Why were those who were unable to bring the Pesach offering on time
given another chance? Usually, once the time of an offering has elapsed,
it is too late to make it up.
The korban Pesach has deep meanings. It is the holiday of faith. It also
represents withdrawing from all forms of idolatry in order to serve
Hashem.
Pesach Sheini is in the month of Iyar. This is an acronym for the phrase,
“I am Hashem, your Healer.” By means of the korban Pesach, Hashem
heals a person’s soul from sin.
We have no korban Pesach nowadays. But the 14th of Iyar is the
anniversary of the death of Rabbi Meir Ba’al Haness, who enlightened
Bnei Yisrael with his Torah. This should inspire us to reach great heights,
in place of the korban of Pesach Sheini. # 26347-EYAL-6
