Dwell in the Sukkah for all seven days of Sukkot.
This mitzvah commands Jews to dwell in a sukkah during the seven days of Sukkot. Dwelling means eating, drinking, and spending significant time in the sukkah, treating it as one’s primary home. The sukkah recalls the booths in which the Israelites lived after leaving Egypt or, according to another tradition, the Clouds of Glory that surrounded and protected them in the wilderness. By sitting in the sukkah, Jews demonstrate gratitude for Hashem’s protection and reaffirm trust in His shelter.
