| The holiday of Purim celebrates the victory of the Jewish people over the evil Haman. On the day preceeding Purim there is a fast called "The Fast Of Esther". On Purim itself, the Megillah (Book Of Esther) is read twice, once at night and once during the day. Purim is celebrated by giving charity, sending Shalach Manot (gifts of prepared food) and holding a festive meal. |
