FEAST OF WEEKS
TO BE CELEBRATED

The festival of Shahouth, or Feast
of Weeks, which this year falls on the
seventeenth of May, was one of the
there ancient Jewish harvest festivals
as well as one of three annual oc-
casions of pilgrimage to Jerusalem and
the Temple, when the latter was stand
ing and the Jews lived in their own
land. The holiday is called the Feast
of Weeks" because it occurs seven
weeks after Passover. just as the
Christian Pentecost, which is of cog
nate origin, comes fifty days after
Easter.
In the modern synagogue, in accord
anee with a tradition that the Ten Cshm-
mandments We're given on this day. and
that by accepting them Israel entered
into covenant with God, children of
13 to 16 years of age are confirmed. BY
this beautiful rite, the Jew renews, as
1t We're, the covenant made by his an
cestors at Sinai, when they said. 1--WE
will hearken and we will do" fEXod
PAD Just as these forefathers brought
the first fruits of their fields as offer
ings to God, thereby thanking Him for
His bounty, so their descendants lead
their choicest offerings, their boys and
girls, to His altar and consecrate them
TO the religion of their fathers.
