Rosh Chodesh and Chanukah (Halacha a day)
By Jewish iPhone | December 6th, 2010 | Category: Halacha a Day, iRabbi | No Comments »Tomorrow (Tuesday, December 7, 2010) and Wednesday is Rosh Chodesh Tevet.
Rosh Chodesh Tevet is the only time the full-Hallel is said on Rosh Chodesh. (Usually on Rosh Chodesh we leave out 2 half-paragraphs.)
Between Shacharit and Mussaf we will take out 2 Sifrei Torah. First we call up 3 people to the Torah for Rosh Chodesh and then – in the second Sefer Torah – a fourth person for Chanukah.
We then daven Mussaf for Rosh Chodesh, with Al Hanisim.
Starting tonight – Monday night – don’t forget Ya’aleh Veyavo and Al Hanisim in the Amida and Birkat Hamazon.
