“Sukkot and Housing Justice 5784” is a downloadable guide to help us explore issues of housing justice during Sukkot. It includes Jewish sources from the Torah, the Prophets, and the Talmud examining the intersections of Sukkot and housing justice.

Many of the sources also include guiding questions to help you understand and dive deeper into what the text is trying to say.
