<div class="co_body article-body cf"><section><p>Chaque jour de Soukkot (excepté Chabbat) nous prenons les <b><i><span class="glossary_item" glossary_item="33134">Arba Minim</span></i></b>, c’est-à-dire les <b>« Quatre Espèces »</b>. Soukkot est une fête de sept jours qui commence le 15 Tichri et s’achève le 21 Tichri.</p>
</section><section><h2>Que sont les Quatre Espèces ?</h2>
<p>Les Quatre Espèces sont une branche de <b>palmier (<i>loulav</i>)</b>, deux branches de <b>saule (<i><span class="glossary_item" glossary_item="38998">aravot</span></i>)</b>, un minimum de trois branches de <b>myrte (<i><span class="glossary_item" glossary_item="36296">hadassim</span></i>)</b> et un <b>cédrat (<i>étrog</i>)</b>. Les trois premières espèces sont soigneusement assemblées (votre vendeur de <i><a href="/library/article_cdo/aid/609564/jewish/The-Lulav-and-Etrog-The-Four-Kinds.htm" title="The Lulav and Etrog: The Four Kinds">Arba Minim</a></i> peut les assembler pour vous). <a href="/library/article_cdo/aid/975315/jewish/Le-bouquet-des-quatre-espces.htm" title="Le bouquet des quatre espèces">Cliquez ici</a> pour un guide sur la manière d’attacher le <i>loulav</i>.</p>
<p>Les sets de <i>Arba Minim</i> vendus sur le marché ne sont pas tous cashers. Demandez conseil à votre rabbin. Et traitez votre set avec les plus grands égards, ce sont des objets fragiles !</p>
<p>La mitsva des Arba Minim est une obligation pour les hommes. Pour les femmes, elle est facultative, mais encouragée. Le meilleur endroit pour l’accomplir est dans la <i>souccah</i>, la cabane construite pour la fête.</p>
</section><section><h2>Le geste et la prière</h2>
<p>Tenez le <i>loulav</i> dans votre main droite (sauf si vous êtes gaucher), son épine dorsale tournée vers vous. Tournez-vous vers l’est et dites :</p>
<div align="center" class="imagetable w96 margin05 widen" width="455" >
<img src="https://w2.chabad.org/media/images/139627.jpg?_i=_nD6C4982354E8EEFCFE3232F48C6DC268" srcset="https://w2.chabad.org/media/images/139627.jpg?_i=_nD6C4982354E8EEFCFE3232F48C6DC268 455w" sizes="(min-width: 768px) 455px, 100vw" loading="lazy" />
</div>
<p><i>Baroukh ata Ado-naï Elo-hénou melekh haolam achère kidéchanou bemitsvotav, vétsivanou <b>al nétilat Loula</b></i><b>v</b></p>
<p><i>Béni sois-Tu Éternel notre D.ieu, Roi du monde, qui nous a sanctifié par Ses commandements et nous a commandé de prendre le Loulav.</i></p>
<p> Prenez ensuite l’<i>étrog</i> dans votre main gauche.</p>
<span><sl-divider size="large"></sl-divider><span class="pullquote">Traitez votre set avec les plus grands égards, ce sont des objets fragiles !</span><sl-divider size="large"></sl-divider></span>
<p>[Si c’est le premier jour de Soukkot (ou la première fois pendant Soukkot que vous faites la mitsva), dites maintenant :</p>
<div align="center" class="imagetable w96 margin05 widen" width="455" >
<img src="https://w2.chabad.org/media/images/139626.jpg?_i=_nD6C4982354E8EEFCFE3232F48C6DC268" srcset="https://w2.chabad.org/media/images/139626.jpg?_i=_nD6C4982354E8EEFCFE3232F48C6DC268 455w" sizes="(min-width: 768px) 455px, 100vw" loading="lazy" />
</div>
<p><i>Baroukh ata Ado-naï Elo-hénou melekh haolam <b>chéhé'héyanou vékiyémanou véhiguiyanou lizmane hazéh</b></i></p>
<p><i>Béni sois-Tu Éternel notre D.ieu, Roi du monde, qui nous a fait vivre, nous a fait exister et nous a fait parvenir à ce moment.</i>]</p>
<p>Rassemblez le <i>loulav</i> et l’<i>étrog</i> et secouez-les, vous avez fait la mitsva !</p>
<p>La coutume est cependant d’agiter les <i>Arba Minim</i> dans les six directions : vers le sud, vers le nord, vers l’est, vers le haut, vers le bas et vers l’ouest. <a href="/library/article_cdo/aid/751704/jewish/Comment-balancer-le-Loulav-guide-illustr.htm" title="Comment balancer le Loulav: guide illustré">Cliquez ici</a> pour un guide illustré sur la façon d’agiter les Quatre Espèces.</p>
<p>Prenez avec vous vos <i>Arba Minim</i> à la synagogue pour les offices du matin durant Soukkot. Nous les agitons de nouveau durant la prière du <span class="glossary_item" glossary_item="39146">Hallel</span> et les prenons pour faire le tour de la synagogue lors de la cérémonie des Hochaanot.</p>
<p>Si vous ne l’avez pas faite le matin, vous pouvez accomplir cette mitsva chaque jour de Soukkot – excepté le Chabbat – tant qu’il fait encore jour.</p>
</section><section><h2>Le sens du Loulav</h2>
<p>L’unité juive est l’un des principaux thèmes de Soukkot. Les Quatre Espèces que vous tenez symbolisent quatre types de Juifs, ayant différents niveaux de connaissance de la <span class="glossary_item" glossary_item="39995">Torah</span> et de pratique des mitsvot. Les rassembler exprime l’unité de notre nation, au-delà de nos différences. Ainsi, dans cet esprit d’unité, veillez à faire profiter de vos <i>Arba Minim</i> vos amis et voisins juifs !</p>
<p>Remarque : les deux premiers jours de Soukkot, la mistva ne peux être accomplie qu’en utilisant ses <i>propres</i> Quatre Espèces. Dès lors, si l’on est amené à utiliser le set de quelqu’un d’autre, celui-ci doit vous être donné « en cadeau, à la condition qu’il soit restitué ». Vous pouvez alors utiliser ce set – qui vous appartient donc –, puis ensuite vous le rendez, en cadeau, à son propriétaire d’origine.</p></section></div>
