Lunisolar System

The Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, meaning it uses lunar months while keeping in sync with the solar year using leap months (Adar II). This ensures holidays like Passover always occur in the spring.

The Anno Mundi Epoch

The era used is *Anno Mundi* (year of the world). It counts from the biblical creation of the world, calculated as Oct 7, 3761 BC in the Gregorian calendar.

Usage & Religious Context

The Hebrew day begins at sunset. This converter provides the Hebrew date corresponding to the majority of the Gregorian day (daylight hours).
