History of the Ba'al Hama'or. Why don't we say Shehecheyanu on Sefiras Haomer? Why do we make a Bracha on Sefirah if we're still going to do another Seder? Why don't we count 2 nights every night due to Safek? Is Sefiras Haomer today biblical or rabbinic? Why don't we make a Shehecheyanu when we burn the Chametz? Why don't we make a Shehecheyanu on Matzah? How does the Ramban say that Sefirah is a Mitzvah that is not bound by time?
