Thanks for using Hebcal, and thanks so much for this bug report!


We have confirmed the issue and have developed and deployed a fix:

https://github.com/hebcal/hebcal-icalendar/commit/9395767d11dc4dc2dfc57c36d255941042ef1290#diff-2b3ef07a560bda7207107aed8282a85acf1bac3b482948a584bf0c4e1d945f27

The .ics feeds are updated as of Sunday evening on hebcal.com, but take as long as 7 days to refresh with applications that consume them (e.g. Google Calendar, Apple, Outlook, etc). Please check back next week if you still don't see corrected results.

Yes, confirmed. If the `date` field contains a `T` then it includes a time in the timezone specified by the candle-lighting setting.

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal!

According to our sources, Chanukah candles should generally be lit at nightfall, except for erev Shabbat when they must be lit at regular candles lighting time (18 minutes before sunset). 

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal!

In Israel there is only one day of Shavuot. In the diaspora there are two days. 

Please be sure that you download the version that matches your location. 

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.

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

In your case, if you already have the Hebrew date, you don't need the exact time of death. When you convert from Hebrew to Gregorian date, you'll want to use the "before sunset" option on the Yahrzeit page to retain the same Hebrew date.

Thanks for the feedback - the PDF for Hebrew dates now shows both transliterations and Hebrew text.

Hi Linda, thanks for noticing! We'll get the Hebrew translation up there soon.

In Israel only, the 5th day of Sukkot Chol haMoed can fall on Shabbat. This will happen in 2022, for example:
