This morning we discuss Eruv Tavshilin, the mechanism we create this Wednesday, that allows us, this Friday, to do certain preparations for this Shabbat, that would ordinarily not be permitted due to the prohibition against using one holy day to prepare for another, instead of appreciating it for its own sake. We quote an explanation for this from Rabbi Saul Berman. And we explain the details of how this is done, this coming Wednesday. Note: during this video, I think I made the mistake of referring to Wednesday as the first day of Pesach. Of course Pesach this year, 5783, is Thursday and Friday.

Michael Whitman is the senior rabbi of ADATH Congregation in Hampstead, Quebec, and an adjunct professor at McGill University Faculty of Law. ADATH is a modern orthodox synagogue community in suburban Montreal, providing Judaism for the next generation. We take great pleasure in welcoming everyone with a warm smile, while sharing inspiration through prayer, study, and friendship.
