The other view which is that sitting in the sukkah is not the most important thing of Sukkot.
The reason why some people hold this is because a festival is not about one thing but many things just because it is called one of the things we do in the festival doesn’t mean that is the main thing of the festival. In Sukkot it is not just sitting in the hut but also shaking the different species, so the main thing of the festival can’t be just sitting in the sukkah. When we pray we add in lots of extra prayers and that is also important.
In conclusion I think that sitting in the sukkah IS NOT the main thing of Sukkot, because although it says in the torah one should sit for 7 days in a sukkah, that doesn’t mean it is the most important thing of Sukkot, Just that one has to do what the torah commands that’s why I don’t think sitting in the sukkah is the most important thing of Sukkot.
Sukkot
Sitting in the sukkah is not the most important thing of sukkos do you agree?
There are two views of either side of the argument first of all we will discuss why some views hold that sitting in the sukkah is the most important thing of Sukkot.
Some people hold that the main thing of Sukkot is the actual sitting in the sukkah bit, and why do you think the festival is called Sukkot, sukkah is taken out from Sukkot and sukkah means hut and we sit in the hut for 7 days. Others hold why it is the most important thing is because it says in the torah that ‘One shall sit in succah for 7 days’ so that’s why some hold the main thing of Sukkot is to sit in the sukkah.
