Hilkhot Mo'adim Understanding the Laws of the Festivals edition by David Brofsky Religion Spirituality eBooks
Too often halacha l'maaseh books are written with a specific hashkafic agenda at the expense of the depth and nuance of the halachic process. R. Brofsky has no fear of presenting his opinion while at the same time raising other practices, issues, or minhagim. He does not leave these disputes for the footnotes, but presents them in the body of his work. He is able to accomplish this while also leaving his sefer very readable for someone who is looking for a good overview of the chagim and moadim.Product details

I purchased Hilkhot Mo'adim by Rabbi David Brofsky a year or so ago, and it is one of my favorite books to use as a review prior to a holiday. Like his book, Hilchot Tefillah, the author discusses the origin of the holiday, the different perspectives of the poskim (rabbis who decide Jewish law), and the law's practical application. Aside from being elegantly written, the book is also compact and easily portable. You will appreciate this book if you like intellectually stimulating, but brief (though not watered down), discussions pertaining to the subject matter.
This is great and helps understand the background of the halachos on the discussed topics.
Excellent overview, has really enhanced my moadim experience. It's a breath of fresh air.
