The first month of the secular year is the same as the seventh month of the sacred year and visa versa C. Growing Seasons 1. Israel averages from 2 to 22 inches of rain per year with more rain as you go north. From 10 to 12 inches of rain is the minimum needed to have a harvest each year. In much of the south, rain-watered crops are not possible. 2. Israel s main growing season is during the winter when most of the rain comes. The summer is so dry that very little can grow. Barley and wheat are sown at the beginning of the rainy season (Oct.-Nov.) and harvested at the end (Apr.-May). These rains are called the former and the latter rains in scripture (Deuteronomy 11:14; Job 29:23; Proverbs 16:15; Jeremiah 3:3; 5:24; Hosea 6:3; Joel 2:23; Zechariah 10:1; James 5:7) D.
