Words of Blessing – מילות ברכה
Shavuot: “The Feast of Weeks,” on account of the seven weeks of the Omer that we count, from Pesach until Shavuot. It reminds us that there is meaning in every day, even when the days follow a different rhythm than usual. It calls to mind “Shabbat vayinafash,” that Shabbat offers a true rest for the soul, a refuge of time which we all need, and especially in times like now. May we all find it this Shavuot and Shabbat.
