How the date is set

The Hebrew calendar is lunisolar: twelve lunar months fall about eleven days short of a solar year, so a thirteenth is added seven times in every nineteen. The Gregorian date therefore swings by a fortnight or more between years rather than drifting steadily, and the holiday stays in its season.
