Publisher's Synopsis

The Jewish Festivals: From Their Beginnings to Our Own Day is a comprehensive guide to the Jewish holidays, written by Hayyim Schauss. The book covers the history, traditions, and customs of each of the major Jewish festivals, including Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Hanukkah, Purim, Passover, and Shavuot. Schauss explores the origins of each holiday, its significance in Jewish culture, and the various rituals and observances associated with it. He also provides insights into the ways in which the festivals have evolved over time, and how they are celebrated in different Jewish communities around the world. The Jewish Festivals is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about Jewish culture and tradition, and for those seeking to deepen their understanding of the meaning and significance of these important holidays.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
