It is very easy to prove that the counting of the omer is FROM the weekly Shabbat, and not the High Day Shabbat. So IF you do your counting from the High Day Shabbat, you are not following what has been commanded in the Torah, just as the missionaries have not followed the TRUE meaning of sacrifice.

Well, I'm glad that you have everything figured out, then.
Shalom Jason, you know, that young student of the Rebbe (who we met with back in the 80's), when he was asked to defend mainstream Judaism's teaching of the counting of the omer (after we presented to him the evidence that the counting must be AFTER the weekly Sabbath and not the High Day Sabbath), his response was something similar to yours. His ONLY recourse was to say that "well," Moses told Joshua, Joshua told the next judge and from thereafter, it was word of mouth from one generation to another, and that is why we believe the counting is from the High Day Sabbath. But, if he would have been like you, to where he would have been "more interested in the language and the text," THEN maybe he might have not relied so much on the "oral" tradition. Jason, things may not be as you assume them to be, so I will leave this topic for now, and pick it back up with you at a later date. Blessings in The Name, ImAHebrew.
