Adar

The twelfth month of the ecclesiastical, and the sixth of the civil, year among the Hebrews. It contains but twenty-nine days, and answers to our February, and sometimes enters into March, according to the course of the moon, by which they regulated their seasons. Adar is rendered in the installed Bible Names resource as “high; eminent.” This unified study connects 8 installed resource categories without replacing their source records.
