Final Holiday

Simchat Torah means “Rejoicing in the Torah,” it is the time when the Torah both ends and begins again–a circle that never ends.

The three weeks of holidays ends tonight with the final celebration which brings the New Year down to the ground through dancing. After the prayers of Rosh HaShana/New Year, the fasting and repentance of Yom Kippur/Day of Atonement comprising the ten days of Malchut/Royalty followed by four days representing the YHVH the Four Letter Name of God leading to the seven days of Succot when the 70 nations of the world make peace with Yisroel/Israel comes the final holiday–Shemini Atzerit/Eight Conclusion.

Eight in Torah signifies infinity; it is why at the end of the seventh day, the Shabbot, when approaching the eight reverts back to the beginning thus starting the new week. Eight also relates to the surrounding aspect known in Cabala as Keter/Crown representing Will and Pleasure the two essences of the soul.

The 22 days of holidays and celebration are related to the the 22 letters of the Hebrew language which were given to Yaakov/Yisroel–Israel whose name can be rearranged to read Rosh Li/My Head; it is in the head where the sperm is born through the third eye attached to the soul–The Cabala explains how on the this eight day a drop of celestial sperm comes into the world to conceive the New Year.

The chromosome is also made of 22.
