SUMMARY:Simchat Torah
DESCRIPTION:22 Tishrei in the Land of Israel\; 23 Tishrei in the Diaspora
 \n\nThe "Rejoicing of the Torah\," which marks the completion and immedi
 ate recommencement of the annual cycle of weekly Torah readings: the fin
 al verses of Deuteronomy are read and the opening of Genesis begun witho
 ut pause\, so that the reading never ends. Its exuberant custom is the h
 akafot\, in which the Torah scrolls are carried in seven circuits around
  the synagogue amid singing and dancing\, and every worshipper is called
  to the Torah. It falls at the close of Sukkot\, coinciding in Israel wi
 th Shemini Atzeret and kept the following day in the Diaspora.\n\nhttps:
