Sukkot Schedule Lulav and Etrog Reserve Sukkah Meals Simchat Torah Public Sukkahs
Following the seven joyous days of Sukkot, we come to the happy holiday of Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah. The first day is known by its biblical name, Shemini Atzeret. We still dwell in the Sukkah, but without a blessing. The second day is known as Simchat Torah, during which we complete and immediately begin the annual Torah reading cycle. This joyous milestone is marked with dancing, traditionally following seven circuits known as Hakafot. Both days are celebrated by nightly candle lighting, festive meals, and desisting from work. In Israel, the entire holiday is compacted into one heady 24-hour period. This year we have a beautiful bima cover, embroidered with all the names of those murdered on Oct. 7th as we commemorate their yahrzeit this Simchas Torah. Join us for as we celebrate our unshakeable faith in Hashem!
