A Geshmaka Question & Readers Answers

A Geshmaka Sukkos Question:

Sukkos is called Zman Simchaseinu, the time of our joy. Why is Sukkos specifically such a happy time?

Last week's Geshmake Question:

Chazal say (Yoma 86b) that if one does teshuvah out of love of Hashem, all his sins turn into mitzvos. Question: That is amazing! But why is that?

Shmuel Chaim Tsibushkin Answers:

I heard from Reb Naftoli Rosenshein, because internalizing that we made a mistake and really feeling bad about it is the biggest Kiddush Hashem!

S. R. Answers:

His sin led him to do teshuvah and grow closer to Hashem. By learning from his mistakes, he becomes a better person, making the sin part of his journey.
