News 14 Personalities Observe Sukkot Rituals

Translated & summarized from Now 14 by baba
The story · English

Ahead of and during the Sukkot holiday, presenters and reporters from the Israeli news channel News 14 shared documentation of their observance of the "Four Species" ritual. This tradition involves taking a lulav (palm branch), etrog (citron), hadas (myrtle), and aravah (willow) together and waving them.

The holiday, which lasts seven days (excluding Shabbat), sees this commandment performed daily. News 14 personalities including Dana Varon, Noam Amir, Ido Tauber, and Sarah Bak shared photos from their sukkahs, while reporters Yehuda Aharoni, Yael Anker, Gal Tobi, and Ariel Idan posted pictures of themselves performing the lulav-waving ritual.

Even those who were at the channel's studio during the holiday did not forgo the commandment. Anchor Tal Meir shared a photo of herself with the Four Species, humorously captioning it "Perfection after the broadcast." Digital reporter Dor Azrad also visited the channel's sukkah to fulfill the mitzvah.
