The Hebrew Month of
נִיסָן
Month of Miracles
“This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.”
— Exodus 12:2
Nisan is the first month of the biblical year — the month God set apart when He told Moses, “This month shall be the beginning of months” (Exodus 12:2). It is the month of the Exodus, when Israel was led out of slavery in Egypt by a mighty hand. Above all else, it is the month of redemption and new beginnings.
The month of Passover and the Exodus from Egypt — a time of liberation and new beginnings.

Every one of these sacred signs is inscribed on your Biblical Birthday certificate.
Nisan holds Passover (Pesach), the Feast of Unleavened Bread, and the Feast of Firstfruits — the spring festivals that remember deliverance from Egypt. For Christians these days carry a second weight: it was at Passover that Jesus gave Himself as the Lamb, and on Firstfruits that He rose from the dead (1 Corinthians 15:20).
