Step one—Step Two
The gemora in Megilla tells us that in a leap year we celebrate Purim in the Adar which is closer to Pesach in order that one geula should be next to the other. Obviously, this isn’t just to bunch them together for convenience. There are many references throughout Chazal connecting Purim to Pesach. Let’s explore [...]
