The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1913-06-09

Jewish people of this and other cities are preparing for the celebration of the feast of Pentecost which begins at sunset tomorrow, and, among ortho- dox Jews, continues two days. The word "'Pentecost'' signifies the hftieth, and the name was applied to the feast because it comes fifty days after the feast of the Passover. The conmoner Old Testament name of the festival, however, is the Feast Of Weeks be- cause it fell seven weeks after the of fering of the first sheaf of the harvest at the Feast of UnIeaVened Bread The Day of First Fruits is another name given to the observance, because oTigi- na1ly Ieavened bread was presented at the san nctuary as the first fruits of the new cereal store. In accordance with a later tendency to substitute histor1- cal for economic explanations of the great feastS, PentecoSt came to be re- garded as the feast comm eInorative of ''Shvuoth''-to give the festival its He brew. name-has triple significance. Most reform churches confirm their children on this day, and there are many other interesting observaLces connected with the festival.
 Like all other Jewish feasts, Shvuoth has it's special foods consecrated to that day. "B1inzos'' are as closely as sociated with PentecoSt as 'tnatzos'' with the Passover and ''homentashon'
 
 of pancakes, with a. mixture of spices, cheese and raisins in the center.
 In Deuteronomy Pentecost, like the other two great annual Jewish feasts, is a pilgrimage feast, but, unlike the others, 1t lasted but one day, agreeably to it's character as merely the solemn closing day of harvest time. Like the other great feasts, it came to be cele- brated by fixed special sacrifices. The amount of these was differently ex- pressed in the earlier and later priestly law, and the discrepancy was met by adding the two lists. The later Jews also extended the one day of the feast to two in accordance with the TaI- n1udic law, which states that because of the discrepancies of the calendars at that time, all holidays were to be kept two days, in order to insure one of them being the right day. Orthodox Jews still conform to this law, and it is only in reform synagogues that one day is observed.
