86: # From Ephraim Silverberg (April 18, 1989):
87:
88: # Prior to 1989, the rules concerning Daylight Savings Time changed every
89: # year; as information, regarding exact times and dates during this period,
90: # is not readily available at the present time, the rules commence starting
91: # with the year 1989.
92:
93: # From 1989 onwards the rules are as follows:
94: #
95: # 1. Daylight Savings Time commences midnight of the first Saturday night
96: # following the seven-day festival of Pesach (Passover). The transition
97: # is from midnight Israel Standard Time to 1 a.m. Israel Daylight Savings
98: # time. As the Pesach festival is dependent on the Lunar calendar (the
99: # first day is always on the 15th day of the month of Nisan), the rule
100: # changes every year on the Gregorian calendar.
101: #
102: # 2. Standard Time is reinstated on the Saturday night whereupon Jews
103: # following the Ashkenazi (European) rite begin to recite the Selichot
104: # (forgiveness) prayers prior to the Jewish Lunar New Year. The transition
105: # is from midnight Israel Daylight Savings time to 11 p.m. Israel Standard
106: # Time. The law (according to the Ashkenazi custom) concerning the
107: # commencement of the Selichot prayers is described in chapter 128, section
108: # 5 of the "Code of Jewish Law," by Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried (translated by
109: # Hyman E. Goldin):
110: #
111: # Beginning with the Sunday [**] before Rosh Hashanah [***],
112: # we rise early for the service of Selichot (supplications for
113: # forgiveness). If Rosh Hashanah occurs on Monday or Tuesday, we
114: # begin saying the Selichot from the Sunday of the preceding week.
115: #
116: # This, too, varies from year to year on the Gregorian calendar and, thus,
117: # two explicit timezone rules are required for each Gregorian year.
118: #
119: # [**] actually Saturday night as the Jewish day commences at nightfall.
120: # [***] the Jewish Lunar New Year.
