Shavuot - Naso - 2023

Chevre, tonight is שָׁבוּעוֹת (Shavuot) followed immediately by נָׁשאֹׂ (Naso) in Israel. Outside Israel, Naso will be read next week. We have been counting the Omer up to Shavuot since Passover. Shavuot is the holiday of the giving of the Torah. It’s traditional to stay up all night (OK, I just can’t anymore, but I stay up later than usual. I need a real good support case escalation to get my blood moving late into the night to stay up).
