When we think about it, we will see that it continues this way throughout the year; it’s so often this way. The Yamim Nora’im and the rest of Tishrei are similarly so. These are days of such greatness and awe.... Indeed, there are kehillos where even working yungeleit sit in shul learning from morning till night and don’t even go to work.... Formerly, there were Yidden who sojourned in Miron from Elul until Yom Kippur, sitting and toiling in Torah and avodah.
But the usual way that the Ribbono shel Olam designed the world, with families, with hassles, is that precisely the days of Tishrei bring with them tremendous irritations and busyness. Here, one must purchase an esrog... then there are other myriads of preparations for Yom Tov—and this is how we go into Yom Tov. What is the peshat in this?
