Chag Sameach,

The Staff of The JTF Forum wishes our Jewish members a Chag Shmini Atzeret and Simchat Torah Sameach, a Happy Shmini Atzeret and Simchat Torah Holiday. After a week of celebrations for the whole World and with offerings for The Righteous Gentiles as well, Shmini Atzeret is the closing eighth day where Jews alone bring offerings. In Israel, this day is combined Simchat Torah, The Rejoicing of The Torah. In The Diaspora, an extra ninth day of the holiday is added for Simchat Torah. During the eighth and ninth days, The Jewish People are not permitted to work, including using a computer. Therefore, the Jewish administrators will not be carrying out administrative duties from Friday Night until Sunday Night. At the termination of the holiday, Chaim will be recording the new Ask JTF.

Yacov Menashe Ben Rachamim,
Chief Administrator.
