question for [personal profile] mamadeb or [profile] jorit

... or anyone who happens to have a hebrew calendar on them, actually.

by my lunar calendar here, rosh hashanah is this thursday night. question: how many days are in the month of elul? when, specifically, is/was elul 23?

thanks --

i was actually going with the day the calendar tells me is the new moon, and figuring that for the first day of tishri. which, i suppose it is, but since it's friday, that means it's friday evening into saturday ... oy.

so i see where elul 23 was last friday evening/saturday, to which the response is: aw, nuts. :-) but thanks for your help. [installs hebrew-dates calendar on palm pilot]
