Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah 2024

SHEMINI ATZERET begins tonight at sundown. In Israel, this is also the holiday of Simchat Torah (Simhat Torah). Outside of Israel, the latter holiday begins tomorrow at sundown. I wish you the joy of the holiday in the midst of the mourning for last year.

Last year's Shemini Atzeret post is here. Biblical etc. links are here.
