Why is the parsha of Bamidbar always read right before the holiday of Shavuos? What is the parallel between the journey of the Jewish people through the wilderness and the counting from Pesach to Shavuos? What is greater - the traveling and counting or reaching the destination? What is the paradox of counting or journeying toward a specific goal?

Why are the Jewish people forged as a nation in the wilderness? Why is it necessary to have these nesi'im as a prerequisite to the counting?
