Preparation list of three major festivals in Israel
The three main festivals in Israel are Passover, July 7th and Tent of Meeting.

The source of Passover is the Exodus chapter in the Bible. To commemorate the day when Jews could not eat fermented flour cakes when they left Egypt, before Passover, people should remove all fermented pasta from their homes. During Passover, everyone is forbidden to sell and eat fermented food, and can only eat a kind of dead bread called Matsa.

July 7th is one of the three pilgrimage days in the Jewish calendar. The date of July 7 is the seventh week after the second day of Passover, which is the day after the seventh week, so it is called July 7. Originally, July 7th was a festival of agricultural harvest. On this day, the Israelites dedicate the newly harvested wheat to God to thank God for his kindness and pray for another bumper harvest next year. The festival on July 7th marks the end of the wheat harvest.

The festival of tabernacles begins on June 5438+05 of the Jewish calendar every year and lasts for seven to nine days. Tent Festival is a festival to commemorate the four years before the Israelites left Egypt and entered Canaan. Every holiday, the government will send people to prune trees and send cut tree notes to believers to build sheds. Generally speaking, Jews must live in sheds during the Feast of Tabernacles to thank God for his gifts, except for the sick and the weak.
