Outside of Israel we keep a second day of Yom Tov. Even though originally it was established it was because we weren’t sure about the dates, and nowadays we have an established calendar, the obligation still exists. This is because the rabbis decided that maybe at some point in history one of the governments ruling over us outside of Israel can decree that we can’t learn torah, and we would get confused with how to set when Rosh Chodesh is, and mistakenly eat chametz on Pesach. [1]

General Laws

  1. Generally, anything that is prohibited on the first day, is also forbidden on Yom Tov Sheni, whether it is something that is forbidden from the Torah or rabbinically.[2]
    1. The exception is for a sick person who is not in danger of dying. On the first day you can only get healed by a non-Jew but on the second day a Jew can do himself as long as its only violating a rabbinic prohibition but something that is forbidden from the Torah is forbidden even on the second day. [3]
    2. One other case that is different is with regards to burying a dead body which on Yom Tov rishon would only be done by a non-Jew but on the second day it would be allowed for a Jew to perform himself. [4]
  2. However, the two days of Rosh Hashana are considered one long day of Yom Tov and therefore there is not even that difference. [5]
  3. It is forbidden to ask a non-Jew to perform forbidden labor for you even on Yom Tov Sheni.[6]
  4. We do not wear tefillin on Yom Tov Sheni even though wearing tefillin each day is a mitzva diorayta.[7]
  5. We recite all berachot such as Kiddush, on Yom Tov Sheni just as we do on the first day.[8]

Preparing on the First Day for the Second

  1. It is forbidden to prepare for the second day during the first day of Yom Tov[9], even if the preparation doesn't include any melacha [10]. Therefore, one should not wash dishes or roll the sefer torah to the proper place, or bring a siddur to use in shul, or prepare the candles to light later, or set up the chairs and tables for use on the second day.[11]
  2. Included in this prohibition is saying that any action you do is in preparation for the next day.[12]
  3. One should only prepare the food for the second day once it is certainly nighttime of the second day.[13]
  4. One can cook extra food on the first day of Yom Tov once he is cooking anyway for the first day, as long as there is no added exertion for the second day. Therefore, one can fill the pot with food for both days and cook.[14] However, once the pot is on the fire, one cannot take it off and add food just for the second day.[15] If it is fish and meat, one would be permitted to add food for the second day even when the pot is already on the fire.[16]

Lighting Candles

  1. Lighting on the second day of Yom Tov generally is an issue since the electric lights are already on, see Lighting_Candles_for_Yom_Tov#Second_Day_Yom_Tov for discussion.

Early Yom Tov Sheni

  1. Some say that if one is going to say Kiddush for the second day of Yom Tov early before nightfall, one is permitted and should light the candles before Kiddush so that one can see the candles during Kiddush.[17]

Preparing

  1. Even those who allow starting early, it is indeed a problem to prepare from that day to the night. Therefore, you can cook during the day if you are going to have the meal during the daytime hours of the first day so that you eat and enjoy what you prepared that same day.[18]

Second Day is Sunday

  1. Some say that if Yom Tov is on Motzei Shabbat one may not accept Yom Tov Sheni early.[19]

Second Day is Shabbat

  1. Whether you can make early Yom Tov Sheni in general depends on a minhag if we follow the Maharil (Tefilot Pesach n. 6) or not. The Maharil was worried that when you start the second yom tov early you're going to violate preparing from one day of Yom Tov to the next.[20]
  2. If second day is Shabbat certainly it is permitted to start Shabbat and Yom Tov Sheni early since there's no concern of preparing from Yom Tov to Shabbat once a person made an Eruv Tavshilin. In fact it is proper to do so that a person won't come to cook so close to Shabbat and have food that isn't edible when Shabbat begins which is a problem.[21]

Rosh Hashana

  1. You shouldn't accept the second day of Rosh Hashana early.[22]

Shavuot

  1. Starting the second day of Yom Tov of Shavuot early is another dispute whether for Sefirat Haomer or Shavuot specific reasons one shouldn't start early. Many poskim are lenient.[23]

Eating the Meal before Saying Shema at Night

  1. In general many poskim allow you to accept Shabbat early and then eat before 30 minutes before the time for Shema and then pray Arvit afterwards. However, some disagree with this approach.[24]
  2. It is best to start the meal before 30 minutes before time for Shema. If it is within 30 minutes there's what to rely upon to start then if you already said Shema after Plag Mincha.[25]
  3. You can accept Shabbat early and pray Shemona Esrei of Maariv without Brachot Kriyat Shema and Shema and then say those after Tzet Hakochavim.[26]

