We have added Molad times to the Hebrew Date converter. They appear on the Shabbat prior to Rosh Chodesh.

On weekdays, the sections from Prophets and Writings in Tanakh Yomi are recited according to the ancient Masoretic division of sedarim. Hebcal uses the section divisions as published by Sefaria.org.

For example, looking at recent days:

Friday, 24 October 2025

Joshua Seder 9

Joshua 14:15-17:3

Sunday, 26 October 2025

Joshua Seder 10

Joshua 17:4-18:27

Monday, 27 October 2025

Joshua Seder 11

Joshua 18:28-19:50

Indeed, the Masoretic sectional divisions seem closely but not perfectly aligned with modern chapter divisions.

I'm not an expert in why and how the Masoretic sectional divisions differ from modern chapter divisions. 

Thanks for the bug report; we're terribly sorry about this error. It has been fixed. Please try again.

Thanks for your message. What you're seeing in iOS 26 is a feature of Apple's operating system called Alternate Calendars and not something that Hebcal.com controls.

If you don't wish to see the Hebrew date in Hebrew, you can disable the Hebrew calendar on iOS 26 following Apple's instructions:

Change how your calendar is displayed

You can customize the way your calendar is displayed to help highlight the information that’s most important to you. For example, you can choose which day you want to start the week with, display the Chinese, Hebrew, or Hijri calendar (alongside the Gregorian calendar), and more.

1. Go to the Settings app on your iPhone.
2. Tap Apps, then tap Calendar.
3. Do any of the following:
   • Display the Chinese, Hebrew, or Hijri calendar: Tap Alternate Calendars, then choose a calendar.
   • Display the week number next to every week of the year: Turn on Week Numbers.
   • Show the current day as the first day in Week view: Turn on Week View Starts On Today.
   • Choose a different day to start the week: Tap Start Week On, then tap a day.

Thanks for the suggestion about adding molad times to the Hebrew date converter.

If you'd like to see historical molad, you can use the undocumented molad=1 URL parameter on the Custom Calendar page like this:

https://www.hebcal.com/hebcal?v=1&year=5783&yt=H&molad=1&maj=off&min=off&nx=off&mod=off&mf=off&ss=off

Molad times are displayed in the "memo" field of our Shabbat Mevarchim calendar feed

https://www.hebcal.com/ical/#heading-mevarchim

Molad days and times on Hebcal.com are always listed with respect to the time in Jerusalem

Does this help?

Hi, thanks for contacting us!

The Hebcal website and APIs support 13 different languages for event titles. By default, Hebcal uses Sephardic transliterations. To transliterate event titles in a different language, specify lg=LANG parameter using one of the following values listed on this page.

https://www.hebcal.com/home/4534/jewish-calendar-event-language-support

If you're seeing Ashkenazic transliterations, this means that your site is using lg=a or possibly a very old  a=on  API parameter.

Change to  lg=s   and remove any occurrences of  a=on  and you'll be all set!

If you used Hebcal to create your personal calendar after August 2020 and you subscribed using the recommended feed option, you can click on the hebcal.com URL at the bottom of any calendar event in the feed to make changes or add additional names.

Visiting that link will take you back to the Yahrzeit and Anniversary calendar where you can make edits to each person's name or dates. You can also use that link to add additional names and dates to the same calendar.

After making changes on the Hebcal.com website, you do not need to resubscribe to the calendar feed in Google Calendar. Any changes you make on the Hebcal.com website will automatically be updated in the calendar feed and show up in your 3rd party calendar app, typically about 24 hours after the change is made on the Hebcal.com site.

If it's been more than 48 hours and you still don't see changes reflected in the Google Calendar, please send your private Hebcal calendar URL to mradwin@hebcal.com and we can investigate further. You'll find your personal URL in your email confirmation message, or at the bottom of any yahrzeit event that is already showing up in Google Calendar.

For further instructions please read
