Torah Portion - Behar-Bechukotai
A Free Gift ...
Parashat Behar / by: Rabbi Dror Moshe Cassouto
There is no doubt that there's a very special and deep meaning from heaven as to why parshat Behar falls during the same week as Lag B'Omer; when all of Am Yisroel goes to Har (the mountain) of Maron to the gravesite of Rebbe Shimon Bar Yochai. We remember the argument that the mountains had among each other as to which mountain would have the merit to have the Torah given on it. One would have thought that HaShem would choose the highest and greatest mountain.
