Today at sundown ends Shavuot, the Festival of Weeks. It is the second of the three major festivals with both historical and agricultural significance in the Jewish faith. It includes celebrating God’s giving of Holy Scripture to the ancient Israelites. For more information: http://www.jewfaq.org/holidayc.htm & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shavuot
