Simchat Torah or Simhat Torah (Hebrew: שִׂמְחַת תּוֹרָה, lit., "Rejoicing with/of the Torah", Ashkenazi: Simchas Torah) is a Jewish holiday that celebrates and marks the conclusion of the annual cycle of public Torah readings, and the beginning of a new cycle. Simchat Torah is a component of the Biblical Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret ("Eighth Day of Assembly"), which follows immediately after the festival of Sukkot in the month of Tishrei (occurring in mid-September to early October on the Gregorian calendar).
The main celebrations of Simchat Torah take place in the synagogue during evening and morning services. In Orthodox as well as many Conservative congregations, this is the only time of year on which the Torah scrolls are taken out of the ark and read at night. In the morning, the last parashah of Deuteronomy and the first parashah of Genesis are read in the synagogue. On each occasion, when the ark is opened, the worshippers leave their seats to dance and sing with the Torah scrolls in a joyous celebration that can last for several hours.
The morning service is also uniquely characterized by the calling up of each member of the congregation for an aliyah. There is also a special aliyah for all the children.
The Simchat Torah festivities begin with the evening service. All the synagogue's Torah scrolls are removed from the ark and are carried around the sanctuary in a series of seven hakafot (circuits). Although each hakafa need only encompass one circuit around the synagogue, the dancing and singing with the Torah often continues much longer, and may overflow from the synagogue onto the streets.
In Orthodox and Conservative Jewish synagogues, each circuit is announced by a few melodious invocations imploring God to Hoshiah Na ("Save us") and ending with the refrain, Aneinu B'yom Koreinu ("[God] answer us on the day we call"). In Orthodox and Conservative synagogues, the hakafot are accompanied by traditional chants, including biblical and liturgical verses and songs about the Torah, the goodness of God, Messianic yearnings, and prayers for the restoration of the House of David and of the Temple in Jerusalem. Congregations may also sing other, popular songs during the dancing. Children often receive flags, candies and other treats. The vigour of the dancing and degree of festive merriment varies with congregational temperament.
In Orthodox synagogues, men and boys predominate in the dancing; children (even young girls) may also dance with their fathers. Women and older girls often have their own dancing circles (sometimes with the Torah scrolls), or look on from the other side of a mechitza (partition), in accordance with the value of tzniut (modesty). In Conservative and Progressive congregations, men and women dance together. In some congregations, the Torah scrolls are carried out into the streets and the dancing may continue far into the evening.
After the hakafot, many congregations recite a portion of the last parashah of the Torah, V'Zot HaBerachah ("This is the Blessing ...") in Deuteronomy. The part read is usually 33:1-34:12, but this may vary by individual synagogue custom, although Deuteronomy is never read to the end in the evening.

Nice to see women joining in
yes, and they are so incredibly beautiful, inside and out. Noticing how this younger girl who may have been slightly over-enthusiastic got gently redirected without admonishment of any kind, preserving her dignity.

Shalom Zahi! Would you be willing to list the different songs on this video and the time mark? This is the best Simchat Torah video ever in my book:) Todah rabah!
I really don't know those songs. Sorry
@@zahishaked No worries😊 thank you for responding so quickly.
Oh how I wish to experience this one dance if I move to Israel
A real Feast of Joy! Engaging (I was going to dance with them). I only saw young people and the adults? Shalom Zahi
Jews, don't call our holidays feasts
❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Glory, honor, power, blessings, wisdom, Thanksgiving, and majesty belongs to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He alone is worthy of all praises for He is the one true God who lives forever and ever. Salvation comes from our God on the throne and from the Lamb, our Lord and savior Yeshua.
Amen 💪🏽💞🙏🏼

Looks like they are enjoying the music
Unlike the residents of the streets, I assure you
Amenx

