Why isn't Chonon Barac's Yahrzeit Exact?

We do not know the exact date of death of Chonon Barac. According to Jewish tradition, if the exact date of death is not known, the yahrzeit of a person can be observed on any day, as long as it is that same day every year. Since that is the case, we observe the yahrzeit of Chonon Barac on 23 Heshvan. If you know the exact date of death of Chonon Barac, contact us via the contact page.
