ABOUT JEWISH & SECULAR HOLIDAYS

Jewish holidays are mainly in commemoration of important moments in Jewish history, from the exodus from Egypt to the founding of the State of Israel. These holidays are scheduled on the Jewish calendar, not the Gregorian calendar. Some Jews also celebrate secular and Christian holidays, to varying extents.
