Sukkot

In the tradition of the Jews, there are three "Pilgrimage Festivals". The first is "Passover" which is celebrated to honor the memory of the exodus from Egypt. The second is "Pentecost" or "Shavuot" which commemorates the revelation of the Torah on Mount Sinai. The third and final is "Tabernacles" or "Sukkot" which is a celebration that honors the huts which were the places where the prophet Moses and the Israelites lived for forty years in the desert.
