Hi, thanks for using Hebcal!
To display a Jewish calendar on your website, you can use event data from Hebcal.com and the open source JavaScript event calendar from fullcalendar.io.
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.
If you know the Hebrew but not the Gregorian date, use the Hebrew Date Converter to get the Gregorian date and then come back to the Yahrzeit and Anniversary page.
In your case, if you already have the Hebrew date, you don't need the exact time of death. When you convert from Hebrew to Gregorian date, you'll want to use the "before sunset" option on the Yahrzeit page to retain the same Hebrew date.
i am attempting to set up a Hebrew calendar in columns in Excel.
I want to use the spreadsheet to record Hebrew history and current events. I have started with Metonic cycle 304 but it is taking me forever. Will you be able to assist me in setting up such a columnar spreadsheet containing all your calendar data? I am planning to eventually include all the cycles in this spreadsheet. Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Triennial spreadsheet
I am not able to import the triennial Torah spreadsheet to Microsoft Outlook. Can anyone offer some suggestions.
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal. We're sorry to hear that you're having some difficulty with the triennial leyning spreadsheet
We recommend that you download Comma Separated Value (CSV) file from Hebcal and import into Microsoft Excel or some other spreadsheet program. We don't recommend importing these CSV files into Outlook.
hebrew date begins in evening
If the yorzeit is on כ״ה סיון, hebcal says it is June 17 (this year). The question is: since hebrew dates start at sunset, not midnight, then is the date June 17 the day on which the hebrew date starts, or ends?
This is important to people who need to observe the yorzeit exactly on the date.
Hi, thanks for using Hebcal and thanks for your patience!
As you have noticed, calendars exported from Hebcal to Apple or Google Calendar or other services that support iCalendar subscription feeds are typically “perpetual”. That is, they contain events for the current year (Gregorian or Hebrew) plus some number of years into the future. Our calendars typically have 5 years of events (current year plus 4 years into the future).
Subscription feeds are the recommended approach because they are easier to manage (with different alarm options, etc) and because Jewish calendar events can be displayed in a different color.
If you'd like to capture historical holidays from Hebcal and merge them into your personal calendar, this can indeed be done with a little bit of additional export/import effort.
You can visit our https://www.hebcal.com/hebcal page and enter a past year (for example 2015) in the form and then click on the Create Calendar button.
On the calendar results page, click the Download button and note the "Alternate option" text at the very bottom of the Download dialog box.
Alternate option: Download hebcal_2015.ics and then follow our Google Calendar import instructions.
If you click on this link, it will download a file (not a subscription feed) with exactly one year of events, which you can then import into your preferred calendar application.
Indicate on Holiday page if year is a Leap Year (or put * near Purim date)
just like I asked above
Torah sequencing
Reform Judaism celebrates Shavuot as 1 day. Therefore this Shabbat is Naso. That gets it out of sync with everyone else. When do we all catch up with each other?
