According to Jewish tradition, during the Sukkot holiday, known as the Feast of the Tabernacles, Jews are commanded to bind together a palm frond, or “lulav”, with two other branches, along with an “etrog”, they make up the “four species” used in the rituals. The weeklong holiday begins on Wednesday. (Photo by Sebastian Scheiner/AP Photo)
