Shabbat of Remembrance 🕍

Shabbat Zachor for Hebrew Year 5328 began on Friday, 22 March 1568 and ended on Saturday, 23 March 1568. This corresponds to Parashat Tzav.

Shabbat Zachor (“Sabbath [of] remembrance שבת זכור) is the Shabbat immediately preceding Purim. Deuteronomy 25:17-19, describing the attack by Amalek, is recounted. There is a tradition from the Talmud that Haman, the antagonist of the Purim story, was descended from Amalek. The portion that is read includes a commandment to remember the attack by Amalek, and therefore at this public reading both men and women make a special effort to hear the reading.
