🔥As you sit around your Lag B'Omer bonfire today, remember the history behind the BBQs! 🔥
Here at The City of David, we discovered a rare bronze coin from the period of the Bar Kochba Revolt (around 132 CE). 🪙

@JewWhoHasItAll Everyone loves the totally secular Lag B’Omer bonfires and archery contests!
Lag B’omer, or the 33rd day of counting the Omer, is celebrated today! Fun fact: traditionally, it’s the only day out of the 49 between Passover and Rosh Hashanah when Jews cut their hair. What are rituals that make you feel beautiful?

It was an honor to visit The Well today in Gravesend in celebration of Lag B’Omer & to meet the incredible Gayle Sassoon. Enduring an unspeakable tragedy, she instead used it as an inspiration to change the lives of thousands of women by establishing The Well. A true role model! https://t.co/IWHFuYe6OR
