Today we celebrate Shavuot, the day in which the nation of Israel first received Torah at Sinai, with an all-night total immersion in Torah study. Yet, this aspect of Shavuot is not even mentioned in Torah, and the central avodah – worship – in the Holy Temple – was the bringing of the bikkurim – first fruits. How do we explain this seeming discrepancy? How can we get back to the Torah of the land of Israel?

‘Fessing up: “The L-rd then spoke to Moses saying: Tell the children of Israel: When a man or woman commits any of the sins against man to act treacherously against G-d, and that person is [found] guilty,they shall confess the sin they committed, and make restitution for the principal amount of his guilt, add its fifth to it, and give it to the one against whom he was guilty.” (Numbers 5:5-7) When the person who has erred makes an oral confession the confession itself removes the sin from his essence and the person returns to his true self.
