What Is JewishHebrewCalendar.com?
JewishHebrewCalendar.com is a free, independent resource dedicated to making the Hebrew calendar accessible to everyone — Jewish communities around the world, students of Judaism, and anyone curious about Jewish time, tradition, and holidays.
We believe that the Hebrew calendar is one of humanity's great cultural and spiritual treasures. Its system of months, leap years, and holy days has shaped Jewish life for thousands of years — connecting Jews across continents, generations, and denominations through a shared rhythm of time.

Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to help Jewish people stay connected to the rhythm of Jewish time, and to help everyone else understand and appreciate one of the world's oldest and most sophisticated calendar systems. We present Jewish tradition with accuracy, warmth, and accessibility — without advocating for any particular denomination or movement within Judaism.
A Note on Accuracy
Hebrew date calculations follow the traditional Jewish calendar as codified by Maimonides (the Rambam) in the 12th century. Holiday dates are calculated according to their Hebrew calendar positions. Zmanim are approximate values based on Jerusalem — always verify precise times with a local rabbi or dedicated Zmanim application before observing time-sensitive mitzvot.
