The Sukkah Is Your House For The Week Of Sukkot

Now in the beginning you don't know what you're doing. First time you do it, second time you do it, you still don't know. So in the beginning, anything you do is good. But as you grow into it, you start doing it for longer, you know, see that you want to invest more into it. Why? Because in essence, what it's really supposed to be, it's supposed to be a replacement of your house for a week. So that's really it's supposed to have everything you have in your house. Everything you have in your house. The would literally have even a bathroom in it. Everything would be in it. They wouldn't leave it for a week. They wouldn't get go outside even. They would pray in there. They would learn there. They would eat. They would go to the bathroom there. Everything there. Now, under good conditions where once our mitzvah, it's not going to rain at all. Not going to rain at all. Unfortunately, this is the time during the year where normal nature normal nature like as if there's anything other than normal. This is a rainy season everywhere in the world. It's rainy season. So we pray once our it's not going to rain on us. Let it rain everywhere else. There's not on us in our uh and uh you know it's it's important that uh it doesn't rain at least during the first couple of nights uh when you're having kush because if it rains and rain's going to go inside your suka, you can't enjoy it. You can't eat in the suka. And the says that if it rains during that uh during those uh that night um of the kdouch and it doesn't stop. If it just rains for an hour or two and then it stops then you wait and you have the kush. But if it's getting to a point where it's raining raining and it's not planning it's not stopping already. It's getting to the point where it's going into the next day you have to do the kush inside the house and that's it. And that's not a good sign if it's on the first night. Why? It means that Hashem doesn't want your mit. So you shouldn't pray. Sometimes people say, "Oh, I can't. Hopefully it rains so we can eat at home. It's much nicer in the house." No, no. Don't pray for that. It's a very bad sign. Very bad sign. Um, so thing is is that guys need to sleep in a suka. Um, now that's the second thing. Uh, the happiness sleeping in a suka. Third thing is you have to have the minim.
