Word of the Month

Parshat Vayeitzei

A weekly feature of Torah Tidbits to help clarify practical and conceptual aspects of the Jewish Calendar, thereby better fulfilling the mitzva of HaChodesh HaZeh Lachem...

The Molad of Kislev was Thursday morning, November 19th, at 8h 23m 17p. That is 8:03am Israel Standard Time. The time in this form should be adjusted for your locality.

3-day people have been saying K.L. since last Sunday night. 7-day people can say it from Thursday night, November 26th. Motza'ei Shabbat people can wait for this Motza"Sh, November 28th, the eve of 10 Kislev.

Deadline for K.L. is half way between Moladot. That is 14 days, 18 hours, 22 minutes from the Molad. This month that translates to 2:25am, early next Friday morning, December 4th. K.L. is a special mitzva/bracha. Do it with joy.
