- Q. For those who have the tradition to do a Lag Baomer celebration and dance around the fire with music and divrei Torah. (A siyum as I advised them is also usually done), since this year (2025) that Lag Baomer is on Friday and that can only be done on Thursday evening, can they start already earlier after Shekia, (sunset) since we are up north and night fall is late and we also want children to attend?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that different groups should follow the traditions of their families, however it stands to reason that they should at least wait until the Shekia and begin with the Siyum.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Yaakov Hirschman , Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller, Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu and Horav Kalman Ochs Shlit”a
