The Sefira period from Pesach to Shavuos is seven weeks, the mourning period from 17 Tamuz to Tisha B'av, is known as the "3 weeks". Basic math would say that 7 weeks is longer than 3 weeks. True, but what used to be a time of no chasunas during sefira except for lag baomer has now changed. More weddings are taking place during the 2nd half of sefira after lag Baomer. That makes the longest stretch of the sefira period from Rosh Chodesh less than 3 weeks.
A sign of the times.
This post is nonsensical nonsense. No one asked you for your opinions. What counts is the Halacha.
ReplyDeletehow true a friend in the music industry told me that sefira is now full time jobs.
ReplyDeleteBTW, the aveilus of sefira always precluded weddings during the second half of sefira. Take a look at what Rav Elyashiv had to say about it.
