In ancient Israel, Shavuot was one of the 3 pilgrimage holidays where everyone would bring the first fruits of their harvest to Beit Hamikdash, the Temple that stood on the Temple Mount in the heart of Jerusalem. The Temple and everything it represents is the reason Jerusalem is a holy city. For centuries Jews longed to return to Zion and Jerusalem. Every day our return was in Jewish prayers. Today, although still difficult, we can. It’s no wonder these Jews are singing.
