Most often the month a book is published in is not given.  You then put the 
year as 2014 or 2015.

Hi Galina,

It is impossible to tell b/c the word תפילה is not a month.  It translates to 
prayer.  And since the Hebrew calendar overlaps the English calendar, without a 
month we cannot tell into which year it falls.

Dear  Colleagues,

Would you suggest how to read designation:   תפילה תשע"ה

I haven’t found any month which corresponds to this, and yes, I looked at the 
Bible Calendar.
I need to know if it clarifies a year - 2015 or 2014.

Thanks in advance!
Galina
