May it please You, LORD our God and God of our fathers, that even as I have fulfilled [Your commandment] and dwelled in this sukka, so in the year to come may I be granted the privilege of sitting in the sukka fashioned from Leviathan’s skin.
Commentary Ushpizin, the Aramaic for “guests,” reflects a Jewish mystical tradition that on Sukkot, seven great figures from the biblical age, from Abraham to David, visit us as we sit in the sukka, a different guest entering first each day. Each of the seven figures suffered some form of exile from home to a temporary dwelling, and as we sit in the sukka we remember their fate, their faith and the continuity of the Jewish journey. We also remind ourselves of the importance of hospitality, said by the sages to be “greater even than receiving the Divine Presence” (Shabbat 127a). It is a mitzva to invite guests to join us in the sukka, especially the poor and lonely, in keeping with the command to rejoice on the festivals together with “the stranger, the orphan, and the widow within your gates” (Deut. 16:14; see Maimonides, Laws of Festivals 6:18). The skin of Leviathan: A reference to the saying in the Talmud that at the End of Days, God will make a sukka for the righteous from the skin of Leviathan (Bava Batra 75a).
