Hi Everyone!

Shavuot is the Jewish holiday that celebrates the giving 
of the Torah, the first harvest, and the ripening of the 
first fruits. The two day festival (1 day in Israel) begins 
on Thursday night, May 28, 2009.

The Jewish Trivia Quiz

has a selection of multiple choice questions about Shavuot.

What are the five names of Shavuot ?

Flash quiz. There are two levels of questions and two timer

entertaining and educational.
