The Ten Elders - In addition to King David, there is a tradition (BT Bava Batra 14:B) that ten elders wrote and contributed portions of the book of Psalms …
Placing the willow around the Altar ...
Trumpet and Shofar Blalsts ...

Drawing Down the Spirit of Prophecy ...
Balconies in the Women’s Court ...
Prophecies of the End of Days ...
The Final Judgment and Sukkot ...
