U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee was presented with an unusually large Chazon Ish etrog during a special meeting at the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem ahead of Sukkos.

The etrog was presented by Duvi Honig, founder and CEO of the Orthodox Jewish Chamber of Commerce, together with Rabbi Chaim Michoel Gutterman, a co-founder of the Shuvu educational network. The presentation was made as an expression of appreciation for Huckabee's support for the Jewish people.

During the presentation, Honig explained the symbolism associated with the etrog and told Huckabee, “You have a heart as big as this etrog.” Rabbi Gutterman also discussed the significance of the etrog remaining on its tree through the changing seasons.

Huckabee reacted with surprise to the oversized etrog, saying he had never seen anything like it. During the meeting, he also heard about Shuvu's educational activities and expressed interest in visiting the network's schools.
