  • Hasidic leader held a holiday closing ceremony.
  • Gabbai dressed as a shepherd to entertain children.
  • Children were given candies during the event.

The Rebbe of Munkacs-Belz held a "pure table" ceremony to mark the closing of the holiday.

During the gathering, the longtime gabbai, Rabbi Yisrael Miller, amused the Munkacs-Belz Hasidic children by dressing up as a shepherd. He wore special clothing, an old shtreimel (fur hat), and carried a stick.

Rabbi Miller entertained the children with "precious pearls" of wisdom while tossing candies to them.
