Sukkot, the seven-day Jewish festival with origins as a celebration for the harvest, is ending today. One of the icons of Sukkot is the sukkah, a temporary hut built just for the week of Sukkot, reminiscent of the structures the Israelites built during their 40 years in the desert, following their exodus from Egypt. Here, we’ve put up ten iPhone photographs we took while biking around in Crown Heights and Williamsburg, home to large Jewish populations. You’ll notice that Jews carry around leafy branches and lemons with them during Sukkot. These come from a commandment from Moses: “On the first day you shall take the product of hadar trees, branches of palm trees, boughs of leafy trees, and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days”.
