  • Significant Times and Dates
    Significant Times and Dates Festivals The Jewish Calendar Jewish holidays or festivals (yamim tovim) are holidays observed by Jews throughout the Hebrew calendar and include religious, cultural, and national aspects. Some are derived from Biblical mitzvot (commandments), others from rabbinic mandates, while others commemorate Jewish history and the history of the State of Israel. All Jewish holidays begin the evening before the date specified. This is because a Jewish day begins and ends at sunset, rather than at midnight. (It is inferred from the story of creation in Genesis, where it says, “And there was evening, and there was morning, one day”.) Jewish holidays occur on the same dates every year in the Hebrew calendar, but the dates vary in the Gregorian calendar. This is because the Hebrew calendar is a lunisolar calendar (based on the cycles of both the moon and sun), whereas the Gregorian calendar is only a solar calendar. The Jewish calendar is primarily lunar, with each month beginning on the new moon. There are approximately 12.4 lunar months in every solar year, so a 12- month lunar calendar loses about 11 days every year. To prevent the “drifting” of months and holy days, Hillel II, in the fourth century, established a fixed calendar based on mathematical and astronomical calculations. This calendar, still in use today, realigned the lunar calendar with the solar years. Holidays of biblical and rabbinic (Talmudic) origin include Q The Sabbath Q Rosh Chodesh—The New Month Q Rosh Hashanah—The Jewish New Year Q Aseret Yemei Teshuva—Ten

The Holy Days are: both days of Rosh Hashanah; Yom Kippur; the first two days of Succoth; the final two days of Succoth (also referred to as Shmini Atzeret, and Simchat Torah); Purim; the first two days of Passover; the final two days of Passover; both days of Shavuot; and, the ninth day of Av (Tisha B’Av). Preferably, no tests should be given on a number of additional special days of commemoration. These are: the Fast of Gedalia; the eve of Yom Kippur; the intermediate days of Succoth; Fast of the tenth day of Tevet; the Fast of Esther; the eve of Passover; the intermediate days of Passover; Fast of the seventeenth day of Tammuz; the eve of Tisha B’Av. If testing on one of these days is unavoidable, students requesting deferral should be accommodated without prejudice with a make‐up exam. Passover imposes singular and unusually‐stringent kosher demands of all foods. The cost of making a cafeteria (if applicable) and vending equipment kosher to Passover’s exacting standards are quite high and Passover food costs are significantly higher than kosher food costs year‐round. Thus, it may be preferable, if feasible, to offer spring break vacation during the week of Passover in order to avoid the challenges of compliance with these holiday requirements.
