The calendar of the Western world has been changed so many times it's a wonder any of us make it to work on time. The best example is that scholars place the birth of Jesus/Yeshua (from Whom we now base our understanding of chronology) at 3-4 BC or BCE. In simple terms He was born 3 or 4 years before Himself. The Jewish calendar in use today is fundamentally a product of the traumatic re-building period of the Jewish culture after the exile in Babylon.
