A temporary shelter used during Sukkot, recalling the Israelites’ shelters in the wilderness.
Used by Eduqas
Paper 3
Revise: FestivalsFamilies build a sukkah, a temporary booth with a roof of plant material through which the stars can be seen. They eat meals there, and some also sleep there. Leviticus 23:42–43 connects living in booths with teaching future generations about the Israelites’ departure from Egypt.
Link each practice to its meaning: for example, bitter herbs recall the bitterness of slavery, while eating in a sukkah expresses dependence on God.
