Rosh Chodesh and Chanukah

Hi,

This coming Sunday will be the second day of Rosh Chodesh for the lunar month of Tevet, and it will also be Chanukah. What will we read from the Torah?

To satisfy the needs of both Rosh Chodesh and Chanukah, we will first take care of the more common holiday, Rosh Chodesh, by reading 3 portions from the Rosh Chodesh reading. We will then read a fourth reading for Chanukah, from a second Torah.

(Code of Jewish Law Orach Chaim 684:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
