Hi! I'm back for a limited time. See you this evening iyh!!!

Can you connect the word aish- fire to the following parshios:
Shmos--- the sneh
Va'era---- tzfardeia in tanurim???
Bo---- barad fire and ice
Beshalach---- amud aish?

Also:
Bereishis (be creative here) fire created motzei shabbos, havdalah...
Noach (medresh)--- kivshan ha aish

Hi! Welcome back! (I will be MIA tonight but you ladies can go on without me..)

I thought of almost all of the same as you except that Barad is in Va'era not Bo.

So I had Barad for Ve'era.
For Bo I had the Korban pesach which had to be roasted over a tzli aish (I think?)
For Bereishis I had the word "Shomayim" which is a contraction of Aish and mayim. But yours is better. (More direct)

I assume that you mean "of the list of 7 mitzvos d'rabanan"? (Though I'm not sure what Rosh Chodesh adds here above any Shabbos Chanukah that gives us ner Shabbos, ner Chanukah, Hallel, eiruv, plus brachos and netilas yadaim .)

If you're counting anything that's d'rabanan b'zman hazeh, then the first night of Pesach that falls out on Shabbos probably wins with marror, arba kosos, possibly Hallel at the Seder depending on whose shittos you follow. Plus hadlakas neiros and kiddush of Yom Tov. (The only thing lost would be ner Chanukah.)

Second night Pesach in chul would give us even more, since all of the mitzvos are d'rabanan (plus sefiras ha'omer according to the shittos that it's d'rabanan today), but it can't fall out on Shabbos, so it probably would require some precise counting of exactly what counts a as a mitzvah d'rabanan.

It's not something you would know for any reason. It just stuck in my head because of the repeating words.

How many Jewish names can you think of that are directly related to a specific time/period in the Jewish year. Has to be directly mentioned in the Torah/Poskim. For example if Sukkos was a name that would be acceptable but not Hadassah.
I can think of 6 or 7 and if I add a clause another 3.

Do you mean that the names have to be directly mentioned in the Torah? Or the time period?

Not sure I'm understanding the question correctly but;
1. Pesach
2. Nisan
3. Sivan
4. Ora (leyehudim Haysa ora)
Are these ok?
