What Exactly Are We Celebrating on Lag BaOmer?

Lag BaOmer is also the day the Jewish people began receiving the mann in the desert. The mann taught them to trust Hashem one day at a time, knowing that today’s portion is enough for today and tomorrow’s portion will come tomorrow. This is why Lag BaOmer prepares us for receiving the Torah: Torah belongs to people who can live with trust, calm, and faith in Hashem’s daily care.
