You shall celebrate three pilgrimage
festivals unto Me in the year. You shall keep the Festival of Matzot:
seven days you shall not eat leavened bread as I have commanded you, at the
appointed time of the month of spring, for in this month you came out of Egypt,
and you shall not appear empty-handed in My Presence. Exodus 23:14-15
The Torah commands us to visit the
Temple three times per year, and whenever one ascends to the Temple, he may not
appear in the Temple empty handed, but must bring a small offering.
My father commented that even more so,
one must not leave the Temple empty-handed.
