yehoshuaahron, am I missing something. I wrote that the there is no source that the Metzudas Dovid was a descendant of Dovid Hamelech, so you quote the entire (I think) article of Wikipedia, which I referenced, and it makes no mention of it either. You also quote a great-great-nephew of the Tzemach Tzedek saying that the TT’s grandfather was “migeza” the Metzudas Dovid, and then you go on to explain that that means he was somehow related.
Where is the connection to Dovid Hamelech, other than what Chatzkeltodres wrote that the Rashab allegedly said that “we are from Beis Dovid”?
And rebbetzinwhat’shername, the issue isn’t so much not sleeping in the sukkah as in saying that it is the best way of acting when the Gemoro and ALL poskim (including the Baal Hatanya) say otherwise.
The same with eating before Shachris where it is permitted for someone who is feeling weak, and not as a blanket minhag.
