Criteria for New Moons determined from Jerusalem
• If the conjunction of the sun and moon occurs between sunset and sunrise, the nighttime portion of the 24-hour day, this would initially indicate that the conjunction occurred within the last day of the month. Consequently, if the next sunset occurs before moonset, that sunset would mark the beginning of a new month (moon).
• If the conjunction of the sun and moon occurs between sunrise and sunset, the daylight portion of the 24-hour day, the next sunset would mark the beginning of the last day of the month. Therefore the beginning of the new month (moon) would occur at the second sunset after the conjunction.
