Today we celebrate Shavuot. Shavuot commemorates the
anniversary of the day God gave the Torah to the entire
nation of Israel assembled at Mount Sinai.
The word Shavuot means weeks and the festival of Shavuot
marks the completion of the seven-week counting period between Passover and
Shavuot.
It's told that Mount Sinai suddenly blossomed with flowers in
anticipation of the giving of the Torah on its summit. For
these reasons, the
girls traditionally wear white dresses and flower garters on this holiday.
I love this holiday!
אאוטפיט חגיגי לכבוד שבועות: שמלה
לבנה, תיק קש וזר פרחים על הראש, כמו בשיר: סלינו על כתפינו, ראשינו הדורים!
חג שמח!!
