Hear the 10 Commandments

The holiday of Shavuot is the day on which we celebrate the great revelation of the giving of the Torah at Mount Sinai, more than 3,300 years ago. You stood at the foot of the mountain, as did your grandparents and great-grandparents before them. The souls of all Jews, from all times, came together to hear the Ten Commandments from G‑d Himself.

Be sure to hear the 10 Commandments

This year, on Friday, May 22, 2026, go to synagogue to hear the Ten Commandments and reaffirm the covenant with G‑d and His Torah.

The Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, explained that there is special significance to bringing children, even the youngest of infants, to hear the Ten Commandments on Shavuot.
