Shavuot 5766
Celebrating birth of the Jewish Nation over 3000 years ago at Mount Sinai
Jews all over the world gather in their synagogues and homes, and stay up the whole Shavuot night to learn Torah. It is an unbelievable personal and communal experience to see the sun rise over the horizon in anticipation of receiving the Torah all over again. If you have never done it, please please consider it. What have you got to loose except some sleep, but who can sleep when you can witness the most earth-shattering experience in the world-history without exaggeration, G-d communicating his most intimate thoughts to mere human beings. Consider this thought; the three major religions of the world have many different opinions and believes, but they all agree at least on one issue; the revelation of Torah at Mount Sinai to the Jewish people at the presence of their Prophet Moshe Rabeinu.

Let us set aside our differences at this special night, unite as a people with one voice and one heart, and receive in peace and love, that which has been our life blood since that awesome day over 3000 years ago.
There is a fantastic array of Shavuot-related articles in the cyber space. If you decide to stay up, please print and read some of them, and contemplate at how fortunate you are, "ashreinu, ma tov chelkeinu".
