14. Hag Matan Torateinu
Shavuot celebrates the giving of
the Torah at Mt. Sinai, and is thus
also known as Hag Matan
Torateinu (the Festival of the
Giving of Our Torah). Why does
the name emphasize the giving of
the Torah, rather the receiving of
the Torah? The sages say that
we’re constantly in the process of
receiving the Torah, but it was
given on that day. Thus it is the
giving, not the receiving, that
makes this holiday significant.
