This highlights further the tremendous significance that this Mitzva has, since not only does it teach us to increase Ahavas Yisroel, but when we do so, it connects us all together and we reach the incredible level of being able to bring atonement for each other. And so, especially on Sukkos, the Torah gives us Mitzvas Arbah Minim and Chazal reveal its connection to Ahavas Yisroel so that by strengthening this precious Limud now, the effect of the Ahavas Yisroel that we gain during these days can impact us during the rest of the year too, thus assuring that we remain an “Aguda Achas” throughout the year! The Lulav represents the spine - this teaches a person to avoid haughtiness and to act with humility - to bend down and pay attention to others, as the Ramban in his letter points out: “And every person should be greater than you in your eyes”. As a result of this influence, the beautiful Middos of Klal Yisroel become tarnished and dimmed and we find it more difficult to display Ahavas Yisroel to each other since the bad Middos of haughtiness, jealousy, Loshon Hora, etc. The Hadasim symbolise the eyes and the importance of avoiding improper sights which bring to sin and jealousy and the Arovoh represents the lips - the need to avoid inappropriate speech which causes friction amongst people. The question is, why in particular during the Yom Tov of Sukkos does the Torah give us a Mitzva of Arbah Minim which has the potential within it to vastly improve our Ahavas Yisroel and enable us to become an Aguda Achas? One of the Gedolei Yisroel who was sitting next to Reb Chaim Ozer asked him, “Why did you show such honour to the Tchortkover Rebbe?” Reb Chaim Ozer replied, “The Masechtos of Shas are divided into different Mitzvos.
