Happy Sukkot!
During the holiday of Sukkot this week, Jews eat in booths that are usually roofed with vegetation. The sukkah recalls the temporary shelters biblical Jews had to use when they left the land of their enslavement and journeyed to Israel. One man in Jerusalem, Israel, tried to build his sukkah on his balcony this year. He leaned on some glass, but it broke and he fell from the fourth story. Fortunately, a downstairs neighbor had already built his sukkah: it broke his fall and may have saved his life. He was “moderately” injured. (AC/Times of Israel) ...Sometimes, what is temporary provides better protection than what is meant to be permanent.Original Publication Date: 23 September 2018
