Pesach Sheni: Divine Second Chances Shrink the Rabbi
-
- Judendom
Each year, a month after Passover, the Hebrew calendar marks Pesach Sheni or Second Passover. It is the day when someone who was unable to participate in the Passover offering at the proper time, because they were impure or were distant, would observe the mitzvah exactly one month later. This is the Divine chance for a “re-do”— a God-given second chance. It’s the only time this happens in all of Torah. Listen as Rabbi Chaim and Dr B discuss the significance of this unique holiday.
