What is the major difference between the Jewish calendar and the Gregorian calendar?
The Gregorian calendar is a purely solar calendar, while the Jewish calendar is a solar-lunar calendar. In a bit more detail, the Gregorian calendar has months that have nothing to do with the moon and a leap day is added in February every few years to keep the days and months in their right season. In the Jewish calendar, every month starts with the new moon and a leap month is inserted (by doubling the spring month of Adar) when needed to keep the months in their right season.
