Reb Shlomo and Cheshvan - Marheshwan
Cheshvan (Marheshwan) is the second month of the civil year and the eighth month of the ecclesiastical on the Hebrew calendar. In the Bible it is called Bul (I Kings 6:38). On 7 Cheshvan - V’tein Tal u-Matar (”Deliver Dew and Rain”), a prayer, is added to the Shemoneh Esrei prayers.
During Cheshvan we celebrate the celebrate the yahrtzeit (anniversary of the death) of two Rebbes who Reb Shlomo frequently quoted. On the 3rd of Cheshvan we remember Yisroel Friedman (1797-1850) (Der Heyliger Rizhiner), On the 11 Cheshvan we remember the memory of Reb Nachum of Chernobyl who was a disciple of Rabbi DovBer of Mezeritch, the founder of the Chernobyl dynasty of Chassidic Rebbes.
On the 27th of Cheshvan of the Hebrew year 1657 (2104 BCE) “the earth dried” (Genesis 8:14), which finished the 365-day duration of the Mabul, the great flood. Reb Shlomo taught us that on this day we should be like Noah and “Come out of the ark” by repopulating, settling and civilizing the planet that we all share.
