Question
Hello Rabbi, In the collection of laws for Passover regarding candle lighting, it states: "11. It is a mitzvah to light candles on Yom Tov. [103] Some have the custom to light them on the eve of Yom Tov, and some have the custom to light them close to the holiday meal, and those who do not have a custom should light on the eve of Yom Tov. [104]" This refers to a regular year and not like this year, 5785, when it falls on Shabbat, correct? Thank you very much and blessings.
Answer
Hello,
Of course, it does not refer to this year.
[Apologies for the delay in response, which was due to the high volume of questions before the holiday].
