Several websites (Hebcal, Chabad, TorahCalc) all agree that Sun, September 29, 2239 = 29th of Elul, 5999.

Perhaps there's an error in your VBA program?

Hi, we've made a temporary workaround where Google Calendar reminders will be fixed to either Israel Time if you check the "Israel Yizkor schedule", or Eastern Standard Time for all other calendars. This is not a very ideal fix, as it delivers Yahrzeit candle reminders at the wrong time for other locations, but it will work for a large fraction of the Hebcal user base.

    Hi, thanks for using Hebcal and the Google Calendar integration. We're sorry to hear that you're having difficulty seeing an integrated view and are now seeing a separate parallel day. Unfortunately, we can't help much here - we haven't made any change on our end that could cause your Google calendar daily view to appear any differently. 


    Perhaps there is a setting you can change on the Google Calendar side?

    Hi, thanks for using the Hebcal Torah reading pages.

    The repetition of verses in the triennial leyning is intentional. Our publication matches that of the Rabbi Miles Cohen luach. Here is a screenshot

    Hi, thanks for using the Hebcal Yahrzeit + Anniversary Calendar.


    If you know the Hebrew but not the Gregorian date, you can use the Hebrew Date Converter to get the Gregorian date of death, and then come back to the Yahrzeit + Anniversary calendar page.

    If you don't know the Hebrew year, it may be difficult to get a correct date conversion. You could try to estimate it, but depending on the month of the death, you might end up with an incorrect result. The rules for calculating birthdays and yahrzeits are a bit complicated and depend on the actual attributes of the Hebrew year they occurred in -- was it a leap year (Adar vs. Adar I vs. Adar II)? Short Kislev? Long Cheshvan?


    For more details, read the article How does Hebcal determine anniversaries (birthdays, yahrzeits) in Adar, Cheshvan, or Kislev?

    Hi, thanks for using the Hebcal APIs. We're sorry for the inconvenience that your Zapier app broke recently. Yes, we recently made a change to restrict the Hebcal APIs to GET, HEAD, and POST. We no longer allow PUT requests.

    Please update your app to use GET or POST and it should begin working correctly again.

    Thank you for using Hebcal and thank you for the bug report! We're sorry for the inconvenience this issue is causing. You are the second person to report this issue, and it appears that the root cause is Google Calendar does not implement "floating time" in calendar feeds and this explains why the timed events are not working correctly.

    We're going to investigate different options for a fix and will get back to you.

    Thanks for contacting Hebcal! Yes, you are correct, Hebcal for Apple Watch is only for the watch and we do not have an iPhone app. The app is free, so you did not pay anything to download it. Since you paid $0, there is no money to refund.

    Thank you also for choosing Hebcal for your Jewish holiday and calendar needs!

    Kol Tuv,
    Michael & the Hebcal team
