Dear Friend
Sorry, did you miss the punchline?
Wasn't that annoying?
I bet you wouldn't be willing to listen to a joke if you knew you would not get to hear the end of it.
Well, going to shul on Yom Kippur and then skipping Simchas Torah is like hearing the build up to a joke and missing the punchline. It makes no sense.
On Yom Kippur we express our Jewishness. On Simchas Torah we celebrate it.
On Yom Kippur we fast with humility. On Simchas Torah we eat and drink with joy.
Yom Kippur is the day our soul shines. Simchas Torah is the day our soul dances.
So you want to hear the punchline? See you in shul on Monday night...
Good Shabbos and Good Yomtov,
Areyah |

JOURNEY OF THE SOUL -
AN EXPLORATION OF LIFE, DEATH, AND WHAT LIES BEYOND
A fascinating new six-session course from the Rohr Jewish Learning Institute
|
|
What is a soul? Where does it go after it departs this world? Do Jews believe in heaven and hell? Can souls communicate with us from the afterlife? How does reincarnation work?
Journey of the Soul explores the mysteries surrounding the spiritual dimension of our existence—our destiny that continues even after we’ve shed our earth-bound body suit.
We examine the transition of the soul into the hereafter, the kinds of legacies that are valued even after we’ve forsaken this earthly existence, and the accompanying emotional journey and rituals that help the soul and those closest to it prepare for its new reality.

The Sukkot and Shemini Atzeret Torah readings are from Leviticus 22-23, Numbers 29, and Deuteronomy 14-16. These readings detail the laws of the moadim or "
appointed times" on the Jewish calendar for festive celebration of our bond with G-d; including the mitzvot of dwelling in the
sukkah (branch-covered hut) and taking the "
Four Kinds" on the festival of Sukkot; the
offerings brought in the Holy Temple in Jerusalem on Sukkot, and the obligation to journey to the Holy Temple to "to see and be seen before the face of G-d" on the three annual
pilgrimage festivals -- Passover, Shavuot and
Sukkot.
On
Simchat Torah ("Rejoicing of the Torah") we conclude, and begin anew, the
annual Torah-reading cycle. First we read the Torah section of Vezot Haberachah, which recounts the blessings that Moses gave to each of the twelve tribes of Israel before his death. Echoing
Jacob's blessings to his twelve sons five generations earlier, Moses assigns and empowers each tribe with its
individual role within the
community of Israel.
Vezot Haberachah then relates how Moses ascended Mount Nebo from whose summit he
saw the Promised Land. "And Moses the servant of G-d died there in the Land of Moab by the mouth of G-d... and no man knows his burial place to this day." The Torah concludes by attesting that "There arose not a prophet since in Israel like
Moses, whom G-d knew face to face... and in all the mighty hand and the great
awesome things which Moses did before the eyes of all Israel."
Immediately after concluding the Torah, we
begin it anew by reading the first chapter of Genesis (the beginning of next
Shabbat's Torah reading) describing G-d's creation of the world in
six days and His ceasing work on the seventh--which He sanctified and blessed as a day of
rest.
