There is no mention in the Written Torah of Shavuot as the holiday that marks and therefore celebrates the giving of the Torah. The only way we, in fact, know that Shavuot is the historical anniversary of Kabbalat HaTorah is through Torah She'B'al Peh. This fact may actually be of great significance in our gaining a true understanding of the nature of Torah.
In this regard, we invite you to view Shavuot and Torah She'B'al Peh at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAKVbquy3jg
