Remembering Moshe Rabbeinu

Thursday night 13 March & Friday 14 March / 7 Adar II:

Yahrzeit of Moshe Rabbeinu -- Moses -- who died in the year 1272 B.C.E. If a death occurred in the month of Adar in a year that was not a leap year, it is customary to observe the Yahrzeit in both months of Adar in a leap year. On Moses' yahrzeit it is appropriate to strengthen oneself in belief in Moses and the Torah:"And they believed in HaShem and in Moses His servant" (Exodus 14:31). Breslover Chassidim customarily recite prayers on the theme of attachment to the true Tzaddik from Likutey Tefilot (e.g. Part I, Prayers 18, 30 and 64; Part II Prayers 7 & 20).
