The charts on the three following pages are used to illustrate the correspondence of the Hebrew months with our own. Each chart represents the ecliptic, which is the apparent path of the Sun or real path of the Earth, also the names of the months as they occur in their seasons. The figures represent the days of the month on which the new moons of the Hebrew calendar fall. These charts represent the month and the day of the month on which both the Sacred and the Civil year begins and ends for three successive years. Hence it may be seen that by intercalating a month every three years the new moons are restored, very nearly, to the place they occupied three years before.
