This past Tuesday was Yud Alef Cheshvan, the Yom Hilulah (day of passing) of Rochel Imeinu. She promised the Jewish people, her children, when they were leaving Israel during the Babylonian exile that they would one day return. She said, "Veshavu Banim LeGevulam" (my children will return to their land).
In her honour we made a 3D artwork of her Kever (tomb) which is in Bait Lechem, just outside Yerushalayim.
Also, we learned that to remember which day is her Hilulah, remember that the word Aim (mother) has the numerical value of 41 and 11 Cheshvan is 41 days after Rosh Hashanah.
