Shavuot
Shavuot, one of the three pilgrimage festival holidays, celebrates the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai and the harvest of First Fruits, Yom haBikkurim.
Observed on the 6 and 7th days of the month of Sivan, Shavuot is a holiday commemorating a number of events simultaneously. In addition to the giving of the Torah, Shavuot is a harvest festival marking the end of the barley harvest and the gathering of the first fruits.
When is Shavuot in 2025? It begins in the evening on Sunday, June 1st, 2025, through Tuesday night, June 3rd, 2025. Shabbat immediately precedes the holiday for a “three-day chag.”
