About these dates
- The dates follow the fixed Hebrew calendar, worked out by rule rather than by sighting the moon, so communities everywhere keep the same days.
- Jewish days begin at sunset: each holiday begins on the evening before the first date shown and ends at nightfall on its last.
- Outside Israel, Passover lasts eight days and Shavuot two, and Simchat Torah is the day after Shemini Atzeret; in Israel Passover lasts seven days and Shavuot one, and Simchat Torah falls on Shemini Atzeret.
- Purim is on the 14th of Adar, of Adar II in a leap year; Jerusalem keeps it a day later, as Shushan Purim.
- When the 9th of Av falls on Shabbat, the Tisha B’Av fast is put off to Sunday.