Having the Meal Early

  1. Ideally a person should leave over bread at the end of the meal and eat it then more than kebaytza.[27]

Accepting Shabbat or Yom Tov

  1. Tosefet Shabbat or Yom Tov isn't a neder, rather it is a mitzvah of infusing it with kedusha, and so it doesn't need to be orally accepted it is enough to mentally accept it.[28]

Lighting Candles Early

  1. One can start Yom Tov Sheni early and light candles then with a bracha.[29]

Halachot of a Jew from Diaspora in Israel

  1. However, it is permissible for non-Israelis to make a minyan for Yom Tov sheni in Israel because that is already an established custom. [30]
  2. If someone from the diaspora is in Israel for Yom Tov Sheni he shouldn't be the Shaliach Tzibur for them for a weekday tefillah.[31]
  3. If someone from the Diaspora is in Israel for Yom Tov Sheni and he wants to do a milah, if there is no available Israeli mohel he may do the milah. But if it is possible to get an Israeli mohel one should do so and not do the milah. Ashkenazim have what to rely upon to be lenient to do the milah even if there's an Israeli mohel available.[32]
  4. Someone who is keeping one day in Israel may not fly back to the diaspora on the second day.[33]

Who Should Keep Two Days in Israel

  1. A non-Israeli who is in Israel for Yom Tov should keep two days of Yom Tov. [34]
  2. If someone owns an apartment in Israel many poskim hold that one should nonetheless keep two days. Some however hold that one should keep one day.[35]
  3. Someone who is making Aliyah to Israel on condition that everything works out and hasn't yet decided to stay according to some poskim should keep only one day, while according to many others should still keep two days. [36]
  4. A Sephardic unmarried Yeshiva student should observe only one day of Yom Tov because he doesn’t have an established in either place and we therefore hope that he will find a good wife and job and be able to remain in Israel. [37]
  5. According to some poskim, if one generally visits Israel for all Shalosh regalim, he only keeps one day of Yom Tov. [38]

"One and a Half Days"

  1. There is a third possibility sometimes referred to as one and a half days. This doesn't mean to refrain from doing melacha for half of the day but rather to keep the stringencies of those keeping one day and those keeping two. This means not doing any melacha on the second day of Yom Tov, but wearing tefillin with a beracha. (Second day of shavuot, eight day of pesach, and ninth day of sukkot, or for those who wear tefillin on chol hamoed also second days of pesach and sukkot) [39]

Halachot of an Israeli Outside of Israel

Forbidden Activities

  1. An Israeli who leaves Israel and plans on returning, is forbidden from doing melacha on the second day of Yom Tov.[40]
  2. Some say that this is only melacha in public,[41] while most say that this includes even doing melacha in private.[42]
  3. There is what to rely on for an Isreali who is outside Israel on the second day of Yom Tov in private to carry muktzeh on Yom Tov, light a match, or turn on a light. [43]
  4. If the first day of Yom Tov falls out on Shabbat an Israeli may light a candle for Havdalah. [44]
  5. If Yom tov sheni falls out on a Friday he doesn’t have to do an Eruv Tavshilin because when people see him cooking on Friday for Shabbat they don’t know whether or not he did an Eruv Tavshilin. [45]
  6. If he owns a factory outside of Israel that is run by non-jews he is allowed to let them work on the second day since it is technically a weekday for him. [46]

Prayers

  1. With regards to prayers, if it’s the second day of Shavuot, or the eighth day of pesach, or 9th of succot he should put tefillin on at home, say Kriat Shema, and then go to shul to pray with them. He should pray the weekday prayer or if it’s the second day of pesach or succot then chol hamoed because nobody can tell which shmoneh esrei he’s saying. [47]
  2. When they say hallel he should say it along with them without a beracha and by skipping the paragraphs one does on Rosh Chodesh, and when they say Mussaf, if its chol hamoed for him he says Mussaf but say “et yom mikra kodesh” instead of “et Yom Tov mikra kodesh”, and if it’s a regular weekday he should just say a few chapters of tehillim and pretend to say the shmoneh esrei. [48]
  3. It is forbidden for Israelis outside of Israel to organize a minyan for weekday, however, if the second day of Yom Tov is Shabbat it’s permissible for Israelis to form a minyan but the Shaliach Tzibbur shouldn’t raise his voice so that it’s heard outside. [49]
  4. If an Israeli is outside Israel for the second day of Yom Tov he can't say Kiddush for someone who is observing two days of Yom Tov. [50]
  5. If an Israeli is outside Israel for the second day of Yom Tov he can't be the Shaliach Tzibur for a them on the second day of Yom Tov.[51]
  6. If an Israeli is outside Israel for the second day of Yom Tov he should not receive an Aliyah. If he is the only Kohen in the minyan, a Levi or Yisrael should be called up in his place and it's preferable for the Kohen to leave the shul. If he's not the only Kohen, then a different Kohen should be called up. [52]Some say that after the fact if he was called up he should take the Aliyah.[53]

