thanks for your message. You are correct that Parashat Vayechi is not read during the Gregorian year 2024. This is not a bug. Parashat Vayechi is read once every Hebrew year but is not guaranteed to be read during every Gregorian year.

Note the dates that the parsha is read below, and you will see that although it is read once every Hebrew year, it is sometimes read twice in the same Gregorian year and not at all in the following Gregorian year.

Parashat Vezot Habracha is not read on Shabbat. Instead it is read during Simchat Torah.


Thanks for contacting Hebcal!

From within Flutter, you can use any of the Hebcal developer APIs

If you have a Yahrzeit occuring on that date, you should expect to see the anniversary sometimes in December and some years in January.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal! Sorry to hear that you're having difficulty downloading.

Most users are able to successfully download by following our step-by-step instructions for importing Hebcal calendars into the following applications:

If after reviewing these instructions, you continue to experience difficulty, could you please post some screenshots with error messages so we can diagnose further?

Happy Chanukah!

Thanks for using Hebcal!

We offer several options for developers to customize zmanim by degrees or minutes. Currently both Havdalah and fast end times can be configured as degrees (defaulting to 8.5 and 7.083 respectively). These options are documented in the @hebcal/core README.

For regular users, unfortunately, we do not yet offer the ability to specify degrees on the Hebcal.com website. There's a toggle between 8.5 degrees for Havdalah (default) or user-specified minutes past sundown. The current website design is limited in this simplicity, which seems to work for the majority of users. At some point we'd like to add more configuration options to the website.

If you are a website user, what kind of settings would you like access to? Do you have an example application you've seen that could help to demonstrate the kind of user interface for setting these options that you could share a screenshot of?

Sorry to hear about your duplicate calendar events. It sounds like you may have subscribed to multiple Hebcal calendars in Google Calendar.

Please note, there is a confusingly similar named Android app called HebCal & Widget available on the Google Play store. This app is not affiliated with Hebcal.com in any way. It is developed by a completely separate organization called BotenSoft. The Hebcal name isn't trademarked so we can't stop them from using it.

Although they use the same name, we have no relationship with BotenSoft and cannot offer support for their app.

    We have corrected the algorithm on the Hebcal website so it now displays the correct reading for Sunday, 28 April 2024 (and for future years where Pesach falls on the same days of the week, such as 2028 / 5788).

    Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.

    If you would like the dates to be right-to-left, please visit https://www.hebcal.com/hebcal and for the Event titles Language selector, choose "Hebrew" or "Hebrew (no nikud)" as follows:
