Learning on Hashana Rabba

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

Untying the Lulav

  1. It’s not our practice to untie the lulav on Hoshana Rabba. [6]
