This rare calendar year, in which Erev Pesach fell out on Shabbos, brings with it another interesting occurrence: Yom Kippur falls on a Thursday. As a result, during Aseres Yemei Teshuvah, the Selichos that include the Yud-Gimel Middos of Rachamim are scheduled to be recited on Tuesday. Since Krias HaTorah takes place on Monday, there are various minhagim as Some communities switch the Selichos of Yom Revii with those of yom Chamishi in order to recite the Yud-Gimel Middos on Monday, which has Krias HaTorah and also recite י"ג מדות before laining.
However, in BMG this year, the Yud-Gimel Middos will be recited on Tuesday as scheduled, not on Monday even though Monday includes Krias HaTorah. In the past they did switch it but have changed since the year 5781.
More details on this topic can be found in this week’s Alei Zayis publication.
