Remember Observe Rejoice

The revised version of REMEMBER, OBSERVE, REJOICE is a reference guide to the Jewish Feasts, Holidays, Memorial Days and Events. The commandment to rejoice accompanied Jews throughout their long history. Today, the people of Israel continue to enjoy each happy event in the Jewish life cycle - from circumcision to bar mitzvah to marriage. And you don't have to be a religious Jew to celebrate the pilgrim festivals and the Shabbat.
This book gives background information on how the festivals and events were celebrated in Biblical times, and how it is done today, in the re-born State of Israel. The guide will help to gain more respect and appreciation for the Biblical Festivals, the Jewish Holidays and the Word of God. This book gives answers to many questions, as it explains Jewish customs and rituals which are often not mentioned in the travel guides.
Not only pilgrims and tourists, but also volunteers staying in Israel for a longer period of time, will find this book a helpful tool.
