What is
Shavuot?
Shavuot is the Hebrew word for Weeks and Oath. It marks the conclusion of the Counting of Omer and commemorates the revelation of the Torah to Moses and the Israelites at Mount Sinai. It is customary to stay up all night learning Torah on the first night of Shavuot as well as hearing the 10 commandments read in Shul. It is also customary to eat dairy meals.
