5.0 out of 5 stars
A must for the reference shelf of every Jewish Professional,
By Yitzhak Joel Miller (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Comprehensive Hebrew Calendar revised, expanded edition 5660-5860 1900-2100 (Hardcover)
A great reference for holiday dates, candle lighting times, Torah & Haftarah portions, etc. Well laid out and easy to access. If you're looking for a scholarly book on the origin of the Hebrew Calendar, buy something else. Though it's not intended as anything but a reference book, the introduction to the Hebrew Calendar in this book is well-written, concise, informative, and useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent Jewish Calendar,
By Danny "dannyza" (JHB, South Africa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Comprehensive Hebrew Calendar revised, expanded edition 5660-5860 1900-2100 (Hardcover)
Everything I ever wanted in a book-calendar - the order of the Haftarahs, the date and holidays are all clarified either, in the beginning with tables, or in the calendar itself. The introduction is so informative, clear and useful that it precludes many other detailed books.
Be sure to obtain Leo Levi's halachic times for home and travel. It is an excellent supplement to this calendar, that I continue to use for barmitzvahs, yahrtzeits and everything else related to the calendar.

Excellent calendar, but you can find it for much less elsewhere. I got it brand new for $29.99

not what I expected. No words/writing!!!,
This review is from: Comprehensive Hebrew Calendar revised, expanded edition 5660-5860 1900-2100 (Hardcover)
It's just a tabulated thing showing english next to hebrew calendar. For about a hundreds years.
It's pointless nowadays, when we have computers. programs like aishluach or kaluach. I can't believe anybody would rate such a book so highly. Or not make clear what the book is in their reviews. I did once see a book with a similar cover that explained the calendar. That was what I was looking for. This was very misleading. |
