Rosh Chodesh Alef
Greetings to all!
With the grace of Hashem, came across this astounding important info...In earlier manuscripts of Rashi (Yirmiyahu 36-6) he quotes in the name of Ovadiya the prophet ,that Rosh Chodesh Kislev has the status of Yom Kippur!!!!This is also brought down by the Chatam Sofer (Drashot volume 2 page 379). Rabbi Tzvi Hirsh of Furth (1700's Germany) writes in his book Likutay Tzvi (page 518): "There are 40 days of Repentance from Rosh Chodesh Elul culminating on Yom Kippur, likewise there are 40 days between Hoshana Raba and Rosh Chodesh Kislev which has the status of Yom Kippur"!!Let each one of us take advantage of this massive opportunity to improve ourselves just a little bit.Redemption now .Yehuda
