<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;" align="left"><span style="color: black; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">The poskim write about learning the halachos of Pesach, Shavuos and Sukkos before these Festivals, with the Shulchan Aruch Harav ruling that 30 days applies to all these three Festivals. (Orach Chaim 429:1-3) But what about Rosh Hashanah? In fact for Rosh Hashanah one does more than theoretically learn the dinim. For (almost) the entire month of Elul, the baal tokea blows the shofar every morning with the tekiah, shevarim and terua. This should be an inducement for him to learn (or revise) the various dinim concerning the mitzvah of shofar, in particular the many dinim concerning the blowing of the different notes for the shofar, including such details such as the length of each note and at which stages to take a new breath.</span></span></span></p>
