Shavuot

Clip: 6/3/2011 | 3m 11s

This ancient Jewish festival celebrates the giving of the Torah to Moses on Mount Sinai.

The Jewish holiday of Shavuot, says Rabbi Shira Stutman, it is a time of "rejoicing in the harvest, rejoicing in this gift of Torah that God has given us, and rejoicing in the ability to learn from Torah in each and every generation."
