Volume 2, No. 3Welcome to the World of Rabbi Riddle.
Rabbi Riddle Says...

The End Is Near! And So Is The Beginning!
  Get Back To Where You BelongTesting 1,2,3...  
Sunday is Hoshana Rabba. During the morning prayers, we follow a custom of the ancient prophets of Israel. We circle the Bima (reading table) 7 times, saying prayers, and then we take a bundle of 5 willow branches, and strike them 5 times on the floor, asking G-d to judge His world with mercy.

Monday is Shemini Atzeres. It's a holiday all by itself. On this day, we ask G-d for rain in Israel.

Tuesday is Simchas Torah! We dance with the Torah, then we read the last section (Parsha) in the Torah and, right away, begin it again!
