The Triple Purim

In a rare occurrence, Purim this year will be on Friday taking us straight from the festival of Purim into Shabbat. This creates some unusual customs in balancing Purim with the onset of Shabbat.In Jerusalem where Purim is observed a day later (Shushan Purim), Purim will be Shabbat. However, the Megillah cannot be read on Shabbat and therefore must be read on Friday while other laws of Purim are pushed to Sunday, creating a triple Purim.A fascinating discussion about the unique rules and customs this year when Purim is on a Friday.
