Sukkos and Hallel Based on the Maharal

Sukkos is a Yom Tov full of mitzvos and themes: the sukkah, arba’ah minim, Ananei Hakavod, simchas beis hasho’evah, Hoshana Rabbah, Ushpizin, Shemini Atzeres, and Simchas Torah. With a holiday so full of mitzvos and meaning, shouldn’t it be appropriate for us to have a deep understanding of each of these mitzvos, and how they all fit together?

The Maharal has always been a remarkable source of knowledge, allowing us to have a deeper understanding of the ideas that Chazal have imparted to us. In this book, Rabbi Simcha Bunim Berger, rav, lecturer, and author, has gathered some of the many fascinating teachings of the Maharal on the subject of Sukkos and Hallel, as well as on Yom Tov in general, presenting them to us in a clear and organized way.

Allow the beauty of the Maharal’s words to elevate you and your connection to Sukkos. Feel an extra dose of simchah when you sit in the sukkah and while you recite Hallel. With Sukkos and Hallel Based on the Maharal as your guidebook, your perception of Zman Simchaseinu will never be the same!
