1pm Israel is 6:00 am EDT
1pm IDT is 6:00 am EDT in Eastern Time. EDT is 7 hours behind Israel today, and that gap changes during the year, so this is recomputed rather than assumed.
What time is 1pm Israel in EDT?
It is 6:00 am. Eastern is 7 hours behind Israel, so you subtract 7 hours from 1:00 pm and the date does not change. 1pm is afternoon in Israel, the second half of the working day, while 6:00 am is early morning in Eastern, alarms, commutes and the first coffee.
Spoken as military time, 1pm is 1300 hours and the result is 0600 hours. The military convention exists precisely because "3 o'clock" is ambiguous twice over: once on the 12 hour clock and once across zones.

The four hours before and after 1pm, in case the meeting moves. The whole window stays on the same day in Eastern, so only the hour changes.

Is 1pm Israel a good time to call EDT?
No. 6:00 am in Eastern is early morning, alarms, commutes and the first coffee. Nobody is taking that call. The zones are 7 hours apart, so the nearest sensible slot is a different hour entirely.
Does daylight saving change 1pm Israel to EDT?
Yes. Sampled at 1pm on every day of 2026, the gap takes 2 different values. Today it is 7 hours, which is why the answer above is dated rather than fixed.
Israel Time is currently on IDT and changes next on Sunday, October 25, 2026, when the clock falls back from 1:59 am to 1:00 am and the offset moves from UTC+3 to UTC+2.
Eastern Time is currently on EDT and changes next on Sunday, November 1, 2026, when the clock falls back from 1:59 am to 1:00 am and the offset moves from UTC-4 to UTC-5.
1pm EDT to Israel, the other way round
Running the question the other way is a different conversion, not a mirror image, because the two zones can be in different daylight saving states on the same date. 1pm EDT is 8:00 pm Israel, which is a different reading from the answer above, because the two directions are separate questions. One wrinkle worth knowing: IST and IDT are two names for the same zone, not two zones. Israel Time reads IST in winter and IDT in summer. When somebody types "israel to est" they nearly always mean the zone rather than the literal winter offset, so this page resolves ISRAEL to Asia/Jerusalem and EST to America/New_York and applies whichever offset is genuinely in force on the day.
