By The Light of the Sliver-y Moon!
  You Just Gotta Believe!Sea For Yourself  
This week's Torah Portion, Bo, contains the first mitzvah that G-d gave the Jewish people: the commandment to formally proclaim the New Moon. This marks the beginning of a new month.

  • The Jewish people are compared to the moon. The moon becomes dim and grows bright again. So do the Jewish people.

  • The first day of every month is called Rosh Chodesh. It's a special holiday just for women.
