Why is Purim Celebrated for Two Days in Hebron? | The Jewish Press - JewishPress.com | Ben Bresky | 13 Adar 5781 – February 25, 2021


Purim in Hebron. 2018.
Hebron has the unique distinction of being one of the few cities in the world that celebrates Purim on two days. Jewish communities in walled cities celebrate Purim a day later. This is deriving from the verses in the Scroll of Esther which state, that in the city of Shushan, where the Purim story took place, the holiday was celebrated on the 15th of Adar rather then the 14th like the rest of the Jewish world.
Such is the case with Jerusalem where walls still surround the Old City. However what if there is a doubt about whether or not a city was surrounded by a wall? Those cities, Hebron being one of them, celebrate for two days, and thus have four total readings of the megillah.

Hide and Seek


The pandemic hovers over us. It is a wakeup call for serious repentance, serious prayer, serious tzedakah
F
amous Jewish parable: Children playing hide-and-seek. One child in corner is weeping. Why are you crying? Because when I hide, no one comes looking for me.
Where will we have the Purim seudah this year? With or without corona masks? With or without family? These and many other concerns — Purim this year occurring on a Friday, necessitating the Purim seudah before the Shabbos seudah, intertwined with sending mishloach manos, hearing the Megillah, giving matanos l’evyonim, trying to fulfill ad delo yada properly, all while preparing for Shabbos — threaten to obscure the underlying message of Purim.
