UK Reform triennial

G H 2 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 2 years ago 1

Hebcal currently presents the American Conservative triennial as the only triennial. In fact, you have to go deep into Hebcal to even find the triennial is from the Rabbinical Assembly: https://www.hebcal.com/home/50/what-is-the-triennial-torah-reading-cycle

However, the UK Reform movement has been using its own triennial for some time, and the current cycle is published at https://www.reformjudaism.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Calendar-of-Torah-and-Haftarah-Readings-5782-5784.pdf

It would be great if Hebcal could display alternatives, or at least be clear there are alternatives.


Thanks.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal. Sorry to hear that you are having difficulty subscribing to yahrzeit reminders via email.

Perhaps look in your spam folder for the activation message? The email subject is typically "Activate your Yahrzeit reminders" and the email address sending the message is shabbat-owner@hebcal.com

Step by step instructions are listed here:

Hebcal for Outlook 2021

Moish 2 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 2 years ago 1

I cannot find a version for my Microsoft Outlook 2021 for Windows. Not Microsoft 365, not for Mac, just the regular Microsoft Office. Is there a reason it is not available here?

Special Haftarah chanting

Natasha Mann 2 years ago updated by Rabbi Natasha Mann 2 years ago 4

Hi all, I am hugely appreciating all the Torah and Haftarah info! 

I think it would be wonderful to have notes under the Haftarot that have special chanting, such as Haftarat Chazon. Maybe a line saying "this Haftarah has special chanting" with a link that takes you somewhere that breaks it down. I understand that some communities might do it differently to ours, in which case laying out the differences might prove too tricky.
