Our REST API doesn't yet expose holiday Torah readings. This is a missing feature
https://github.com/hebcal/dotcom/issues/16
In the interim, your best bet might to download CSV leyning spreadsheets that we post here, as they include the aliyah-by-aliyah breakdown:
You will find several at http://www.hebcal.com/ical
70 years after 5 Iyyar 5708 on the Hebrew calendar would be 5 Iyyar 5778. You can convert that back to Gregorian at http://www.hebcal.com/converter/
Rosh Hashana falls on the 1st of Tishrei, between Elul and Cheshvan.
You can download calendars for Google Calendar and more at http://www.hebcal.com/ical
The month of Elul has 29 days. No mistake on our calendar.
Sorry to hear that Alexa is having trouble recognizing the name of our skill.
You can try saying "Alexa, open Hebcal"
Hello,
Hebcal.com does not provide Android apps, free or premium. We have been providing a Jewish holiday and calendar website since 1998. Recently, an unaffiliated 3rd party called BotenSoft released a similarly-named Android app called HebCal.
If you're looking for support for the unrelated BotenSoft product, please contact Nahum Ben-Porath of BotenSoft.
Thanks for the bug report! We fixed the problem.
Thanks for your message. Sorry for the inconvenience!
To fix the problem, please edit the Hebcal candle-lighting times RSS feed to add the text &pubDate=0
to the end of the URL. For example, if the URL you were using looks like this:
http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat/?cfg=r&geonameid=281184&i=on&m=50
Change it to this:
http://www.hebcal.com/shabbat/?cfg=r&geonameid=281184&i=on&m=50&pubDate=0
