How do you make havdalah when Shavuot begins on Motzaei Shabbat?
Question
Is it permitted on Motzaei Shabbat, when Shavuot will begin, to bake in an oven that is set by a Shabbat clock? And how does one make havdalah on Motzaei Shabbat when Shavuot begins?
Thank you very much
Answer
Hello,
1. It is permitted to bake in an oven that turns on on Yom Tov by means of a Shabbat clock. However, one may not raise or lower the temperature.
2. Havdalah is recited within the Kiddush of Yom Tov. The order is as follows: the blessing over the wine, the Kiddush blessing of Yom Tov, the blessing over the candle (Who creates the lights of fire), the blessing of havdalah (Who separates between holy and holy), and the blessing of Shehecheyanu. And no blessing is recited over the spices (Shulchan Aruch, siman 473, section 1, and Mishnah Berurah, subparagraph 3).
With blessing,
Hillel Meirs
