Pilgrimage
On three holidays, Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles, the children of Israel would come from all over the country to bring sacrifices to the temple. A great holiday was had by all. Even today, the city is filled with music and feasting, and visitors who are welcomed with heartfelt joy. And no matter how thick the crowds, one feels the respect and sensitivity of each person to those around him. Here are some pictures taken in the ancient city of Jerusalem, on the inbetween days of the holiday of Tabernacles, Succoth, in 2006.
