Incorrect Reading for November 6 (Toldot)

3 years ago • updated 3 years ago • 2

In fullkriyah-5782.csv the following is shown for the Haftorah of 06-Nov-2021 Parashat Toldot

06-Nov-2021	Toldot	maf	Genesis 28:7 - 28:9
06-Nov-2021	Toldot	Haftara	Malachi 1:1 - 2:7

However, given that Rosh Chodesh Kislev begins at sundown on 05-Nov-2021, the proper reading for the special Rosh Chodesh Haftorah should be: Maftir: Numbers 28:9–15
Please see more here: Rosh Chodesh

Similary, In fullkriyah-5782.csv the following is shown for the Haftorah of 05-Mar-2022 Parashat Noach:

05-Mar-2022	Pekudei	Haftara	I Kings 7:51 - 8:21
05-Mar-2022	Pekudei	Haftara for Sephardim	I Kings 7:40 - 7:50

However, given that Rosh Chodesh Adar begins at sundown on 04-Mar-2022, the proper reading for the special Rosh Chodesh Haftorah should be: Maftir: Numbers 28:9–15

Further, whenever a Shabbat falls on Rosh Chodesh, the parasha reading title should be: "Rosh Chodesh Toldot" as opposed to just being "Toldot" - this allows the user to understand that this is a Rosh Chodesh Shabbat instead of being an ordinary Shabbat.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.

The Haftara for Toldot on 06-Nov-2021 and on 05-Mar-2022 Parashat Pekudei are correct as published.

Neither of those Shabbatot fall on Rosh Chodesh. Please check your dates carefully before posting bug reports.

Rosh Chodesh Kislev for Hebrew Year 5782 begins at sundown on Thursday, 4 November 2021 and ends at nightfall on Friday, 5 November 2021.

Rosh Chodesh Adar II for Hebrew Year 5782 begins at sundown on Wednesday, 2 March 2022 and ends at nightfall on Friday, 4 March 2022.

Thanks for clarifying!

I was looking at the Chabad calendar:

https://www.chabad.org/calendar/view/month.asp?tdate=3/8/2022

I now realize that the Rosh Chodesh that is shown begin's during the previous day's sunset. That was my mistake. Thank you!
