  • Question

I was born on 5th April 1934 and BarMitzvah I think on 19th April 1947.
I have recently had brain surgery and cannot remember the name of the Sedra on that date, please help.

  • Answer
Shalom and thank you for your question!
Hope you are doing well after the surgery!

Your Hebrew birthday, 5/05/1934, occured on the 20th of the month of Nisan, 5694,on the Hebrew calendar. It was during Passover, so the Torah reading was the one for the last day of Passover. Deuteronomy, 14:22 – 16:17, (Dvarim), concerning the commandment of tithing.

Your Bar Mitzvah, 19th April 1947, occured on the Hebrew date of the 29th of Nisan, 5707.

The Torah reading then was the Torah portion of Shemini, in the book of Leviticus. (Vayikra).

Wishing you many more celebrations in good health!
