A Greater Kind of Joy

The nights of the festival of Sukkos are marked by Simchas Beis Hashoeva, dancing and joyous celebration reminiscent of the festivities in Temple times. The final day of Sukkos, Hoshana Rabbah, is marked in a more solemn way, as it is the day on which the judgement that began on Rosh Hashanah is sealed. But that should not be a reason not to celebrate.
