*Note: Some Hebrew feasts and festivals last for longer than one day. Each day listed is the first full day of a feast, festival or holy day [following its commencement at sundown the night before], except for Passover which begins at mid-afternoon on Aviv 14 [see Passover and Related Periods chart].
�Note: Some calculate the first day of Shavuot [the Feast of Weeks = Pentecost] as being the fiftieth day following the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a special Sabbath. [This is the bottom date.] Others, including myself, begin the fifty-day count from the day after the regular Sabbath of that week, causing Shavuot always to occur on a the first day of the week. [This is the top date.] See more at Calculating the Timing of Shavuot or Pentecost.
To find the dates of Hebrew feasts, festivals and holy days in various years, go to Jewish Holidays.
