Nisan
Nisan is the 7th month of an ordinary year (not to be confused with a regular year) of the common Jewish calendar, the 8th month of a leap year of that calendar, and the 1st month of the Jewish religious calendar. The Bible identifies it as the 1st month of the year. The daytime of the 1st day of the month coincides with Gregorian dates from as early as the 12th of March to as late as the 11th of April during the Gregorian century of 2015 to 2114, and the month is 30 days long.
Av is the 5th Month of the year on the Hebrew calendar. It usually occurs in June or July
Aviv is a Hebrew term. It means a stage in the growth of grain. It is also referred to as the month in the Hebrew calendar when the grain basically reaches maturity.
Tel Aviv offers the best of traditional Jewish cooking along with various Middle Eastern cuisines. As a modern city that is sometimes comparable to NYC. Restaurants, bars, cafés, shopping center, and other sophisticated lifestyle hubs fill the city's borders. Composed of around 50 neighborhoods, Tel Aviv is a city with a great cosmopolitan vibe.
Several major museums in Tel Aviv are: * Tel Aviv Museum of Art * Bet Hatefutsoth - Museum of the Jewish People - mostly Jewish history and culture * Eretz Israel Museum - Geography and Archeology of Israel See related links for their sites.
Aviv is also Abib, the first Jewish month in contrast to Babylon's Nisan. Every indication is that at Exodus Nisan and Abib was not the same. Nisan was in Pamenot (Julian March /Gregorian February) and Abib was the next lunar month (Julian April / Gregorian March). Many words in Hebrew are spelt both ways with a V or B like Avraham. The city of Tel Aviv is said to mean Mountain or hill of spring, though other sources say Aviv is not just spring, it is the barley ear of corn before it dries out.
The actual name of the month is 'Nisan'. Aviv is the Hebrew word for the season of Spring.
Abib or Aviv is a Hebrew month (Our April) or first month in the Hebrew Calender.It means an ear of corn and was so called because barley was "in ear" at that time of the year.See related links for more information. ================================================================================From another contributor, whose first category, and still a favorite, was 'Judaism' ...Cosmopup's original answer is fine.I would have said "Spring"; this has always been my understanding.
