Sefer Matteh Efraim is a fundamental book on the laws and customs of the Yamim Noraim. The sefer contains detailed instructions for customs spanning the month of Elul through the end of Succos, and is widely accepted by Ashkenazic communities–Lithuanian and Chassidic alike. It is regarded as the primary source of the laws and customs of the High Holidays and Festival of Succos and is one of the main sources of the Mishnah Berurah on these halachos.
