer and attention through Scripture, Israel’s story, the appointed times, and the ways generations have remembered them. Contemporary Christian and prophetic teaching can add a prayerful lens when it is weighed well; it does not need to carry the whole season. Our aim is to help you know the season, keep the rhythm, and pray with understanding with confidence, humility, and expectancy.

The New Testament usually names feasts rather than Hebrew month names, so the month guides become especially useful when you want to place a Gospel scene back into its calendar setting. Follow Jesus and the Biblical Feasts to move from Passover to Nisan , Sukkot to Tishrei , Hanukkah to Kislev and Tevet, and Pentecost to Sivan. The companion New Testament calendar guide gathers the wider reference map.

If you also want to hear how other Christian ministries are teaching through these months, explore our curated guide to Christian teachers on Hebrew months, biblical seasons, and prophetic discernment . Bring those voices into the conversation, then weigh what you hear alongside Scripture, prayer, and the historical context gathered here.
