It is the correction of the sins of [[Tisha B'av]]. Also, it is the 28th day from [[Shiva Asar BTamuz]] which is the gematria of כח, strength, as we hope that the incomplete names of Hashem which add up to 22<ref>The Vav (6) Key (5) from Hashem's four letter name, the Aleph (1) from Kiseh, His Chair, and the Yud (1) from Yerushalayim are all missing in the Torah until the coming of Mashiach. Together they add up to 22 (6+5+1+10). However, once the Mashiach will come we will again have these letters together with the Vav (6) from Eliyahu, which would make a complete set of 28. 28 is also associated with a complete moon, which is an analogy to the rebirth and restoration of the redemption of Klal Yisrael. Also, 28 is the miluy of the miluy of Hashem's name.
