An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Second Purim (Hebrew: פורים שני, romanized: Purim Sheni), also called Purim Katan (Hebrew: פורים קטן, lit. 'Minor Purim'), is a celebratory day uniquely observed by a Jewish community or individual family to commemorate the anniversary of its deliverance from destruction, catastrophe, or an antisemitic ruler or threat. Similar to the observance of the Jewish holiday of Purim, Second Purims were typically commemorated with the reading of a megillah (scroll) describing the events that led to the salvation, specially-composed prayers, a festive meal, and the giving of charity. In some cases, a fast day was held the day before. Second Purims were established by hundreds of communities in the Jewish diaspora and in the Land of Israel under foreign rule. Most Second Purims are no longer observed

dbo:abstract
  • Les Pourim sheniim (hébreu : פוריים שניים « seconds Pourim »), parfois appelés « Pourim spéciaux » ou « petits Pourim », sont des jours de joie localement institués par des communautés ou des individus pour célébrer leur échappée belle de diverses catastrophes (pogroms, incendies, expulsions, conversions forcées etc.). Comparables à moindre échelle au miracle national que célèbre la fête de Pourim, ils en reproduisent parfois les rites avec des jeûnes comparables à celui d’Esther, des meguillot spécialement rédigées pour relater le miracle et des prières spéciales ajoutées lors des services synagogaux. Un grand nombre de Pourim sheniim a été institué au cours de l’histoire mais seuls quelques-uns sont encore observés de nos jours. (fr)

Most Second Purims are no longer observed. A Second Purim did not replace the regular Purim observed on 14 Adar (or 15 Adar, in Jerusalem and a few other cities), which all Jews are required by rabbinic law to observe. (en)
