## Resource

In this episode on Parshas Emor , Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the spiritual themes of holiness and continuity. He highlights Pesach Sheni (14 Iyar) as Hashem’s gift of second chances for those who were impure or too far to bring the Korban Pesach on 14 Nisan — teaching that it’s never too late to correct course, reconnect with Hashem, and fulfill mitzvos. The parsha also introduces the Omer count, beginning “the day after Shabbos” (Mimacharas HaShabbos), not a fixed calendar date. This emphasizes carrying Pesach’s holiness and emunah forward — the inspiration doesn’t end when Pesach does; it infuses the coming weeks until Shavuot, like helium sustaining a balloon if we don’t let it leak. Rabbi Wolbe stresses intentional living: infuse every mitzvah with passion so its effect lasts the full year. Just as Shabbos carries into the week (Mimacharas HaShabbos), Pesach’s redemption should propel us toward receiving the Torah. Customs like eating leftover matzah on Pesach Sheni and omitting Tachanun reinforce this continuity. The message: never despair — Hashem always offers renewal, and we must keep the spiritual “helium” flowing through consistent avodah. _____________ This episode of the Parsha Review Podcast is dedicated in honor of Lenny & Teresa Friedman Download & Print the Parsha Review Notes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ncaRyoH5iJmGGoMZs9y82Hz2ofViVouv?usp=sharing Recorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on May 1, 2026, in Houston, Texas.
