Sukkot: Ushpizin (Guests) & Jewish Hospitality

This amusing and informative video (05:22) by Rabbi John Carrier of Reform Burbank Temple Emanuel introduces the origins and significance of the Jewish value of hospitality throughout the year, and especially on the holiday of Sukkot, where we have a Kabbalisitic tradition of inviting Ushpizin – different Jewish patriarchs to symbolically visit our Sukkah on each night of the festival.
