Join us as we have a look at “the other side” of Shavout. No, it's not Pentecost. No, it's not the birth of the Roman Catholic Church. No, it's not the day when the “holy spirit” fell on all man-kind. No, it does not always fall on the first day of the week (Sunday). It is an ordained Feast unto Yahuah, it is the close of the Pesach, the counting of the Omer, the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Y'shua, it is very important to Yahuah that His people, understand the messages of the feast and how they tie everything during the past 52 days together. I used the verses out of the Book of Jubilees as found in the Cepher. Vayiqra (Leviticus) 23:15 Yovheliym (Jubilees) 1:1 Yovheliym 15:1 Yovheliym 16:13 Yovheliym 16:15-18 Yovheliym 22:1-6 Yovheliym 28:15 Yovheliym 44:4-10 Acts 2:1-4 Matthew 5:48 Acts 1:4-5 Devariym (Deuteronomy) 33:1-4 Acts 2:5-10 Acts 2:22-24 Acts 2:17-21

Mark Huey of Outreach Israel Ministries delivers the following devotional for Day Forty-Nine of the Omer Count.

In today's episode, we're talking about responding to the pain in our hearts and around the world when we turn on the news and see yet another horrific tragedy, like the recent shootings in Buffalo, New York and Uvalde, Texas. How do we keep our hearts open? How do we allow ourselves to lament, and meet our grief and rage, all while continuing to tend to the mundane tasks of our daily lives? How do we know whether we are doing enough to show up for the world in all its pain?  We bring the words and lessons of many teachers into today's episode to help guide us as we wrestle with these questions alongside you: teachers in the form of rabbis and civil rights activists, Buddhists and climate justice writers, mindful skaters and hospital chaplains. We are grateful for their guidance and contributions, and we are grateful for you.    References: Words from Martin Luther King Jr: “The arc of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice.” “I must confess, I am tired.”; Letter from a Birmingham Jail  Jewish wisdom: "You are not obligated to finish the work of perfecting the world, but neither are you free to desist from it."

The 49 days of counting the Omer reach their conclusion this Shabbat, and the Festival of Shavuot, called by Torah 'The Festival of the First Fruits,' begins at the conclusion of Shabbat. Shavuot is the anniversary of the Giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai, and we prepare to receive Torah anew, with great joy and anticipation! ___ Rabbi Chaim Richman Jerusalem Lights | Torah for Everyone Please support the work of Jerusalem Lights, a USA recognized 501 ( c ) 3 non-profit organization to enable these productions to continue and grow: Paypal: infojerusalemlights@gmail.com or: https://paypal.me/JerusalemLights?loc...

The fiftieth day of the Omer is observed as the holiday of Shabuot. The Halachic authorities address the question of whether or not there is a requirement to study the laws of Shabuot thirty days before the holiday, as we are required to do before Pesah. The Bah (Rav Yoel Sirkis, Poland, 1561-1640), in Siman 429, rules that this obligation applies to Shabuot, and one must begin studying the laws of the Yom Tob a month in advance. This is also the view of the Magen Abraham (Rav Abraham Gombiner, Poland, 1635-1682). Others, however, disagree, and claim that as there are relatively few Halachot that apply on Shabuot, it suffices to begin studying the relevant laws on Rosh Hodesh Sivan. This was the position of the Gaon of Vilna (1720-1797), in Siman 429, and this is the Halacha, and thus one should begin studying the Halachot of Shabuot from Rosh Hodesh Sivan.It is customary to immerse in a Mikveh on Ereb Shabuot. The Arizal (Rabbi Yishak Luria of Safed, 1534-1572) taught that one should immerse at least twice – once to remove the weekday "garments" from the soul, and a second time to receive the sanctity of the holiday.The question arises in situations such as this year (5772), when Shabuot begins on Mosa'eh Shabbat, whether one may take a nap on Shabbat afternoon, before the onset of Shabuot, to prepare to remain awake that night. There is a well-established prohibition against making preparations on Shabbat for the weekday, and it should thus perhaps be forbidden to take a nap on Shabbat afternoon specifically for the purpose of preparing to stay awake that night, the night of Shabuot. Indeed, some authorities ruled that one should not verbally state when he goes to lie down on Shabbat that he does so to prepare for Shabuot night. This was the view of the Sefer Ha'hasidim (266), cited by the Magen Abraham (290). However, Hacham Bension Abba Shaul (Israel, 1923-1998), in his Or Le'sion (vol. 3, p. 195), disagrees, and maintains that one may explicitly sleep in preparation for the Shabuot night learning, since this is preparation for the sake of a Misva. Nevertheless, it is preferable to satisfy all opinions and avoid explicitly stating that one sleeps in order to be able to remain awake to learn that night.Summary: It is proper to begin learning the laws of Shabuot from Rosh Hodesh Sivan, and it is customary to immerse in a Mikveh on Ereb Shabuot. When Shabuot begins on Mosa'eh Shabbat, one may take a nap on Shabbat afternoon in preparation for the all-night learning, but one should preferably avoid stating explicitly that he sleeps in preparation for the night.

