This tool quickly converts your birth date from the Gregorian calendar to the Hebrew calendar.
How to Use the Hebrew Birthday Calculator
To use the calculator, simply input your Gregorian birth date (format: YYYY-MM-DD) and click the “Calculate” button. The result will display your corresponding Hebrew birth date.
How the Calculator Works
This calculator converts a given Gregorian date into a Hebrew date using Julian Day numbers as an intermediary. The conversion process consists of the following steps:
- Convert the Gregorian date to a Julian Day number (JD).
- Calculate the elapsed days since the Hebrew calendar began.
- Determine the Hebrew year, month, and day from the Julian Day number.
Note that the Hebrew calendar is lunisolar, meaning it is based on the cycles of both the moon and the sun. As such, the algorithm considers leap years and varying month lengths.
Limitations
This calculator follows standard Jewish calendar rules but may not account for historical variations in calendrical calculations. The results should be accurate for dates from 1583 onwards. Additionally, the user must input the date in the YYYY-MM-DD format for accurate results. If the input field is left blank or contains an invalid date, an alert will prompt the user to enter a valid date.
