Following instructions are the product of a forum discussion taken in Drupal Israel site: http://www.drupal.org.il/node/3749 and are based on Mooffie's code with help from Yuval Hagger.
1. In Computed code paste the code that you find here:
http://drupa.co.il/_files/forexternsites/drupal.org-node-622098.txt
2. In Display format paste this:
<?php
$display = $node_field_item['value'];
?>3. If you choose to store it in the database, varchar with 25 characters will be fine.
Note: For English names and calculation of the Jewish data look inside the code for "ELUL".
Comments
the file you link is not
the file you link is not UTF-8 encoded.
Also, this form of code posting is not very usable. if you can make a module out of it you'll get usage stats, bug reports and version control.

Drupal7 computed field gregorian to hebrew date conversion
I couldn't find the code referenced above, and had to figure this out again, so here it is in case anyone else finds themself in a similar situation.
This code converts a cck field called gregorian_date to a string displaying the complete hebrew date:
Computed Code (PHP)
// grab the gregorian date field from this node
$items = field_get_items($entity_type, $entity, 'field_gregorian');
$item = array_pop($items);
$gregorian_date_str = $item['value'];
$gregorian_date = strtotime($gregorian_date_str);
// convert to julian date, and then jewish date
$julian_date = GregorianToJD(format_date($gregorian_date, "custom", "n"), format_date($gregorian_date, "custom", "j"), format_date($gregorian_date, "custom", "Y"));
//$entity_field[0]['value'] = $julian_date;
$hebrew_date = jdtojewish($julian_date);
$hebrew_month_name = jdmonthname($julian_date, 4);
list($hebrew_month, $hebrew_day, $hebrew_year) = split('/',$hebrew_date);
// list($hebrewMonth, $hebrewDay, $hebrewYear) = split('/',$hebrewDate);
$entity_field[0]['value'] = "$hebrew_day $hebrew_month_name, $hebrew_year";
DISPLAY CODE (php) // this is the default
$display_output = $entity_field_item['value'];
