Reading today’s Hebrew date
A Hebrew date is written day, month, year: today it is ד׳ כסלו תשפ״ז. The day and year are written in Hebrew letters, and the thousands of the year are left out. Because the Jewish day starts in the evening, the date shown here holds until nightfall, when the next Hebrew date begins.
