Shabbos Zachor for Sefardim

Leave a Comment

Many poskim state that it is important that every person (including women) hear the Maftir in one’s own nusach. For the Sephardic community in Cleveland, this can present a challenge since most synagogues lein in Ashkenazi nusach.

Therefore, the hashkama minyan at the Beachwood Kollel building (2203 South Green Road) will have a reading in Sephardi nusach. For those interested in attending, Shacharit begins at 8:00am, with the Torah reading beginning at about 9:00. Please join us for this important mitzvah!

The Whys and Wherefores of Zachor By Rabbi Yirmiyohu Kaganoff

(Rabbi Yirmiyohu Kaganoff – RabbiKaganoff.com)

Question #1: Homebound

“As a mother of several small children, it is not easy for me to go out on Shabbos to hear Parshas Zachor. Am I required to do so?”

Question #2: Outreaching in the Afternoon

“At the outreach program that I run, many of our students do not arrive for Shabbos until the afternoon. Should we have a second Parshas Zachor reading for them?”

Question #3: Reading without a Brochah

“Why is no brochah recited on Parshas Zachor at a women’s reading?”
