 As soon as a Jew uses the calendar God established for his benefit, and eschews the secular calendar - he casts off the yoke of the nations from his neck.  He expresses his uniqueness as a member of a Holy Nation and Kingdom of Priests.

-This is the first permanent commandment given to the Children of Israel as a nation.  They had not yet left Egypt, and God commands them to count time beginning from "this month", that is, from the month they left Egypt, in the month we call "Nissan" (the Torah only calls it "the first month").

 To what end did He command us this?  One answer is that in that in this way we could track our festivals in a manner unique to us.  This is true, and we know that almost every nation in the world has arranged a calendar unique to themselves, each one strange and different from its fellows.
