The seven-week period between the Biblical festivals of Passover and Shavuot, or Pentecost, is the season of Counting the Omer (Leviticus 23:10-16; Deuteronomy 16:9-11). Originally in the Tabernacle and Temple of Ancient Israel, the priests were to present special offerings before the Lord each day for the fifty-day count. Psalm 67 was among the hymns recited and employed to offer praise and adoration to Him. Since the destruction of the Second Temple, various Jewish traditions have been developed in order to make the seven-week or fifty-day Omer Count a very special time to focus on God, His blessings, and the important themes of Shavuot. Today's Messianic Believers can surely benefit from any discipline where God's people can review various Scripture passages for a set time, and allow themselves to be prepared for great things when the Feast of Weeks is finally observed. The awesome wisdom and goodness of our Heavenly Father are things definitely worthy of exploration and contemplation, via a reflection upon the themes of various Psalms, and how they relate to our understanding of Shavuot and our faith in Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ). Counting the Omer: A Daily Devotional Toward Shavuot is a compilation of insightful, encouraging messages that examines a passage from Psalms every day for the fifty-day Omer Count season. Each exhortation is intended to prepare you for the commemoration of Shavuot (Pentecost) at the end of seven weeks. Gleaned from the studies and notes of William Mark Huey, it is the author's intent that God's people can not only be energized to Count the Omer themselves--but be specially prepared to experience His presence when the Feast of Weeks finally arrives!

This is the full color edition, with stunning photographs by Matthew van der Giessen. The first edition, published as an ebook, is available in the Kindle Store . A third, black and white print edition is forthcoming in 2013. Through the Gates is a series of evocative letters and poems leading the reader through the practice of "counting the Omer." Poet Susan Windle writes to a group of spiritual companions who share the same contemporary Jewish mystic for a teacher, Rabbi Shefa Gold, and who are engaged together in the spiritual discipline of the Omer, an ancient practice marking the forty-nine days between the spring festival of Pesach (Passover) and the early summer festival of Shavuot, (the Festival of Weeks.) In the course of counting the days, Susan tells the story of her "convergence" with Judaism. Methodist by heritage, with a long connection to Unitarian Universalism, she became Jewish by choice in 2008. A bridge builder in many ways, Susan Windle has been described as a multi-faith community within herself. In these intricate writings-poems within letters, letters within larger letters- offering both spiritual memoir and guidance for daily practice, the poet explores the rhythms and textures of daily life, inviting the reader into intimate engagement with the mystery of life itself. Susan's story, as it unfolds through the seven weeks of the Omer, is celebratory, sweetly challenging, and deeply satisfying. From the author's Introduction: How to Use this Book These writings offer company and encouragement as you move through the practice of counting the Omer. The daily reflections and poems I've included are an invitation to attend to the quieter voices and subtler energies of your life, voices easy to miss in the rush-rush, flash-flash of contemporary daily life. The book is meant to be read day by day, each passage on its numbered day. For those new to the practice of counting the Omer, I include instructions on how to count the traditional way-beginning the second night of Passover, standing, after sundown, on the eve of each changing day.....I recommend saying the prayers in the traditional way at the traditional time-sometime during the dark of the evening, perhaps just before bed-and counting in the formal way. Doing so, we set our intentions for the following day, and we affirm our connection with generations who have counted before us. Having said that, let it be known the first year I counted I did none of this. I jumped in feet first-I wasn't even officially Jewish yet. Knowing very little about the Omer except the chart of daily attributes, I experienced the days as I found them. You, too, will find your way. ...The important thing here is to do something with the Omer, not just think, but do. As I've said, counting the Omer by the Tree of Life is more than a mental exercise or a topic of discussion. The [days] are portals, actual gateways to a deepening and expanding awareness of an extraordinary beauty: the heaven that hovers within and all around our so-called ordinary lives. The gates open to us when we open to them. between the doors all things are possible i don't mean my house or yours i don't mean inside or out that space between is where i'll meet you let's stop this back and forth let's stay right here in the doorway where all wars cease it may seem like a narrow place where nothing much could happen but we can not know the size of openings we do not see nor feel the breadth of that which waits for us the other side of what seems impossible Through the gates we go then-let's see what awaits us.

What values are most important to us? What is true strength? What constitutes real kindness? How and when can the average 21st century family discuss these questions? There are few opportunities for parents and children to think together about values and spirituality in our always-on, very connected and busy culture. This books invites parents, teens and school-aged children to indulge together in meaningful conversation during the seven weeks between Passover and Shavuot. The spiritual path of Counting the Omer is, of course, not only for children. This guide is child-friendly, but not child-"only. " Counting the Omer, the Biblical command to attend closely to the 49 days separating Passover and Shavuot, was transformed by ancient mystics into an invitation to contemplate God s attributes and learn to emulate them wisely. The Omer began as the celebration of the new harvest; so too can it be a time for growing our humanity by enriching it with sparks of Divinity. With quotes from philosophers, scientists, artists, historical personalities, and authors, Counting the Days builds a framework for appreciative self-reflectionon on the structure of the Sefirot the mystics description of seven discernable traits of the Divine. It is designed for use year after year, with simple contemplative exercises and meditations offered for those ready to dive more deeply than they can through words alone. With Counting the Days as your guide, you and your family can take the journey to Shavuot together, and arrive feeling grateful, renewed and connected. Advance Praise for Counting the Days Counting the Days offers a powerful way to bring the spiritual practice of Counting the Omer to the whole family with depth and meaning. It's a must-have in the Jewish home. --Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg, Author of "Nurture the Wow: Finding Spirituality in the Frustration, Boredom, Tears, Poop, Desperation, Wonder, and Radical Amazement of Parenting " Lea Gavrielli has written a beautiful, wise and compassionate guide through the Omer. It is filled with practical mindfulness instructions, ideas and quotes that open the heart and stimulate the mind. I could see using it over and over again throughout the whole year and not just the 7 weeks. --Larry Schwartz, Chair of the Institute for Jewish Spirituality Counting the Days is an invitation to adventure, using the Counting of the Omer as a framework for family conversation about ideas, values and the tradition. From Helen Keller to Herzl, Mother Teresa to Jason Mraz, wisdom and insights from a wide range of times and perspectives gather on the page to offer different pathways to insight and truth. Having watched some of these ideas engage our school s students and teachers, I highly recommend this text as a way to reinvigorate the tradition of the Counting of the Omer, ensuring that the journey from Pesach to Shavuot is one filled with discovery and delight. --Rabbi Andrew Davids, Head of School, Beit Rabban Day School, New York City"
