If you are looking to add a new depth to your appreciation of the Shalosh Regalim and enhance your yom tov observance, or just need a yom tov-themed sefer to read during hakafos please consider "The Tripod: A New Perspective on the Shalosh Regalim"
The Tripod presents an analysis of Pesach, Shavuos, and Sukkos and how they work together as a unit to communicate some of the fundamentals of Judaism.
It has earned high praise from both its readers and prominent Rabbonim, Including Rabbi Jacob J Schacter who called the work an “outstanding, extraordinary original and creative analysis of the role the Shalosh Regalim play in representing the most fundamental elements of Jewish faith,” and Neil’s mom who has called the sefer a “must read”.
