Hoshanot

  1. The seventh day of Sukkot is also called Hoshana Rabba. On Hashana Rabba, it is the custom of many communities to say extra Hoshanot (prayer said while holding the lulav and etrog) and to circle the Teyva seven times. [1]

Learning on Hoshana Rabba

  1. It’s the practice of Israel to learn on the night of Hoshana Rabba and some stay up all night. [2] It’s proper to read the Seder Leil Hoshana Rabba (printed in some machzorim) which includes reading Sefer Devarim, Midrash Rabba on Vezot HaBracha, and then Tehillim. [3]
  2. One who stays up all night should make all the Birchot HaShachar in the morning except for Netilat Yadayim. [4]
  3. Someone who stayed up all night may say Brachot HaTorah only after Olot HaShachar pasted. [5]
  4. It’s the Sephardic minhag to say Hashem Hu HaElokim prior to Hashem Melech in Shacharit and to add Shir HaMaalot after Yishtabach. [6]
  5. During the day of Hoshana Rabbah, one should read Parashat Vizot Haberacha shnayim mikra viechad targum. [7]

Untying the Lulav

  1. It’s not our practice to untie the lulav on Hoshana Rabba. [8]
  2. However, if one wants to untie the egged around the lulav one should only untie it after one fulfilled the mitzvah already. [9]

Eating after the ninth hour

  1. One shouldn't have a (bread) meal after the ninth hour (in halachic hours) in the day just like every Erev Yom Tov. See Kavod and Oneg Yom Tov and Not eating on Erev Shabbat. [10]

Beating the Aravot

See the Beating the Aravot page.
