SHABBOS HACHODESH
Join us next Tuesday, March 28th, for Rosh Chodesh Nissan services and this Shabbos morning for the fourth and final special Torah reading of: Parshas Hachodesh.

The parshah is read in shul before or on rosh chodesh nisan, in an effort to be m'kadesh, sanctify, the month of nissan in accordance with the Torah's explicit command to do so.

Obviously, true "kidush hachodesh,"  sanctification of the new month, requires proper witnesses of a new moon, a Jewish high court and the bais hamikdash. This special Torah reading then, is m'drabanan, rabbinic in nature.

Regardless, it behooves all men, women, and children, to make every effort to come hear the reading of parshas hachodesh. I'll see you in shul!
          
Have a wonderful Shabbos!

See you in shul,

Rabbi Aaron D. Mehlman
