Mitzvas Kiddush Hachodesh: PowerPoint Presentation - Yiddish

This slideshow is designed to help students understand all that is complicated about Kiddush Hachodesh! It explains what the moon is, how it seems to change in size, Malei & Choser months, Kiddush Hachodesh in the times of Sanhedrin versus nowadays, and finally, what takes place during a solar and lunar eclipse. Each topic discussed includes graphic illustrations including diagrams and 3D animation of the moon’s orbit. The slideshow is primarily in Yiddish but diagrams and animations taken from other sources are in English.
