Deuteronomy 16

what I remember:
Three feasts are overviewed - the point of the first two (the passover and the feast of weeks) is to remember from where they came.  The third is to celebrate the harvest.  I wonder if this is the point of all the Jewish festivals - remembering what God has done for them, and celebrating that.

key verse:
And you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt and you shall be careful to observe these statutes.

about God:
These feasts are important to God - they're repeated a lot.  I'm guessing that remembering what God has done for us is important to God, and that He also likes celebration.
