This is a Hebrew title:

What is the significance of the lulav, sukkah, and shofar in the context of the Temple—and without it? How do we commemorate “those days” in our times? Are women truly exempt from all “time-bound positive commandments”? And why isn’t every day Shabbat?
These questions, along with many others regarding the Jewish festivals, are explored with fresh and profound insight in this book. MeOhel Moed Limei Moed (From Tent of Meeting to Festival Times), the first book published by a Matan Kitvuni fellow, takes readers on a journey through the three Torah realms that shaped the Jewish holidays: Scripture, the Mishnah, and Midrashic literature. The Rabbanit Dr. Adina Sternberg uncovers the exciting treasures hidden within these sources, drawing surprising and relevant meanings for today.
Readers are invited on a scholarly, spiritual journey through the Jewish calendar. After foundational discussions clarifying the relationship between Shabbat and Yom Tov and the essence of pilgrimage, the book explores the majesty of the High Holidays, the dynamics of winter festivals, and the nostalgic charm of spring and summer celebrations. At each stage, the book examines the observance of these holidays in Temple times and beyond, enriching the contemporary understanding and experience of these sacred days.
Rabbanit Dr. Adina Sternberg is a lecturer in Bible and Talmud at Matan, the Bar-Ilan Midrasha, and other institutions. She is a graduate of women’s Torah study programs, holds a PhD in Talmud from Bar-Ilan University, and is a fellow of the inaugural cohort of the "Kitvuni" program at Matan.
