Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah 2023

SHEMENI ATZERET AND SIMHAT TORAH took place this weekend. As I mentioned, I was away and was less than organized in pre-posting. This was not a weekend of joy or celebration, but I wish well anyone who managed to observe some of these holidays.

Again, my thoughts and prayers are with the people of Israel and, especially, the victims of the attack.

Last year's Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah (Simhat Torah) post is here, with links.
