Description
From dawn to dusk, the air in Meron was filled with simcha Lag BaOmer day as yidden from all walks of life came to participate in the hilula of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai. This stunning essay documents the day, starting with shacharis b'vasikin followed by an daf yomi shiur. Hundreds of fathers brought their sons for their chalakas while other children played with crossbows and dance. Some people went on hikes to nearby mekomos kedoshim as others joined the crowds by the fires (Yosef Gottlieb / Kuvien Images)
