 Q & A Hoshana Rabba



The Intermediate Days

The third through the seventh days of Sukkot, are called Chol Hamoed -- the intermediate days. Only very necessary work should be done.

Throughout the seven days of the Festival, we continue our celebration in the Sukkah, in ever-increasing exhilaration.

Just as the seven solemn days between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur served to make amends for each week of the previous year, so the seven joyous days of Sukkot will bring us happiness in all the weeks of the year to come.