Seder on Pesach

  1. An Israeli who is outside of Israel for Pesach must participate fully in a second seder, even if he is around people who know he is Israeli.[54]


Asking an Israeli do Melacha on Yom Tov Sheni

  1. A non-Israeli who is in Israel has what to rely on ask an Israeli to do melacha for him on Yom Tov Sheni. [55]

Burials on Yom Tov Sheni

  1. Practically funerals shouldn’t be performed on Yom Tov, on the first day or even Yom Tov sheni.[56]

The rabbis are authorized to tell us to refrain from fulfilling the mitzva in a passive manner. The Rashba adds that if you do wear tefillin on this day you are in violation of a Torah prohibition

  17. Rav Pealim 4:23 and Ben Ish Chai (Bamidbar #2) writes that since one should see the candles while saying Kiddush, and some even say that this is absolutely necessary, lighting the candles is an immediate need and not an issue of preparing from one day of Yom Tov for the next. He goes on to explain that the dispute between the Prisha's mother and Eliyah Rabba only applies if one is lighting before nightfall and making Kiddush after nightfall. Rav Shlomo Zalman in Minchat Shlomo 1:3 mentions that some say you can take upon yourself early Yom Tov Sheni and it isn't considered a degradation of the first day of Yom Tov. However, Rivevot Efraim 6:270 advises against early yom tov sheni. Yom Tov Sheni Kehilchato p. 37 writes that one should only do so in a case of extenuating circumstances and cites Rav Elyashiv who agrees. His reasons are so that people don't come to prepare on the first day for the second and so as not to degrade the kedusha of the first day.

  21. Rav Schachter (Piskei Corona #37). The problem with cooking on Yom Tov for Shabbat if the food isn't yet edible when Shabbat begins is that the Eruv Tavshilin doesn't allow cooking from Yom Tov to Shabbat unless the food could have been eaten on Yom Tov (Pesachim 46b, Magen Avraham 527:1).
  22. Rav Schachter (Piskei Corona #37). Rav Schachter explained that we're only lenient to start early and pray at the wrong time because of tosefet shabbat or yom tov. Generally, a person can make tosefet shabbat to start early on Friday afternoon. Alternatively, if Yom Tov is on Friday one can start Shabbat early since one is adding onto Shabbat. Alternatively, one can start Yom Tov Sheni early since if the second day is the real day then one is adding onto it. However, since the establishment of Rosh Hashana is such that it is treated as two days of kedusha one shouldn't start early since one isn't adding anything. Similarly, Shabbat followed by Yom Tov Sheni on Sunday shouldn't be started early since one isn't adding any more kedusha to the next day by starting early.
  23. Rav Schachter (Piskei Corona #37). He quotes the Knesset Hagedola who writes that one shouldn't start the second night of Shavuot early. Pri Megadim disagrees since the reason to start the first night early is temimot to complete the days of the Omer and that doesn't apply to the second night of Shavuot. However, Rav Schachter explained that according to the Netsiv that there's a need to make kiddush of Shavuot on the date of Shavuot itself and accordingly it is important not to start early even on the second day. His conclusion is that we're not strict for the Knesset Hagedola since the whole concept here is a minhag.
  24. Rav Schachter (Piskei Corona #37). Rav Schachter quotes Rav Soloveitchik who felt based on Rambam that we shouldn't do that. He explained that the schedule of Shabbat and Yom Tov should always alternate between an activity focused on Hashem such as davening and an activity that is focused on the pleasures of the day such as eating. However, the order is important and should be kept in order.

