The Hebrew for bones is “‫–עצמות‬atzmot” which is also the word that means “essence.” Therefore, the custom of eating dairy products on Shavuot signifies that we absorb the Torah, which nourishes our “essence.” Furthermore, milk is the most basic food a mother can share with her baby. ‫בס"ד‬ Spiritual Insight For The Week with Rabbi Bentzion Kravitz Shavuot Mystery Nourishes Our Soul This week Jews worldwide will commence the celebration of the holiday of Shavuot and increase their prayers for peace in Israel. Staying up all night is considered a “rectification” [tikun] for the Jewish people having fallen asleep the night before receiving the Torah, rather than staying awake in anticipation. Shavuot also means “oaths,” which alludes to the giving of the Torah when the Jewish people and God exchanged oaths to establish an everlasting covenant that will never be forsaken. The word Shavuot means “weeks” and marks the completion of the seven weeks [the 49 days] between Passover and Shavuot, during which the Jewish people prepared to receive the Torah. Our sages point out that the numerical value of Torah nourishes the letters which form the Hebrew word for milk [‫–חלב‬chalav] is forty, alluding our essence. During this period, they refined themselves spiritually to enter into an eternal covenant with God with the receiving of the Torah on the fiftieth day. On Shavuot, we celebrate this personal relationship with God when He gives over His essence [the Torah] and we absorb it into the essence of our soul. This message is a powerful refutation to those who seek to discredit Judaism and testifies to our eternal spiritual connection with God.
