HaSafran posting on coincidence of first candle of Chanukah falling on Dec. 25.
======================== I used Lester Penner's JCAL (Jewish Calendar Program (http://www.lespenner.com/) to create a 200 year list of secular dates for Kislev 26, remembering that the holiday begins at sundown the previous date. I then sorted by year: Tue December 25 2046 Thu December 25 2092 Tue December 25 2103 Fri December 25 2122 Mon December 25 2141 Thu December 25 2160 Tue December 25 2198 If anybody else raises this question before 2198, your are set. Otherwise, write to me for an update. Chag sameach. _________________________________________________ Dr. Don Weinshank Professor Emeritus Comp.
