About the Hebrew Calendar

The Hebrew Calendar is a lunisolar calendar used today predominantly for Jewish religious observances. It determines the dates for holidays like Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Passover. This interactive tool provides an easy way to explore the Hebrew months and see their corresponding dates in the Gregorian calendar.

Understanding the Calendar

Unlike the purely solar Gregorian calendar, the Hebrew calendar's months follow the moon's cycle. To ensure that it stays aligned with the seasons of the solar year, an extra month (Adar I) is added every 2-3 years. This is why the dates of Jewish holidays vary from year to year in the Gregorian calendar.
