4pm Israel is 9:00 am EDT
4pm IDT is 9:00 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 4pm Israel in EDT?
It is 9:00 am. Eastern is 7 hours behind Israel, so you subtract 7 hours from 4:00 pm and the date does not change. 4pm is afternoon in Israel, the second half of the working day, while 9:00 am is mid morning in Eastern, the busiest stretch of the working morning.
The 12 hour clock reuses every number twice, so 4pm and 4am differ only by the meridiem. Converting 4pm Israel gives 9:00 am EDT; converting 4am Israel gives 9:00 pm EDT. Losing the am or pm loses half the answer.
4pm Israel to EDT in the hours either side
The four hours before and after 4pm, in case the meeting moves. The whole window stays on the same day in Eastern, so only the hour changes.

Is 4pm Israel a good time to call EDT?
Yes. 4pm in Israel lands at 9:00 am in Eastern, which is inside the 9:00 am to 5:00 pm working day on both sides. It is afternoon for the caller and mid morning for the person picking up, so nobody is being asked for a favour.
Does daylight saving change 4pm Israel to EDT?
Yes. Sampled at 4pm 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.
4pm 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. 4pm EDT is 11:00 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.
