Last Jewish Holiday Absence ‘Til Passover
Tonight at sundown is the last of the Jewish holidays for a while. The holidays, Shemini Atzeret (which means the “8th Day of the Assembly” and always comes right after the Jewish holiday of Sukkot) and Simchat Torah (which means “Happiness for the–-or of the–-Torah”) end on Friday Night. I’ll be out of live blog commission but have stuff I’ve written in advance for publication here on Thursday and Friday, which I think you’ll find of interest and which is newsworthy. And I’ll try to put something else up today, if time permits. Stay tuned.

I trust you’ll pardon this Gentile if his Hebrew is a bit screwy. It’s supposed to read “Happy Holy Day.”
