Baris 43:
At first the beginning of each Jewish month was signaled to the communities of Israel and beyond by fires lit on mountaintops, but after the [[Samaritan]]s began to light false fires, messengers were sent.<ref>M. ''Rosh Hashanah'' 2.2</ref> The inability of the messengers to reach communities outside Israel before mid-month High Holy Days ([[Succot]] and [[Passover]]) led outlying communities to celebrate scriptural festivals for two days rather than one, observing the second feast-day of the [[Jewish diaspora]] because of uncertainty of whether the previous month ended after 29 or 30 days.<ref>b. ''Betzah'' 4b</ref>
In his work ''[[Mishneh Torah]]'' (1178), Maimonides included a chapter "Sanctification of the New Moon", in which he discusses the calendrical rules and their scriptural basis. He notes, <blockquote>"By how much does the solar year exceed the lunar year? By approximately 11 days. Therefore, whenever this excess accumulates to about 30 days, or a little more or less, one month is added and the particular year is made to consist of 13 months, and this is the so-called embolismic (intercalated) year. For the year could not consist of twelve months plus so-and-so many days, since it is said: throughout the months of the year ({{bibleverse||Num|28:14|HE}}), which implies that we should count the year by months and not by days."<ref name = "tcjmwz">[http://
