Every year on Sukkot, we leave the comfort of our home to eat our meals in booth. Among other things, Sukkot provides an opportunity to reflect on the concept of home and what it means to us.
There’s a tradition on Sukkot to invite seven guests into the sukkah, one for each night of the holiday. I’d like to add on to that tradition: seven questions you can ask at your Sukkot table during the seven days of Sukkot. One question for each night of Sukkot.
These questions will help create meaningful and reflective conversation at your Sukkot table.
