Sefiras HaOmer: Starting Low... and Reaching Great Heights
Description
In this episode we dive into the unique time of year of Sefiras HaOmer - the seven week period between Pesach and Shavuos! The Midrash tells us to make sure to take the Omer seriously, and that by keeping it, we will merit to inherit Eretz Yisrael. What is so special about the mitzvah of Sefirat HaOmer that the Midrash puts it on such a pedestal? And why does it assume we would not have given it proper attention in the first place? We are going to get into one of the deep lessons of Sefirah in this week's episode!
