Publisher Description: In this unique volume, the spiritual journey of the Omer, the period between the end of Passover and the Shavuot, has been re-imagined to make it both meaningful and accessible for the 21st century. The counting of the Omer begins with the escape from enslavement to the wandering path of freedom, leading to a mystical encounter with God, Sinai and Torah. Omer: A Counting provides a daily spiritual guide for a personal journey through the Omer toward meaningful and purposeful living. Beautiful and evocative readings for each day, matched with the daily Omer blessing, offer a transformative path from Passover to Shavuot. Also included is an informative historical introduction. |
