Dear Rabbi. Is it proper to bring to a Shul where they make a fire on Lag Baomer, used clothing that one will through away as is, to be burned by the fire? Wasn’t something similar done with the used clothing of the Cohanim in the Beis Hamikdash during Sukot? Would that not give good use to clothing that is to be discarded?
Using one’s used clothing for a Lag Baomer fire in shul may be seen as a disgusting and offensive act by the other attendants so it is better to avoid. It cannot be compared to the Big’dei Kehuna, that had a high degree of Kedusha and holiness.
