Not perfectly on time; possibly somewhat late, but no harm is done as a result. The implication is that there is no need to be exactly on time, and starting a little late is acceptable.
The term comes from Jewish culture, which is often relaxed about punctuality.
When an event is schedule to take place at 2:00 Jewish time, it could be at 2:05, 2:12, 2:15, or even 2:35, and everyone is satisfied.
The wedding will start at 6:00 PM Jewish time.
We will meet in the lobby at 4:30 Jewish time.

The personification of Time and the more friendly version of the Grim Reaper. Typically pictured as an old man with a white beard doning a cloak and oft times carrying a scythe and hourglass. In ancient times he was known as Chronus or Saturn.
Father Time is married to Mother Earth; just as the Grim Reaper, the personification of Death, is married to Life who pictured as a young lady in artwork.
He symbolizes the flow of time and its effects. His old body is a reminder that time is the devourer of all things and that, like the sand in the hourglass he often carries, his life will run out, as all good things come to an end.
He turns the seasons around
And so she changes her gown
But they always look in their prime
They go on dancing their dance
Of every lasting romance
Mother Earth and Father Time
The summer larks return to sing
Oh what a gift they give
Then autumn days grow short and cold
Oh what a joy to live
How very special are we
For just a moment to be
Part of life’s eternal rhyme
How very special are we
To have on our family tree
Mother Earth and Father Time

Filipino Time, which means things get done whenever they get done. Official Timing of The Phillipines.
I set up a party for 6:00. This is interpretted as 7:00 filipino time.
In some cases, filipino hosts deliberately set the time an hour or so earlier, knowing that the guests will arrive an hour or so late. In this case, the poor americans are surprised to see that they're the first ones to arrive and the only ones there for the first hour or so.

The time of the morning, just on dawn when the noise of birds screeching across the sky and screaming from the trees is so
loud it wakes people out of their drink-induced comas.
My head was thumping with the most massive hangover and I'd only
crawled into bed 30 minutes earlier when the noisiest bird time I've
ever heard made it impossible to sleep.

An excuse for arriving anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours late to any party, meeting, or hanging out. Only exclusive to Filipinos, this is the standard time any Filipino will arrive to. Many people of other races hate it, because most of them will arrive on the marked time.
Jack: Dude, where's Nick?
Paul: Oh, he's on Filipino time. Expect him in a few minutes to a few hours.
- a few hours later -
Nick: Sup guys!
Jack: Dude, WTF? Why are you so late?
Nick: Filipino time.

The popular dance from the movie and stage show, simple because the song, Time Warp instructs the Time-Warper how the dance is preformed mid-song. The song found its origins when Richard O'Brien and his former wife Kimmi wanted to introduce a dance like the Madison. Australian Little Nell was another reason for the Time Warp's birth, as those involved in the play believed Nell should have a song. Thus, she has a solo and a tap-dance routine. In the original stage show, this song was after Sweet Transvestite, and only preformed by the local aliens (Magenta, Riff-Raff, Dr. Frank-N-Furter, and Nell's currently nameless character). However, Frank-N-Furter's guests, the Transylvanians take to the dance in the movie. This prompts moviegoers to get up and do the dance with them, and this is the most widely accepted form of the audience participation phenomenon that has accompanied this bizarre cult film.
"1. (It's just a) JUMP TO THE LEFT, with hands UP.
2. A STEP TO THE RIGHT (Time-Warper ANNETTE FUNICELLO suggests a very WIDE step.)
3.* (With your hands on your HIPS) YOU BRING YOUR KNEES IN TIGHT.
4. (Then) THE PELVIC THRUST (if repeated FIVE times, itnearly drives you insa-a-ane)
5. HIPSWIVEL (if not driven insa-a-ane by step four)
6. LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!
* Those with LIMB DISABILITIES may find it necessary to ALTER or DELETE this action, but NO EXCUSES for alterations to steps four and five."
It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right. With your hands on your hips, you bring your knees in tight. But it's the pelvic thrust that nearly drives you insa-a-a-a-a-ane. Let's do the Time Warp again.
