Therefore, there may be slight variations in the dates provided here and local observances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, a day in the Jewish calendar begins at sundown and ends at the following sunset (Islamic days are also like this). This means that Jewish holidays begin in the evening of a Gregorian calendar day. In some calendars, this is signified by giving two (Gregorian) days for a single Jewish day. Here, we give the Gregorian day that a Jewish day ends and note the \u201ceve\u201d separately when there are work restrictions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About the Interreligious Calendar Major holidays appear here through October 2027.
