Halocho #817 - Special days coming up: Yom Hameyuchas

On the 2nd day of Sivan in they year 2449 - a few days before Matan Torah - Hashem informed us that we're a Chosen Nation:

 וִהְיִיתֶם לִי סְגֻלָּה מִכָּל-הָעַמִּים, כִּי-לִי כָּל-הָאָרֶץ
(Shmos 19:5)

 As a result, 2 Sivan is often referred to as the Pedigree-Day; Yom-Hameyuchas.


No Tachanun is said during the first part of Sivan; until Isru-Chag Shavu'ot (or a week later - depending on local custom).

Rosh Chodesh Sivan will be tomorrow (Thursday night and Friday). Shabbat will be Yom Hameyuchas.

Chodesh Tov Shabbat Shalom
