Iyar

Iyar (Hebrew: אִייָר or אִיָּר, Standard ʾĪyyar Tiberian ʾĪyyār; from Akkadian: 𒌗𒄞 itiayari "rosette; blossom") is the eighth month of the civil year (which starts on 1 Tishrei) and the second month of the Jewish religious year (which starts on 1 Nisan) on the Hebrew calendar. The name is Babylonian in origin. It is a month of 29 days. Iyar usually falls in April–May on the Gregorian calendar.

In the Hebrew Bible, before the Babylonian captivity, the month was called Ziv (1 Kings 6:1, 6:37). Ziv is a Hebrew word that means "light" or "glow".

Along with all other current, post-biblical Jewish month names, Iyar was adopted during the Babylonian captivity. In the Babylonian calendar its name was Araḫ Āru, which can be interpreted as "month of blossoming".

Examples of use of Iyar
1. One could even say that the diplomatic–security leadership is largely motivated by their desire to lend the country a calm facade for the 3rd of Iyar (the holiday has been moved up this year from its usual Hebrew date, the 5th of Iyar). Officially they don‘t admit it: They credit Egyptian decisions in Cairo – not the quiet understanding in the works between Israel and Hamas – with the (relative) lull on the Gaza border.
2. By Yair Sheleg Tags: Israeli Arabs, Nakba Until a few years ago, today, May 15, was known in Israel as the parallel to the 5th of Iyar, the day of the establishment of the state.
3. The signal for starting to raise our heads can be given on the coming Independence Day, on the 28th of Iyar, the 40th anniversary of the huge victory in the Six–Day War and the liberation of Jerusalem.
4. I was born on Independence Day, the 5th of the Hebrew month of Iyar, 1'48, and until I was 10 years old I was certain that the celebrations on that date, which included a parade, gun salutes and fireworks, were intended to perpetuate this happy fact.
5. Not only because of the large number of events Minister Avraham–Balila is preparing for us – the president‘s conference on the future of the Jewish people, a huge light show, a video presentation about the history of the state, a large independence party, a birthday party for those born on the 5th of Iyar 1'48, and other wonders and miracles to relieve the tension with the Palestinians – but because the past days have proven that there is someone to talk to on the Palestinian side: Hamas is demonstrating very good control over the rocket launchers from the Gaza Strip and is functioning as a leadership for all intents and purposes.