  30. Sh"t Avkat Rochel 26, Yom Tov Kihilchato (page 67)
  31. Ginat Veradim OC 1:13 writes that an Israeli can recite the Yom Tov tefillah for a congregation of those from the Diaspora even though he isn't observing a second day of Yom Tov based on the concept of Yatzah Motzei. He explains that we hold like Rashi that someone obligated in megillah one day can exempt someone who is obligated on another day. He compares it to the Tur 566:4 where the Tur holds that someone who isn't fasting can exempt the congregation who is fasting in Anenu.
    • Birkei Yosef 124:3 points out that it is very questionable to hold like Rashi regarding Megillah since it is disputed by the Yerushalmi and Tosfot. Also, the Tur would agree that this case is different since on a Tanit it isn't a lie to say it is a fast day even if you're not fasting but if you're observing Yom Tov how can you say today is a Yom Tov. Zera Avraham 1:12 disagrees also because we don't follow the Tur and Rashi is local to the institution of megillah in multiple locations but not relevant generally. Birkei Yosef sides with the Zera Avraham mostly but in this case he says that the Jew from Diaspora can pray for the Israeli congregation since he is also obligated in the weekday besides the Yom Tov ones.
  32. The Nichpeh Bkesef OC 5 is strict since milah on Shabbat is only dechuya (Shabbat 130a) and it is possible to get another mohel for whom it isn't a melacha (Yoma 6b). Even if it is hutrah still if it is easy we would try to use the better alternatives. Chida in Machzik Bracha O.C. 331:6, Rav Chaim Palagi in Artzot Hachaim 10:22, Ikrei Hadaat O.C. 22:4, and Yalkut Yosef 331:17 concur. Mateh Yehuda v. 2 p. 41 cited by Shaarei Teshuva 496:5 argues that it is permitted since not doing the milah would be a publicly noticeable activity in abrogation of the local custom (see Rosh Pesachim 4:4 and Pri Megadim E"A 468:11). Leviyat Chen n. 98 argues that with respect to Yom Tov Sheni we aren't concerned for a public demonstration of Yom Tov Sheni in Israel (Avkat Rochel 26). Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach (Yom Tov Sheni Khilchato 12:1 p. 261) was lenient because in his opinion Milah is hutrah on Shabbat (Gra YD 266:25). Beer Moshe (v. 7 p. 331 Dinei Ben Eretz Yisrael Vchul YD 266) agreed. See a discussion of the whole topic in an article Rabbi Sultan (YUTorah).

  35. Rabbi Eliezer Melamed writes that as long as there is some factor to question whether the person is going to permanently make aliyah and decide to live in Israel one should keep only one day. One example he gives is if a person owns a house in Israel one should only keep one day.
  36. Rav Elyashiv (quoted by Yom Tov Sheni KeHilchato pg 81) holds that one should keep one day, while Rav Moshe Feinstein (quoted by Yom Tov Sheni KeHilchata) and Chazon Ovadyah (Yom Tov pg 130) hold that one should keep two days (this is summarized on http://www.dailyhalacha.com/Display.asp?ClipID=2118)

    • Additionally, the Ran 3a s.v. yom tov sheni holds that it may be buried on the second day of Yom Tov by Jews even if it could be buried by non-Jews. He writes that the Ramban agrees with his opinion and the Shiltot disagrees.
    • The Ran 3b s.v. vediamrinan writes that on the first day of Yom Tov only non-Jews should deal with the corpse and Jews shouldn’t even be involved in carrying the corpse even though it could have been justified by hilchot yom tov. The Rosh (Beitzah 1:5), however, argues that based on mitoch the Jews may carry the corpse.
    • The Rabbenu Tam (Tosfot Beitzah 6a s.v. veha’idna) held that it is forbidden to have Jews do a funeral on Yom Tov sheni since the conclusion of the gemara was that it shouldn’t be done because of a concern of a certain evil nation. Tosfot argues that nowadays that reason doesn’t apply and as such the prohibition doesn’t apply either. Rosh (Beitzah 1:5) agrees with Tosfot.
    • Shulchan Aruch 526:1 rules that it is permitted to do a funeral on the first day of Yom Tov by non-Jews even if the corpse won’t rot. Biur Halacha s.v. veafilu argues that not only is it permitted to do the funeral but it is obligatory since in general it is forbidden to delay a funeral. It is based on the Shulchan Aruch 526:2 who says that it is forbidden to delay a funeral from the first day of Yom Tov to the second day because it is delaying a funeral.
    • Chelkat Yakov 192 shows from numerous sources that it is permitted to delay the funeral to avoid chilul yom tov sheni, such as if people will drive to the funeral. One proof is that it is beneficial to violate a small aveirah in order to save someone else from a greater sin and delaying a burial is more lenient in that if it is for his honor it is permitted and chilul yom tov sheni is more serious since the rabbis treated it like a biblical day of Yom Tov. Additionally it would for the honor of the dead person to delay the funeral so that there’s no desecration of Yom Tov. Finally, he says that it is an explicit gemara Shabbat 139a that it is permitted to delay a funeral on Yom Tov sheni to avoid a desecration of Yom Tov sheni.
    • Rav Moshe Feinstein (Igrot Moshe OC 3:76) agrees based on Tosfot b”k 81a s.v. omer that it is a honor to the dead person to delay the funeral to avoid desecration of Yom Tov sheni such as people driving or making calls to relatives to come to the funeral.
