One ROSH HODESH HESHVAN Closer to Becoming an Eshet Hayil

BS''D
Today is ROSH HODESH HESHVAN!
Remember to say Yaaleh veYavo in the Amidah and Birkat HaMazon J

Considering that Hodesh Heshvan has no hagim of its own, it wasn't so easy to think of a Devar Torah to write defining it. I realized though that this is what makes Hodesh Heshvan so special--that it is the only month that has no holiday of it own. That is why they call it 'Mar Heshvan'--'Bitter Heshvan'. The fact that this month is void of any hagim means that it becomes a vessel to transfer the Kedushah and Simhah of the hagim of Tishrei (Rosh HaShanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Shemini Asseret Simhat Torah....) into the rest of the year. When we are able to do this, we turn 'Mar' (Bitter) into 'Ram' (High, Elevate). Let us fill this Hodesh up with our own Semahot!! BH May this be a Hodesh of tremendous Berakhah, Simhah, Yeshuah and Hasslahah Rabbah for all of Kelal Yisrael!!

Just to make your Rosh Hodesh even better....
**BH Rav Lazer Brody will be coming to Torah Ohr in Great Neck on November 4th. Kindly see attached the flyer for details. BH please save the date, this is going to be a phenomenal event!

Hodesh Heshvan Tov uMevorakh!!!!
