Description
Today’s Daf Yomi pages, Sukkah 37 and 38, raise the age-old question: Why do we shake the lulav and etrog on Sukkot? Isn't simply lifting them enough? Rabbi Dovid Bashevkin joins us to explain the mystical symbolism behind these acts, and how they help us imagine that the whole world is one body, begging God for mercy. What does that have to do with the practice of many religious Jews to sway back and forth as they pray? Listen and find out.
