One Halakhah Closer to Becoming an Eshet Hayil

BS''D

4 Adar 5773

2. Berakhot:  Three blessings are recited on the Megillah prior to the evening reading:  

a) `Al Mikra Megillah (for the reading itself)  

b)  She`asah Nissim La'Avoteinu (mentioning the miracles HaShem performed for our fathers) 

c) Shehehiyanu (expressing gratitude that HaShem has kept us alive to participate in this occasion). One blessing is recited at the conclusion of the reading, Harav et Rivenu (acknowledging that it was HaShem who fought our battles). 

The same Berakhot are recited for the daytime reading except for  Shehehiyanu. If one omitted Shehehiyanu in the evening it should be recited in the day.
