How We Progress?
The Spring—at least for Jews in the Northern Hemisphere—is anchored in and framed by two central Holidays, Passover, this year March 27, and Shavuot, this year May 16.
Pesach is the holiday of our national birth. We were freed after 400 year of avdut, slavery in Egypt. Shavuot is the holiday when we received the Torah and entered into a special, mature covenant with G-d and with one another. The two holidays are separated by seven weeks.
