Three Annual Pilgrimages

Let those from the far ends of the land that the Hebrews will come to possess assemble together three times each year in the city where the Temple will be, to give thanks to God for His bounty and entreat Him for the things they will want thereafter, so that by assembling and feasting together they may be well-disposed toward each other.
