Description

In the past 30 years, this “minor holiday” in Judaism, the 33rd day of counting the Omer, has taken on greater significance, and is the place of the largest gathering of Jews in the world every year in on this day (Meron in Israel). This podcast will discuss this mystical day, its deeper concepts relevant today, though ancient sources, and help explain why this unique day has changed from a minor celebration to a day of great significance.
