<DIV><BR><EM>Q: How is The Mitzvah of Sukkah so unique [almost] - in that it
shares a<BR>quality in common with only 1 other mitzvah nowadays.<BR><BR>A: Just
like the Mikvah, the Sukkah encompasses our entire body. In the time<BR>of the
Temple , we could experience being encompassed by the sanctity of the<BR>Bet
Hamikdash, now we have only Mikvah and Sukkah.<BR></EM>--<BR></DIV>
<DIV>I believe it was Rav Kook ZT"L who noted that Sukkah and Yishuv Eretz
Yisrael are the only Mitzvot which one fulfills even with the mud on ones
shoes.</DIV>
