Grand Rabbi Leads Unique Sukkot Gathering in Bnei Brak

By כיכר השבת, חיים רוזנבוים
Translated & summarized from Kikar HaShabbat by baba
The story · English

The Grand Rabbi of Temesvar held his "Tish" (a Hasidic gathering around a table) last Saturday night in a Sukkah erected in the courtyard of his synagogue in Bnei Brak. The unique event saw fifteen attendees, each honored with singing one chapter of the "Shir Hama'alot" (Songs of Ascents) psalms. It is customary for Hasidim to recite these fifteen chapters during the Sukkot holiday.

The gathering, described as uplifting, focused on the communal singing of these specific psalms, with each participant taking a turn. The Tish concluded the holiday celebrations for the Hasidic community.
