Fortnite Festival #6 of Counting Days
Tuesday, 21 May, 2024
COUNTING DAYS is a text-based Gemara mini-series focused on the Mitzvah of Sefirat Ha"Omer, the annual Post-Passover Counting of Days that leads us up to Shavuot -- the holiday commemorating the Giving of the Torah. The series began with the Reaping of fresh Barley for the firstling grain offering called The Omer, the eponymous source for our national count-up commandment. Tractate Menachot, Page 65b -- FORTNITE FESTIVAL continues with the presentation of two more persuasive demonstrations as to the veracity of time-honoured Torah tradition regarding timing for Omer Counting. The focus will be on Pilgrim Holiday Scheduling and Calendrical Calculations. In this Episode, we will study the concluding arguments [of this four-part segment] of the Sages regarding the proper time to begin Sefirat Ha’Omer, the commandment to Count Days upon bringing a Firstling Grain Gift to G-d to schedule the immediate next Festival: Shavuot! Here, even greater clarity will be obtained by virtue of the Torah’s juxtaposition on the unique biblical terminology used to describe the proverbial Omer Offering alongside the Giant Breads of Pentecost. Comprising yet another ironclad proof of our Torah- true tradition about for the timing of this Mitzvah, this further defends us from the theological attacks of ancient Heretical Jewish Sects. To be sure, while these spiritual deviants have long ago faded into historical irrelevance, their heretical notions have continued to evolve and metastasize n in new, equally toxic forms of deviant theology -- even today! This sixth segment of the series -- entitled FORTNITE FESTIVAL -- on Sefirat Ha'Omer has been generously sponsored by Felix and Rita Zilnik to commemorate the Yahrzeit Rita’s father Yona ben David.
