Discussion points
- There are 12 months in the Hebrew calendar (unless it's a leap year, in which case there are 13).
- The holiest festival is Yom Kippur.
- The most joyful festival is Purim.
- The saddest festival is Tisha B'Av.
- The religious yearly cycle and the civil yearly cycle start at different points in the year. This isn't so strange. For example, the school year starts at a different point to the calendar year.