I heard earlier today that one of my greatest Rabbis passed away. His name was Rabbi Eliyahu Margulies zt'l, and he was the first teacher I had that really opened my eyes to the deeper side of Torah. Many of the ideas that I share on this podcast and throughout all of my teaching are sourced in what I learned from this great man. In his honor and in his memory, I decided to share a beautiful and deep idea that I heard from him 10 years ago (to the week), when I was studying in the great Mir Yeshiva in Jerusalem. He left behind a wife and seven children and a fund was set up to assist them going forward. If you would like to participate in this great mitzvah, you can donate here: https://secure.cardknox.com/congregationramatshlomo In today's episode we discuss the two parts of the counting of the Omer: the first 32 days and the last 17. The great Maharal explains that the first 32 days correspond to the concept of Kavod, honor, which has a numerical value (gematria) of 32, while the last 17 days reflect tov, goodness, which has a value of 17. In this class Rabbi Margulies zt'l explained each of these concepts individually and then explained how it connected back to the counting of the Omer and the upcoming holiday of Shavuos. May the neshama of HaRav Eliyahu Menachem ben Rav Eliezer Tzadok zt'l have an aliyah. Happy Listening!

Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Chassidus Applied to BechukoseiDoes Torah provide us with a better and healthier life? What is the function of chukim (supra-rational) mitzvos, and what is its connection with engraving (chakikah)? Is Halacha (Jewish law) rigid and inflexible? How do you avoid being a “mechanical” Jew, preforming mitzvos robotically? Why are there curses in the Torah? Is Hashem breaking His promise to us every day Moshiach doesn't come? Is tithing just like paying taxes? How can we assure that our prayers get answered? Is there a secret prayer that is like a master key to open up the heavenly doors? What is the significance of the Ono B'Koach prayer and why do we say it when we count the Omer? What is the meaning of the few paragraphs we say after counting the Omer? Why do we say “L'Omer” and not “B'Omer”? Lag B'OmerWhat is the significance of Lag B'Omer being hod within hod? Why isn't the burial place of Rashbi unknown to us like that of Moshe's? Why do we light bonfires on this day? How should we address the deplorable behavior of some in Meron on Lag B'Omer? Did the Rebbe explain why putting on Tefillin can stop wars and terrorist attacks?

Kylie is trying to get a better understanding of this week's theme, Yesod, or foundation and connection. Dassi Zar, co-director of Chabad House Bowery's young professional's branch, Kehilas Atid, returns to the show as our guide to understanding each weekly attribute.   The Jewish tradition of counting the Omer, or Sefirat Haomer, marks the 49 days between the second night of Passover and the start of Shavuot. It is a time of introspection and an opportunity for spiritual challenge and growth.   In this 7-week series, Kylie Unell invites you on her daily journey to make meaning out of this age-old tradition. Each week of the Omer corresponds to a different attribute of God. On each episode, airing weekdays, Kylie explores these various attributes by talking, reading, doing, speaking, and reflecting.  49 Days to Stretch My Soul is a production of Tablet Studios. The show is hosted by Kylie Unell, and is produced and edited by Darone Ruskay, Josh Kross, Quinn Waller, Robert Scaramuccia and Sara Fredman Aeder. Our team includes Stephanie Butnick, Liel Leibovitz, Mark Oppenheimer, and Tanya Singer.  Please rate us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