עם ישראל חי - שמחת תורה - ה'תשפ''ב
God bless, protect and prosper Israel !
Christians need to learn to rejoice in the Lord from the Jews.
Ein od Milvado!
🙏🏽💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
I'm assuming this is motzei Yom tov?
What’s the artist and songs??
I don't know
Но я верую, что увижу благость Господа на Земле живых, надейся на Господа, мужайся и да укрепляется сердце твои и надейся на Господа...
Just adding that we support Israel unequivocally.
Thank you
😀🙏💙💙💙💙
What is the name of the main song 6.00
Sadly I don't know
@@zahishaked I'll get it.
How beautiful it was to see the cops walking by their sides ,not like in some other countries,cops attacked the people.
Chegando
ha perro ya te Vi tomando el agua bendita 😅😅
HAHA NICE THANK YOU BROTHER
PRAISE THE LORD JESUS
Those guys how do they do that it’s so crazy and insane
Why do women dance in a separate place? I'm asking because I don't know. 08:46
It's a great question. The religious jews believe that they will worship God better if they won't be think or look at the other gender
This is not simchat Torah. The Torah they are dancing with was just finished and is being danced down the street to the synogogue.
0:20 - name of this song please?
I don't know those songs
@@zahishaked Ok, maybe someone else will know.

sorry … but what do they celebrate ?! I have no idea what’s going on there 😮
They finished reading all the chapters of the Bible and they will start reading it again
@@zahishaked is this for real ?! That’s nice 😍❤️
Наш поровозик есть
Я буду с вами так скакать по улицам?да?
Something undefined and cankerous.
😅
I think the women should be in front of the men. Before any man can be born there must be a WOMAN FIRST. So lets show the WOMEN RESPECT.
The women are there...depends upon from which side of the procession you joined.....at least the women are allowed to dance with them unlike some religions which say that women have half a brain and should be behind veils.
@@Herod4 they should be together with the men. I do not care about other religions.
Just wait and watch for final battle
1 “For behold, in those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
2 I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will enter into judgment with them there, on behalf of my people and my heritage Israel, because they have scattered them among the nations and have divided up my land,
3 and have cast lots for my people ...
16 The LORD roars from Zion, and utters his voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth quake.
But the LORD is a refuge to his people, a stronghold to the people of Israel.
17 “So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, who dwells in Zion, my holy mountain. And Jerusalem shall be holy,
and strangers shall never again pass through it.
18 “And in that day
the mountains shall drip sweet wine, and the hills shall flow with milk,
and all the streambeds of Judah shall flow with water; and a fountain shall come forth from the house of the LORD
and water the Valley of Shittim
20 But Judah shall be inhabited forever, and Jerusalem to all generations.
21 I will avenge their blood,
blood I have not avenged,
for the LORD dwells in Zion.”
(Joel 3)
Jehoshphat means: the Lord will judge.
If the purpose of the Torah was to destroy the Torah tablets after they received the Torah. Why weren't the Torah scrolls burned yesterday?
Your question is so incomprehensible and strange. I do not even know if this is a real question or a joke
Я прикинула, можно
Men and women dance separately.
Yes. It makes sense. Modesty
Yes
Тора! Это, праздник иудеев. И, празднование, если они, хотят.. То, только, на земле той, которая им дана, свыше.
The Bible 'book' = a compendium of fire side tales and fables,
recounted orally
for generations by goat herders and primitive tribes from the stone age,
until writing was invented,
and then, many different sources, transliterations, and versions were copied and written down..
The Bible was created during a time where stories were verbally passed down over hundreds of years.
Stories constantly morphed and changed over time, and the Bible is a collection of these.
This is why it has the nearly identical flood fable stories from Gilgamesh,
and why this mythical Jesus has the same characteristics as Dionysus, Osiris, Horus, Mithra, and Krishna.
The contradictions and immorality in the stories are not evidence that God is flawed or evil,
but rather that humans invented him,
just like the thousands of other gods that we used to, but no longer believe in.
..and to answer the questions of the many fears and mysteries of our universe, like 'thunder' and earthquakes,
since there was no science yet.
That was the old Testes!
The most intelligent people in the world are the people of the Old & New Testament: the Jews.
The most sold Book of all time is The Bible: 5 billions copies. 3,9 billions in the past 50 years alone!
Highly recommended:
