<div style="color:black;font: 10pt arial;">It has always bothered me. that R'Akiva's student died during the Sefirah period.
<div>AS the Gemara states" Shelo Nahagu Kavod Zeh Baze,.</div>
<div>Just because of Kavod they died? Usually people die because of "serious": avairos.</div>
<div>What that the "serious" aveira that caused them to die?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>True, they did not always follow their Rebbes dictum of Veahavta leraiacha Kamoche, But is that a reson to kill off the future leaders of Bnai Yisroel?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Maybe someone can come up with sa solid reason for their demise.</div>
