In this class, Rabbi Shlomo discusses Lag B'Omer and what it is all about. We explore the life of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai and how his teachings spread to the world and evolved over the centuries. We speak about the place of Kabbalah in Jewish study and why there has been a movement towards greater Kabbalistic study in recent years.
