History of Hakafot (Sources)

$39.00

One of our most festive Holidays, an all-out celebration of the Torah, has neither Scriptural nor Talmudic basis.

These sources trace the development of this custom as well as many others related to Simchas Torah:
The yearly schedule for completing the reading of the Torah, the ensuing celebration and unique liturgy read on this occasion, the custom of dancing and circling the Bima seven times, other celebratory expressions such as marching with candles, torches and much more.

Also includes a collection of anecdotes regarding the importance of experiencing joy during this event.
