Day 2 of the Omer
הֲרֵי זֶה מְשׁוּבָּח
[The Haggadah states: Vechol harmarbeh lesaper biyetzias Mitzrayim, harei zeh meshubach — lit., “Whoever relates the story of the Exodus from Egypt at length, this [person] is praiseworthy.”]
זֶה, מוֹרֶה עַל מַדְרֵגָה דִקְדוּשָּׁה, הִנֵה אֱלֹקֵינוּ זֶה
[The word] zeh (“this”) denotes a distinct level of holiness, as implied by the phrase, Hinei Elokeinu zeh — “Behold, this is our G‑d.”
וְכָל הַמַּרְבֶּה כו' זֶה שֶׁלּוֹ הוּא מְשׁוּבָּח
When a person tells the story of the Exodus at length, his capacity to perceive G‑dliness [so that he can say “This is it!”] is praiseworthy.
