Shabbat before Rosh Chodesh Nissan 🕍

Shabbat HaChodesh for Hebrew Year 4321 began on Friday, 3 April 0561 and ended on Saturday, 4 April 0561. This corresponds to Parashat Tazria.

Shabbat HaChodesh (“Sabbath [of the] month” שבת החודש) precedes the first of the Hebrew month of Nisan during which Passover is celebrated. Exodus 12:1-20 and the laws of Passover. On the first day of Nisan, G-d presented the first commandment of how to “sanctify the new moon” (kiddush hachodesh) for the onset of Rosh Chodesh and thus Nisan becomes the first month of the Jewish year (counting by months.).
