The story

Between Passover and Shavuot the 49 days of the Omer are counted. Tradition teaches that during this time a plague struck the students of Rabbi Akiva, and that it stopped on the 33rd day. It is also the anniversary of the death of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, linked to the Zohar, who asked that his day be one of joy.

How it is observed

The customs of mourning of the Omer are lifted: weddings take place and many boys get their first haircut (upsherin) at age three. Families go on picnics, and in Israel huge bonfires are lit at night. Thousands travel to Meron, to the tomb of Rabbi Shimon.

Blessings and prayers

1 · Counting the Omer

בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה ה׳ אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם, אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ עַל סְפִירַת הָעֹמֶר

Baruch atah Adonai, Eloheinu Melech ha'olam, asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotav v'tzivanu al s'firat ha'omer.

Blessed are You, Lord our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with His commandments and commanded us to count the Omer.
