  1. “Ka-Arava”: Sukkot and Zechariah's Prophecy of Redemption

    Prof. Yoel Elitzur

    What aspect of the festival of Sukkot pertains to the nation of Israel and its history? The verse, “I made the Israelite people live in booths” (Leviticus 23:43) does not really answer our question, as the verse does not refer to any particular date in the month of Tishrei, but rather to the overall experience of the nation of Israel.

    The answer to the question is provided by the prophet Zechariah, in a prophecy that we read as the haftara on the first day of Sukkot.
