Dates of first week in the year of 2010?

There are a few ways of looking at that. The first 7 days were Friday 1st of January 2010 to Thursday 7th of January 2010. Another way it can be looked at is the week the 1st of January was in. So that would be Sunday the 27th of December 2009 to Saturday the 2nd of January 2010. Another way of looking at it is the first calendar week, which would be Sunday the 3rd of January 2010 to Saturday the 9th of January 2010. The first working week would be Monday the 4th of January 2010 to Friday the 8th of January 2010.

What tradition do jews have on christmas?

Jews do nothing special on Christmas Day. In Western countries, Christmas is usually given as a free vacation day from work, so Jews may go out to eat a meal or to the movies or to a park to enjoy each others' company. However, there is nothing particularly religious that happens.Liberal Jews in the US have a joking tradition of eating Chinese food on Christmas, since these are usually the only restaurants open on Christmas.None. December 25 is a regular weekday in Judaism.
