Back by popular demand, the classic JPS holiday anthologies remain
essential and relevant in our digital age. Unequaled in-depth
compilations of classic and contemporary writings, they have long
guided rabbis, cantors, educators, and other readers seeking the
origins, meanings, and varied celebrations of the Jewish festivals.
The Sukkot and Simhat Torah Anthology offers new insight intothe
Festival of Ingathering, celebrating the harvest in the land of our
ancestors, and the Festival of Rejoicing in the Law, marking the
new cycle of public Torah readings, by elucidating the two
festivals' background, historical development, and spiritual truths
for Jews and humankind. Mining the Bible, postbiblical literature,
Talmud, midrashim, prayers with commentaries, and Hasidic tales,
the compendium also showcases humor, art, food, song, dance,
essays, stories, and poems-including works by Chaim Weizmann, Elie
Wiesel, Herman Wouk, S. Y. Agnon, Sholom Aleichem, H. N. Bialik,
and Solomon Schechter-truly a rich harvest for the "Season of Our
Rejoicing."
