Hi Robin, As you know, the months in the Bible usually are referred to by number…first month, second month etc., and occasionally according to the season – like the first month being called Aviv (Spring). The change in names was due, predominantly, to the Babylonian influence (not Cannanite) – after the 70 year exile.
Is there any canninite influence on the names of the months in the Jewish calendar
