Thanks. The Jewish calendar is based on a LUNAR cycle which is technically 354 days in a year -- but the modern Jewish calendar is based on the 360-day prophetic cycle. The Jewish calendar every few years to add an extra month - 2nd Adar to realign itself with the solar cycle. The Gregorian calendar is based on the 365 day SOLAR cycle. So that's why you have divergences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
