Harvesting the Omer (Hilchos Temidin u'Mussafin 7:1-11)
Show Notes

This afternoon (4/6/21 at YBT) in our Rambam Bekius chavurah we began a side-topic: the Omer. The Rambam begins with the mussafim of Rosh Chodesh and Pesach. We took a brief moment to discuss ALL the mussafim. The Rambam then goes on to recount the procedure for harvesting the Omer, and the measures taken to refute the view of the Tzedukim.

Bekius Disclaimer:
Note that this is a bekius chavurah - as opposed to an iyun shiur. Each session consists of us reading through the Rambam's writings together without much preparation on my part, and without going into depth by consulting commentaries or primary sources. For all these reasons, there are bound to be inaccuracies, errors, and other types of shortcomings which would not be acceptable in a prepared shiur, but are quite typical of a bekius chavurah. Please bear this in mind, and know what you're signing up for when you listen!
