What is Sefiras HaOmer?
An unexpected veil of mourning is cast during a period that should be celebrated. The reason? A tragic tale of Rabbi Akiva's students who perished in droves between Passover and Shavuot. Even today, Jewish people avoid getting married, taking haircuts, and listening to music during this season until Lag B'Omer, as per the well-established tradition in the "Shulchan Aruch." In this episode, discover the reason behind the tragedy and the lesson we must draw from this hellacious historical period.
