So When Is the Yahrtzeit


When is די מאמע רחל'ס Yahrzeit?


1) According to the פסיקתא רבתי, the מאמע רחל died 
between Pesach & Shavuos when the ground was dry
(see Rashi Breishis 48:7 who agrees with the Pesikta)

2) The ילקוט שמעוני writes, she died on the 11th of Cheshvan.

3) In one of the dead sea scrolls,* it is written that she died
on the 10th of Teves.


*Sefarim Chitzonim, not necessarily  Chazal
