Hebcal

CalendarsMisc References

Look up anything on the Jewish calendar. Get holidays for any year, candle lighting and Havdalah times for any city, the weekly Torah portion with its aliyot and haftarah, Daf Yomi and fifteen other daily learning cycles, the count of the Omer, the halachic times of the day, yahrzeit and Hebrew birthday dates, and conversion between Hebrew and ordinary dates either way. It can also answer whether a given moment falls in Shabbat or a festival, so a workflow can hold off until it ends. No account or API key is required.

Steps your workflow can run in Hebcal.

List Jewish holidaysList Jewish holidays over a date range or a whole Hebrew year. Choose which groups to include: the major festivals, the minor holidays, the modern Israeli observances, Rosh Chodesh, the minor fasts, the special Shabbatot, Yom Kippur Katan, Shabbat Mevarchim, the molad and the Yizkor dates. Narrow it to Yom Tov only for the days on which work is forbidden, which is the list a business calendar needs.

List candle lighting timesList candle lighting and Havdalah times for a place over a date range. Covers every Friday and every festival eve in the range, not only Shabbat, and says which occasion each lighting belongs to. Each time comes back both as the local clock time and as a full timestamp.

List weekly Torah portionsList Parashat ha-Shavua week by week over a date range or a whole Hebrew year, with the verses read, the haftarah and the maftir for each. Israel and the Diaspora fall out of step for a few months after each Pesach, so the schedule follows whichever was chosen.

List daily learningList the page due each day on any of sixteen daily learning cycles, from Daf Yomi and Mishna Yomi to the two Yerushalmi cycles, the Rambam, Sefer Chofetz Chaim and Pirkei Avot. Every row says which cycle it belongs to and links to the text on Sefaria.

List days of the OmerList the count of the Omer, the forty-nine days between Pesach and Shavuot, with the wording of each night's count and the sefirah the day belongs to. A range outside the Omer answers with nothing rather than an error.

Get Shabbat timesGet one week's candle lighting, Torah portion and Havdalah for a place, pulled apart into fields a message can use directly. Leave the date empty for this week; give any day to get the week that contains it.

Convert a date to the Hebrew calendarConvert one Gregorian date to its Hebrew date, and list any holiday or Torah portion falling on it. A Hebrew day begins at sunset, so turn on 'after sunset' for something that happened after dark: that belongs to the next Hebrew date.

Convert a Hebrew date to the ordinary calendarConvert one Hebrew date to its Gregorian date, and list any holiday or Torah portion falling on it.

List Hebrew dates for a date rangeConvert every day in a date range to its Hebrew date, with the weekday and any holiday or Torah portion falling on it. Up to 180 days at a time.

List ordinary dates from a Hebrew dateConvert a run of days starting from a Hebrew date to ordinary calendar dates. The counterpart of 'List Hebrew dates for a date range' for someone who knows the Hebrew date they are starting from, such as the first of a month.

Get halachic times for a dayGet the zmanim of one day at a place: dawn, sunrise, the latest times for Shema and Shacharit under each opinion, midday, the Mincha times, Plag HaMincha, sunset and the several opinions on nightfall. Every time comes back as a full timestamp in the city's own time zone.

List halachic times for a date rangeGet the zmanim of every day in a range at a place, one row per day. Up to 180 days at a time.

Check whether work is forbiddenCheck whether a moment falls inside Shabbat or a Yom Tov, when work is forbidden. This is the question a scheduler actually asks: not 'is it Saturday?' but 'may this run now?'. Shabbat and the festivals begin at sunset and end at nightfall, so the answer depends on the place as much as the moment. Leave the moment empty to ask about right now.

Get a Torah readingGet one date's Torah reading aliyah by aliyah: the full kriyah as seven aliyot plus the maftir, the haftarah, the triennial cycle reading many Conservative congregations follow, and the Monday and Thursday weekday reading. A date with no reading of its own answers with empty fields rather than an error.

List Torah readings for a date rangeList every Torah reading occasion in a date range, with the verses read for each. Covers more than the Shabbat portions: holiday readings, Rosh Chodesh and the Monday and Thursday weekday readings all appear. Up to 180 days at a time.

List yahrzeit and anniversary datesWork out the Hebrew anniversaries of a date for a run of years. A yahrzeit, a Hebrew birthday or a Hebrew wedding anniversary falls on the Hebrew date of the original event, which drifts against the ordinary calendar by a couple of weeks each year. Give the date it happened on and this returns the observance date for each year, optionally with the four Yizkor dates of each year alongside. Add more people to build one calendar covering a whole family.
