Jewish Calendars / Holidays / Zmanim

2019-10-18

For those just interested in having Jewish events displayed in their regular calendars, there's an easier way when using the Google Calendar: Log in to your Google account, go to your calendar, and add the Hebrew on as additional source. Then on your Android device, go to Settings → Accounts & Synchronization, and activate it. Done.

The Jewish calendar follows its own rhythm. First, the day starts with the evening (as you can read in the biblical creation report: And the evening and the morning were the first/second/… day). Thus to tell the date, one needs to know the exact time of sunset on the current location. Second, the calendar literally follows the moon: each month starts with "new moon", so 12 months sum up to 354 days. To avoid having Chanukkah on Pessach, there's a leap month inserted in given intervals.

Siddurim

2019-10-19

The Hebrew term Siddur stands for "order", but it also generally means the "common" Jewish prayer book (order of prayers). For the more specific holidays, there are also more specific Siddurim, usually called Machzor (cycle). Moreover one distinguishes between Siddurim for the ashkenaz and the sephardic customs.
