Welcome to our special SUKKOT thru SIMCHAT TORAH 5781 issue. (Next issue will be during the week of Oct. 11, for Shabbat Bereshit.)
All 7 articles offer interesting mystical insights for the consecutive Festivals. Enjoy! After all, these festivals, 'subtitled' zeman simchateinu — "the occasion of happy celebrations", provide the definition for how to have a Jewish good time.
(The 4th. 5th & 6th articles are for the latter holidays of Hoshana Rabba, Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah respectively.)
