Jewish Holiday Calendar.


Jewish holidays actually occur on the same day every year: the same day on the Jewish calendar! The Jewish calendar has a different number of days than the calendar we use because the Jewish calendar is tied to the moon's cycles instead of the sun's. The Jewish calendar loses about 11 days relative to the solar calendar every year, but makes up for it by adding a month every two or three years. As a result, the holidays don't always fall on the same day. See the dates for the Jewish holidays from 2011 until 2014 by clicking here

PJ Library highlighted in NY Times: Aiming to Spread Judaism One Book at a Time

Mr. Grinspoon, who has long given millions of dollars to Jewish summer camps and to schools and synagogues here in western Massachusetts, had an idea: do what Dolly does, with a Jewish twist.
