A Note About Jewish Holidays


All Jewish holidays begin at sunset—since that's when the Jewish "day" begins. The dates specified here are for those evenings, so the holiday extends from sunset on that date until dusk on the next.

Instructions

They translate it as “The Bible,” or “The Law,” but that’s not what the word means. Torah means “instructions.”

Whatever piece of Torah you learn, you must find the instructions it is giving you.
