A roundup of creative Sukkot resources

May our prayers and voices weave together to draw the Divine presence near.

The sukkah protects the vulnerable … and it exposes the violators

This, I believe, is why the High Holidays are followed immediately by Sukkot, the Festival of Booths. Five days after we acknowledge mortality, Sukkot is a celebration of the temporary.

After almost two months of rising to the challenge of repentance and renewal, granting one another second chances for each other and ourselves, we get a second to sit down.

Sukkot invites us to live more fully present lives.

The sukkah is one profound place to remember the effects of global scorching on all of us.

Every once in a long while, different streams of time flow together in a way that seems uncanny—even miraculous.

When I imagine wearing my tallit in Ferguson and afterward, I am imagining how it will help carry with me a sense of security and home—a portable home just like the sukkah.
