Shavuot wrong dates

ronmar 3 years ago updated by Michael J. Radwin 3 years ago 3

Hi,

First of all, thank you for this great API/data!

Second, I saw that there is Shavuot I (17.05.2021) and Shavuot II (18.05.2021) in the API as I'm a jew and living in Israel I don't know anything about these two, Shavuot is a two days holiday, there is only Shavuot Eve (Erev Shavuot 16.05.2021) and Shavuot (17.05.2021).

here is a picture from google to confirm it:

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.

For Israel this is the URL we publish which shows only one day for Shavuot

https://www.hebcal.com/holidays/shavuot?i=on


Which says: Shavuot (Festival of Weeks) for Hebrew Year 5782 begins in 🇮🇱 at sundown on Saturday, 4 June 2022 and ends at nightfall on Sunday, 5 June 2022.

And for Diaspora (chutz l'aretz) we publish this page

https://www.hebcal.com/holidays/shavuot

Which says: Shavuot (Festival of Weeks) for Hebrew Year 5782 begins in the Diaspora at sundown on Saturday, 4 June 2022 and ends at nightfall on Monday, 6 June 2022.


I hope this extra location information helps.

"Shavuot II" should be "Isru Chag"/אסרו חג
