REMEMBERING RABBI BAUSK - UPDATE
We hope to pay tribute to Rabbi Bausk’s legacy at a special gathering after Pesach. While the Shloshim falls out on the Thursday after Pesach (April 24/25), we hope to select a later date to accommodate out-of-town guests. Please stay tuned for details.

DVAR TORAH From the desk of Rabbi Ackerman (Hear a “Torah Minute” by Rabbi Becker here.) The שירת הים - the Song at the Sea - contains the words, "זה אלי ואנוהו / This is my G-d and I shall consecrate Him." In the Medrash, Rabbi Yehuda tells the fascinating story behind this statement. |
HALACHIC NOTES
- Tefillas Tal was recited on the first day of Pesach; we no longer say Mashiv HaRuach UMorid Hagashem in the second blessing of Shemoneh Esrei, nor Vsen Tal UMatar in the ninth blessing of the weekday Shemoneh Esrei. If one inadvertently did so, Shemoneh Esrei is repeated.
- Candles on Yom Tov may be lit only from a pre-existing flame. A 24-hour Yahrtzeit candle can be kindled Friday afternoon, so that it will burn through Saturday night, enabling one to light candles on the second night of Yom Tov.
- Preparations for the next day are forbidden on Shabbos and Yom Tov, even when no work is involved. Therefore, one may not do anything on Shabbos to prepare for the second day of Yom Tov. One should not light the Yom Tov candles, or begin preparations for Saturday night’s meal, until 8:27 pm on Saturday evening. After 8:27 pm, one may begin preparations after reciting Maariv or, at the very least, the phrase, “Baruch haMavdil Bein Kodesh leKodesh (Blessed is the One who distinguishes between one type of sanctity and another).”
- Chametz that was sold to a non-Jew will be repurchased on Sunday evening after Pesach ends.
- Chametz that was owned by a Jew during Pesach may not be purchased even after Pesach is over. As soon as the information becomes available, we will publish a list of stores where it is permissible to purchase Chametz after Pesach (i.e. either owned by non-Jews, or by Jews who executed a proper sale of Chametz. Please note that this is a complex subject, because it requires knowledge not only of the ownership of the store but also the identity of the distributors).
- Birches Ha’ilanos - the Blessing on Fruit Trees - is recited this time of year:

- Counting the Omer:
- The Omer is counted each night after nightfall. We recite the blessing while standing, and then count the day, mentioning both the number of days and the number of weeks.
- If one missed a day, one should continue to count the rest of the days of the Omer, but without reciting the blessing.
- If one did not count the Omer at night, but remembered to do so during the daytime, one should count that day without reciting the blessing, but may then resume counting the remaining days of the Omer with the blessing.
- If one is unsure whether one skipped a day, it is often permissible to continue counting with a blessing. A rabbi should be consulted.
