About Sukkot (Day 1)

Sukkot is a major Jewish festival that commemorates the forty-year period during which the children of Israel wandered in the desert. In Israel, the first day is a public holiday characterized by special synagogue services and communal meals held in temporary outdoor booths called sukkahs. It serves as both a historical remembrance of the Exodus and a celebration of the autumn agricultural harvest.
