圣诞节前夕平安夜为何著名
圣诞节前夕平安夜为何著名
圣诞前夜是一个重年夜的节日，是有神圣的理由的，像午夜聚会和商品零售原因.1867年是纽约市麦西百货公司在圣诞前夜持续营业到午夜的第一年。
一位HowStuffWorks的读者也十分亲热的指出：“所有的犹太族节日是年夜节日前一天的黄昏起头的。我们的节日典礼在前一天黄昏起头：典礼，烛光，…….非论什么都是年夜黄昏起头一向持续到第二天黄昏，然后才竣事。”
原文：
Why is the day before Christmas， Christmas Eve， celebrated？
Christmas Eve is a big deal for religious reasons， such as the midnight mass， and also for retail reasons. 1867 was the first year that Macy‘s department store in New York City remained open until midnight on Christmas Eve.
A HowStuffWorks reader was also kind enough to point out the following： “All Jewish holidays start at sundown the evening before （not at calendar midnight）。 Our holidays start with ceremony the evening before： rituals， candle-lighting， whatever.。. at sundown and they last until the following sundown， and then they’re over.”
