Jewish Holiday Calendar 2013 - 14
The Jewish Holiday Calendar 2013-14 lists key holidays and their respective dates. All Jewish days begin and end at sunset, therefore all Jewish holidays begin the evening before the date specified on the calendar. New Zealand is uniquely placed in experiencing the Jewish Holidays: given our Oceanic location here at the edge of the world, we are the first to celebrate each holiday as it eventuates!
