28 February: Purim (Judaism)
Purim celebrates the deliverance of the Jewish people from the
wicked Haman in the days of Queen Esther of Persia. They
remember Queen Esther who saved the life of the Jewish people, as
told in The Book of Esther. This is read twice in the synagogue. The
name of Haman is drowned out with rattles and hooters by
congregation whenever it is read. Many people come in fancy
dress. Hamantashen (cakes filled with poppy seeds,
literally "Haman's pockets") are made and eaten at this time.
Note that in the Jewish calander, a holiday begins on the sunset of
the previous day.
