Parsha:

Emor 

Description

In the first half of the parsha we looked at what it means to have an elite group in Am Yisrael. What responsibilities do they have to themselves and to the nation? What responsibilities does the nation have towards them? In the second half we look at the idea of the Moadim v Shabbos - what is the difference between Shabbos and holidays in terms of how God views each? We concluded with a thought from the Or HaChaim on Sefirah, as we are in the middle of Sefirat HaOmer.
