Samaritan Shavuot

SAMARITAN WATCH: Atop holy mount, Samaritans mark biblical festival of Shavuot. Tiny community makes pilgrimage to West Bank’s Mount Gerizim for seven day celebration of anniversary of receiving the Torah (Times of Israel). The Samaritans' celebration of Shavuot began yesterday (Sunday). And yes, "seven day celebration" above is correct.
