Usage: The term "heorté" refers to a religious festival or feast, often associated with Jewish traditions and celebrations.

These feasts were times of communal gathering, worship, and remembrance of God's acts in history. Cultural and Historical Background: In Jewish culture, feasts were central to religious life, serving as times for worship, thanksgiving, and community. They were instituted by God in the Old Testament as a means for the Israelites to remember His deliverance and provision.

In the New Testament context, these feasts also provided the backdrop for many of Jesus' teachings and miracles.
