Kesher Talk

Simchat Torah count-up - Day 9 - Chol Ha'moed Sukkot. An article about the little-known "apocalyptic" themes of Sukkot, via Protocols. The author compares this theme to the evangelical Christian "End of Days" scenario, which it resembles in some details, but not in its place in Jewish life - this theme shows up in the haftarah reading for the first day and in some Talmud discussion about the holiday, and that's about it. If you blink you'd miss it.
