Your comments

Hello, thanks for your message. Passover for Israel ended on Monday, 29 April 2024 and in the Diaspora it ended on Tuesday, 30 April 2024.


If somehow you found a place where the Hebcal.com website displayed the incorrect date, we would like to fix the error. Could you please share a URL or a screenshot where you see the mistake?

Hi, thanks for your message.


Our daily learning program includes Tanakh Yomi. This is a daily learning cycle for completing Tanakh annually. On Shabbat, each Torah portion is recited. On weekdays, Prophets and Writings are recited according to the ancient Masoretic division of sedarim. This cycle is completed each year.

For example, today's Tanakh Yomi is Ezekiel Seder 18 (Ezekiel 29:21-31:18)

Do you have a source for a different daily chumash study schedule?

What is your source for Daily Rashi?

Chag Pesach Sameach and Shabbat Shalom!

Looks like an issue with you using an older version of Node.js


Try using @hebcal/core version 5.3.3 and see if that fixes the problem for you?

This article describes how to make changes to a Yahrzeit + Anniversary calendar that you downloaded, exported or subscribed to in a calendar app like Outlook, Google Calendar / Android, or Apple (iOS, iPhone, iPad or Mac).

These instructions apply to personal events such as yahrzeits, Hebrew Birthdays, and Hebrew Anniversaries.

Hi, thanks for contacting Hebcal. Although the underlying Hebcal algorithms support calculation of halachic times (zmanim) we have not built a website interface for calculating times. We do plan to eventually offer this feature but do not have a fi date to share.


We do have an experimental zmanim feed which requires some technical comfort editing a URL and offers only very limited customization options

Consider MyZmanim.com as an alternative website that offers lots of customization

Thanks for your question. The Jewish new year, Rosh Hashanah, occurs in the autumn. The year changes from 5784 to 5785 on Wednesday 2 October 2024.


For more information read the Wikipedia article describing the 4 new years in the Hebrew calendar

Are you building your app in JavaScript? There is a great API that estimates timeZoneID from latitude and longitude

The same API may be available in other programming languages

Thanks for using Hebcal!


Shabbat times can indeed be downloaded to iCalendar but we could improve our user experience to make this easier to find.

From a Shabbat times page like this one:

https://www.hebcal.com/shabbat?zip=02906&ue=on&M=on&lg=s

If you click the "2024 calendar" button like below:

Which will take you to a page that lets you download/subscribe as follows:

Thanks for the feedback about our Apple Watch app. We will consider this suggestion and hope to incorporate it in a future update.
