Shabbat Shekalim for Hebrew Year 4530 began on Friday, 6 March 0770 and ended on Saturday, 7 March 0770. This corresponds to Parashat Pekudei.

Shabbat Shekalim (“Sabbath [of] shekels” שבת שקלים) read in preparation for Purim, requests each adult male Jew contribute half of a Biblical shekel for the upkeep of the Tent of Meeting. The Torah portion Exodus 30:11-16 is read. This Shabbat takes place on the Shabbat before the 1st of the Hebrew calendar month of Adar, or on the 1st of Adar itself if it falls on Shabbat.
