It is fitting that this parshat Emor is read during the Counting of the Omer.
We are counting the days from Passover until Shavout, the giving of the Torah.
When you count something it means that you are looking forward to it.
We are always looking forward to the Torah. We long for it. We see it in our mind's eye,
and we can hear the call of the Torah.
In our tradition, we are constantly working on ourselves. If you don't work on your
midot, then you are sliding backward. Each day has a different aspect of the Torah
that we work on. They are the watch words of our faith. Chesed, Strength, Beauty,
Greatness, Foundation, Eternity, and Kingdom. Each of these aspects relates to how
we deal with each other and how we relate to Hashem.
As we move closer and closer to the Giving of the Torah, may we also move closer to
The perfect world that we long for.
