When Did She Die

 


       

I

Q: Is the Mamme רחל's Yahrzeit on the 11th of מרחשון*?

   
A:   Not according to the פסיקתא רבתי, or רש"י.


The  Pesikta writes רחל died between Pesach & Shavuos (summer) when the ground is dry.

Rashi 
Breishis 48:7 agrees with the Pesikta.
Rashi writes רחל died in the dry season (summer)


ילקוט שמעוני*
