From a Place of Purity to a Place of Peace: Yom Kippur to Sukkot

 
«Many have the custom to begin building the Sukkah immediately following the conclusion of Yom Kippur. After fasting and praying all day, they eat something and get to right to work - going from one mitzvah to the next - not delaying or missing the opportunity. It is a labor of love, which expresses the desire to carry over the inspiration of the past twenty-five hours. There is something magical that takes place on these Jerusalem rooftops and balconies, lit by the moon and stars. Here in Har Nof, you can hear hammering (and singing!) well into the night. It's an intense ending to an intense day.»
