Today is: Shabbat, Adar 23, 5772
Parah

======================
Today's Laws & Customs
======================

· Parshat Parah

The Torah reading of Parah (Numbers 19) is added to the weekly reading. Parah details the laws of the "Red Heifer" and the process by which a person rendered ritually impure by contact with a dead body was purified.

(When the Holy Temple stood in Jerusalem, every Jew had to be in a state of ritual purity in time for the bringing of the Passover offering in the Temple. Today, though we're unable to fulfill the Temple-related rituals in practice, we fulfill them spiritually by studying their laws in the Torah. Thus, we study and read the section of Parah in preparation for the upcoming festival of Passover.)

· Blessing the New Month

This Shabbat is Shabbat Mevarchim ("the Shabbat that blesses" the new month): a special prayer is recited blessing the Rosh Chodesh ("Head of the Month") of upcoming month of Nissan, which occurs next Shabbat.

Prior to the blessing, we announce the precise time of the molad, the "birth" of the new moon. Click here [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=6AEFAE8AA2EEFB2C7E3881C2EDC84E49&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] for molad times.

It is a Chabad custom to recite the entire book of Psalms before morning prayers, and to conduct farbrengens (chassidic gatherings) in the course of the Shabbat.

· Mishkan assembled for the 1st time; "Seven Days of Training" begin (1312 BCE)

The Children of Israel began building the "Mishkan [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=CDA65D0EE49930F6D4CFFC07D9510E40&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]" (also called the "Tabernacle"--a portable sanctuary to house the Divine presence in their midst as they journeyed through the desert) on the 11th of Tishrei of the year 2449 from creation (1312 BCE) -- six months after their Exodus [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=727DD9967DA55B08DF573FF166844620&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] from Egypt, three months after the revelation at Sinai [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=1E60836300FD41924E852FF021F9918F&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ], and 80 days after their worship of the Golden Calf [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=B47E032E8001A2C46EE1EB1D8D926832&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]. The construction of the Mishkan, which followed a detailed set of instructions issued to Moses on Mount Sinai, lasted 74 days, and was completed on the 25th of Kislev [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=3B6DDAED7C0911245CEEF946B9FAB66B&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ]; but the Divine command to erect the edifice came only three months later, on the 23rd of Adar, when Moses was instructed to begin a 7-day "training [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=677C6EE182159893189114B862624EE2&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] period."

During the week of Adar 23-29, the Mishkan was erected each morning and dismantled each evening; Moses served as the High Priest and initiated Aaron [ http://link.Chabad.org/go.asp?li=2A97AF919DB2B8A0BB83F237380715A5&ui=F8C16ABBBCDB72AD0024EE2F647D78D2 ] and his four sons into the priesthood.

· Passing of 1st Rebbe of Ger (1866)

Chassidic Rabbi Yitzchak Meir Altar (1799-1866), author of Chiddushei Harim (a commentary on the Talmud and Shulchan Aruch), was a disciple of the Maggid of Koshnitz and Rabbi Simcha Bunim of Peshischa, and the founder of the "Ger" (Gerer) Chassidic dynasty. All his 13 sons had died in his lifetime, and he was succeeded (in 1870) by his young grandson, Rabbi Yehudah Leib Alter (the "Sefat Emmet").
