Israeli Jewish Holidays

The beginning of the holiday
All Jewish holidays start the evening before the actual date. The reason is that a Jewish "day" starts with sunset and finishes with the next sunset, and therefore not starts and finishes at midnight. When you read the story of the Creation in Genesis 1, you will notice that there is written: "And the evening and the morning were …" (From that we have concluded that a day starts at night, this means after sunset). For this reason Shabbat and all holidays start at sunset and they end when three stars appear in the sky.
