Historic Reenactment of the Omer Barley Offering

 From 2015


On Saturday night/Sunday, Apr 8, 2015, the 16th of Nisan, the Temple Institute, in cooperation with the Women on Behalf of the Holy Temple, performed a reenactment and training session for kohanim of the Omer harvesting and offering of the new barley crop in the land of Israel. The Omer offering is a Torah commandment to be performed every year in the Holy Temple. It marks the first day of the fifty day countdown between the start of Passover and the festival of Shavuot commemorating the receiving of Torah at Sinai.
Thanks to Adam Propp and Abba Richman for their beautiful photographs. Thanks to the Women on Behalf of the Holy Temple for their hard work and inspiration.
