Rosh Chodesh Adar II - Event
The Significance of Rosh Chodesh Adar II
Rosh Chodesh Adar II marks an important milestone in the Jewish calendar. It is a time of great celebration and anticipation as we approach the holiday of Purim. The additional month of Adar, known as Adar II in leap years, holds a unique significance for the Jewish community.
Celebrating Joy and Happiness
Adar, in general, is considered a month of joy and happiness. As "Mi'Shenichnas Adar Marbim B'Simcha" - "When Adar enters, joy increases," we strive to embrace the festive spirit and find reasons to rejoice. Rosh Chodesh Adar II serves as a reminder to infuse our daily lives with happiness and gratitude.
Purim Preparations
Rosh Chodesh Adar II serves as a timely reminder to start preparing for the joyous holiday of Purim. Purim commemorates the salvation of the Jewish people from the wicked Haman, as described in the Book of Esther. It is a time when we come together as a community, retell the Megillah (the Scroll of Esther), exchange gifts, and indulge in festive meals.
