Article: Shavuot Israeli Dances
Shavuot is the holiday that celebrates the giving of the Torah,
which is the five books of Moses.
Shavuot is 50 days after Passover. On Passover the Israelites
left Egypt in a hurry. 7 weeks and one day later, the Israelites
arrived got the Torah at Mount Sinai.
The tradition is that every Jewish soul was at Mount Sinai
when God gave the Torah to Israel, which is why there is a
Jewish singles website www.SawYouAtSinai.com.
Shavuot is the summer harvest festival and is celebrated by
studying Torah and eating New York cheesecake.
At Sinai, God offered the Torah to the Jewish people and each soul
answered, "We will do and we will hear," which the Rabbis teach us
means we will eat cheesecake even if we do not understand the reason why.
www.aish.com/h/sh/se/48967001.html
Some dances we will try to get in for Shavuot are:
- Al Sadenu : On Our Fields
- Adama Admati : Land, My Land
- Adama Veshamayim : Earth and Sky
- Ashrei Haish : Blessed is the Man (Moses and the Burning Bush)
- Shibolet Basade : Ear of Grain in the Field
- Yedid Nefesh : Soul Mate
- Yevarechecha : He Will Bless You
