Respect: 18 Iyar, 5743 · May 1, 1983
The Talmud tells us that 24,000 students of Rabbi Akiva died because “they did not treat one
another with respect.” But the plague ended on Lag BaOmer, which means they had remedied
their actions and began to treat each other with the appropriate level of esteem.
