Photos: Israeli Leaders Make Special Sukkot Blessings
Kfar Chabad Mayor Rabbi Yami Lifshitz gave Israeli President Shimon Peres a set of the Four Species to make a special blessing in the presidential sukkah in Jerusalem.
Chabad-Lubavitch representatives in Israel brought holiday cheer to the country’s leading governmental figures, giving leaders from across the political spectrum the chance to make a special blessing on a combination of a palm branch, willow branches, myrtle twigs and a citron – collectively known as the Four Species.
