Vacation / Interregnum / Recess

Vacation / Interregnum / Recess

The periods between one study term and another, which serve as vacation for yeshiva students (the yeshiva academic year is divided into three 'Zmanim': Elul Zman – from Rosh Chodesh Elul to Yom Kippur, Winter Zman – from Rosh Chodesh Cheshvan to Rosh Chodesh Nisan, Summer Zman – from Rosh Chodesh Iyar to Tisha B’Av).

("And there is no distinction between the Zmanim, for it is written: all the days" – Malbim, Numbers 6)
