Description
Today there is no Sanhedrin to set Rosh Chodesh by sightings of the new moon. How is our calendar designed? Why can Rosh Hashanah not fall on Sunday, Wednesday or Friday? How are leap years set, and how are solar and lunar years kept in balance?
Harav David Feinstein, Rosh Yeshivah of Mesivtha Tifereth Jerusalem, analyzes these questions and adds insights into the special days of the year, their laws and the reasons for familiar customs.
