Объяснение
A tradition is a custom kept through generations. Before breaking bread we kiss it and touch it to our eyes, and we do not throw it on the ground. This shows respect for bread. The textbook has a story called “Ta’zim” (Respect) about respect for bread. Keeping traditions is respecting our ancestors.
