The sukkah and Who protects — as Rabbi Landau teaches it
By Rabbi Shalom Landau.
Rabbi Landau teaches that sukkos and Shabbos, Rabbi Landau teaches, say the same thing in two ways. Shabbos says stop working and remember Who provides. The sukkah says step outside the house you built and remember Who protects. You still work and you still show up. The hustle is not the source. He also teaches that everyone comes for the coronation, and Sukkos is when the King says stay.
