∙ 2012-10-15 03:49:13If you're talking about translations of the word History:Modern Hebrew = הִיסטוֹרִיָה (historiya).Biblical Hebrew = תוֹלְדוֹת (toldot)Greek = ιστορία (istoría)
It depends on what you consider "the main alphabet" to be. If you mean the main alphabet of the Bible, that is the Hebrew alphabet. the main difference between the Hebrew alphabet and the Greek alphabet is that the Greek alphabet includes letters for Vowels.
There isn't a Greek version of the Book of Esther (however there are many Greek translations of the Book of Esther.)
Immanuel is derived from the Hebrew word "Immanuel" (Isaiah 7:14). "Emmanuel" is derived from the Greek word in the New Testament (Matthew 1:23). Both spellings mean "God with us". Both spellings are correct. Remember that the Old Testament was written in Hebrew, a language that did not have vowels (e.g. 'e' or 'i'). So when the Hebrew was translated into Greek (i.e. the Septuagint), the translators rendered the Greek "Emmanuel" based on pronunciation not on a particular spelling. Later when the Hebrew vowel were added by Masoretic scholars, a vowel was added which modern scholars typically render as an 'i' rather than an 'e.' It is important to keep in mind that many ancient languages did not have fixed spellings, but instead spelled words based upon their sound. This was the problem that led Noah Webster to create the dictionary, to establish in America a standard spelling. http://www.myetymology.com/english/Immanuel.html

11 May, 2010, on the Gregorian calendar is 27 Iyyar 5770, on the Hebrew calendar.

Answer 1The Hebrew months have a rough correspondence to the Gregorian calendar. They line up with Gregorian months in a general way.Answer 2The Hebrew calendar is a lunisolar calendar which means that there is a general correspondence between the Hebrew months and the seasons, and there is a nearly exact correspondence between the Hebrew dates and the phases of the moon. This is as opposed to the Gregorian calender which is a solar calendar and has an almost exact correspondence between its months and the seasons (but no correspondence with the phases of the moon). As a result, while the Hebrew month of Nissan will dance around (from the Gregorian perspective) between March and April, it will never be in August or November or February. This is in contrast to the Islamic Calendar which is purely lunar and where the months dance around the solar year. For example, Ramadan is currently (in 2013) a summer month. In 2030, it will be a winter month, etc.Additionally, because of the way the Hebrew calendar accounts for its lunisolar discrepancies and the because of the way that the Gregorian Calendar accounts for its discrepancies, the Hebrew Calendar and the Gregorian Calendar date will be the same (or only one day off) for every date nineteen years apart. For example: August 25, 1994 was 18 Elul 5754 and August 25, 2013 (19 years later) will be 19 Elul 5773 (19 years later).
They both have lunar months, unlike the Gregorian calendar.The difference is that the Hebrew calendar also keeps in step with the solar seasons, while the Muslim calendar does not.See also the Related Link.About the Hebrew calendar

AD is not used in the Jewish calendar. It is only used on the Gregorian (Christian) Calendar.
The Jewish calendar is a lunar calendar, whilst the Gregorian calendar is a Solar Calendar, therefore they have different months. Often the Hebrew month of Kislev, which is the month in which Chanuka falls, will correlate to the Gregorian month of December, so it is common for Chanuka to fall in December. The way the Hebrew calendar is formed, the correlation between with the Gregorian months do not vary a great deal, as leap years occur periodically keeping the Hebrew months in the same season each year. This differes from the Islamic calendar, which is a purely lunar calendar - explaining why the month of Ramadan will occur at a different time of the Gregorian calendar every year.
The tenth month in the Hebrew calendar is called "Tamuz". It usaually falls out around July time.
The Hebrew month of "Nisan" or March/April in the Gregorian calendar.
There are two calendars, I am not sure which one you mean. The Gregorian - which has the 12 months that are used around the world and their names are the same in Hebrew The Hebrew calendar - with 12 months which all have different lengths than the Gregorian months and have different names.
No. There is the Gregorian calendar (used by Americans, Europeans, and Japanese), a Hebrew calendar, and a Muslim calendar at least. Here's a link to a Chinese calendar and an Indian calendar.
