| | Hillel II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Hillel II, also known simply as Hillel was a Jewish communal and religious authority, circa 330 - 365 CE. | | | In an autograph letter to him, Julian assured him of his friendship and promised to ameliorate further the condition of the Jews. | | | Temporarily to relieve the foreign congregations, Huna ben Abin once advised Rava not to wait for the official intercalation: "When you are convinced that the winter quarter will extend beyond the sixteenth day of Nisan declare the year a leap-year, and do not hesitate" (R. 21a). |

| | Hillel and Shammai |
| | For example with regard to the remarriage of an aguna, whose husband is not known with certainty to be alive or dead, the view of Hillel (and most of his colleagues) was that she can remarry even on the basis of indirect evidence of the husband's death. | | | While Hillel and Shammai themselves did not differ on a great many basic issues of Jewish law, their disciples were often in conflict. | | | Sixteenth-century kabbalist Rabbi Isaac Luria (the “Ari”) said that not only are both the words of the House of Shammai and the House of Hillel enduring on the conceptual level, but each has its time and place on the pragmatic level as well. |

| | Hillel II did not institute a new method of calculating the sacred calendar, he merely published the secret method of calculations used by the Calendar Court to calculate the days on which to observe God's observances and festivals and he established a fixed sacred calendar for future generations. | | | Moreover, all biblical and secular events concerning the Jews and the early church during this period confirm the validity Hillel II's calculations and its use of the visible new crescent as the beginning of the sacred month. | | | Not only does astronomy confirm the Hillel II calendar, but Jewish history easily confirms the unbroken succession of festivals calculated by using the visible new crescent as the first day of the month all the way back to the Day of Atonement in 30 A.D.. |

| | The Hillel calendar can thus be seen for what it was and is. It was part of a sustained attack on the doctrines and religious observance of the Church and the people of God, by an apostate system. | | | Indeed such argument proves that the Hillel or modern Jewish calendar is incompatible with the word of God and the correct observance of His Sacred calendar. | | | The progression from the original pure biblical calendar to the rabbinical calendar introduced from Babylon, firstly under Rabbi Hillel II in 358 CE, was rather long winded as the traditions had to be entrenched to justify the gradual changes. |

| | That is precisely why, for the benefit of Jews scattered around the world following the destruction of the Temple in AD70, the patriarch Hillel II, in the 4th century, set out the present Jewish calendar to begin Abib as near as possible to the spring equinox. | | | In the course of time, Jewish calendar makers began to use the Metonic Cycle to regulate the sacred calendar and after a few changes the following seven years in the cycle, 3rd, 6th, 8th, 11th, 14th, 17th and 19th, were declared to be leap years with 13 months each. | | | In our answer to Question 6 you will see how Arthur Spier, a leading Jewish authority on the Hebrew Calendar, states that the spring and autumnal equinoxes in Hillel's calendar have slipped some 17 days from their true astronomical positions. |

| | Jewish Calendar - Hebrew Calendar |
| | An extra month called "Addaru II" was added in the 3rd, 6th, 8th, 11th, 14th, and 19th years of a 19-year calendrical cycle. | | | Regarding the naming of the two months of Adar, note that some Hebrew calendars may say Adar and Adar I, while others may say Adar I and Adar II, while still others may say Adar and Adar II. | | | These are all different ways of saying the same thing: that there are two months used for the month of Adar when a leap year occurs. |

| | Rosh Chodesh |
| | This calendar made it possible for Jews everywhere to observe the Festivals on the same dates. | | | During the time of the Second Temple and before the formation of the Hillel II calendar, Rosh Chodesh was determined based on the sighting of the first sliver of the New Moon each month by two witnesses. | | | As it is the goal of the Torah to demonstrate to us the righteous standard of God and show our need for a savior, the ultimate path of life is accomplished only through the atoning work of Messiah Yeshua. |
