About these Judaism tools
These tools cover what people look up most often: when Shabbat begins, what the Hebrew date is, when a holiday falls this year, and where to find a passage in the Torah or the Talmud. Each one is free and works in your browser.
Shabbat times and the holiday list come from the Hebcal service, and the Hebrew calendar tool uses the Hebrew calendar built into your browser. Torah and Talmud search use the Sefaria library, with an AI search as a back-up when Sefaria has no match. Texts are shown as the sources provide them and are never edited here.
The tools are guides, not a rabbi. Times are calculated, and communities differ on customs such as candle lighting and when Shabbat ends. For questions of halacha, ask your rabbi, and confirm times with your local synagogue.
Good to know
- Check candle lighting times on Thursday or earlier so you are not rushing on Friday.
- Remember that Jewish days and holidays begin at sundown the evening before the date shown.
- When a Torah or Talmud passage matters, look it up in a printed edition as well.
Common questions
Are the Shabbat times exact?
They are calculated for the place you enter by the Hebcal service. Communities differ on offsets such as how many minutes before sunset to light candles, so confirm with your rabbi or synagogue.
Why does a holiday start the evening before?
In the Jewish calendar a day runs from sundown to sundown. The date shown is the day itself, and it begins at sundown on the evening before.
Where does the Torah and Talmud text come from?
From the Sefaria library when it has a match. If it has none, an AI search fills in, and that can contain errors, so check printed editions.
Do these tools give rulings?
No. They give information and dates. For questions of halacha, ask your rabbi.
