Sefiras HaOmer: Malchus - Short Version

About this episode

Rabbi Shulman discusses the final week of Sefiras HaOmer, focusing on the concept of Malchus and its significance in aligning with Hashem's will.

Rabbi Shulman frames the final week of ספירת העומר as the culminating עבודה that leads directly into שבועות: the מידה of מלכות. Unlike the earlier weeks’ focus on “doing” (active character refinement), מלכות is about “receiving”—aligning oneself with the singular רצון of הקדוש ברוך הוא and recognizing His unified dominion in all events. He connects this to קבלת עול מלכות שמים through שמע ישראל, explaining that Hashem’s oneness and kingship are mutually defining, and that this awareness is the core of אמונה.
