Shavuot
Shavuot
This holiday has several names, but the most common is "Weeks" or "Feast of Weeks". And what is it exactly? It commemorates the day when God gave the Jews the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai. They responded: "We will do and we will listen". The holiday depends on the celebration of Passover - 50 days are counted from its beginning, and the last one belongs to the celebration of Shavuot. While in Israel it is celebrated for only one day, in the diaspora it usually lasts two days.
How do we celebrate: Synagogues are decorated with greenery and traditions include all-night Torah study. Before that, however, the entire Book of Ruth is usually read. Some communities even hold all-night readings until dawn and morning prayers. Naturally, people get hungry, so there is no shortage of good food and drink during this holiday.
What do we eat: In synagogues and prayer houses, tables are set and most often dairy foods are served. And why dairy foods? Before the Jews accepted the Ten Commandments, they didn't have to follow any dietary rules. Immediately after receiving the Torah, however, the situation changed. No dishes were kosher because both milk and meat had been cooked in them. Until the Jews solved this tricky situation, they were left with only fruits, vegetables and dairy products to fill their stomachs.
What do we wish each other: "Chag Shavuot sameach umushlam" which means "Happy and perfect Shavuot holiday". And if you're sending someone a greeting card, feel free to choose one decorated with a milk jug or a good piece of cheese.
