Sukkot Fall Festival: with rides, games and food in celebration of Jewish holiday of Sukkot. Witness, for example, Medina's complete and accurate translation of the Hebrew blessing for inhabiting a sukkah (booth or tabernacle) in folio 9r of the Salazar dossier: "Blessed are you adonay, our God, King of the Universe, who has sanctified us in your commandments and has commanded us to dwell in sukkot. It's also true that, according to Zechariah 14:16, one of the markers of the arrival of messianic times will be that all the nations celebrate Sukkot, but this seems to me to say more about Sukkot than universalism--of all the Jewish holidays, Sukkot, the celebration of the harvest, is the least particularistic. |
