The fiscal year in the Beit Hamikdash starts on Rosh Chodesh Nissan.
Q & A: The Arba Parshiyot (Conclusion)
Question: Why do we read four special Torah sections between Purim and Pesach. Also, why do we call each of the four Shabbatot on which we read these sections by a special name – such as Shabbat Shekalim, Shabbat Zachor etc.?
