Succos - Gog Umagog Brings Order
Listen now
Description
Why is the war of Gog Umagog (Armageddon) associated with the holiday of Succos, such that we read to Haftaros from sections in Tanach that speak of it? Why do the Romans and Persians claim that they helped the Jewish people in their exile, when in truth they only helped themselves? Why do they get the mitzvah of Succah and then kick it as they leave because of the heat? What is the idea of the Clouds of Hashem's Glory which accompanied us in the wilderness, and will protect us in the future time of Moshiach? Why is the idea of the Simchas Beis Hasho'eva (rejoicing in the water drawing) a central theme of Succos, and how does it relate to the future time when men and women are in separate groups as they mourn for the death of Moshiach ben Yosef? Find out in this week's Parsha Podcast.
