The Practices of a Yom Tov Sheni While Visiting Eretz Yisrael"},"content":{"rendered":"

As we have seen, if a Diaspora resident comes to visit Eretz Yisrael with no intention of making aliya<\/em>, he must observe a second day of Yom Tov. This includes not performing any melakha<\/em>, reciting the Yom Tov prayers, making kiddush<\/em>, and having festive meals. At first glance, it would seem that he is required to pray in private, as the Sages have stated that one who visits a place that follows a certain practice should not publicly deviate from the local practice. Nevertheless, there is a general consensus among the rabbis of Eretz Yisrael that visitors may form a minyan<\/em> for the Yom Tov Sheni prayer service. Thus there is no harm done to the customs of Eretz Yisrael (Avkat Rokhel<\/em> \u00a726; Kaf Ha-\u1e25ayim<\/em> 496:38).<\/p>\n

On Shemini Atzeret, if a guest from abroad is staying with residents of Eretz Yisrael, he should not eat in the sukka<\/em>, as doing so would involve blatant disregard for local practice. However, if he is in his own apartment or in a hotel, he should eat in a sukka<\/em> on Shemini Atzeret.[11]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

For the sake of a mitzva or a great need, a Diaspora resident may ask a resident of Eretz Yisrael to do melakha<\/em> for him on Yom Tov Sheni. It is a case of shvut di-shvut<\/em> (double rabbinic prohibition) because Yom Tov Sheni itself is of rabbinic origin, and requesting one to do melakha<\/em> is another prohibition on the rabbinic level. However, if there is no great need or mitzva involved, it is forbidden to ask.[12]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n[11]<\/a>. MB 496:13 states that the visitors should pray in private, as the straightforward principle is that one may not deviate from local practice, out of concern for causing discord. However, this principle primarily applies to a case in which the local people forbid something, and any leniency on the part of the guests will influence the locals to be lenient (Avkat Rokh\u1e25el<\/em> \u00a726). Therefore, there is no problem with having a second-day minyan<\/em>, because there is no concern any leniency will result. This is the practice, as is explained in Kaf Ha-\u1e25ayim<\/em> 496:38; Igrot Moshe<\/em>, O\u1e24 5:37:6; Yom Tov Sheni Ke-hilkhato<\/em> 2:2.<\/p>\n

As for sukka<\/em>, there are those who say that a visitor from abroad should sit in a sukka<\/em> on Shemini Atzeret even when he is a guest in an Israeli\u2019s home (Or Le-Tziyon<\/em> 3:23:11; Yom Tov Sheni Ke-hilkhato<\/em> ch. 2, n. 48 citing R. Elyashiv and R. Wosner). Others say that he should not sit in a sukka<\/em>, for two reasons: it is a dishonor to Shemini Atzeret, and it is disrespectful of the local practice (R. Ye\u1e25iel Michel Tikochinsky, Lu\u2019a\u1e25 Eretz Yisrael<\/em>; Min\u1e25at Shlomo<\/em> 1:19:1; Min\u1e25at Yitz\u1e25ak<\/em> 9:54). It would seem that one visiting the home of a resident of Eretz Yisrael should not sit in the sukka<\/em>, whereas if he is alone or in a hotel it is preferable that he does sit in the sukka<\/em>. However, if this is difficult for him, he may rely on those who are lenient. In terms of sleeping in the sukka<\/em>, even in the Diaspora the custom is not to sleep in the sukka<\/em> on Shemini Atzeret (MB 668:6).<\/p>\n

[12]<\/a>. Sha\u2019arei Teshuva<\/em> 496:4 states that just as it is forbidden for a resident of the Diaspora to do melakha<\/em> on Yom Tov Sheni, so too it is forbidden for him to ask a resident of Eretz Yisrael to do melakha<\/em> for him, even though the latter may do melakha<\/em> for himself. This is also the opinion of Pe\u2019at Ha-shul\u1e25an<\/em>, Hilkhot Eretz Yisrael<\/em> 2:15; Min\u1e25at Yitzhak<\/em> 7:34; Igrot Moshe<\/em>, O\u1e24 4:105. In contrast, Min\u1e25at Shlomo<\/em> 1:15:3 is inclined to be lenient, in the same way that one who has accepted Shabbat early may ask one who has not done so to perform melakha<\/em> for him (SA 263:17). In practice, one should be stringent concerning Yom Tov Sheni. Nevertheless, since this is a case of shvut di-shvut<\/em> (keeping a second day of Yom Tov is rabbinic, and so is asking a non-Jew or Jew to do melakha<\/em>), it is permitted for the sake of a mitzva or a great need.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
