We know that Moshe Rabbeinu was born on the 7th of Adar and died on the 7
th of Adar. There seems to be a problem. If you say that someone lived a 
full year it would mean that someone born on the 7th of Adar would die on 
the 6th of Adar. The full year is complete at a moment that the year is 
up. When a boy is Bar Mitzvah if he was born on the 7th of Adar he is Bar 
Mitzvah at sunset of the 6th of Adar. The year is completed a day early. 
It does not seem correct that Moshe Rabbeinu should be born on the 7th of 
Adar and die on the 7th of Adar and we should say such an expression (היום 
מלאו ימי ושנותי). Tzorech Iyun.
