מוגן מבחוץ

בָּיִת וּלְמִקְנֵהוּ עָשָׂה סֻכֹּת עַל־כֵּן קָרָא שֵׁם־הַמָּקוֹם סֻכּוֹת׃ (בראשית לג:יז) חז"ל אומרים לנו שהמילה "סוכות" בפסוק הנ"ל מתייחסת לסוכת החג. שואל השם משמואל: "מדוע יעקב קרא את שם המקום על פי מקום המקנה ולא על פי מקום האנשים? יותר מזה, האם זה אומר שחג הסוכות שלנו חוגג את המקום בו שמר את מקנהו? האם לא [...]
