What does OMER mean in Scrabble?
noun
historical
A middling ancient Hebrew grain measure, one tenth the size of an ephah, best known from a ritual count of days rather than from ordinary trade.
An omer measured out small amounts of grain in the ancient world, small enough to be a single person's daily ration rather than a household's supply. The word is best known today from the biblical count of the fifty days between Passover and Pentecost, still called counting the omer, though that use has moved from measuring grain to marking time.
